00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:10.480
In the current technological era, coming

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:12.320
across different computer problems

00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:14.320
related to malware and cyber tax is

00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:15.360
common.

00:00:15.360 --> 00:00:17.840
According to AV test institute, there are

00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:19.840
more than one billion malware programs

00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:20.960
available.

00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:23.039
And new malware programs are detected

00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:24.560
regularly.

00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:26.480
Hi guys, and welcome to yet another

00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:28.640
interesting video by simply learn but

00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:30.640
before we begin. If you love watching

00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:33.280
tech videos, subscribe to our channel and

00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:34.960
hit the bell icon to never miss an

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:36.800
update.

00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:39.360
In this video, we'll understand what is a

00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:41.280
malware program?

00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:43.920
Then, we'll see what exactly are viruses

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:45.520
and trojans.

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:47.520
Then, we will see how they operate in a

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:49.120
system.

00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:51.120
And then different types of viruses and

00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:52.800
trojan,

00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.719
and how to detect the activity of such

00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.000
programs.

00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.079
And lastly, we will see how to prevent

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:00.160
our system from getting infected by such

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:02.719
programs.

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:05.280
Malware is a malicious software that is

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.280
programmed to cause damage to a computer.

00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:10.479
System network and hardware devices.

00:01:10.479 --> 00:01:12.479
Many malicious programs like trojan

00:01:12.479 --> 00:01:14.640
viruses worms and bots which cause

00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:16.560
damage to the system are known as

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:19.040
malware. Most of the malware programs are

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.119
designed to steal information from the

00:01:21.119 --> 00:01:22.640
targeted user

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:25.280
or to steal money from the target by

00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:27.920
stealing sensitive data.

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.840
Let's take a look at the introduction

00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.479
for two different types of malware virus,

00:01:32.479 --> 00:01:35.040
and trojan.

00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:38.159
Firstly, let's take a look what exactly

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:40.479
is a virus program.

00:01:40.479 --> 00:01:42.640
A computer virus is a type of malicious

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.880
program that on execution replicates

00:01:44.880 --> 00:01:45.920
itself.

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.159
They get attached to different files and

00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:50.320
programs, which are termed as host

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:53.040
programs by inserting their code. If the

00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:55.600
attachment succeeds, the targeted program

00:01:55.600 --> 00:01:57.840
is termed as infected with a computer

00:01:57.840 --> 00:01:58.880
virus.

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:00.640
Now, let's take a look at the trojan

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:01.840
horse.

00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:04.159
Trojan horse program is a program that

00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:06.880
disguises itself as a legitimate program,

00:02:06.880 --> 00:02:09.520
but harms the system on installation.

00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:11.440
They hide within the attachments and

00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:13.760
emails then transfer from one system to

00:02:13.760 --> 00:02:16.400
another they create bad doors into a

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:18.800
system to allow the cyber criminal to

00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.520
steal our information.

00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.280
Let's take a look how they function

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.520
after getting installed into our system.

00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.080
Firstly, we have virus programs the

00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.400
computer virus must contain two parts to

00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:34.000
infect the system.

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.720
First is a surge routine which locates

00:02:36.720 --> 00:02:38.560
new files and data that is to be

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:41.040
infected by the virus program.

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:43.120
And the second part is known as the copy

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.440
routine, which is necessary for the

00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:48.080
program to copy itself into the targeted

00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:50.560
file, which is located by the search

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:52.400
routine now let's take a look at the

00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:54.640
trojan horse functioning

00:02:54.640 --> 00:02:56.720
for trojan horses entryway into our

00:02:56.720 --> 00:02:59.440
system is through emails that may look

00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:01.200
legitimate, but may have unknown

00:03:01.200 --> 00:03:03.680
attachments. And when such files are

00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.080
downloaded into the device, the trojan

00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.159
program gets installed and infects the

00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:09.920
system.

00:03:09.920 --> 00:03:11.840
They also infect the system on the

00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:14.159
execution of infected application or the

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:17.599
executable file and attacks the system.

00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:19.840
Now, that we understand what virus and

00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:22.239
trojans are let's understand different

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:25.840
types of virus androgens.

00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:27.599
Let's take a look at different types of

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:28.959
viruses.

00:03:28.959 --> 00:03:30.720
The first one is known as the booth

00:03:30.720 --> 00:03:33.280
sector virus. This type of virus damages

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.519
the booting section of the system by

00:03:35.519 --> 00:03:37.680
infecting the master bot record, which is

00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.680
also known as MBR.

00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.239
This damages the boot sector section by

00:03:42.239 --> 00:03:45.360
targeting the hard disk of the system.

00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.000
Then we have the macro virus.

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:50.640
Micro virus is a type of virus that gets

00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:53.360
embedded into the document related data,

00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:56.080
and is executed when the file is opened.

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:57.920
They also are designed to replicate

00:03:57.920 --> 00:04:00.319
themselves, and infect the system on a

00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:02.000
larger scale.

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.319
And lastly, we have the direct action

00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:06.159
virus.

00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:08.080
This type of virus gets attached to

00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:10.720
executable files, which on execution

00:04:10.720 --> 00:04:12.879
activates the virus program and infects

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.760
the system. Once the infection of the

00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:18.799
file is completed, they exit the system

00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:21.359
which is also the reason it is known as

00:04:21.359 --> 00:04:23.520
a non-resident virus.

00:04:23.520 --> 00:04:25.199
Let's take a look at different types of

00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.360
trojans.

00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:29.520
The first type of trojan is the backdoor

00:04:29.520 --> 00:04:30.800
trojan.

00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:32.800
They are designed to create a backdoor

00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:34.880
in the system on execution of an

00:04:34.880 --> 00:04:36.720
infected program.

00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.360
They provide remote access of our system

00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:41.360
to the hacker. This way, the cyber

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.759
criminal can steal our system data and

00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.000
may use it for illegal activities. Next,

00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:47.280
we have

00:04:47.280 --> 00:04:49.440
quick source trojan.

00:04:49.440 --> 00:04:51.199
They enter the system by clicking the

00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.440
random pop-ups which we come across on

00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:54.720
the internet.

00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.400
They attempt a user to give their

00:04:56.400 --> 00:04:58.320
personal details for different

00:04:58.320 --> 00:05:00.720
transactions or schemes,

00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:03.199
which may provide remote access of a

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:05.919
system to the cyber criminal.

00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:08.240
And the last trojan type is ransom

00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:09.280
trojan.

00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:11.360
This type of trojan program after

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:14.000
entering the system blocks the user from

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.120
accessing

00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.759
its own system. And also affects the

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:19.759
system functioning

00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:22.080
the cyber criminal demands a ransom from

00:05:22.080 --> 00:05:24.800
the targeted user for the removal of the

00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:27.199
trojan program from the device.

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:28.880
Now, that we understand some details

00:05:28.880 --> 00:05:31.199
regarding viruses and trojan, let's solve

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:32.880
a question.

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:35.440
The question is Jake was denied access

00:05:35.440 --> 00:05:37.280
to his system, and he wasn't able to

00:05:37.280 --> 00:05:39.120
control the data and information in his

00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:41.039
system.

00:05:41.039 --> 00:05:42.080
Now,

00:05:42.080 --> 00:05:44.160
the actual question is what could be the

00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:46.560
reason behind his system's problem?

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.520
Option A: macro virus, Option B: ransom

00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:52.560
trojan, Option C: backward version.

00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.840
Give your answers in the comment section.

00:05:55.840 --> 00:05:58.080
Now, let's understand how to detect the

00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:00.240
activity of viruses and trojan in our

00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:02.400
system

00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:04.639
to detect virus or trojan activity in a

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:06.800
system, we can refer to the following

00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:07.680
points

00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:09.440
for viruses. We have

00:06:09.440 --> 00:06:11.680
slowing down of the system and frequent

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:13.680
application freeze shows that the

00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.840
infection of the virus is present in the

00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:17.360
system.

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.400
Then, we have the viruses can also steal

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:22.800
sensitive data including passwords,

00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:24.240
account details,

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:26.800
which may lead to unexpected log out

00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:28.800
from the accounts or corruption of the

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.400
sensitive data.

00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:32.880
And lastly, we have frequent system

00:06:32.880 --> 00:06:35.360
crashes due to virus infection which

00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:38.000
damages the operating system.

00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:40.000
For trojan, we have frequent system

00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.319
crashes and system also faces slow

00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:44.080
reaction time.

00:06:44.080 --> 00:06:46.240
Then, we have there are more random

00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.400
pop-ups from the system which may

00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:50.479
indicate trojan activity.

00:06:50.479 --> 00:06:52.800
And lastly, we have modification in the

00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:54.800
system application and change of the

00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:56.960
desktop appearance can be also due to

00:06:56.960 --> 00:07:00.000
the infection of a trojan program.

00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.479
Next, let's take a look at a famous cyber

00:07:02.479 --> 00:07:06.720
attack for virus and a trojan horse.

00:07:07.520 --> 00:07:09.280
For virus, we have

00:07:09.280 --> 00:07:11.840
the my doom virus which was identified

00:07:11.840 --> 00:07:14.880
in the ER 2004, which affected over 50

00:07:14.880 --> 00:07:17.599
million systems by creating a network of

00:07:17.599 --> 00:07:19.680
sending spam emails,

00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:22.400
which was to gain backdoor access into

00:07:22.400 --> 00:07:24.160
our systems.

00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.560
Next for the trojan horse, we have the

00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:28.639
emote trojan program

00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:30.800
which is specifically designed for

00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.199
financial theft and for stealing bank

00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:35.599
related information.

00:07:35.599 --> 00:07:37.759
Next, we have few points for how to

00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:40.319
prevent virus entry or trojan attack for

00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:42.800
a system.

00:07:42.960 --> 00:07:45.520
The most basic way of virus protection

00:07:45.520 --> 00:07:47.919
is to using antivirus and do regular

00:07:47.919 --> 00:07:49.199
viruses can

00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:50.960
this will prevent virus entry in the

00:07:50.960 --> 00:07:52.960
system, and also having more than one

00:07:52.960 --> 00:07:54.960
antivirus provides much better

00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:57.199
protectionm

00:07:57.199 --> 00:07:59.759
then avoid visiting uncertified websites

00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.240
can also prevent virus entry into our

00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:04.639
systemm

00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:07.039
then we have

00:08:07.039 --> 00:08:09.440
using regular driver updates and system

00:08:09.440 --> 00:08:12.080
updates to prevent virus entry for

00:08:12.080 --> 00:08:15.199
trojan. We have using certified softwares

00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:17.759
from legal sites to prevent any trojan

00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:20.080
activity in our system,

00:08:20.080 --> 00:08:22.479
and also avoid clicking random pop-ups

00:08:22.479 --> 00:08:25.039
that we often see on the internet

00:08:25.039 --> 00:08:28.160
and lastly using antivirus and firewalls

00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:30.560
for protection against trojan horses is

00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.199
a good habit,

00:08:33.839 --> 00:08:35.360
Now, that we have reached the end of the

00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:38.320
video, let's take a look what we learnt

00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:41.200
for the first part. We saw the main

00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.200
objective of the virus is to harm the

00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.920
data and information in a system whereas

00:08:45.920 --> 00:08:47.839
for the trojan, we have stealing of the

00:08:47.839 --> 00:08:50.480
data files and information

00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:53.040
effect of viruses is more drastic in

00:08:53.040 --> 00:08:56.640
comparison to the trojan horses.

00:08:56.959 --> 00:08:58.880
Then we have viruses which are

00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:01.680
non-remote programs whereas trojan

00:09:01.680 --> 00:09:03.839
horses are remote accessed.

00:09:03.839 --> 00:09:05.200
And lastly,

00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:07.440
viruses have the ability to replicate

00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.080
itself to harm multiple files whereas

00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:11.920
trojan does not have the

00:09:11.920 --> 00:09:13.680
replication ability.

00:09:13.680 --> 00:09:15.600
