Cybercriminals create more complicated and diverse methods of obtaining sensitive data as we become more dependent on technology and entrust it with more of our personal information. There are many different types of harmful malware, including Trojan Horses. But there are various varieties of this malware. Trojan Horses come in a variety of forms and are created for various purposes.
What are the most typical Trojan types that you should be on the lookout for? Let’s quickly review what Trojan Horses are before we look at the various types of them.
The Odyssey, a work of Homer’s from classical Greece, is where the phrase “Trojan Horse” first emerged. The city of Troy receives a large wooden horse as a gift, but the recipients have no idea that soldiers are concealed inside the animal. The soldiers can invade when the horse enters the city.
Similar to the original, a Trojan Horse program conceals itself in otherwise defenseless software. For instance, you might believe that an app is safe to download and install, but the developer may have added a Trojan to the program. Once the program has infected your device, it can be used for a variety of illegal activities, including remote control, data theft, and activity monitoring.
