The Ultimate Guide to Security Threats

Internet security expert McAfee is helping everyday web users to get up to speed with the threats they face online with a new tool.

The firm has launched The Ultimate Guide To Security Threats in a bid to raise awareness of the common dangers that lurk within the realms of the world wide web.

The guide, embedded below, offers an at-a-glance resource for users to bookmark and understand viruses, spam, spoofing, phishing, Trojan horses, botnets, worms, spyware and DDos attacks.

It also looks at a timeline of high profile recent hacks, demonstrating the scale and severity of the security risk – as well as the increasing sophistication and ambition displayed by cyber criminals.
