Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v10) — Question 100

Which of the following programs is usually targeted at Microsoft Office products?

Answer options

• A. Polymorphic virus
• B. Multipart virus
• C. Macro virus
• D. Stealth virus

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as macro viruses are specifically designed to exploit the macro capabilities of Microsoft Office products. Options A, B, and D refer to other types of viruses that do not specifically target Office applications; polymorphic viruses change their code to evade detection, multipart viruses can spread in multiple ways, and stealth viruses hide their presence without targeting specific applications.
