Fred Cohen is known for his pioneering work in computer security, particularly for demonstrating the concept of Computer Viruses in his 1984 paper. He created a theoretical virus called "Cohen's Virus" as part of his research, which showcased how self-replicating programs could spread and infect other systems. This work laid the foundation for the study of computer viruses and prompted further research into cybersecurity and virus detection methods.
