👉 Spyware is a type of malicious software designed to secretly gather information about a user's computer or network activities without their knowledge or consent. It can monitor keystrokes, capture screenshots, track web browsing habits, and even steal sensitive data like passwords and financial information. Often embedded in seemingly legitimate software or downloaded through phishing attacks, spyware operates covertly to exploit vulnerabilities and maintain persistent access to the infected device, posing significant risks to privacy and security.
