_______ is another term for antivirus software.

  • A.Anti-Malware
  • B.Malware detection program
  • C.Spyware eliminater
  • D.Network protection software

Answer: A

Another term for antivirus software is Anti-Malware.

Malware is the umbrella term for malicious software: viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware, ransomware and so on. Modern antivirus programs detect and remove all of these, so the two names are used interchangeably.

'Malware detection program' describes only one function, detection, and not removal. A spyware eliminator deals with one kind of malware only. Network protection software, such as a firewall, controls network traffic rather than scanning for and removing malicious programs.
