This is one of the scariest commands. When you run this command, it deletes everything in the root directory forcibly and recursively. As a result, all of your directories and subdirectories will be deleted, and all of your data will be lost.
11 dangerous Linux terminal commands every Linux user must be aware of (don't run).
This is one of the scariest commands. When you run this command, it deletes everything in the root directory forcibly and recursively. As a result, all of your directories and subdirectories will be deleted, and all of your data will be lost.
This command will move all data to a special location in Linux known as the black hole, which is located in your system at /dev/null.
As a result, if you accidentally move your data to this folder, it will not be recovered
This is my personal best, a simple bash recursive function that, when executed, creates copies of itself, which in turn creates another set of copies of itself. This takes up CPU time and memory. As a result, it loops until the system freezes.
This command writes raw data (command output) to the specified partition. This causes data loss on the hard drive or specified partition.
command - this could be any Linux command.
Wget and curl are useful Linux commands for retrieving and downloading files from the internet. However, if we blindly download and execute a malicious script, these commands can be dangerous.
This command does not physically affect your system in the same way that the other commands do, but it does provide a security breach on the system.
By running this command, you grant all system users the ability to read, write, and execute data on your system. In terms of security, this is risky and dangerous.
The following command is the same as the previously mentioned rm -rf / command. The codes are hidden in hex here to fool an unsuspecting user.
This command will erase your hard drive and recreate it.
These should only be used when you have a backup of your data on the cloud or an external device.
This command will write random garbage data to your hard drive.
Your system will not be recovered as a result of this command.
Because it executes every command from that you have already executed, the history | sh command can be dangerous. The action may cause system instability and the execution of commands that you do not want to repeat.
The ^foo^bar command has the potential to be both helpful and dangerous. While the command saves time by allowing you to edit a previously run command and re-run it,
The command changes the first occurrence of foo to bar.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.
...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.
Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
