What is a computer virus?

In today’s world, a computer virus is a piece of software, a program that has been intentionally created to cause a user hassle, or spread to other computers, or ultimately destroy the data on a computer. To help prevent a computer from becoming infected by a virus, developers have produced anti-virus programs that stay active on the computer, helping to protect it. It is important to realize that many computers do not come with these already installed and that if computers do come with these programs, the programs may expire within 90 days.

We recommend centrally managed Antivirus suites, regular backups and well informed staff to avoid serious impact to your data.
