<\/span>Introduction<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Malware is short for \u2018malicious software\u2019 that performs unwanted action on websites and webservers and steals sensitive data such as credit card numbers or other personal information (identity theft). Malware can actually affect your livelihood if you use your website for business. Think about it, if you visit a site once and you see it is infected by malware, you\u2019re not likely to revisit the website. Websites that are infected with malware can actually be blacklisted from search engines as well. Google can detect that your site is having malware issues and can steer people away from your site for their own good; this will directly affect your business. The result can damage your reputation and cause your company to be viewed as unreliable and untrustworthy, which is why it\u2019s so valuable to have an\u00a0anti-malware scanner\u00a0like ESDS VTMScan.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>
