A virus informativo, or informational virus, is a type of malware that spreads through the sharing of infected files or programs. Unlike traditional viruses, which primarily aim to damage or disrupt computer systems, informational viruses are designed to gather and transmit information about the infected system to a remote attacker.
These viruses can be particularly dangerous as they can steal sensitive data such as passwords, financial information, and browsing history. They can also be used to track user activity, monitor keystrokes, and even control the infected system remotely.
