**Raising Cybersecurity Awareness: : Learning about Malware according to my Project
Indeed, in a digital age where keeping ones data safe is becoming more important, it is always important to know the threats that are causing this insecurity. For this purpose, I have developed a simple malware project which has an objective of creating awareness of cybersecurity threats.
This software was created for the educational purpose and imitates the behavior of a regular malware. It shows this simply how prone systems are when they are not properly protected by hackers. As you will see in this project, it is crucial to protect your gadgets and other information that is stored in those devices. The malware demonstrates different methods of infecting systems for instance through phishing and social engineering.
This is not a nefarious endeavor, but a way to learn and see how malware works, how it propagates and more to the point, how best to protect ourselves from it. In sharing the following information on these cyber threats, I want to help people and companies increase their protections and be more aware about threats in our societies which have become highly digitalized.
The first thing that every organization and individual needs to on the potential cyber threats is awareness. Stay informed, stay safe!
This post maintain an informative a responsible tone by continuously stating that the project is for educational purpose and is not intended for malicious activities.
and lets learn how to create the malware in next post ...
