</center>


<p>The purpose of this frequently-asked-questions (FAQ) document is to
answer some common questions about what
cryptovirology is and what it isn't. It explains why this topic may
be of interest to individuals, software development companies, smartcard
manufacturers, and organizations that are concerned with information
security and privacy. It ties together certain subjects that
might appear to be separate, namely, cryptovirology and kleptography. In
fact, there is little difference between the two. It also covers certain
topics that may be of interest to research scientists. </p>

<p> This FAQ does not cover virus and worm basics, nor does it give an introduction
to cryptography. Suggested sources for these topics are given below. A
certain level of familiarity with all of these subjects is assumed. This
FAQ does not give advice on how to deal with a cryptovirology attack.
The main goal of this document is to explain what cryptovirology is and
at the same time prevent the spread of misinformation.</p>

Comments, suggestions, and constructive criticism are welcomed. Direct e-mail to
Adam Lucas Young, the FAQ maintainer, at adamy-at-acm-dot-org. This is
an evolving document and will hopefully grow and improve with time.
