网络攻击的识别与防范

网络攻击的识别与防范

网络攻击的识别与防范作者:傅颖来源:《英语世界》2021年第01期Cyber-attacks may sound like something that happens only in Hollywood movies. You picture a team of talented hackers gathered around computer monitors trying to break into a secure bank or government server. In reality, cyber-attacks are much less exciting but no less dangerous.A typical attack involves a cybercriminal sending out thousands or even millions of links and files. They assume that someone will eventually fall for their trap and open an infected file or page. Somebody always does. The best way to protect yourself is to learn how to recognize cyber-attacks as well as how to prevent them from happening in the first place.Cyber-attacks can happen to anybodyIt doesn’t matter wh o you are; cybercriminals can target you. While many often think of hacking victims as clueless about digital security best practices,this isn’t always the case. Hackers are smart. True,there are plenty of apparent scams like the “Nigerian Prince” emails1. But there are as many attacks that can fool even the savviest computer users.Nowadays,cybercriminals create fake websites and email addresses. You may think you’re clicking a link to Dropbox2 only to download malware onto your computer. And you may never know when you have visited the wrong site and downloaded an infected file. So,it’s up to you to be vigilant and protect yourself.How to recognize the signs of cyber-attackYou need to recognize suspicious activity on your accounts or devices. While some things may be obvious such as account password changes,others aren’t so easy to spot. Usually, hackers insert pieces of code into legitimate files and programs. And then, you might receive a file from a trusted sender whose email has been compromised. Sometimes, the data are even real, but the hacker may have inserted a few lines of code that can also infect your computer.You should take the time to check your “Task Manager” to get a sense of what programs are runnin g. Check anything suspicious that’s running in the background. That’s often the sign of malware.Other things to watch out for include:Random device or internet slowdown.The software you don’t recognize.Browser extensions.Additional pop-ups.Inability to access your account.Unscheduled shutdowns and restarts.What should I do if my computer is infected?You need to act right away. The longer hackers can access your device and accounts, the more damage they can do. Start an antivirus scan to see if it can identify and isolate the problem. Do not delete any files as hackers may have wrapped them up with your core system. Only use antivirus software to remove infected files.For your online accounts,the first step is to change your passwords. Don’t think only about the account in question. The hack may have compromised the connected accounts. For example, many people use social logins through Google or Facebook to link a variety of accounts. Or they reuse the same password. You’ll need to go through each of these accounts and secure them with a new password. Did hacker lock you out of your accounts? Then try to restore access using your primary or secondary email, phone number, or by contacting the webmasters.Finally, warn all your contacts about the hack. It will prevent them from downloading the same files that infected your device. Also, they will be aware that someone may try to impersonate you.How to prevent cyber-attacksAs with everything, prevention is the best medicine. So, instead of waiting for cyber-attacks to hit you, take the following steps to protect yourself:Secure your online accounts with strong passwords. You can do this by using a password generator. Password generators will create long and complicated passwords (such as“QyV4nXu^wB1SM*[op&D”). Even the best hackers would struggle to crack them. Of course,remembering a password like this may be complicated. So, consider using an application or a browser extension to encrypt and store passwords.Enable antivirus tools and scans to run in the background. They will keep an eye out for viruses and malware. Also, comprehensive antivirus software can remove any threats before they create problems for you.Be careful with hyperlinks and file downloads. Scan all files before downloading to make sure they are malware-free. Double-check the links to make sure senders are who they claim to be. URLs will give away if the link goes to a fake website instead of a real one.The bottom lineThousands of cyberattacks happen each day. Hackers take control of 90K of websites every single day. They all have the potential to steal your data, damage your computer, and cost you hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Therefore, you must learn how to recognize cyber-attacks. Keep an eye out for suspicious activity in your accounts and systems. Secure your online presence by using robust passwords. Infected files and links can come your way from a variety of sources, so use anti-malware tools to detect them ASAP. And, most importantly, always be alert not to get infected in the first place.聽起来,网络攻击也许只会出现在好莱坞电影里。

网络安全威胁常见的网络攻击类型

网络安全威胁常见的网络攻击类型

网络安全威胁常见的网络攻击类型网络安全在当今数字化时代变得愈发重要。

随着互联网的快速发展,网络攻击威胁也变得越来越严重。

本文将介绍一些常见的网络攻击类型,以帮助读者更好地了解并预防这些潜在的危险。

一、网络钓鱼(Phishing)网络钓鱼是一种常见的网络攻击形式,它通过伪装成可靠来源的电子邮件、短信或网站来骗取用户的敏感信息,如用户名、密码、信用卡号码等。

攻击者通常会冒充银行、社交媒体平台或其他网站的身份,引诱受害者点击恶意链接或下载恶意附件。

一旦用户提供了个人信息,攻击者将利用这些信息进行身份盗窃或其他非法活动。

二、拒绝服务攻击(DDoS)拒绝服务攻击是一种旨在使目标系统或网络资源无法正常运行的攻击方式。

攻击者通过向目标服务器发送大量网络请求,超出其处理能力的范围,从而导致服务崩溃或变得无法访问。

这种攻击通常需要大量的机器和带宽来实施,因此攻击者会控制一组被感染的计算机,形成一个称为“僵尸网络”的网络,然后一起向目标发起攻击。

三、恶意软件(Malware)恶意软件是指旨在损害计算机系统、网络或数据的恶意软件程序。

常见类型的恶意软件包括计算机病毒、僵尸网络、木马和间谍软件等。

这些恶意软件通常需要用户的不慎行为(如点击恶意链接或下载不明附件)来进行传播。

一旦感染,恶意软件可以窃取用户的个人信息、破坏系统功能,甚至控制整个计算机。

四、身份盗窃(Identity Theft)身份盗窃指的是攻击者以受害者的身份进行欺诈或非法活动的行为。

网络身份盗窃通常通过获取用户的个人信息进行操作。

攻击者可以使用社交工程或黑客技术来获取用户的个人信息,如姓名、地址、社会保险号码等。

一旦攻击者获得这些信息,他们可以冒充受害者来进行各种欺诈行为,如银行盗窃、信用卡欺诈等。

五、网络间谍活动(Cyber Espionage)网络间谍活动是指一国或组织利用计算机技术手段获取他国政府、军事、经济或商业机密的行为。

这种类型的网络攻击通常由国家支持,以获取重要的信息或进行间谍活动。

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题正方,网络购物对传统零售业造成冲击。

首先,网络购物的兴起使得消费者更加便利地购买商品,不再需要亲自前往实体店铺。

这导致了传统零售业的销售额下降,因为消费者更倾向于在网上购物,而不是在实体店购物。

据统计,全球电子商务市场规模已经超过了数万亿美元,而且这个数字还在不断增长。

其次,网络购物提供了更多的选择和更低的价格,这使得消费者更愿意在网上购物而不是在实体店购物。

例如,亚马逊等网络购物平台提供了丰富的商品选择和竞争性的价格,这吸引了大量消费者。

相比之下,传统零售业往往面临着租金高昂和人力成本等问题,导致商品价格偏高,吸引力下降。

最后,随着技术的不断发展,网络购物的便利性和体验也在不断提升,这进一步加剧了网络购物对传统零售业的冲击。

例如,虚拟现实技术的应用使得消费者可以在家中就能够体验商品,而无需亲自前往实体店。

反方,网络购物不会对传统零售业造成冲击。

首先,虽然网络购物的兴起确实对传统零售业造成了一定程度的影响,但传统零售业仍然具有其独特的优势。

例如,实体店铺可以提供消费者更加直观的商品体验和更加个性化的服务,这是网络购物无法替代的。

其次,实体店铺也在不断地进行转型和升级,以适应市场的变化。

例如,一些零售商开始将线上线下相结合,提供线上下单、线下取货的服务,从而吸引更多消费者。

同时,一些实体店铺也开始注重打造品牌形象和提升服务质量,以区别于网络购物的低价竞争。

最后,一些经典案例也表明,实体店铺并不会被网络购物完全取代。

例如,苹果公司的零售店在全球范围内拥有众多忠实的消费者,这表明实体店铺仍然具有其独特的吸引力和优势。

综上所述,网络购物的兴起确实对传统零售业造成了一定程度的冲击,但传统零售业仍然具有其独特的优势和生存空间。

因此,我们认为网络购物不会对传统零售业造成严重的冲击。

网络安全引发美国银行业与零售业争执

网络安全引发美国银行业与零售业争执
这两个行业展开争斗之际,网络攻击正成为企业面对的一个日趋普遍的问题,突显出在确定谁该买单问题上的困难。例如,黑客对零售商家得宝(Home Depot)和塔吉特百货(Target)发起的攻击,在过去一年里影响了近1亿张信用卡。
“这是一个有关公平的主张,”拥有大约5000个会员的美国独立社区银行家协会(Independent ommunity人卡姆•法恩(Cam Fine)表示,“如果是家得宝的数据安全系统遭到侵入,那么既然不是银行的过错,他们难道不应该补偿银行付出的所有成本吗?”
#网络安全引发美国银行业与零售业争执
银行正准备与零售商展开一场重大较量,焦点是谁应承受网络攻击所造成的成本。此前银行承担了侵入事件的大部分成本,尽管它们将这些侵入归咎于零售商自身的安全缺陷。
代表银行的若干家行业组织罕见地团结起来,联手敦促美国新一届国会在明年开会期间出台新的法律,迫使零售商自行承担清理工作的成本。
这家零售商9月份报告的数据失窃事件,已导致社区银行和信用社支出至少1.6亿美元重发新卡,以及为与应对这次攻击有关的其他服务买单。家得宝预计,此次侵入事件给该公司造成至少6200万美元的成本。
“当今系统中的薄弱环节是在商家这头,”联邦信贷协会全国联盟(NAFCU)和美国信用社协会(CUNA)上周致函零售商团体称,“只要系统中商家这头的安全标准弱于金融机构这头,消费者和金融机构的脆弱性就是由贵方造成的。”
“现在有更大的紧迫性采取对策,因为这类侵入事件越来越多了。”
银行和零售商围绕交易成本已争吵多年,但围绕网络攻击的最新口水战加剧了这两个群体之间的敌意。零售商的代表不接受银行业的主张。“有关零售商没有付出任何代价的说法显然是不实的,”游说团体——美国零售业领导者协会(RILA)执行副总裁布赖恩•道奇(Brian

网络攻击英语作文Title: The Peril of Cyber Attacks。

In today's interconnected world, the threat of cyber attacks looms large, casting a shadow over individuals, businesses, and even nations. Cyber attacks, facilitated by the ever-expanding reach of the internet, have become a pervasive menace, capable of wreaking havoc on a global scale. This essay delves into the nuances of cyber attacks, their implications, and the imperative need for robust cybersecurity measures.First and foremost, it's essential to understand what constitutes a cyber attack. Broadly defined, a cyber attack refers to any malicious attempt to breach digital systems, networks, or devices with the intent of stealing sensitive information, causing disruption, or inflicting damage. These attacks can take various forms, including but not limited to malware infections, phishing scams, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, and ransomware assaults.One of the most pressing concerns regarding cyberattacks is their potential to inflict significant economic damage. For businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), a successful cyber attack can spell financial ruin. The theft of intellectual property,financial data breaches, or disruptions to essential services can result in substantial financial losses, tarnished reputations, and even bankruptcy.Furthermore, cyber attacks pose a severe threat to national security. State-sponsored hacking activities, espionage campaigns, and cyber warfare tactics have the potential to destabilize governments, undermine democratic processes, and compromise critical infrastructure. The recent surge in ransomware attacks targeting vital sectors such as healthcare, energy, and transportation underscores the vulnerability of essential services to malicious actors.In addition to the economic and security implications, cyber attacks also have far-reaching societal consequences. The proliferation of fake news, online propaganda, andsocial engineering tactics can erode trust in institutions, sow discord among communities, and manipulate public opinion. Moreover, the rise of cyberbullying, online harassment, and digital identity theft has fueled concerns about the psychological well-being and privacy of individuals in the digital age.Addressing the scourge of cyber attacks requires amulti-faceted approach encompassing technological innovation, regulatory frameworks, and public awareness campaigns. Firstly, organizations must prioritize cybersecurity as a fundamental aspect of their operations, investing in state-of-the-art security solutions, conducting regular risk assessments, and implementing robust incident response protocols.Secondly, governments play a crucial role in combating cyber threats by enacting legislation to deter cybercriminals, fostering international cooperation to address cross-border cybercrime, and investing in cybersecurity research and development. Collaborative efforts such as information sharing initiatives and jointcybersecurity exercises can enhance the collective resilience of nations against cyber attacks.Furthermore, fostering a culture of cybersecurity awareness is paramount in empowering individuals to protect themselves against online threats. Education and training programs aimed at promoting digital literacy, teaching cybersecurity best practices, and raising awareness about common cyber risks can empower users to navigate thedigital landscape safely.In conclusion, cyber attacks represent a pervasive and evolving threat that demands concerted action from all stakeholders. By embracing a proactive approach to cybersecurity, leveraging technological innovations, and fostering international collaboration, we can mitigate the risks posed by cyber attacks and safeguard the integrity of our digital ecosystem. Only through collective vigilance and resilience can we effectively thwart the adversaries lurking in the shadows of cyberspace.。

Traditional brick-and-mortar stores have been supplemented, and in some cases, replaced by online platforms. This shift has brought about significant changes in the way consumers shop and businesses operate.One of the main benefits of e-commerce is the convenience it offers. Consumers can shop from the comfort of their homes at any time of day, without the need to travel to a physical store. This has particularly benefited those with busy schedules or limited mobility. Additionally, e-commerce allows for a wider selection of products than might be available in local stores, often at more competitive prices.However, the rise of e-commerce has also introduced challenges. The anonymity of online transactions can lead to issues of trust, with consumers sometimes hesitant to purchase from unfamiliar websites. Furthermore, the increased competition has forced many small businesses to either adapt to the digital marketplace or face closure.In conclusion, while e-commerce has revolutionized the retail industry and brought numerous benefits to consumers, it is not without its challenges. Businesses must continue to evolve to meet the demands of this rapidly changing landscape.Word Bank:A) convenienceB) competitionC) transactionsD) transformedE) operateF) mobilityG) adaptH) hesitantI) unfamiliarJ) widerQuestions:1) The development of e-commerce has _______ the retail industry.2) One of the main benefits of e-commerce is the _______ it offers.3) Consumers can shop from home, which is particularly beneficial for those with limited _______.4) The anonymity of online _______ can lead to issues of trust.Section BDirections:In this section, you will read several passages.

In conclusion, while tourism offers many benefits, it is important to approach travel responsibly to ensure that destinations can be enjoyed by future generations. Questions:1) What has contributed to the significant growth of the tourism industry?A) The decline in travel costs and the popularity of social media.B) The development of new transportation methods.C) The increase in luxury travel options.D) The promotion of international tourism by governments.2) What is a key aspect of sustainable tourism?A) Visiting as many destinations as possible.B) Minimizing environmental impact and supporting local communities.C) Staying in luxury hotels and resorts.D) Traveling to remote and unspoiled locations.3) What is one of the challenges caused by the growth of tourism?A) The decline in international travel.B) The negative impact on local cultures and environments.C) The rise in travel-related costs.D) The decrease in travel safety.4) How can travelers ensure that destinations remain enjoyable for future generations?A) By visiting only popular tourist spots.B) By choosing environmentally friendly travel options.C) By limiting the duration of their trips.D) By avoiding travel during peak seasons.Passage Two:The concept of work-life balance has become increasingly important in modern society. As technology continues to blur the lines between work and personal life, many people struggle to find time for relaxation and leisure. This issue is particularly prevalent in countries where long working hours are the norm.One of the main challenges of achieving work-life balance is the expectation to be constantly available. With the advent of smartphones and email, employees are often expected to respond to work-related communications outside of regular business hours. This can lead to burnout and decreased job satisfaction.Employers are beginning to recognize the importance of work-life balance for employee well-being and productivity. Some companies have implemented policies such as flexible working hours, remote work options, and mandatory vacation time to help employees achieve a healthier balance.In conclusion, work-life balance is essential for maintaining both physical and mental health. Employers and employees alike must work together to create an environment that supports a healthy balance between work and personal life.Questions:1) What has contributed to the difficulty of achieving work-life balance in modern society?A) The rise of remote work opportunities.B) The increasing demand for skilled labor.C) The expectation to be constantly available.D) The decline in job security.2) What is one of the negative effects of being constantly available for work?A) Increased job satisfaction.B) Higher productivity levels.C) Burnout and decreased job satisfaction.D) Improved work-life balance.3) How are some employers helping employees achieve work-life balance?A) By increasing work hours and reducing vacation time.B) By offering flexible working hours and remote work options.C) By eliminating work-from-home opportunities.D) By requiring employees to work on weekends.4) Why is work-life balance important?A) It helps employees earn more money.B) It allows employees to focus solely on their careers.C) It is essential for maintaining physical and mental health.D) It improves job security.Passage Three:The importance of cybersecurity has grown exponentially as the world becomes more connected through the internet. Cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated, targeting everything from personal information to critical infrastructure.One of the most common forms of cyberattacks is phishing, where attackers trick individuals into providing sensitive information by pretending to be a trustworthy source. This can lead to identity theft, financial loss, and damage to an organization's reputation.To combat these threats, both individuals and organizations must take proactive measures.

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题

网络购物是否对传统零售业造成冲击辩论辩题正方:网络购物对传统零售业造成了冲击。

首先,随着互联网的普及,消费者可以方便地在家中通过电脑或手机进行购物,省去了传统零售店铺的租金和人工成本,使得网店可以提供更低的价格吸引顾客。

其次,网络购物的便利性和丰富的选择也让消费者更愿意选择在网上购物,而不是去实体店购买商品。

再者,许多传统零售店铺也开始转型线上销售,这使得传统零售业的竞争更加激烈,一些小型零售店甚至因此倒闭。

名人名句,苹果创始人乔布斯曾说过,“如果你不喜欢某个东西,就要去改变它。

如果你不可能改变它,就要去接受它。

如果你不能接受它,就要离开它。

”这句话可以解释为,传统零售业应该积极转型,适应网络购物的潮流,而不是被动接受被淘汰的命运。

经典案例,美国知名百货公司塞尔德斯就是一个典型的例子。

由于没有及时转型线上销售,塞尔德斯在互联网购物的冲击下,经营不善,最终宣告破产。

反方:网络购物对传统零售业并没有造成冲击。

首先,虽然网络购物的便利性和价格优势吸引了一部分消费者,但是仍然有一部分消费者更喜欢在实体店购物,因为他们可以亲自看到、摸到商品,从而更加放心购买。

其次,传统零售店铺提供了更好的售后服务和消费体验,这是网络购物无法替代的。

再者,一些传统零售店铺也开始加强线上销售,通过线上线下结合,来吸引更多的消费者。

名人名句,亚马逊创始人杰夫·贝索斯曾说过,“在未来的零售业中,线上和线下将不再是对立的两个世界,而是融为一体。

”这句话说明了线上线下结合的重要性,传统零售业并不会被网络购物所淘汰。

经典案例,中国的苏宁易购就是一个成功转型的案例。

苏宁易购从传统的实体零售店发展为线上线下融合的零售企业,通过与阿里巴巴等电商平台合作,成功实现了转型升级。

综上所述,网络购物对传统零售业的冲击是客观存在的,但传统零售业并没有被淘汰的命运,只要积极转型,适应市场需求,就能够在激烈的竞争中立于不败。

NTT’s proactive teams monitor and maintain security devices through our six Global Security Operations Centers using ITIL-aligned Global Services Operating Architecture Service capabilities, which include 24x7 technical support, product education, and professional integration services.By leveraging the ISA99/IEC 62443 standard and integrating with third-party partners, NTT Security experts and the Fortinet Security Fabric deliver a comprehensive security approach that implements a progressive strategy across three major phases: Phase I: ReconnaissanceNTT begins by passively observing and monitoring your network. We then create an updated and comprehensive inventory of every network segment, device, application version, connectivity detail, and security score. We also perform real-time behavioral analytics that identify normal and abnormal activities. This provides a visibility overview to adequately plan the best tactics and strategies and provide the appropriate security solutions and services.Phase II: RisksNTT Security experts identify your security vulnerabilities and map the risks to the operational level. We use a variety of common benchmarks including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework, the EU’s Directive on Security of Network and Information Systems (NIS Directive), and IEC 62443 to identify risks and how they relate to your organization’s infrastructure, business, and operational goals. Benchmarks and identified risks are used to guide your firm and prioritize the fortifications, weapons, and armor needed reduce risks and maintain operational uptime.Phase III: ResponseResponding to threats in today’s dynamically changing environment requires a more proactive rather than reactive approach. NTT’s Security Division can help you identify potential threats and attackers before they invade. To help with this, we employ the most appropriate Fortinet solutions and Security Fabric, based on the insights and recommendations obtained from the previous two phases, to help fortify your firm against attacks. The Fortinet Security Fabric and solutions offer some of the most comprehensive and proven solutions in the industry that include:1. An Integrated Platform: Fortinet delivers a flexible platform and next-generation firewall (NGFW) technology for buildingan end-to-end, integrated security architecture. From the data center to the endpoint to multiple clouds, Fortinet offers an integrated Security Fabric. Also, an open application programming interface (API) and Fabric Connectors that can help you integrate third-party tools to leverage prior investments.2. Remote Location Security: Fortinet offers a comprehensive software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) and securenetworking for remote locations. This eliminates the need for expensive multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) bandwidth, provides optimal security, and improves network performance.3. Networking, Cybersecurity, and Physical Security: Fortinet delivers the ability to consolidate networking, cybersecurity,and surveillance functions into a single pane of glass—whether at a main site or remote branch.4. Insider Threat Protection: Fortinet delivers a comprehensive and multilayered solution to guard against accidental anddeliberate insider threats with identity and access management supplemented by network access control (NAC), intent-based segmentation, deception technology, and user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA)—all integrated for centralized visibility and control.5. Robust Threat Intelligence: FortiGuard Labs delivers comprehensive intelligence from a large global network of firewallsand an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered self-evolving detection system (SEDS) that has refined its algorithms using machine learning (ML) for nearly eight years. This has resulted in extremely accurate, real-time identification of zero-day, and unknown threats.6. Industry Leadership: Fortinet is recognized as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Network Firewalls, achieved thebest score in the NGFW Security Value Map from NSS Labs, and has achieved nine “Recommended” ratings from NSS Labs.FortiGate Firewall Use CaseA financial services company used multiple legacy vendors to meet firewall, NAC, endpoint protection, and WAN edge router requirements. They managed these devices in-house and maintained separate relationships with each vendor. When a new CISO joined the firm, he asked his team to review the entire Fortinet Fabric solution across all areas including switching and wireless infrastructure. NTT Managed Security Services offered the ability to manage all aspects of the Fortinet Fabric with a single vendor, thereby lowering efforts and costs. NTT helped improve the customer’s overall security posture and increase the performance of the WAN edge branch network through a fully-integrated solution.Secure Edge/SD-WAN Use CaseA large foods manufacturing and processing company based in the United States had invested in Fortinet FortiGates for their data centers and DMZ, which was fully managed by the NTT Managed Security Services team. When the company decidedto transform their edge branch deployments by implementing SD-WAN technology, NTT recommended a security-focused approach that leveraged the existing FortiGate infrastructure. Having the SD-WAN feature native within a security appliance allowed seamless, automated, and preemptive failover capabilities for the network and the defined applications. Continuous health monitoring is performed on the FortiGate appliances, and if connectivity becomes an issue, the FortiGate will fail overto another node before network performance is impacted. This can be enhanced by assigning roles to critical applicationsthat prioritize connectivity. The customer now benefits from consistent security policies across the core and branch network, application awareness at the edge, and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). In managed Fortinet environments, NTT clients have consistently relied on NTT to manage global rule sets and security policies, and enable SD-WAN features. NTT ensures that the edge is secure while maintaining the integrity of the wider network.OT Use CaseA municipal water & wastewater systems operator in the United States had difficulty balancing limited resources against OT security needs to keep critical Water sites operational, as well as reduce operational cyber risks while meeting corporate guidelines. The company had not yet implemented an OT cybersecurity roadmap to address cybersecurity requirements or focus IT budgets on high impact OT assets. The NTT Security Consulting team helped the customer build a comprehensiveOT cybersecurity roadmap. NTT worked collaboratively with Fortinet to provide a complete solution to address all OT security requirements including perimeter protection and systems baselining. The Fortinet-NTT solution proactively limited OT network risks through dynamic network segmentation and enforced security policies across all OT devices. The solutions also analyzed traffic for ongoing threats and vulnerabilities.Teleworker Use CaseRecent research revealed that 84 percent of firms plan to continue supporting more teleworkers but less than 30 percentare ready to ensure adequate security.5 Remote work is the new norm where the current environment requires employeesto complete work-related tasks through remote internet connections. The Fortinet Security Fabric addresses remote worker scenarios with three primary levels of connectivity. NTT Managed Security Services provides deployment and managed services for all these elements of the Fortinet Security Fabric, to ensure the most cost-effective and reliable solutions available for remote workers. FortiGate with the FortiClient Fabric Agent provides a VPN tunnel back to a primary office, to ensure that communications stay private while traveling across open networks. FortiAuthenticator and FortiToken provide multi-factor authentication (MFA) to verify user identities.And for individuals handling company confidential communications, deploying a FortiGate NGFW at a remote office provides key personnel with the highest levels of security and performance available for remote locations. With secure traffic tunnels,as well as application control and traffic inspection, a low-end FortiGate NGFW provides an economical and powerful solution with several levels of protection, backed by artificial intelligence (AI) security processes. By deploying the Remote Work solution from Fortinet and NTT, firms can benefit from the agility required to support remote workers, thereby increasing employee productivity, morale, and retention.ConclusionAvoiding the serious consequences of ransomware or other malicious cybersecurity attacks, or compliance-related finesor lawsuits, now requires more advanced and effective network security technologies, expertise, and services. Rather than complex and costly point solutions or services, IT and security teams need augmentation from trained security experts combined with the latest security solutions that seamlessly integrate into networks and simplify and automate security tasks. Organizations need to identify risks and how they relate to infrastructure, business, and operational goals, and then implement a Security Fabric, solutions, and managed services to mitigate attacks while creating seamless and frictionless user experiences. To accomplish this, firms require transparent visibility and real-time security workflows underscored by global threat intelligence. In today’s dynamic, remote, and risk-filled environment, protecting valuable assets requires the right combination of security solutions and services provided by NTT and Fortinet.Figure 1: Fortinet Security Fabric diagram.The Security FabricThe Fortinet Security Fabric platform provides true integration and automation across an organization’s security infrastructure, delivering unparalleled protection and visibility to every network segment, device, and appliance, whether virtual, in the cloud, or on-premises.Contact Information, Trademarks, and CopyrightsReferences1https:///news/stories/2019-internet-crime-report-released-0211202https:///press-release/identity-fraud-hits-all-time-high-167-million-us-victims-2017-according-new-javelin3https:///posts/whats-new-in-the-2019-cost-of-a-data-breach-report/4https:///getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUS456124195https:///press-releases/bitglass-report-84-of-organizations-will-continue-to-support-remote-work-but-most-arent-equipped-to-do-so-securely Copyright © 2021 Fortinet, Inc.

网络攻击最常见的类型

网络攻击最常见的类型作者:胡文明来源:《英语世界》2021年第01期Increasing usage of the internet has also led to an increase in cyber-crimes/cyber-attacks. But how many types of cyber-attacks are you familiar with? In order to tackle cyber threats, you must be well aware of its nature.What are cyber-attacks?A cyber-attack is defined as an attack originated by a digital system against another digital device, website, or any other digital system and compromises1 its privacy, reliability or the data stored in it.Not only these attacks are a threat to digital individuals but are a great threat to businesses as well.Why are cyber-attacks initiated?Before moving further to types of cyber-attacks, let us first have a look at the reasons for initiating cyber-attacks:Acquiring unauthorized2 access to a digital network, system or its data.Denial of service.Virus or malware3 installation.Hacking a website for unsolicited4 purposes.To get access to personal and secure information of people and businesses.Unauthorized use of a computer.Types of cyber-attacksCyber-attacks can be of various types. You need to be aware of all those types of cyber-attacks to guarantee your utmost safety and security.1) MalwareMalware is considered as software that is intentionally developed to disrupt computer, server,client, or computer network.Malware can be in the form of scripts, executable codes, active content, and other malicious software.These codes can be computer worms, viruses, ransomware5, Trojan horses, adware,spyware, or scare ware.The most prominent6 damages caused by malware are:As ransomware, it blocks access to key components of the network.Installs harmful software/malware.As spyware, they can steal valuable information from your system.They can damage certain hardware components of your system and make them inoperable.2) PhishingThe main aim of phishing is to steal restricted and private information such as credit card details, login ids, and passwords, etc.By impersonating7 oneself as a reliable establishment in electronic com-munication. It is usually done through email spoofing or instant messaging.They carry a link that directs users to a fake website which looks similar to the legitimate site and asks them to enter personal and secure information. It is a fraudulent activity intended to cheat users.They bait the users by claiming to be from a reliable third group such as auction sites, online payment processors, social web sites, banks, or IT administrators.3) Man-in-the-middle attackIn man-in-the-middle (MitM) the invader covertly8 modifies the chats and dialogues between two people who are communicating with each other.In a man-in-the-middle attack, the communicators are made to believe that they are directly communicating with each other without any interference from any third party.But the truth is that the whole communication is controlled by the invader while making the communicators believe that they are talking to each other. It is also known as eavesdropping.The entry points for MitMThe invaders can easily take control of private chats over an unsecured public Wi-Fi. Invaders can inset9 between the device and the network and can take control of the private chats in the network. The communicators without having any idea pass all the conversation to the invaders.It can also be done through malware. In such cases,the invader installs software on the victim’s device to process all his information.4) Denial-of-service attackIn denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) the offender tries to make digital assets inaccessible to its anticipated users.The offender provisionally10 inter-rupts services of a host who is linked to the Internet. It involves overflowing the besieged11 machine with surplus applications to burden it from fulfilling the legitimate requests.5) SQL injection attackA Structured Query Language (SQL) injection attack allows the intruders to run malicious SQL statements. These SQL statements have the power to take over the database server.Using SQL injection intruders can overcome application security measures.It allows them to pass through the validation and approval process of any web application.It also allows them to recover the entire data from their database. It also gives access to intruders to add, modify, and delete data in the database.An SQL injection allows intruders to fiddle with various databases including MySQL,Oracle, SQL Server, or others. It is widely used by attackers to get access over:Personal data.Intellectual property.Customer information.Trade secrets and more.6) Zero-day attackThe zero-day vulnerability is a defect in the software, hardware or even the firmware.They bait the users by claiming to be from a reliable third group such as auction sites, online payment processors, social web sites, banks, or IT administrators.3) Man-in-the-middle attackIn man-in-the-middle (MitM) the invader covertly8 modifies the chats and dialogues between two people who are communicating with each other.In a man-in-the-middle attack, the communicators are made to believe that they are directly communicating with each other without any interference from any third party.But the truth is that the whole communication is controlled by the invader while making the communicators believe that they are talking to each other.

网站遭袭对电子商务的影响

网站遭袭对电子商务的影响

网站遭袭对电子商务的影响2月上旬美国几大的知名网站遭袭之后,网络安全引起了全世界范围的关注。

美国的网络应用触及每个角落,特别电子商务正处在方兴未艾的阶段,这些袭击将产生什么不良后果?美国政府对此将采取什么措施?商业网站要如何更好地保护自己?这些问题如今都已被排上重要议程表,因为这关系到美国未来的国家经济。

电子商务措手不及3月2日,美国商业部发布了第一份官方关于国内电子商务的报告。

报告显示仅99年第四季度,美国的网上零售额达到53亿美元,占第四季全部零售额的0.6%。

这是美国政府的第一份网络零售报告,显示了美国政府终于认识到并承认了电子商务的重要性,也由此可见电子商务对美国经济已经产生了不可估量的影响。

很多经济学家预测在未来几年,电子商务将成为美国经济的排头兵。

快捷方便的国际网络迅速改变了美国人的正常生活,特别在购物和投资等和商务有关的方面。

但是黑客的横行已经成为电子商务的隐患。

事实上,在2月份之前,很多网站都遭不同程度的入侵,只是因怕影响消费者的信心而不敢声张。

2月份被袭击的都是已成规模的世界知名网站,所以才引起了大规范围的重视。

网络安全专家认为很多快速成长的商业网站把过多的精力集中到如何发展上,而忽视了足够的安全保护措施,使得网站没有充分准备好对付类似的进攻,所以一旦被袭便不堪一击。

这次网站被袭的强度和密度是少见的,它已造成国际网络历史上最大规模的系统崩溃。

人们意识到,如果黑客能够把价值930亿美元的雅虎这个号称世界上最大的同时也可算是最成熟的电子商店关掉数小时,那么没有一个网站是安全的。

攻击事件使商业网站蒙受巨大损失。

这些在远程发起的攻击行动有效地瘫痪了那些原本看上去朝气蓬勃的虚拟店面。

网站持续多小时无法进入,不仅妨碍了顾客购物,影响了销售量,而且也影响了网站的广告收入,因为网站点击率大幅度降低了。

据初步统计,雅虎在关闭的三个小时中在广告和销售方面损失了50万美元。

一旦网站被袭,不管时间长短,公司少则损失数十万,多则高达百万。
