to cause errors or damage to a digital file, program, or system, either intentionally or unintentionally, due to a malfunction or interference

(computing) to suddenly stop working

(computing) to detect and remove faults in a software

(of a computer system) not working temporarily or properly

(of software) to stop working properly and no longer respond to actions

(of an AI system) to generate false or fabricated information

slow to respond, as a computer, game, or internet connection

to subject an electrical system to a demand that exceeds its designed capacity

(computing) a fault caused when a value is too large for the system to represent

(computing) to cancel an operation or to turn off the computer automatically because a predefined interval of time has passed without a certain event happening

(computing) to illegally access a computer system, network, or online account in order to find, use, or change the information it contains

a type of malicious software that appears to be legitimate but actually enables unauthorized access to a computer system

a software designed to disrupt or damage the computer without the user knowing

the practice of embedding malware in online advertisements, or the ads themselves

criminal activities carried out through the use of computers or the internet, often involving unauthorized access to computer systems, theft of personal or financial information, fraud, identity theft, or the spread of malicious software

unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or use of copyrighted materials, such as software, music, movies, or books

a harmful program capable of multiplying itself and corrupting files and not allowing a system, like that of a computer, to function properly

a self-replicating program that spreads across networks without user action

(of software or a code) intentionally designed to harm, damage, or disrupt computer systems, networks, or data

(computing) a network of infected computers controlled remotely by malware

(computing) a computer program whose task is providing protection against cyber attacks by limiting outside access of data

having the ability to protect a system from viruses by finding and destroying them

(computing) a diagnostic startup mode that loads only essential drivers and services

a unique identifier or name chosen by a user to represent themselves or their account in online platforms, websites, or social media

a secret group of letters or numbers that allows access to a computer system or service

to start using a computer system, online account, or application by doing particular actions

to stop a connection to an online account or computer system by doing specific actions

the practice of protecting computer systems, networks, and data from theft, damage, or unauthorized access

(computer science) the operation of reading or writing stored information

to verify a device, user, or process before an access to the computer's resources is allowed
