Yes, you can post malware reatled info and it's prevention techniques. I don't think that is a problem and It could be helpful too. Just don't create one to harm something around and post it here.

Usually I see a lot of members posting in the  Beginners & Help (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=39.0) to warn potential malware/spyware attacks. Or Scam Accusations (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0) board with screenshots and some other proof. Best of luck.

Obviously it is allowed for warning people. But before making the post don't forget to use search tool or google to find out any similar post already posted/not. Also don't forget to report the site/file with valid proof as Lafu said previously. Thank you

You can post about almost any subject this forum. If you search you will find a board that caters for almost any and all topics.

Online security and protection against viruses and malware would be something that would make good content here so feel free to post about it.

If its a post that specifically targets malware which is related to Bitcoin it will likely fall into one of the main Bitcoin sections, and I'd recommend tailoring it to Bitcoin users. However, if its general, and doesn't apply to Bitcoin its probably best to either put it in off topic. If it relates to Altcoin malware, and their tricks that they like to pull you can put it in the Altcoin section or the serious discussion section.

It could be beneficial to post it in beginners thread as well. Because the knowledge about malware and spywares should be first learned before being exposed to creating transaction and taking up risk here on cryptocurrency space.

As long as your post doesn't harm anyone or contains anything nonsense, It is okay. I also think that your chosen topic is helpful especially for bitcoin users who always encounters links that might have malware behind it. Well, people still need to hear some enlightenment and be educated about this topic since this modus isn't new and is very common, too common that you won't recognize it easily. So yes, Go for it. I can see that your aim is too help and knew that it will be helpful.
