Investigate $3$ specific and recent viruses$/$worms$,$ software exploits, or malware packages $($a total of $3,$ not three of each $-$ they may be from the same category, or multiple$).$ These should b XL$03$ e threats in the last $6$ years $($if in doubt, ask your professor if your topic chosen is recent enough$).$ Note also the "specific" $-$ for example, you should not just write about "ransomware" or similar, but research the details about a specific$/$notable example of it$.$ For each summarize: $1.$ a brief description of the threat $-$ when did it happen$/$get discovered, how did it work$/$ what it affected $2.$ the impact that it had $3.$ and what approach or approaches are$/$where effective at mitigating that threat. Rough length guidelines would be half a page to a page double spaced per threat discussed $-$ however quality of the information more than quantity is key.
