Cyber Security

Presentation by Parth Sharma


Introduction

Today’s age cannot be even thought of being


without internet, even in dreams.

Although Internet is very useful nowadays but


still it is very risky too, if not used in a proper
way. And it is important to know about the
possible threats.

Cyber security is not only to keep information


safe and secure, but also being responsible with
that information.
What is Cyber Security?

● Cybersecurity encompasses the technologies,


processes, and practices designed to protect
computers, networks, programs, and data from
unauthorized access, damage, or cyberattacks.

● In an increasingly interconnected world,


cybersecurity is crucial for safeguarding sensitive
information, ensuring business continuity, and
protecting individuals' privacy.
Types of Cyber Threats

● Malware: Malware refers to malicious software designed


to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to
computer systems or data.
Examples: Viruses, worms, Trojans, ransomware.

● Phishing: Phishing involves the use of deceptive emails,


messages, or websites to trick individuals into revealing
sensitive information such as passwords, financial data,
or personal details.
Tactics: Spoofed emails, fake login pages.

● DDoS Attacks: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)


attacks aim to overwhelm a target system, network, or
service with a flood of traffic, rendering it inaccessible to
legitimate users.
Impact: Disruption of services, financial losses.
Cybersecurity Frameworks and Standards

● NIST Cybersecurity Framework: The NIST


Cybersecurity Framework provides a structured
approach for organizations to manage and reduce
cybersecurity risks.

● ISO/IEC 27001: ISO/IEC 27001 is an international


standard for establishing, implementing,
maintaining, and continually improving an
information security management system (ISMS).

● GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation):


GDPR is a regulation in EU law on data protection
and privacy for all individual citizens of the
European Union (EU) and the European Economic
Area (EEA).
Cybersecurity Measures
● Encryption: Encryption is the process of converting data
into a ciphertext to prevent unauthorized access. It ensures
that only authorized parties can access and read the
information.

● Firewalls: Firewalls are network security devices that


monitor and control incoming and outgoing traffic based on
predetermined security rules.

● Antivirus Software: Antivirus software detects, prevents,


and removes malicious software (malware) from
computers and networks.

● Patch Management: Patch management involves the


process of identifying, acquiring, and applying updates.
Cybersecurity Best Practices
● Strong Passwords: Use complex and unique passwords,
avoid dictionary words or predictable patterns.

● Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Two-Factor


Authentication adds an extra layer of security by requiring
users to provide two different authentication factors (e.g.,
password and one-time code) to access an account.

● Regular Backups: Regularly backing up critical data helps


organizations recover from data loss incidents, including
ransomware attacks.

● Employee Training: Educating employees about


cybersecurity risks and best practices is essential for
building a security-conscious culture and reducing the
likelihood of human errors.
Cybersecurity Challenges and Future Trends

● IoT Security: The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT)


devices introduces new cybersecurity challenges,
including device vulnerabilities, data privacy concerns,
and network security risks.

● AI and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity: Artificial


Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies
are increasingly used both by cyber attackers and
defenders to automate tasks, detect anomalies, and
improve threat intelligence.

● Quantum Computing: The emergence of quantum


computing poses a potential threat to current encryption
algorithms, potentially rendering traditional
cryptographic methods vulnerable to decryption.
Conclusion

Recap of Key Points:

● What is Cyber Security


● Types of Cyber Threats.
● Cybersecurity Frameworks and Standards
● Cybersecurity Measures and Best Practices.
● Emerging Challenges and Trends.

By implementing robust cybersecurity measures,


organizations can better protect their digital assets
and mitigate the risks posed by cyber threats. Stay
vigilant and proactive in safeguarding against evolving
cyber threats
