6. Social Engineering (S.E.)
A social engineer runs what used to be called a "con game." For example, a person using
social engineering to break into a computer network might try to gain the confidence of an
authorized user and get them to reveal information that compromises the network's security.
Social engineers often rely on the natural helpfulness of people as well as on their
weaknesses. They might, for example, call the authorized employee with some kind of
urgent problem that requires immediate network access. Appeal to vanity, appeal to
authority, appeal to greed, and old-fashioned eavesdropping are other typical social
engineering techniques. Social engineering is a term that describes a non-technical kind of
intrusion that relies heavily on human interaction and often involves tricking other people to
break normal security procedures.
7. Ways of Combating S.E.
Don’t tell anyone your password
Just because they seem nice doesn’t mean
that they are.
Question everything (just because they seem
ok, ask for some proof)
8. Malware
Malware is short for “malicious software,” as that is precisely what it is.
Malware defines an entire class of malicious software. Malware includes
computer
viruses, worms, Trojans, adware, spyware, crimeware, scareware, rootkits,
and other unwanted programs.
9. Ways of Combating
Malware
One way is with a regularly used and
updated antimalware program.
Keeping an updated antivirus and
running a regular scan.
10. Removable Storage Media
Removable devices are an easy way to
transfer viruses or malware throughout a
network.
11. How to Keep Our Business
Safe
Maintain high security while throughout
the network
Do not use any unapproved USB drives
Watch who you talk to.
