TROJAN **

Trojans are not like viruses or worms, and they are not meant to damage or delete files on your system. Their principal task is to provide to a backdoor gateway for malicious programs or malevolent users to enter your system and steal your valuable data without your knowledge and permission. JS.Debeski.Trojan is an example of Trojan.

Trojans derive their name from the ‘Trojan Horse’ tale in which the Greeks entered the city of Troy with the help of a wooden horse disguised as a gift. But the Trojan turned out to be a sweet poison, as depicted in the movie Troy.

The Trojan Gang (Types of Trojan):

-Remote Access Trojans
-Data Sending Trojans
-Destructive Trojans
-Proxy Trojans
-FTP Trojans
-Security Software Disabler Trojans
-Denial-Of-Service Attack Trojans
