About Types of Malware
GoConqr OriginalWhat the resources cover
The page brings together different ways to study types of malware. The flashcard deck Malware and its types includes worms, spyware, adware and rootkits. Computer Security: Types of Malware also lists viruses, trojans, backdoors, keyloggers and ransomware. These decks give you terms to work through alongside the page's mind maps and quizzes.
One mind map focuses on trojans, including how they can infect a computer and problems they can cause, such as stealing personal details. Other maps on the page include Host malware: Worm and Computer Viruses.
Where to start
Begin with the flashcards in Malware and its types to get familiar with the terms. Then use Computer Security: Types of Malware to work through a wider list. As you study, note which terms you can explain and which you want to look at again.
Next, turn to a mind map. The trojan map offers a closer look at one type, while the maps titled Types of Malware provide another format for exploring the topic. Compare the terms you see with those in the flashcards.
Combine maps and quizzes
After looking at a map, try Malware quiz. Use the questions to check what you can recall, then return to the flashcards or a map to study terms you want to revisit. The page also lists a quiz called Rootkit if you want to focus on that named topic.
Place the topic in the unit
Types of Malware is a section of the Malware unit in Cybersecurity. The resources let you approach this section through both broad lists of terms and material focused on a particular type. Choose a map or deck from the page to continue studying.
