Fred Cohen's virus is believed to be the first piece of code ever referred to by the name "Virus". It was created as a demonstration of how self-spreading programs could be a threat while Cohen was a student of Leonard Adleman at the University of Southern California. Cohen later wrote his Ph.D. thesis on viruses.
