Face threats head on
Even with the requisite complement of data protection software, your data and networks might not be as secure as you think, thanks to more aggressive, smarter viruses and other security threats. One type of "smart" attack can occur within root kits, a type of Trojan horse software implanted into a computer to capture passwords and message traffic. These attacks will allow a virus to make its way into the depths of the operating system, allowing it to interfere with the anti-virus software before it has a chance to detect the threat. Other emerging threats include embedded image spam, more threats around Voice over IP (VoIP), and malicious code concealed in video content.
