 WHAT IS CYBERSECURITY?
✔Cybersecurity is the practice of
protecting computer systems,
networks, and programs from digital
attacks, damage, or unauthorized
access.

✔It involves implementing measures,

protocols, and technologies to ensure
the confidentiality, integrity, and
availability of information in the
digital realm. © ISACA

TYPES OF CYBER
CRIMES
HACKING
Hacking refers to the unauthorized access,
manipulation, or exploitation of computer
systems, networks, or data usually in a large
organization such as the government.

White Hat Hacking: An ethical hacking where

individuals use their skills to find and fix security
vulnerabilities.
Black Hat Hacking: A darker side of hacking, involving
individuals or groups who exploit vulnerabilities for
malicious purposes.

PHISHING
Phishing is a digital version of fishing where
cybercriminals are attempting to lure people
into revealing sensitive information, such as
passwords or credit card numbers.

This can be done through deceptive emails or messages.

The attacker lures the recipient into clicking on a

link or attachment leading them to a fraudulent site
that captures their sensitive information.

VHISHING
Vhishing is short for ‘voice phishing,’ which
involves defrauding people over the phone,
enticing them to divulge sensitive information.

In this definition of vhishing, the attacker

attempts to grab the victims' data and use it to
their own benefit - typically, to gain
financial advantage.

DENIAL OF SERVICE
A Denial of Service (DoS) attack is a digital
traffic jam that disrupts the normal
functioning of a computer system, network, or
website.

In a DoS attack, the perpetrator overwhelms

the target with a flood of traffic, making it
unable to respond to legitimate requests.

SPAM EMAIL
Spam emails are unsolicited and often
irrelevant messages sent in bulk to a large
number of recipients.

The goal of spam emails can vary—from

promoting products and services to spreading
malware or phishing for sensitive information.

MALWARES
Malware, a.k.a malicious software, is a
broad term that encompasses various
types of harmful software designed to
disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized
access to computer systems, usually for
financial gains.

E.g. viruses, worms, trojans,

ransomware, spyware
TYPES OF MALWARES
Viruses: These attach themselves to
clean files and spread when the infected
file is executed.

Worms: Self-replicating and capable of

spreading across networks without human
intervention.

software, Trojans deceive users into
installing them, allowing malicious
activities.

Ransomware: Encrypts files on a user's

system, demanding payment (often in
cryptocurrency) for their release.

activities without their knowledge.

Adware: Bombards endless ads and pop-up

windows that could potentially be
dangerous for your device.

they give up confidential information
CATFISHING
Catfishing is the act of pretending to be
someone you're not online, usually with the
intention of deceiving others, often for
personal gain, emotional manipulation, or
even just to create a false persona. The term
originally referred to the practice of using
fake profiles to lure people into romantic or
social relationships, but it can also extend
to other forms of online deception.

WHAT IS AI?
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Artificial Intelligence is the simulation of

human intelligence processes by machines,
especially computer systems.

a) Narrow AI (Weak AI): Designed for a particular

task (e.g., virtual assistants).
b) General AI (Strong AI): Capable of
understanding, learning, and performing any
intellectual task that a human can.
