Work in small groups and have a discussion about how computer viruses spread and how companies should protect against computer viruses. Computer viruses can be transmitted via e-mail attachments. They also spread through software downloaded from the Internet. So when you are downloading the unlicensed and pirated software, you are likely to put your computer at risk. The software can seem harmless enough, but they could easily be harboring a dangerous virus. To protect against computer viruses, we should be careful when opening e-mail attachments and downloading software. We should use anti-virus software and update it regularly. As for companies, they should not only take measures by investing in anti-virus software, but also pay enough attention to the education of their employees. While the employees may suddenly become aware of the virus threat when the threat is there, they soon forget about it as the stories disappear from the news headlines. So it is important that companies constantly educate the users about the virus threat and ask them to practice safe computing. 10 Write a paragraph of around 80 words explaining that companies should do more than invest in anti-virus software to protect against computer viruses.

When they are opening unsolicited attachments or downloading unauthorized software, they probably are putting the company at risk, for the attachments and the software could easily harbor dangerous viruses. Therefore, it is very important that companies should constantly educate their employees about the virus threat and remind them about what would happen if they let their guard down. Passage B Think About It 1 Yes, my e-mail pin was once hit by hackers and I couldn’t enter it any more. 2 Companies or individuals who wish to avert computer security issues should put security systems in place. From a hacking perspective, each server is open to attack, so each must possess its own anti-virus and spyware systems, and continued oversight must be given to each of these security systems. 3 Not all hackers are criminals. Bored in school, very adept with computers and technology, they download scripts or hack into systems with the intent to vandalize or disrupt systems. They like to see themselves as elite. They have a lot of programming background and write code but won’t use it themselves. Underlying the psyche of the criminal hacker may be a deep sense of inferiority. Consequently, the mastery of computer technology, or the shut down of a major site, might give them a sense of power.

This is a VBScript Internet worm which was based loosely on the original VBS/Love letter worm. This worm does not damage files, however, it does contain another mechanism of downloading a password stealing agent and launching this silently in the background. In addition, this worm steals PIN information stored in the registry related to UBS online banking software. This worm distributes itself via MAPI e-mail as “resume.txt.vbs” with the subject line “resume” and no body text. If this VBScript is run, it may display an actual resume in Notepad. However in the background it is doing other things such as downloading the trojan component and sending itself to others via MAPI e-mail. Additionally, the sensitive PIN information is e-mailed to three hard-coded e-mail recipients.
