ITU Study on the Financial Aspects of Network Security: Malware and Spam
Overview Malware is a summary term for different forms of malevolent software designed to infiltrate and infect computers, typically without the knowledge of the owner. During the past two decades, the production and dissemination of malware has grown into a multibillion dollar business. Damages created by fraudulent and criminal activities using malware and the costs of preventative measures are likely to exceed that number significantly. Malware puts the private and the public sector at risk because both increasingly rely on the value net of information services. Spam and malware were hitherto relatively separable problems they are presently converging with the emergence of botnets.
