2. 2 Types of Assaults on Computers and Networks Spyware-software made by publishers that allow them to snoop on your browsing activity, invade your privacy, and flood you with those horrible pop-ups. Identity theft- Virus-a software program capable of reproducing itself and usually capable of causing great harm to files or other programs on the same computer; "a true virus cannot spread to another computer without human assistance " Worm-a software program capable of reproducing itself that can spread from one computer to the next over a network; "worms take advantage of automatic file sending and receiving features found on many computers“.

3. 3 Types of Assaults on Computers and Networks Trojan Horse-A computer program is either hidden inside another program or that masquerades as something it is not in order to trick potential users into running it. For example a program that appears to be a game or image file but in reality performs some other function. The term "Trojan Horse" comes from a possibly mythical ruse of war used by the Greeks sometime between 1500 and 1200 BC

4. 4 Types of Assaults on Computers and Networks Social Engineering-An attack based on deceiving users or administrators at the target site. Social engineering attacks are typically carried out by telephoning users or operators and pretending to be an authorized user, to attempt to gain illicit access to systems Sniffing usernames/passwords-An attacker puts a computer on your network into "promiscuous mode", listening to every bit of traffic that goes by on the network and captures all the data. Normally a computer's network connection ignores traffic that is not addressed to it, but when sniffing the computer will pick up everything. This is an easy way to pick up clear text passwords. e-mail programs frequently use clear text passwords. Many users use the same password for everything. This allows an attacker to crawl deeper into your network. Spoofing-Pretending to be someone else. The deliberate inducement of a user or a resource to take an incorrect action. Attempt to gain access to an AIS by pretending to be an authorized user. Impersonating, masquerading, and mimicking are forms of spoofing.
