🍁Types of Network Security Attacks🍁

Some of the most prevalent types of network security attacks that you should have to pay attention.

Data Theft: This is also called data exfiltration, data theft occurs when an attacker uses their unauthorized access to obtain private information from the network. Attackers frequently use stolen login credentials to read protected files or steal the data while it is in transit between two network devices.

Insider Threat: As its name implies, insider threats come from employees within an organization. These employees use their own access to infiltrate the network and obtain sensitive or private company information.

Malware Attacks: A malware attack occurs when a malicious code (malware) inserts undesired, unauthorized software onto a network device. Malware can easily spread from one device to another, making it very difficult to get rid of entirely.

Password Attacks: Any type of attack that involves someone attempting to use a password illegitimately is considered to be a password attack. The hacker may obtain access either by guessing, stealing or cracking a password.

Social Engineering: These attacks use deception and falsehoods to convince others to give up private information, such as an account password, or to violate security protocols. Social engineering attacks often target people who are not tech-savvy, but they may also target technical support staff with false requests for help.

These are only a few most common attacks many ways that hackers may try to infiltrate your network systems, and they will continuously working on developing new, creative ways to do so. Always pay attention to any unusual activity you happen to notice, and don’t hesitate to investigate the matter further.

How to Prevent Vishing Attacks?

Voice phishing attack take place when a person or an AI place a phone call to a potential victim using the guise of an emergency or sense of urgency to confirm your details or identity. During the attack, the attacker can also ask for more information from you. Voice phishing attacks may not always be a negative situation. It can also be news that you potentially won gifts, money, trips, etc.

The major reason for a vishing simulation is to get information like personally identifiable information (PII), medical information, or other sensitive data that can be used to commit identity theft and fraud. The scammer will want you to give the information to them over the phone quickly before you even realize that you are being scammed, hence the reason for urgency.
