Vulnerability discussion

Malicious code protection mechanisms include, but are not limited, to anti-virus and malware detection software.

Other technology- or organization-specific responses may also be employed to satisfy this requirement.Malicious code includes viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and Spyware.
