An early (and current) virus researcher, Fred Cohen, has argued that good computer viruses are a serious possibility.

The paper covers all aspects of the topic. As of this writing, the paper is available at:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><a href=\"ftp:\/\/ftp.informatik.uni-hamburg.de\/pub\/virus\/texts\/viruses\/goodvir.zip\">ftp:\/\/ftp.informatik.uni-hamburg.de\/pub\/virus\/texts\/viruses\/goodvir.zip<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/weblink.png\" alt=\"Web Link\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lest you think others have not been thinking about this, here are some of the proposals (from the above-referenced paper) for a good virus that have not worked out:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The &#8220;Anti-Virus&#8221; Virus.<\/strong> Several people have had the idea to develop an &#8220;anti-virus&#8221; virus; a virus which would be able to locate other (presumably malicious) computer viruses and remove them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The &#8220;File Compressor&#8221; Virus.<\/strong> This is one of the oldest ideas for &#8220;beneficial&#8221; viruses. The idea consists of creating a self-replicating program, which will compress the files it infects, before attaching itself to them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The &#8220;Disk Encryptor&#8221; Virus.<\/strong> This virus has been published. The idea is to write a boot sector virus, which encrypts the disks it infects with a strong encryption algorithm (IDEA in this particular case) and a user-supplied password to ensure the privacy of the user&#8217;s data.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The &#8220;Maintenance&#8221; Virus.<\/strong> The idea consists of a self-contained program, which spawns copies of itself across the different machines in a network (thus acting more like a worm) and performing some maintenance tasks on those machines (like deleting temporary files).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of the above viruses fail one or more of the standard measures typically used to judge if a virus is &#8220;good&#8221; or not. These are (again, from the above-referenced paper):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Technical Reasons<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lack of Control.<\/strong> Once released, the person who has released a computer virus has no control on how this virus will spread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recognition Difficulty.<\/strong> In general it is not always possible to distinguish between a virus and a non-virus program. There is no reason to think that distinguishing between &#8220;good&#8221; and &#8220;bad&#8221; viruses will be much easier. Many people are relying on generic anti-virus defenses (e.g., activity monitoring and\/or integrity checking) which will trigger a response to changes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resource Wasting.<\/strong> A computer virus eats up disk space, CPU time, and memory resources during its replication.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bug Containment.<\/strong> A computer virus can easily escape a controlled environment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Compatibility Problems.<\/strong> A computer virus that attaches itself to user programs would disable several programs on the market that perform a checksum on themselves at runtime.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ethical and Legal Reasons<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unauthorized Data Modification.<\/strong> It is usually considered unethical to modify other people&#8217;s data without their authorization. In many countries this is also illegal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Copyright and Ownership Problems.<\/strong> In many cases, modifying a particular program could mean that copyright, ownership, or at least technical support rights for this program are voided.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Possible Misuse.<\/strong> An attacker could use a &#8220;good&#8221; virus as a means of transportation to penetrate a system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Responsibility.<\/strong> Declaring some viruses as &#8220;good&#8221; and &#8220;beneficial&#8221; would just provide an excuse to the crowd of irresponsible virus writers to condone their activities and to claim that they are actually doing some kind of &#8220;research.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Psychological Reasons<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Trust Problems.<\/strong> Users like to think that they have full control on what is happening in their machine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Negative Common Meaning.<\/strong> For most people, the word &#8220;computer virus&#8221; is already loaded with negative meaning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Summary<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>While frequently discussed, the general consensus is that there is no task that requires a virus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table style=\"margin: 0pt; width: 100%;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr align=\"center\">\n<td style=\"padding: 0 0 0 0;\" colspan=\"2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/arrow_up.png\" alt=\"Up Arrow\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-579\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/vtutor\/introduction-to-viruses.html\">Introduction to Viruses<\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/arrow_up.png\" alt=\"Up Arrow\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-579\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 0 0 0 0;\" align=\"right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/vtutor\/how-serious-are-viruses.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/arrow_prior.gif\" alt=\"Prior Page\" width=\"48\" height=\"32\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-578\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 0 0 0 0;\" align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/vtutor\/why-do-people-write-viruses.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/arrow_next.gif\" alt=\"Next Page\" width=\"48\" height=\"32\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-577\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding-right: 20px; text-align: right; width: 50%;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/vtutor\/how-serious-are-viruses.html\">How Serious are Viruses?<\/a> <\/td>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 20px; width: 50%; text-align: left;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cknow.com\/cms\/vtutor\/why-do-people-write-viruses.html\">Why Do People Write Viruses?<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Comments from Original Post:<\/p>\n<p>Just David<br \/>\nSaid this on 2011-09-24 At 04:12 pm<br \/>\nMicrosoft, Google, and many other popular computing corporations now employ automatic updaters.
