Um, actually, you're incorrect about both magnetic and viral. It's essentially the same concept as corrosive but for shields and health.

The magnetic status effect only effects shields, but magnetic damage will hit shields and health.

The viral status effect only effects health, but viral damage will hit both shields and health.

Also, you can't actually damage armor. Damage only lowers shields and health. Armor can only be removed using corrosive stats, Shattering Impact, and some abilities. No matter how much damage you do an enemy's armor will remain the same.
