Lesson Overview

3.9 – Understanding Malware, Ransomware, and Viruses: Malware is a broad term for software designed to harm, steal, or disrupt systems. Ransomware locks users out of their files until payment is made, while viruses replicate and spread through networks like digital infections. These programs exploit weaknesses in outdated software, unsafe downloads, or careless clicks. Recognizing warning signs—slow performance, strange pop-ups, or blocked access—can help stop damage early. Anti-malware tools work best when paired with smart behavior: avoid suspicious sites, and keep systems patched. Ransomware defense requires regular backups stored offline so data can be restored without paying attackers. For organizations, one infected device can quickly paralyze operations if prevention isn’t prioritized. Understanding how malware functions builds resilience because fear is replaced with preparedness. Awareness and routine maintenance create a clean digital environment where intrusions lose their power.
