  2. What is SQL Injection & its Attacks SQL injection is a type of web application vulnerability where an attacker can manipulate and submit a SQL command to retrieve the database information. This type of attack mostly occurs when a web application executes by using the user-provided data without validating or encoding it. It can give access to sensitive information such as social security numbers, credit card numbers, or other financial data to the attacker and allows an attacker to create, read, update, alter, or delete data stored in the backend database. It is a flaw in web applications and not a database or web server issue. Most programmers are still not aware of this threat. Attacks : On the basis of application used and the way it processes user supplied data, SQL injection can be used to implement the attacks mentioned below: Authentication bypass : Here the attacker could enter into the network without providing any authentic user name or password and could gain access over the network. he or she gets the highest privilege in the network. Information disclosure : After the unauthorized entry into the network, the attacjer gets access to sensitive data stored in the database. Compromised data integrity : The attacker changes the main content of the website and also enters malicious content into it. Compromiused availibility of data : The attacker uses this type of attack to delete the data related to audit information or any other crucial database information. Remote code execution : An attacker could modify, delete, or create data or even can create new accounts with full user rights on the server that shares files and folders. It allows an attacker to compromise the host operating system.
  3. Description In recent years, the international order from the Ukraine to the United States has been seriously impacted by botnets, the remotely controlled networks of computers with nefarious intentions. The virus, ransomware, and disruptive services offered by various botnets have a variety of unique consequences and characteristics. Therefore, strengthening the defenses against them is crucial. To more or less successfully combat botnets, one should examine their code, communication, kill chain, and other technological characteristics. However, the Business Model for Information Security asserts that in addition to technology characteristics, their skills and behavior also have a human and organizational component. The purpose of this course is to describe the elements of various attacks and to give a framework for analysing the technical and human characteristics of botnets. Five botnet attacks were used as case studies for testing the specified framework. ElectrumDoSMiner, Emote, Gamover Zeus, Mirani, and VPNFilter were the botnets that were selected. The comparison concentrated on the following factors: motivation, the used business model, cooperation readiness, capabilities, and attack source. Due to the dynamic behavior of cyberspace and botnets, it is difficult for defending organizations to achieve the target level of defending capabilities with a one-time development. The methods described in this research should be used to construct cyber defense and gather threat intelligence on botnets. According to the BMIS paradigm, this framework combines human and technology characteristics, giving the defender a uniform classification system. This is a beginners course that is aimed at explaining what BotNets are, how they are built and operated. It also discusses how BotNets attack and have avoided detection in the past by Anti Virus solutions. This course starts with the basics then moves on to more details and then finally shows examples of BotNets and how to detect if clients are infected with BotNet clients. After the course you will be able to: Explain what a BotNet is Explain and describe the components and architecture of BotNets Explain the ecosystem of BotNets Explain BaaS (BotNet as a Service) Explain different types of BotNets Explain the difference between SocialBots and “normal” BotNets Discover infected clients that are part of a BotNet Understand different types of attacks that BotNets can do This course is meant to give any student that takes it critical knowledge and skills to understand the unique threats that BotNets pose to an entity. Who this course is for: People interested or involved in IT Security or Cyber Security People Interested in IT Forensics and Cyber Espionage, War and Crime attack tools People interested in understanding Botnets and other security threats when using the Internet or any computer Red, Blue and Rainbow Team Members that want some more hands on experience with Botnets, Detection and Analysis Requirements Be curious about computers and technology Have a working knowledge of computers and smartphones Be interested in learning about security threats and how they are made Know a little bit about networks, clients and analysis [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
  4. Learn how to defend against one of the most prevalent and dangerous forms of cyber attacks today Description Phishing is one of the most prevalent and dangerous forms of cyber attacks today. It impacts individuals and organizations all over the world, and even some of the most widely publicized (and damaging) data breaches / ransomware infections all started with a successful phishing attack. Given the massive role that phishing has had in recent (and historical) high profile cyberattacks it would be reasonable to conclude that its "days are numbered". Unfortunately, the opposite appears to be true with phishing attacks continuing to grow in number and sophistication every day. This course will help you understand exactly what phishing is (and where it all started), how phishing works (through live hacking demonstrations), and how to defend against it (using a new "low-tech" approach you've likely never seen before)! No advanced technical knowledge is required, and if you've ever sent or received an email before you're ready to take the course!

Who this course is for: Everyone from families, students, senior adults, business professionals, and even IT / Cyber professionals will gain something valuable from this course This course is also an excellent option for employers looking to provide cybersecurity awareness training to staff [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
  5. Learn web server log analysis and identify malicious traffic. Description Some Important Questions. Are you curious on how an attack pattern looks when a web application is under a malicious attack? Are you interested in knowing the basics of attack detection and what tools and techniques are used when we want to detect an attack on a web application or an authentication service like SSH or FTP? Do you want to develop a basic skillset on reading and deciphering the interesting information in logs & add value to your existing skills? You could be an application developer, a network administrator, a security professional who would like to gain the skills to detect and pinpoint attacks by malicious actors and protect your web applications. About the course This course is designed with a sole purpose to educate learners about the immense value the web server and authentication logs or logs in general store and how the information in these logs can be helpful to detect any ongoing attack that your webserver or authentication service might be under. Or an attack that already have taken place. This course explains the basics of web servers and how the logging is done on the web servers default logging locations. We also explain about the structure of logs & default logging locations for the widely used web servers - Apache, Nginx & Microsoft IIS. Authentication servers like SSH & FTP as these too often come under bruteforce attack. Course teaching methodology We focus on both theoretical & practical aspects of log analysis. So we work in both the ways - as an attacker who would try to attack the application / SSH / FTP services & a defender, who will analyse the logs using multiple tools and visualise how the logs of an application under attack can look like. We setup a test environment with a victim machine and an attacker machine and generate both normal and malicious traffic and then use the generated logs to investigate the common attack pattern and learn the typicality of an attack and educate ourselves on how the attacks look in the logs and appreciate how logs store valuable information which is often overlooked. This will ensure that learners will get hands-on experience on the concept of log analysis and utilise this basic skillset in their day-to-day security or administrative tasks & activities. We also discuss about the best practices from multiple standard sources that can be implemented to ensure that the logging is done at an optimum level and stay vigilant. By the end of the course, you will gain a foundational understanding on: Grasp the basics of logging concepts, its importance and standard log formats & log storage location for web servers like Apache, Nginx & Microsoft IIS. Authentication services like SSH & FTP. Identify the Malicious traffic that gets logged and ascertain if the application / service is under active attack or has been attacked and learn about the potential point of attack. Gain a broad insight on best logging practices as per the OWASP guidelines and develop an understanding on ways in which you can implement a robust logging for your IT assets. Gain an overall thought process for analysing any of the logs of system and troubleshoot and pinpoint an issue. Who this course is for: Cyber Security professionals who want to learn to detect attacks from logs. Network administrators wanting to develop basic skills for log analysis. Application Developers - wanting to quickly detect security issues that might be occuring. Students wanting to enhance their knowledge in log analysis. [Hidden Content] [hide][Hidden Content]]

  7. How do you prevent ransomware attacks ? To protect against ransomware threats and other types of cyberextortion, security experts urge users to do the following: - Back up computing devices regularly. - Inventory all assets. - Update software, including antivirus software. - Have end users avoid clicking on links in emails or opening email attachments from strangers. - Avoid paying ransoms. - Avoid giving out personal information. - Do not use unknown USB sticks. - Only use known download sources. - Personalize antispam settings. - Monitor the network for suspicious activity. - Use a segmented network. - Adjust security software to scan compressed and archived files. - Disable the web after spotting a suspicious process on a computer. While ransomware attacks may be nearly impossible to stop, individuals and organizations can take important data protection measures to ensure that damage is minimal and recovery is as quick as possible. Strategies include the following: • Compartmentalize authentication systems and domains. • Keep up-to-date storage snapshots outside the primary storage pool. • Enforce hard limits on who can access data and when access is permitted.
  8. How do ransomware attacks work ? - Ransomware kits on the deep web have enabled cybercriminals to purchase and use software tools to create ransomware with specific capabilities. They can then generate this malware for their own distribution, with ransoms paid to their bitcoin accounts. As with much of the rest of the information technology world, it is now possible for those with little or no technical background to order inexpensive ransomware as a service (RaaS) and launch attacks with minimal effort. - One of the more common methods of delivering ransomware attacks is through a phishing email. An attachment the victim thinks they can trust is added to an email as a link. Once the victim clicks on that link, the malware in the file begins to download. - Other more aggressive forms of ransomware will exploit security holes to infect a system, so they do not have to rely on tricking users. The malware can also be spread through chat messages, removable Universal Serial Bus (USB) drives or browser plugins. - Once the malware is in a system, it will begin encrypting the victim's data. It will then add an extension to the files, making them inaccessible. Once this is done, the files cannot be decrypted without a key known only by the attacker. The ransomware will then display a message to the victim, explaining that files are inaccessible and can only be accessed again upon paying a ransom to the attackers -- commonly in the form of bitcoin.
  9. In an unprecedented move, Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), the country's principal security agency, on Friday disclosed that it arrested several members belonging to the notorious REvil ransomware gang and neutralized its operations. The surprise takedown, which it said was carried out at the request of the U.S. authorities, saw the law enforcement agency conduct raids at 25 addresses in the cities of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Leningrad and Lipetsk regions that belonged to 14 suspected members of the organized cybercrime syndicate. "In order to implement the criminal plan, these persons developed malicious software, organized the theft of funds from the bank accounts of foreign citizens and their cashing, including through the purchase of expensive goods on the Internet," the FSB said in a statement. In addition, the FSB seized over 426 million rubles, including in cryptocurrency, $600,000, €500,000, as well as computer equipment, crypto wallets used to commit crimes, and 20 luxury cars that were purchased with money obtained by illicit means. One of the most active ransomware crews last year, REvil took responsibility for high-profile attacks against JBS and Kaseya, among a string of several others. The U.S. government told Reuters that one of the arrested individuals was also behind the ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline in May 2021, once again confirming REvil's connections to a second collective called DarkSide. The group formally closed shop in October 2021 after the U.S. intervened to take its network of dark web servers offline. The next month, law enforcement authorities announced the arrest of seven individuals for their roles as affiliates of the REvil ransomware family, even as the U.S. charged a 22-year-old Ukrainian citizen linked to the ransomware gang for orchestrating the Kaseya ransomware attack. All those detained have been charged with "illegal circulation of means of payment," a criminal offense punishable by up to six years in prison. The suspects weren't named, but Reuters noted that a Moscow court identified two of the men as Roman Muromsky and Andrei Bessonov. The crackdown also comes as threat actors likely affiliated with Russian secret services crippled much of the Ukrainian government's public-facing digital infrastructure, in addition to defacing some of them with messages that alleged people's personal data had been made public and that the information stored in the servers was being destroyed. It remains to be what impact the arrests will have on the larger ransomware ecosystem, which has by and large continued to flourish despite a number of law enforcement actions, partly driven by Russia's willingness to look the other way when it comes to harboring cybercriminals in the country, effectively allowing the bad actors to operate with impunity. "While we are still looking to understand the true impact of these arrests, we applaud the Russian government for the actions it took today with regard to the REvil criminal ransomware group," Matt Olney, director of threat intelligence and interdiction at Cisco Talos, told The Hacker News. "It's important that criminal cyber actors and organizations not be allowed to operate with impunity. And so any result that leads to degrading of their capabilities is undoubtedly a good thing."

  10. Types of social engineering attacks Popular types of social engineering attacks include the following techniques : - Baiting : An attacker leaves a malware-infected physical device, such as a Universal Serial Bus flash drive, in a place it is sure to be found. The target then picks up the device and inserts it into their computer, unintentionally installing the malware. - Phishing : When a malicious party sends a fraudulent email disguised as a legitimate email, often purporting to be from a trusted source. The message is meant to trick the recipient into sharing financial or personal information or clicking on a link that installs malware. - Spear phishing : This is like phishing, but the attack is tailored for a specific individual or organization. - Vishing : Also known as voice phishing, vishing involves the use of social engineering over the phone to gather financial or personal information from the target. - Whaling : A specific type of phishing attack, a whaling attack targets high-profile employees, such as the chief financial officer or chief executive officer, to trick the targeted employee into disclosing sensitive information.These three types of phishing attacks fall under the wider umbrella of social engineering. - Pretexting : One party lies to another to gain access to privileged data. For example, a pretexting scam could involve an attacker who pretends to need financial or personal data to confirm the identity of the recipient. - Scareware : This involves tricking the victim into thinking their computer is infected with malware or has inadvertently downloaded illegal content. The attacker then offers the victim a solution that will fix the bogus problem; in reality, the victim is simply tricked into downloading and installing the attacker's malware. - Watering hole : The attacker attempts to compromise a specific group of people by infecting websites they are known to visit and trust with the goal of gaining network access. - Diversion theft : In this type of attack, social engineers trick a delivery or courier company into going to the wrong pickup or drop-off location, thus intercepting the transaction. - Quid pro quo : This is an attack in which the social engineer pretends to provide something in exchange for the target's information or assistance. For instance, a hacker calls a selection of random numbers within an organization and pretends to be a technical support specialist responding to a ticket. Eventually, the hacker will find someone with a legitimate tech issue whom they will then pretend to help. Through this interaction, the hacker can have the target type in the commands to launch malware or can collect password information. - Honey trap : In this attack, the social engineer pretends to be an attractive person to interact with a person online, fake an online relationship and gather sensitive information through that relationship. - Tailgating : Sometimes called piggybacking, tailgating is when a hacker walks into a secured building by following someone with an authorized access card. This attack presumes the person with legitimate access to the building is courteous enough to hold the door open for the person behind them, assuming they are allowed to be there. - Rogue security software : This is a type of malware that tricks targets into paying for the fake removal of malware. - Dumpster diving : This is a social engineering attack whereby a person searches a company's trash to find information, such as passwords or access codes written on sticky notes or scraps of paper, that could be used to infiltrate the organization's network. - Pharming : With this type of online fraud, a cybercriminal installs malicious code on a computer or server that automatically directs the user to a fake website, where the user may be tricked into providing personal information.
  11. What are the most well-known cyber attacks ? The massive so-called SolarWinds attack, detected in December 2020, breached U.S. federal agencies, infrastructure and private corporations in what is believed to be among the worst cyberespionage attacks inflicted on the U.S. On Dec. 13, 2020, it was revealed that Austin-based IT management software company SolarWinds was hit by a supply chain attack that compromised updates for its Orion software platform. As part of this attack, threat actors inserted their own malware, now known as Sunburst or Solorigate, into the updates, which were distributed to many SolarWinds customers. The first confirmed victim of this backdoor was cybersecurity firm FireEye, which had disclosed on Dec. 8 that it had been breached by suspected nation-state hackers. It was soon revealed that SolarWinds attacks affected other organizations, including tech giants Micrososft and VMware and many U.S. government agencies. Investigations showed that the hackers -- believed to be sponsored by the Russian government -- had been infiltrating targeted systems undetected since March 2020. As of January 2021, investigators were still trying to determine the scope of the attack. • Here is a rundown of some of the most notorious breaches, dating back to 2009: - a July 2020 attack on Twitter, in which hackers were able to access the Twitter accounts of high-profile users. - another 2016 attack, this time at FriendFinder, which said more than 20 years' worth of data belonging to 412 million users was compromised. - a data breach at Yahoo in 2016 that exposed personal information contained within 500 million user accounts, which was then followed by news of another attack that compromised 1 billion user accounts. - a 2014 attack against entertainment company Sony, which compromised both personal data and corporate intellectual property (IP), including yet-to-be-released films, with U.S. officials blaming North Korea for the hack; - eBay's May 2014 announcement that hackers used employee credentials to collect personal information on its 145 million users.
  12. 6 common types of cyber attacks and how to prevent them Cybercrime is a clear and present risk to governments, businesses and individuals; according to the World Economic Forum Global Risks Report 2020, cyber attacks rank first among global human-caused risks. The motivation behind cyber attacks has become more varied over the past few years, with disinformation and disruption joining the regular drivers of data theft, extortion and vandalism, and the challenges they present have many security teams on the back foot. Cyber attacks hit organizations every day: Just in the network activity of its own customers, CrowdStrike detected around 41,000 potential attacks between January and June this year compared with 35,000 for all of last year, while IT Governance reported 586,771,602 leaked records in November 2020 alone. RiskIQ predicted that, by 2021, cybercrime will cost the world $11.4 million every minute. These costs are both tangible and intangible, including not only direct loss of assets, revenue and productivity, but also loss of business confidence, trust and reputational damage. Cybercrime is built around the efficient exploitation of vulnerabilities, and security teams are always at a disadvantage because they must defend all possible entry points, while an attacker only needs to find and exploit one weakness or vulnerability. This asymmetry highly favors any attacker, with the result that even large enterprises struggle to prevent cybercriminals from monetizing access to their networks -- networks that typically must maintain open access and connectivity while trying to protect enterprise resources. Not only large organizations are at risk of cyber attack; cybercriminals will use any internet-connected device as a weapon, a target or both, and SMBs tend to deploy less sophisticated cybersecurity measures. So, which are the most damaging cyber attacks, and how do they work? Here are the six most damaging types of cyber attacks. 1. Malware Malware, or malicious software, is an umbrella term used to refer to a hostile or intrusive program or file that is designed to exploit devices at the expense of the user and to the benefit of the attacker. There are various types of malware, but they all use evasion and obfuscation techniques designed to not only fool users, but also evade security controls so they can install themselves on a system or device surreptitiously without permission. Here are some of the most common types of malware: Ransomware. Currently, the most feared form of malware is ransomware -- a program designed to encrypt a victim's files and then demand a ransom in order to receive the decryption key. There have been several noticeable ransomware attacks in 2020. The Clop ransomware has been implicated in major breaches of biopharmaceutical firm ExecuPharm, Indian business group Indiabulls, the U.K.'s EV Cargo Logistics and Germany's Software AG, where the ransom was allegedly $20 million to be paid in bitcoins. If the ransom is not paid, the hackers usually post stolen data online. At the time of writing, the PLEASE_READ_ME ransomware had breached at least 85,000 servers worldwide and had put up for sale at least 250,000 stolen databases. Trojans. A Trojan horse is a program downloaded and installed on a computer that appears harmless but is, in fact, malicious. Typically, this malware is hidden in an innocent-looking email attachment or free download. When the user clicks on the email attachment or downloads the free program, the hidden malware is transferred to the user's computing device. Once inside, the malicious code executes whatever task the attacker designed it to perform. Often, this is to launch an immediate attack, but they can also create a backdoor for the hacker to use in future attacks. Spyware. Once installed, spyware monitors the victim's internet activity, tracks login credentials and spies on sensitive information -- all without the user's consent or knowledge. The primary goal is usually to obtain credit card numbers, banking information and passwords, which are sent back to the attacker. Recent victims include Google Play users in South and Southeast Asia, but spyware is also used by government agencies: Human rights activists and journalists in India and Uzbekistan and Pakistani government officials were all targeted in 2020. 2. DDoS A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an attack in which multiple compromised computer systems attack a target, such as a server, website or other network resource, and cause a denial of service for users of the targeted resource. The flood of incoming messages, connection requests or malformed packets to the target system forces it to slow down or even crash and shut down, thereby denying service to legitimate users or systems. Some 4.8 million DDoS attacks took place in the first half of 2020, a 15% increase over 2019, with the month of May's 929,000 DDoS attacks marking the largest number of attacks ever seen in a month. Attackers are also harnessing the power of AI to understand what kinds of attack techniques work best and to direct their botnets -- slave machines used to perform DDoS attacks -- accordingly. Worryingly, AI is being used to enhance all forms of cyber attack. 3. Phishing A phishing attack is a form of fraud in which an attacker masquerades as a reputable entity, such as a bank, tax department, or person in email or in other forms of communication, to distribute malicious links or attachments to trick an unsuspecting victim into handing over valuable information, such as passwords, credit card details, intellectual property and so on. It is easy to launch a phishing campaign, and they are surprisingly effective. Spear phishing attacks are directed at specific individuals or companies, while whaling attacks are a type of spear phishing attack that specifically targets senior executives within an organization. One type of whaling attack is the business email compromise (BEC), where the attacker targets specific employees who have the ability to authorize financial transactions in order to trick them into transferring money into an account controlled by the attacker. A 2019 FBI cybercrime report indicated that losses from BEC attacks were approximately $1.7 billion. 4. SQL injection attacks Any website that is database-driven -- and that is the majority of websites -- is susceptible to SQL injection attacks. An SQL query is a request for some action to be performed on a database, and a carefully constructed malicious request can create, modify or delete the data stored in the database, as well as read and extract data such as intellectual property, personal information of customers, administrative credentials or private business details. A SQL injection attack this year was used to steal the emails and password hashes of 8.3 million Freepik and Flaticon users. 5. XSS This is another type of injection attack in which an attacker injects data, such as a malicious script, into content from otherwise trusted websites. Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks can occur when an untrusted source is allowed to inject its own code into a web application and that malicious code is included with dynamic content delivered to a victim's browser. This allows an attacker to execute malicious scripts written in various languages, like JavaScript, Java, Ajax, Flash and HTML, in another user's browser. XSS enables an attacker to steal session cookies, allowing the attacker to pretend to be the user, but it can also be used to spread malware, deface websites, create havoc on social networks, phish for credentials and -- in conjunction with social engineering techniques -- perpetrate more damaging attacks. XSS has been a constant attack vector used by hackers and tops the 2020 list of the 25 most dangerous software weaknesses compiled by Common Weakness Enumeration. 6. Botnets A botnet comprises a collection of internet-connected computers and devices that are infected and controlled remotely by cybercriminals. They are often used to send email spam, engage in click fraud campaigns, and generate malicious traffic for DDoS attacks. The objective for creating a botnet is to infect as many connected devices as possible and to use the computing power and resources of those devices to automate and magnify the malicious activities. IoT botnet threats were one of the fastest growing categories of threats in the first half of 2020, according to a report by Nozomi Networks Labs. While these cyber attacks continue to plague and damage organizations of all sizes, there are plenty of others that security teams need to defend against, such as man-in-the-middle and eavesdropping attacks, where an attacker intercepts the communication between two parties in an attempt to steal or alter it. As most email and chat systems now use end-to-end encryption and employees use a VPN to access company networks, these attacks are becoming less effective. However, security teams need to ensure DNS traffic is monitored for malicious activity to prevent DNS tunneling attacks, where hackers "tunnel" malware into DNS queries to create a persistent communication channel that most firewalls are unable to detect. How to prevent common types of cyber attacks The more people and devices a network connects, the greater the value of the network, which makes it harder to raise the cost of an attack to the point where hackers will give up. Metcalfe's Law asserts that the value of a network is proportional to the square of its connected users. So, security teams have to accept that their networks will be under constant attack, but by understanding how different types of cyber attacks work, mitigating controls and strategies can be put in place to minimize the damage they can do. Here are the main points to keep in mind: Hackers, of course, first need to gain a foothold in a network before they can achieve whatever objectives they have, so they need to find and exploit one or more vulnerabilities or weaknesses in their victim's IT infrastructure. Vulnerabilities are either human- or technology-based, and according to data from the U.K. Information Commissioner's Office, human error was the cause of approximately 90% of data breaches in 2019, with phishing as the primary cause. Errors can be either unintentional actions or lack of action, from downloading a malware-infected attachment to failing to use a strong password. This makes security awareness training a top priority in the fight against cyber attacks, and as attack techniques are constantly evolving, training needs to be constantly updated as well to ensure users are alerted to the latest types of attack. A cyber attack simulation campaign can assess the level of cyber awareness among employees with additional training where there are obvious shortcomings. While security-conscious users can reduce the success rate of most cyber attacks, a defense-in-depth strategy is also essential. These should be tested regularly via vulnerability assessments and penetration tests to check for exploitable security vulnerabilities. Finally, to deal with zero-day exploits, where cybercriminals discover and exploit a previously unknown vulnerability before a fix becomes available, enterprises need to consider adding content disarm and reconstruction to their threat prevention controls as it assumes all content is malicious so it doesn't need to try to detect constantly evolving malware functionality. Security strategies and budgets need to build in the ability to adapt and deploy new security controls if the connected world is going to survive the never-ending battle against cyber attacks.
  13. How do cyber attacks work ? - Threat actors use various techniques to launch cyber attacks, depending in large part on whether they're attacking a targeted or an untargeted entity. - In an untargeted attack, where the bad actors are trying to break into as many devices or systems as possible, they generally look for vulnerabilities that will enable them to gain access without being detected or blocked. They might use, for example, a phishing attack, emailing large numbers of people with socially engineered messages crafted to entice recipients to click a link that will download malicious code. - In a targeted attack, the threat actors are going after a specific organization, and methods used vary depending on the attack's objectives. The hacktivist group Anonymous, for example, was suspected in a 2020 distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack on the Minneapolis Police Department website after a Black man died while being arrested by Minneapolis officers. Hackers also use spear-phishing campaigns in a targeted attack, crafting emails to specific individuals who, if they click included links, would download malicious software designed to subvert the organization's technology or the sensitive data it holds. - Cyber criminals often create the software tools to use in their attacks, and they frequently share those on the so-called dark web. - Cyber attacks often happen in stages, starting with hackers surveying or scanning for vulnerabilities or access points, initiating the initial compromise and then executing the full attack -- whether it's stealing valuable data, disabling the computer systems or both.
  14. Why do cyber attacks happen? Cyber attacks are designed to cause damage. They can have various objectives, including the following : Financial gain : Most cyber attacks today, especially those against commercial entities, are launched by cybercriminals for financial gain. These attacks often aim to steal sensitive data, such as customer credit card numbers or employee personal information, which the cybercriminals then use to access money or goods using the victims' identities. Disruption and revenge : Bad actors also launch attacks specifically to sow chaos, confusion, discontent, frustration or mistrust. They could be taking such action as a way to get revenge for acts taken against them. They could be aiming to publicly embarrass the attacked entities or to damage the organizations' reputation. These attacks are often directed at government entities but can also hit commercial entities or nonprofit organizations. Nation-state attackers are behind some of these types of attacks. Others, called hacktivists, might launch these types of attacks as a form of protest against the targeted entity; a secretive decentralized group of internationalist activists known as Anonymous is the most well known of such groups. Cyberwarfare : Governments around the world are also involved in cyber attacks, with many national governments acknowledging or suspected of designing and executing attacks against other countries as part of ongoing political, economic and social disputes. These types of attacks are classified as cyberwarfare.
  15. Knowing your customers' needs is key to customer satisfaction. Your high-quality products and services will depend on the information you gather about them. Data generation and analysis are essential. In a large business, the benefits of big data analytics are invaluable to making well-informed decisions. Is it possible to use big data analytics to prevent cyber threats? You will learn about What Is Big Data Analytics and How to Prevent Cyber Security Attacks in this article. What Is Big Data Analytics? Big data consists of data in high volumes, variety, and velocity. You deal with customers who produce tons of unstructured and raw data. Today, businesses generate more data than ever using advanced technologies involving Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT). Big data analytics enable companies with large amounts of data to analyze it more easily. A big data analytics project entails analyzing data sets to understand and predict behaviors. Companies use analytic techniques and software to interpret large quantities of consumer data that help them to understand their customers, meet their needs, and position themselves strategically. 5 ways that big data analytics can help prevent cyber threats Increasing data generation makes cyber-threats more likely. It is in the interest of cybercriminals to compromise the large amounts of information that big businesses produce. The use of data analytics is creating good cyber defenses, even though we still have a long way to go. We're going to explore some ways big data analytics reduces cybersecurity risks. 1. 1. Predictive Modeling When you observe cyber threat patterns, you can create predictive models that send you alerts whenever an attack occurs at an entry point. Cyber threat patterns emerge by using artificial intelligence and machine learning services. With a real-time defense system, you can limit a cyber threat that extends beyond a network's touchpoint. 1. 2. Automating and monitoring at scale Employee ignorance of cybersecurity practices results in a high rate of cyberattacks in many organizations. Your employees might help attackers gain access to your network if they don't know how to avoid an attack. Furthermore, big data analytics can help your organization foster a cybersecurity culture by continuously tracking employee activity. By limiting the effect of someone's action, your network remains safe. 3. Live detection of intrusions An attacker can bring down a network in one shot. Protect your network from such an attack. You can detect an attack before it reaches the network's entry point by installing intrusion detection systems. Big data analytics enables you to automate this type of process at scale. An intrusion detection system that analyzes data in real-time can reveal details of an attack so you can block it. Then, you can use this information to nullify an attack on the ground instantly. 1. 4.Managing risks intelligently Knowing about potential threats will give you a better defense. Analyzing big data can help you gain insight into the activities within and around your network. A detailed analysis of cyber-security data provides a clear understanding of how attacks originate, allowing you to pinpoint the root cause. 2. 5.Visualizing threats Analytics of such vast data allows you to make more accurate predictions about the activities within your network, enabling you to be proactive about cybersecurity. The use of advanced data analytics can provide insight into cyberattacks that have occurred at an organization. Summary Don't allow cybercriminals to penetrate your network. The most common reason for cyberattacks is human error or network blind spots. A loophole exists or a cybercriminal has taken advantage of you. By using big data analytics, you gain vital insight into your system's operation. And, if anything goes wrong, you'll be able to get a real-time response to rectify the problem. The importance of big data analytics in the digital age is increasing every day.

Students will learn to configure systems to log events, as well as to analyze system events. What is Log Analysis? All networks, computers, and other IT systems generate a record of system activities. The document that shows those activities is called an audit trail record or log. Log analysis is the process of reviewing and evaluating the records of system activities to help organizations mitigate certain risks and stay in compliance with regulations. How Does Log Analysis Work? Logs are typically created by operating systems, network devices, applications, and smart devices. They consist of several messages that are arranged chronologically and then stored in a file, on a disk, or in an application. Once the log information is collected, it can be analyzed to identify patterns and anomalies, like network intrusions. Log analysis components work together to identify the root causes for the anomalies or other unstructured data. Regular log analysis helps reduce and avoid various risks that are associated with the enterprise. The analysis provides evidence of what happened, the factors that determined the cause, and the impact of what occurred. This allows IT professionals to build countermeasures and models to mitigate risks. Log analysis is usually performed due to security or audit compliance, security incident responses, forensics, or system troubleshooting. Why is Log Analysis Important? There are many reasons that log analysis is important. It can serve various different purposes including: Maintaining compliance with internal cybersecurity policies and external regulations and audits To understand and mitigate data breaches and other types of security incidents To understand user behavior To conduct forensics for investigations To troubleshoot computers, systems, or networks For some types of organizations, conduction of log analysis is mandatory if they are to be certified as compliant with certain regulations. However, log analysis can be very useful to all types of organizations as it saves time when attempting to diagnose a problem, resolve an issue, or manage infrastructure or applications. What is Involved in This Log Analysis Training Course? In this log analysis training, students will gain a foundational understanding of log analysis. They will be introduced to the tools that are needed to help identify network intrusion. The students will participate in lab activities that cover processing logs with the Windows operating system and applying learned analytical skills to configure systems to log events, as well as to analyze system events.
