What Was the First Computer Virus Ever Created? #technology #trivia ðŸ¦
0Do you know what was the first computer virus ever created and when it was released? In this video, we will reveal the answer and tell you some interesting facts about the history of computer viruses.
The first computer virus was called Brain, and it was written by two brothers from Pakistan, Basit and Amjad Farooq Alvi, in 1986. They created it as a way to protect their software from piracy, and they included their names and phone numbers in the code. The virus infected floppy disks and displayed the message "Welcome to the Dungeon" on the screen.
Brain was not intended to be malicious, but it spread quickly and caused problems for many users. It is considered to be the first PC virus, as it targeted IBM-compatible computers running MS-DOS. Since then, many other types of viruses have emerged, such as worms, trojans, ransomware, and more.
