Explained: Most common types of malware and how they can be dangerous

A virus, worm, and Trojan are three types of malware that can be dangerous to devices and data. While a virus replicates itself through legitimate files, a worm exploits security vulnerabilities to quickly spread through computer networks. On the other hand, a trojan disguises itself as a legitimate file or program and can perform malicious actions, such as installing other types of malware or stealing data. All three can slow down computers, corrupt files, steal data, install malware, or give hackers access to personal information.
