Anti-virus software is a type of program that protects the computer from harmful software, such as viruses, worms, trojans, spyware, ransomware, and adware. These malicious programs can steal or corrupt personal information, use the computer to launch attacks against other computers, and interfere with performance. Anti-virus software can prevent, detect, and remove malware infections by scanning the files, processes, and network communication.
