Combine Malware And A Consulting Firm To Get: Slurpware
from the wonderful dept
Because it's getting tiresome to say virus/trojans/zombies/spyware/keylogging/phishing/etc all at once, and it's becoming increasingly clear that organized crime groups are creating more sophisticated scams that involve bits and pieces of all of this stuff, one company is now calling the combined attacks: "slurpware." Just curious... what was wrong with the commonly accepted term malware?

obviously what's wrong with using the standard umbrella term 'malware' is that it doesn't gain the company using it any extra attention.

Slurpware
I agree. I don't understand why the term "slurpware" is needed when malware already defines the same thing.
