April 6, 2024

Research the evolution of malware attacks using Microsoft programs. Summarize
some large and small attacks along with how they were executed and the results they had.
Analyze the impact these types of attacks have had not only of the victims, but also the
reputation of Microsoft and monetary impact. Describe different patches and security
procedures that have come about in order to better secure Microsoft programs and user
as a response to these types of malware attacks
Some deliverables I will be using are graphs illustrating the amount of users who
have become victims to these types of attacks and the cost they have had. If I can find a
table with the different malwares, I will also be using that.
