This composite image shows three icons representing different types of malware, arranged in a triptych. The first icon is labelled 'Ransomware' and shows a padlocked case, with a dollar sign imposed on it. The second icon is labelled 'Spyware' and shows a laptop screen with a suspicious, shadowy face upon it, implied to be 'spying' on the computer activity. The third icon is 'labelled' botnets and shows an angry cartoon robot face in the center, with many lines leading out to smaller connected robots, representing computers that have been taken over by the malware.
