BitDefender Client Security

Worms: A self replicating program that uses the network to propagate, slowing down networks and infecting systems by leveraging system and application vulnerabilities. Payloads can include the deletion or encryption of files, emailing out documents, installing backdoors, zombies and Trojans.

Trojans and Root Kits: Trojans and Root Kits appear to be legitimate programs but are designed to allow remote access to a computer system. Once a Trojan or Root Kit has been installed, it is possible for an attacker to
access the system remotely and often can leads to data theft. Detecting and preventing these types of threats manually can be time consuming and often lead to a complete system reinstall if improperly removed.

Email Spam and Phishing: Unsolicited commercial advertisements distributed via email are more than just an annoyance. Spam consumes too much of peoples’ personal time if not managed properly. Some Spam or phishing attacks may also include malware as attachments - leading to internal compromise if executed – or links to websites requesting personal information. Phishing uses similar techniques but directs the user to a seemingly legitimate website in order to harvest personal information, such as credit card or bank account information or dropping key loggers onto the system that can harvest sensitive company information.

The impact of malware can be a severe disruption to everyone in the organization - however, it is the IT department that feels the after-effects the most. IT administrators that have dealt with the removal of a quickly propagating worm or virus that has infected a large number of systems knows that it is a long, time consuming task.
