Viruses count as the fastest-growing weapon in Web security, with new worm viruses invading technology each day. A few months ago, an e-mail recipient had to open an attachment to unleash the bug. Now, a reader simply has to open the e-mail to find his or computer infected.

Businesses increasingly realize the monetary liability associated with attacks.
