Your Web server crashes at exactly the point where it reaches 1 million total visits. You discover the cause of the server crash is malicious code. Which description best fits this code?

A worm is self-replicating malware that spreads across networks independently; it does not trigger based on a specific condition like a counter.

A logic bomb is defined as malicious code that activates only when a predetermined condition is satisfied - in this case, a visit counter reaching exactly 1 million. Unlike viruses or worms, a logic bomb does not self-replicate; it simply waits for its trigger condition. This makes it particularly dangerous because it can go undetected for extended periods before executing its payload.

A polymorphic virus mutates its own code to evade detection and spreads by attaching to files, which does not describe condition-based triggering.

A virus attaches to legitimate programs and replicates when the host is executed, but does not specifically activate based on a predefined threshold condition.
