Know How Technology Has Affected Cyber Security!
We have experienced a great renaissance in technology from the past decade. Everything has both sides, good and bad depending on how the users receive it or how they use it, right?
The same issue is with technology, as technology is increasing to peaks, the rate of crimes online or cyber crimes is also increasing parallelly. Many get addicted to the usage of technology these days and because of some flaws in technology, the number of cyber crimes is also increasing.
What is this Cyber Security?
Protecting computers, data, networks and other online programs from illegal access is called cyber security. Nowadays, it is really a daunting problem to protect from cyber attacks. Here are some factors how technology has affected cyber security:
1) Security Breache
The primary stage of cyber attacks for breaking any network is called a security breach. The risk may be very high or low depending on the intensity of the breach. Breach hacker can get access to the important data and can misuse it. In general, these sort of attacks is monitored by some software or firewalls.
2) Social Media Breach
Accessing of personal information from social media networks and using it for unfair means like posting something anti-social, is spam messaging.
3) Botnets
Botnets or simply called as zombie army are a group of computers used for transferring of the viruses on the internet without any personal action by the owner. By this hackers can steal personal data, online activity details etc.
4) Malware
Viruses, trojans, and worms used by hackers for a direct attack on a computer to steal data are called malware. It may enter a computer from an email attachment and spreads it forward. It is always recommended to check for an “HTTPS” connection in the address bar of the browser. Because S indicates secure.
5) Spamming
Sending of malicious messages in bulk, which are irrelevant to an individual through mail or other communication channels is called spamming. Many promoters choose this because there is no investment required for spamming.
6) Spear Phishing
The trail introduced from a trusted or known sender to a target individual for stealing confidential or personal information is called spear phishing. Spear Phishing is targeting a particular individual or an organization for stealing confidential data.
7) MIM Attacks
MIM meaning ‘man in the middle’ is a type of attack in which attackers record or store a conversation between two individuals manipulating them to think they are on a secure private connection. The person in conversation doesn’t even know that the attacker has the whole access of their conversation.
The solution to Cyber Crime
We don’t have total solutions to be protected from cyber attacks but can take some necessary measures to stay secure on the internet.
What Organizations should do?
They should use all available network and cyber security applications to stay secure and get rid of cyber attacks. They should also get Secure Sockets Layer on their web server and applications so that anyone who accesses would get a secure connection.
What Individual should do?
The person should visit only secured and trusted websites and should not respond to any spam emails requesting for personal data or banking details.
Conclusion: The internet is a huge ocean and no one is secure in it.
