Whenever a computer starts freezing or acting weird, most people say the same thing: "I've got a virus." But calling everything a virus is like calling every vehicle on the road a bicycle. A virus is just one type of malware — and some of the others are far worse.
Some slow your computer to a crawl. Some sit quietly in the background watching everything you type, including every password and credit card number. Others encrypt every file you own and demand Bitcoin to give them back. One type hides so deep inside your operating system that your antivirus can't even see it exists — and the only fix is wiping the entire drive. And another turns your computer into one soldier in a million-device army that can knock entire websites offline on command.
Twelve types of malware broken down by what they actually do, how they get in, and why they're each dangerous in a completely different way.
