Malware attack forecasting by using exponential smoothing

One of the threats on digital environment is malicious software (malware). Malware can bring harm to computer system that have connection to the internet. Malware may disclose sensitive information such as password and brings economic losses. Predicting the malware attack is vital in supporting deci...
