About malware flashcards

GoConqr Original

Choosing malware flashcards

Start with Malware Flashcards for a set that brings together terms such as Trojan horse, worm, virus and ransomware. It also includes rootkits and zero-day attacks, so you can return to it as your vocabulary grows.

For a question-led set, try Software Vulnerabilities. Its cards ask how malware is categorised and how it can spread, alongside questions about payloads, viruses, worms and Trojans. Use them to check which terms you can explain without looking.

Working through a set

Go through the cards once, then revisit the terms or questions you found difficult. Compare the topics in different sets: Computer Security: Types of Malware includes browser hijacking and keyloggers, while Risk Management 5 asks about malware classification and attack kits.

When you want to see ideas laid out together, switch to a mind map on the unit page. A quiz can give you a different way to check your recall. Choose a set and work through the cards at your own pace.
