1.6 System Security
- Threats posed to
networks
- Malware
- A software which is made to
damage a computers software
- E.g a virus which is
damaging your computer
- A software which is made to
damage a computers software
- Phishing
- attempt to obtain sensitive
information such as
usernames, passwords
- E.g sending emails to
people with their
passwords and personal
details
- attempt to obtain sensitive
information such as
usernames, passwords
- People as the weak point in
secure systems (social
engineering)
- an attack vector that relies heavily on human
interaction and often involves tricking people
into breaking normal security procedures.
- Staff not knowing how a
network works
- an attack vector that relies heavily on human
interaction and often involves tricking people
into breaking normal security procedures.
- Brute force attacks
- A trial and error process in which they
encode passwords using exhaustive
efforts (brute force)
- E.g Hacking talk talk and send
loads of requests until they gave
up
- E.g Hacking talk talk and send
loads of requests until they gave
up
- A trial and error process in which they
encode passwords using exhaustive
efforts (brute force)
- DDOS
- is a type of DOS attack where multiple
compromised which are often infected with a
Trojan, are used to target a single system
causing a Denial of Service (DoS) attack
- such as a server, website or other network resource,
and cause a denial of service for users of the targeted
resource.
- is a type of DOS attack where multiple
compromised which are often infected with a
Trojan, are used to target a single system
causing a Denial of Service (DoS) attack
- Data
interception
and theft
- stealing computer based info
from an unknown person
- E.g getting hacked,
- stealing computer based info
from an unknown person
- SQL
injection
- a computer attack in which it targets a poorly
designed application and attacks the spine of the
system which makes it do things it shouldn't
- E.g An computer without a
antivirus, it'll go to the
computer and then affect the
whole network
- a computer attack in which it targets a poorly
designed application and attacks the spine of the
system which makes it do things it shouldn't
- Poor network policy
- A set of rules for using networks
when they're poorly made can
cause people to hack
- E.g not following policy
rules like leaving computers
unattended
- A set of rules for using networks
when they're poorly made can
cause people to hack
- Malware
- Identifying and preventing
vulnerablilities
- Penetration Testing
- testing yourself how secure your security by
attempting to hack it
- Attempting to break into
your own code
- testing yourself how secure your security by
attempting to hack it
- Network Foreniscs
- Network Policies
- A set of rules followed by people in a
network to keep everyone safe and
prevent hacks
- A set of rules followed by people in a
network to keep everyone safe and
prevent hacks
- Anti-Malware Software
- software that prevents malwares from damaging
your computer
- Found in computers ,
phones etc
- software that prevents malwares from damaging
your computer
- Firewalls
- A type of protection used by anti viruses
- A type of protection used by anti viruses
- User Access Levels
- Different ranked people
can access different types
of data
- E.g the the Janitor won't be
able to access patient files
- Different ranked people
can access different types
of data
- Password
- A code that is yours that no one
knows just for you to keep your
cookies/ things pivate
- the simpler the password
the easier to hack
- A code that is yours that no one
knows just for you to keep your
cookies/ things pivate
- Encryption
- data is broken down into code. To
translate the key is needed
- data is broken down into code. To
translate the key is needed
- Penetration Testing
