8. Virus – rogue software program that attaches itself to other software programs or data files in order to be executed, usually without user knowledge or permission Worms – independent computer programs that copy themselves from one computer to other computer over a network. Can rely on their own without attaching to other computer program files, and spread rapidly. Trojan Horse – software program that appears to be benign but then does something other than expected. A way for virus or other malicious code to be introduced in a computer system. Spyware – Small programs that nstall themselves surreptitously on computers to monitor user web surfing activity and serve up advertising.

10. Inadequate security and control may create serious legal liability. Businesses must protect not only their own information assets but also those of customers, employees, and business partners. Failure to do so can lead to costly litigation for data exposure or theft. A sound security and control framework that protects business information assets can thus produce a high return on investment. BUSINESS VALUE OF SECURITY AND CONTROL 10Artificial Intelligent
