Antivirus Software: utilize reputable antivirus or anti-malware software that employs signature-based detection, behavior analysis, and heuristics to identify and remove malicious code;
-
Behavioral Analysis: monitor system behavior for unusual or malicious activities, such as unauthorized access, file modifications, or network communication;
-
Endpoint Protection: implement endpoint protection solutions that detect and block malware at the device level, preventing infections before they occur.
You may know about viruses and trojans - all these threats are types of malware.
Virus - malicious code that attaches itself to clean files and spreads when the infected file is executed.
Trojan - a type of malicious software that disguises itself as legitimate or beneficial software allowing unauthorized access.
