Which of the following describes programs that can run independently travel from system to system and disrupt computer communication?

  • A.Viruses
  • B.Worm
  • C.Trojans
  • D.Droppers

Answer: B

Correct answer: Worm

A worm is distinguished from a virus precisely by independence: it needs no host program and no user action, but propagates itself across a network, and the traffic it generates is what disrupts communication. Trojans do not self-propagate, and a dropper merely installs other malware.
