I am writting this blog for general awarness about cyber crimes. Presently this is the time of Internet, we are fully dependent and become habitual of internet. Our personal information, email id, contact details , photographs are easily available and accessable through social media eg. Facebook, Instagram,Twitter Whatapp etc. I would like to share some technical information about cyber crimes and security. first let us understand what is cybercrime and what is cyber security.
Cybercrime is defined as a crime in which a computer is the object of the crime (hacking, phishing, spamming) or is used as a tool to commit an offense (child pornography, hate crimes). Cybercriminals may use computer technology to access personal information, business trade secrets or use the internet for exploitative or malicious purposes. Criminals can also use computers for communication and document or data storage. Criminals who perform these illegal activities are often referred to as hackers.
Cyber security consists of technologies, processes and controls designed to protect systems, networks, programs, devices and data from cyber attacks. Effective cyber security reduces the risk of cyber attacks and protects against the unauthorised exploitation of systems, networks and technologies.
cyber security is important because government, military, corporate, financial, and medical organizations collect, process, and store unprecedented amounts of data on computers and other devices. A significant portion of that data can be sensitive information, whether that be intellectual property, financial data, personal information, or other types of data for which unauthorized access or exposure could have negative consequences.
As the volume and sophistication of cyber attacks grow, companies and organizations, especially those that are tasked with safeguarding information relating to national security, health, or financial records, need to take steps to protect their sensitive business and personnel information. cyber security protectecting your cyber assets and critical data.
cyber security using tools and technologies, processes, and practices designed to protect networks, devices, programs, and data from attack, damage, or unauthorized access.
