Hackers take full advantage of the failure of networks or systems. Insufficient cybersecurity setups at home or in organizations make them vulnerable to hackers. Moreover, cyber security threats should be looked at as a risk that needs to be managed rather than a problem.<br><br>Letu2019s explore cyber threats, types, and top protection methods.<br><br>cyber security?<br>What are Cyber Security Threats?<br>For more info. <a href="https://indiatopbest.in/understanding-cyber-security-threats-solutions/<br>">click here</a><br>

Presentation Transcript

  1. CYBERSECURITY THREATS ARE MALICIOUS ACTIVITIES AND POTENTIAL DANGERS THAT CAN COMPROMISE THE CONFIDENTIALITY, INTEGRITY, AND AVAILABILITY OF DIGITAL INFORMATION AND SYSTEMS. THESE THREATS CAN COME FROM VARIOUS SOURCES, INCLUDING HACKERS, CYBERCRIMINALS, STATE-SPONSERED ACTORS, AND EVEN INTERNAL PERSONNEL.

  2. CONTENTS:- • 1. INTRODUCTION • 2. TYPES OF CYBER THREATS • 3. SOURCES OF CYBER THREATS • 4. SOLUTIONS TO TACKLE CYBER THREATS • 5. CONCLUSION

  3. Introduction:- • Cybersecurity threats are potential risks and vulnerabilities that target computer systems, networks, and digital information. These threats pose significant dangers to individuals, organizations, and even nations.

  4. Malware: Malicious software (viruses, worms, Trojans, ransomware) infects systems, stealing data or demanding ransoms. • Phishing: Trickery emails, websites, or messages to pose as legitimate entities and extract sensitive info like passwords and credit cards. • Social Engineering: Manipulating individuals into getting confidential information through psychological manipulation and deception. • Data Breaches: Unauthorized access or theft of sensitive information, including personal data, financial details, intellectual property, and trade secrets.

  5. Insider Threats: Malicious actions or errors by individuals within an organization who access sensitive data or systems. • Drive-By Downloads: Infecting devices through web browsers or software vulnerabilities on compromised sites. • Ransomware: Encrypting a victim's data and demanding a ransom in exchange for the decryption key, effectively holding the data hostage. • Password Attacks: Attempting to crack passwords using various techniques, such as dictionary attacks, rainbow tables, or credential stuffing.

  6. Sources of cyber threats:- Hackers and Cybercriminals: Individuals or groups using technical skills to illicitly access systems for financial gain, data theft, or disruption. Insiders: Current/former employees, contractors, or partners with system knowledge who exploit access maliciously. Phishers: Deceptive individuals deploying emails, websites, or social engineering to extract sensitive information like passwords and financial data. Scammers: Various scams, including tech support scams, lottery scams, and phishing scams, aim to defraud individuals and organizations. Cybersecurity risks from third-party software, services, or components used within an organization's infrastructure. State-sponsored cyber activities: include warfare, or terrorism, driven by political, economic, or military motives.

  7. Solutions to tackle cyber threats:- Addressing cyber threats requires a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach that involves technical, organizational, and human-centric strategies. Here are some key solutions to consider: Data Encryption: Encrypt sensitive data both at rest and in transit to prevent unauthorized access even if a breach occurs. Regular Backups: Regularly back up critical data and systems to secure locations. This ensures data can be restored in case of a ransomware attack or data breach. Cybersecurity Education and Training: Regularly educate employees and users about cybersecurity best practices, including how to identify phishing attacks, use strong passwords, and follow security protocols.

  8. VENDOR AND THIRD-PARTY RISK MANAGEMENT: • ASSESS THE CYBERSECURITY PRACTICES OF VENDORS AND THIRD-PARTY PARTNERS TO ENSURE THEY MEET YOUR SECURITY STANDARDS. • CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT: • REGULARLY EVALUATE AND ADJUST YOUR CYBERSECURITY STRATEGY BASED ON EMERGING THREATS, INDUSTRY BEST PRACTICES, AND LESSONS LEARNED FROM PREVIOUS INCIDENTS. REMEMBER THAT NO SINGLE SOLUTION CAN PROVIDE COMPLETE PROTECTION AGAINST ALL CYBER THREATS. A COMBINATION OF THESE STRATEGIES, TAILORED TO YOUR ORGANISATIONS SPECIFIC NEEDS, CAN HELP YOU MITIGATE AND MANAGE CYBER RISKS EFFECTIVELY.

  9. CONCLUSION:- The consequences of cyber threats can be severe, including financial losses, data breaches, reputational damage, and even disruptions to essential services. As technology continues to advance, so do the tactics and techniques used by cybercriminals, making it crucial for individuals and organizations to remain vigilant and proactive in their cybersecurity efforts. I hope that my presentation will be helpful for my audience to improve their knowledge about cyber security and to overcome several security loopholes on their computer operation. Also it helps to spread awareness among normal people about emerging security threats. Simple and practical prevention methods are explained to protect your computers from infection.

  10. THANK YOU.
