Causes of Cyber Data Breaches ● Understanding the key factors leading to security vulnerabilities.
Human Errors & Insider Threats ● Weak Passwords: Poor password management leading to unauthorized access. Phishing Attacks: Employees falling victim to deceptive emails. Unintentional Data Exposure: Accidental leaks due to improper handling of sensitive information. Malicious Insiders: Employees or partners misusing their access privileges. ● ● ●
System Vulnerabilities & Software Exploits ● ● Unpatched Software: Outdated applications with known security flaws. Zero-Day Attacks: Exploitation of unknown vulnerabilities before a fix is available. Misconfigured Systems: Improper security settings leading to unauthorized access. Third-Party Risks: Compromised security in external vendors affecting organizations. ● ●
Cyber Threats & Attack Vectors ● Ransomware Attacks: Encrypting data and demanding ransom payments. Malware & Spyware: Malicious software infiltrating systems to steal or corrupt data. Denial of Service (DoS) Attacks: Overloading systems to cause disruptions. Social Engineering Tactics: Manipulating users into divulging confidential information. ● ● ●
