What types of threats are there in Cyber Security?
How does your company deal with digital security? In recent years, given the various attacks on large businesses and the impact caused by different data disclosures, this is a topic that has gained space among discussions about IT.
A good digital security policy not only guarantees more reliability for the IT infrastructure, but also brings competitiveness to the business. Furthermore, if processes are structured correctly, the company can align with GDPR standards and avoid fines.
In this sense, a good way to structure digital security processes is to know the main threats.
See the four biggest types of risk:
Phishing
Phishing is the practice of sending fraudulent emails that resemble emails from reputable sources. The goal is to steal sensitive data such as credit card numbers and login information. It is the most common type of cyber attack. You can help protect yourself with education and training, or with a technology solution that filters malicious emails.
Malware
Malware is a type of software designed to gain unauthorized access to or cause damage to your computer.
Social engineering
Malware is a type of software designed to gain unauthorized access to or cause damage to your computer.
Ransomware
Ransomware is a type of malicious software. It is designed to extort money by blocking access to files on the computer, or even the operating system, until the ransom is paid. Paying the ransom does not guarantee that files will be recovered or the system restored..
