spy gear

1 answer

"Spy gear" is not typically classified as malicious code. The other options—Trojan horse, worm, and virus—are all types of malicious software (malware) designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise systems. Spy gear, on the other hand, generally refers to tools or devices used for surveillance and may or may not involve malicious intent, depending on the context and usage.
