be just as destructive.

users’ PCs because they give their authors remote control over
infected computers. They are downloaded, installed, and run
silently, without the user’s consent or knowledge. Upon
installation, backdoor trojans can be instructed to send,
receive, execute and delete files, gather and transfer
confidential data from the computer, log all activity on the
computer, and perform other harmful activities.
RAT
