A computer virus is a piece of code that can replicate itself and usually has a negative outcome, such as causing damage to the system or erasing your data on the computer. A computer virus, like the flu virus, can quickly spread by opening e-mail attachments, downloads, and scam links. It attaches to programs, documents, Internet downloads, and files and can be spread through the opening of e-mails, attachments, downloads, and files. Viruses can infect mobile devices via app downloads as well.
Never download programs, apps, or attachments that you are unfamiliar with, are not expecting, or do not come from a trusted source, and never click on unfamiliar websites.
Computer and Mobile Device Virus Protection
To protect your computer or device from incoming threats, virus protection software is required, and it should also send an alert when a potential threat is discovered. Keep your security software up to date to ensure optimal protection and performance.
