Solution

The presence of malware in the IT world is very common as of today. the most dangerous malware in this regard for me is as follows:

Zeus or Zbot: This is a malware which affects users of Windows and tries to access confidential financial information of the user.

It tries to steal confidential data from the already infected system like gaining access to the user's password, details of bank account, bank credentials. It can steal the hard earned money of users which can upturn the life of people. The malware can then share this data to even more people and can turn to be more dangerous.
