Malware, internet threat - types and protection
Vaňková, Aneta ; Luc, Ladislav (advisor) ; Veber, Jaromír (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals the world malware and what this word means. The theoretical part describes the particular division of malware, its history and development from the 70s to the present. Other chapters include targets of hackers, why malware exists and what is the motivation of its authors. Conclusion of the theoretical part describes other threats which are on the Internet. The practical part includes two explorations. The first is dedicated to antivirus, it represents the most frequently used programs, their functionality and user interface. Test of infected file demonstrates the functionality and level of security. Final summary assists users in selecting the appropriate antivirus for their computer.

Malware Analysis: Tools and Techniques
Danilov, Marcel ; Luc, Ladislav (advisor) ; Veber, Jaromír (referee)
This bachelor thesis adresses present day topic of broad interest, the topic of malware. This term stands for malicous software as viruses, worms, trojans, spyware etc. Simply put a software with intent to do harm to the users of computers or mobile devices, to their steal information or gain access to their private computer systems. This thesis is divided into several chapters. First few of them are theoretical. First one describes malware in general. It defines what malware is and divides it into categories. Second chapter introduces a discipline of malware analysis. A discipline where malware, its components and behaviour is analysed in laboratory environment. This chapter contains general description of malware analysis, categories in which is this analysis divided, and rules of said analysis. Third chapter goes even further into malware analysis. It describes and identifies its indiviual techniques and tools. Last chapter is focused on practical usage of malware analysis. Theoretical knowledge of malware analysis, specifically knowledge of tools and techniques described in previous chapters is demonstrated on real, live example of malware. Thanks to demonstration of tools and techniques; funcionality, structure and life cycle of mentioned piece of malware is also being analyzed. Goal of this thesis is to bring reader closer to the topic of malware, with emphasis on area of malware analysis. This contains an explanation what an malware analysis is, what is its purpose. Next goal is to develop a summary of malware analysis basic tools and techniques. Thesis contribution is application of knowledge of techniques and tools on real malware analysis. With the help of malware analysis, this thesis demonstrates its individual tools and techniques on live example of malware. Other contributions are deriving from analysis itself. Funcionality, structure and life cycle of analysed piece of malware is also being explained.

Market analysis of security software
Doležal, Ladislav ; Benáčanová, Helena (advisor) ; Řezníček, Dušan (referee)
In this thesis, I analyze the global supply of security software (for operating system Win-dows) with a focus on anti-virus programs, which currently mostly implicitly include vari-ous modules of security software. In the first part of my thesis, I will focus on the clarification of issues related to IS / IT se-curity and cybercrime. I describe here the security IS / IT in general, describes the basic concepts and information safety, so that readers gain a basic understanding of this issue. I explain the concept of cybercrime and characterize its main crime. The second part will focus on the clarification of issues relating to security and safety not only domestic, but also corporate computers. I further characterize the greatest threats of our time for PC users and the possibility of prevention. In the third part, I will analyze the security software market analysis due to their market shares and qualifying tests conducted by recognized independent organizations, so to currently provide their full offer. Using the survey I will find out what is the awareness on the selection and use of antivirus software, and on this basis determine what antivirus software are most popular by users.
