3. What is Malware Anyway? “ Software is considered to be malware based on the perceived intent of the creator rather than any particular features. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, trojan horses, spyware, dishonest adware, scareware, crimeware, most rootkits, and other malicious or unwanted software or programs” – Wikipedia
4. What is Malware Anyway? “ Malware as full programs or applications designed to steal data, corrupt files or disrupt business. Viruses are simply malicious code that depends on infecting, changing, corrupting or patching applications and/or program files.” – Malwarebytes Corp

Editor's Notes
* Malwarebytes’ Malware count from 2008 - 2011
* Perhaps add in a slide “Malwarebytes definition of malware” – Malware as full programs or applications designed to steal data, corrupt files or disrupt business. Viruses are simply malicious code that depends on infecting, changing, corrupting or patching applications and/or program files.

Don’t take just our word for it. Other researchers and industry experts confirm what we are seeing. Scanning and Sampling Methodology: Panda Labs gathers data from millions of computers worldwide through its scanning service to give a statistically valid view of the security situation at the desktop. The scanned computers belong to both corporate and consumer users in more than 100 countries. Though the scanning system checks for many different kinds of potentially unwanted software, for this report, Panda Labs has segmented out ‘ Downloaders’ and ‘Banking Trojans/Password Stealers’ as they are most often associated with financial crimes such as automated phishing schemes. According to Luis Corrons, PandaLabs Technical Director and an APWG Trends Report contributing analyst, the proportion of infected computers has decreased (from 53 percent of desktops scanned in Q1 to just over 50 percent in Q2), but the infection rate is still is over 50 percent. That means, Corrons said, that Panda’s scanners have detected malware (active or latent) in half of all computers scanned. The percentage of computers infected with banking Trojans and Password Stealers rose to 17 more than percent from 15 percent in Q1. The percentage of Downloaders rose from under 8.3 percent to almost 8.4 percent in Q2.

Talking point: Discuss the approach of our industry leading malware removal capabilities. Two principals coming from a computer & technical support background working to simplify and automate how malware could be removed from systems by the average person. Second talking point: Majority of AV testing services will scan an archived pile of samples that are decades old. This is something we call “Right Click scanning”. Marcin can Describe the two protection modules and how they function in “Real World” situations.
