In today's automated world, special attention should be addressed to the cybersecurity of your data and activity online. The times when network security was related only to big corporations and institutions are gone. Nowadays, every person might be a potential victim of cyber attack regardless of the status and financial resources on the bank account.
What is Cybersecurity:-
Protection or safeguard of information and information system that uses store and transmit data from unauthorized access, deiclo-sures, alterations and destructions
Cybersecurity is the practice of defending computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks, and data from malicious attacks. It's also known as information technology security. The team applies in a variety of contexts, from business to mobile computing, and can be divided into a few common categories.
1. Network security
2. application security
3. information security
4.Operational security
WHY ARE CYBER ATTACKS SO DANGEROUS?
Needless to say that except for the leaking of information, damaging the data and undermining the reputation of the user, cyber-attacks have a more deepen the notion of threats and dangerous effects. There are some of them:
#1. It is quite contagious, which means that the device might be hacked even with-out clicking on malicious links or email attachment. Nowadays, threat actors are using remote execution(like Eternalblue) or Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) brute force attacks, which allow them to avoid interaction with the users.
#2. Economic Expenses, Every year, it causes billions of dollars to deal with the attacks; thus, after the companies are hacked, they usually lost a big part of their financial resources as well as customer loyalty.
#3. It is not easy to get rid of malware after the attack,need-less to say that the cleanup process might take months due to the restoration of machines and checking the network for any signs pg left malware. However, some viruses ( like WannaCry and QakBot) could leave some backdoors and schedule tasks that could reinstall themselves after some time.
#4. Companies' built-in system tools could be used against the company itself. Rather than dropping malicious files onto the disk, criminals are abusing legitimate tools like macros. Powerful scripts, PsExec, and WMIC, to execute their attacks. This "Living off the land" approach helps attackers hide in plain sight--achieving execution, persistence, and lateral movement using the otherwise valid application. With no malware involved, security that relies on identifying and blocking malware.
TOP 5 MYTHS OF CYBERSECURITY:
THE REALITY OF MODERN THREATS
Myth #1 Cybercrimes happen only to influential corporations and businesses. Therefore I am out of risk.
Myth #2 Mobile phone couldn't get hacked, so it is the safest among the devices.
Myth #3 If I have an "Antivirus software- I am safe."
Myth #4 "A strong password is enough"
Myth #5 " I would know straight away whether my device was hacked"
60% of all targeted attacks hit small and medium businesses
Drivers of increased cyber risk
Digitized world- The world is becoming more digitized everyday technology digital is increase ingly integral to everything we do.
The pace of innovation- Companies are innovating faster to transform customer experiences and improve efficiency and effectiveness.
Technology complexity- The attack surface is increasingly becoming more open through cloud-based technologies & APl- based architect.
Data sharing and interchange- Growing interconnectedness and the expanding velocity, volume, and variety of data increase vulnerability by widening the cyberattack surface.
Attack sophistication- actor are increasingly organized and used more sophistication techniques; attack vectors are constantly shifting
