The term "Trojan horse" refers to a type of malware that is disguised as a legitimate program but contains a hidden malicious code that can allow unauthorized access to a computer system. This allows cybercriminals to remotely control the affected computer, steal data, engage in fraudulent activities, and launch attacks on other systems. A Trojan horse can also be used to create a botnet, which is a network of infected computers controlled by a central command and control server for carrying out cyber attacks, sending spam emails, or conducting distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
