Whatever Happened To Computer Viruses? Earn Cash Back On Stocks: Up To $5,000 Per Yearhttps://www.silomarkets.com/logicRemember how we were all scared of getting a computer virus 10 to 20 years ago? We would buy external software from McAfee and Norton in hopes of preventing a Trojan virus that could destroy our data or corrupt our computers altogether. But, for quite some time now, we haven’t faced any computer viruses. In fact, many of us don’t even use external antivirus protection software or take extra precautions when it comes to browsing the internet. This can be explained by a couple of factors. For one, the entire world has ditched Internet Explorer which was one of the biggest culprits allowing for computer viruses. Internet Explorer allowed websites to run Visual Basic Script on the computer which gave websites significant access to the given device. Aside from ditching Internet Explorer, software companies have started to take cybersecurity much more seriously and they’ve even started to bribe hackers through large payouts. But, most importantly, the motive of hackers has shifted substantially. Hackers are no longer looking to corrupt our computers. Rather, they’re looking to covertly steal our personal data which is much more valuable. So, while computer viruses may be a relic of the past, staying vigilant online is still very much a concern.
