McAfee made ten predictions when analyzing the security situation next year. We would like to share them with you. After understanding them, we know that prevention is better than cure. We hope that everyone will never be harassed by viruses, Trojans, or rogue software. Cybercrime is becoming increasingly rampant, and new viruses and new criminal methods will surely appear next year. Although these may have nothing to do with you now, if you are always in the world, you will inevitably be hurt. McAfee made ten predictions when analyzing the security situation next year. We would like to share them with you. After understanding them, we will know that prevention is better than cure. We hope that everyone will never be harassed by viruses, Trojans, and rogue software. Surf the web with caution. Let's take a look at these ten predictions: 1. The number of web pages that steal passwords will increase, most of which imitate the login interfaces of well-known websites such as eBay to trick users. 2. The proportion of spam, image emails that occupy bandwidth, etc. will continue to grow. 3. The popularity of video websites will make hackers pay attention to MPEG as a way to spread malicious codes. 4. As mobile devices become smarter, attacks against them will also increase. 5. With the development of the Internet, advertising and rogue software will also increase. 6. Identity and data theft will continue to be a headache for many users. In addition to computer control, the loss of devices containing information and the interception of network communications are also major causes of loss. 7. Using "robots" to automatically complete tasks will also make it easier for hackers to target you. 8. Malware, Trojans, and viruses will be more difficult to completely remove, and they will require more difficult backup and recovery methods. 9. The number of offensive rootkits on 32-bit platforms will increase, but the corresponding protection technology will also improve. 10. System or software vulnerabilities will continue to stimulate the "underground information market". Although the situation does not look optimistic, as David Marcus, director of communications for McAfee Security Research, said: "This is not the end of the world. The bad guys are doing their best, and the security industry is growing day by day."
