Unfortunately, part of life with IT is dealing with Malware
Malware is an abbreviated term meaning “malicious software.” This is software that is specifically designed to gain access or damage a computer without the knowledge of the owner/company. There are various types of malware including spyware, keyloggers, true viruses, worms, or any type of malicious code that infiltrates a computer. Generally, software is considered malware based on the intent of the creator rather than its actual features.
Compuland have been using a super piece of software to help our clients if hit with Malware – www.malwarebytes.org
It detects, quarantines and offers future protection to your IT system against Malware.
Recently it was announced that the same company, Malwarebytes, is opening offices in Cork.
Great to see one of these software companies setting up in Ireland …but more importantly in Cork.
Well done to all involved.
