Introduction
What is Cyber Crime?
Computer crime, or cybercrime, is crime that involves a computer and a network. The computer may have been used in the commission of a crime, or it may be the target.
What is Cyber Security?
C
yber security, also known as computer security or IT security, is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and to the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. It includes controlling physical access to the hardware, as well as protecting against harm that may come via network access, data and code injection and due to malpractice by operators,whether intentional, accidental, or due to them being tricked into deviating from secure procedures.
The field is of growing importance due to the increasing reliance on computer systems in most societies and the growth of "smart" devices,including smartphones, televisions and tiny devices as part of the Internet of Things – and of the Internet and wireless network such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
Some organizations are turning to big data platforms, such as Apache Hadoop, to extend data accessibility and machine learning to detect advanced persistent threats.
Vulnerabilities and Attacks
Vulnerability is a system susceptibility or flaw, and much vulnerability are documented in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database and vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities as they are discovered.
An exploitable vulnerability is one for which at least one working attack or "exploit" exists.
To secure a computer system, it is important to understand the attacks that can be made against it, and these threats can typically be classified into one of the categories below.

Vulnerabilities and Attacks
Vulnerability is a system susceptibility or flaw, and much vulnerability are documented in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database and vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities as they are discovered.
An exploitable vulnerability is one for which at least one working attack or "exploit" exists.
To secure a computer system, it is important to understand the attacks that can be made against it, and these threats can typically be classified into one of the categories below.
This document discusses phishing, including common techniques, how phishing works, reasons for its use, and the damages caused. It then covers anti-phishing methods like software, how such software monitors for suspicious behavior and checks website addresses, and examples of anti-phishing programs. The document concludes that phishing aims to steal personal data through fraudulent emails but anti-phishing techniques can help protect users.
Cybercrime involves using computers or the internet to steal identities or import illegal programs. The first recorded cybercrime took place in 1820. There are different types of cybercrimes such as hacking, denial of service attacks, computer viruses, and software piracy. Cybercrimes also include using computers to attack other systems, commit real-world crimes, or steal proprietary information. Common cyber attacks include financial fraud, sabotage of networks, theft of data, and unauthorized access. Internet security aims to establish rules to protect against such attacks by using antivirus software, firewalls, and updating security settings regularly.
This document discusses phishing, which is an attempt to acquire personal information like usernames, passwords, and credit card details under false pretenses. It covers common phishing techniques like link manipulation and website forgery. It also discusses types of phishing like deceptive, malware-based, and DNS-based phishing. The document outlines causes of phishing like misleading emails and lack of user awareness. It proposes both technical and social approaches to anti-phishing and examines the effects of phishing like identity theft and financial loss. Finally, it recommends defenses like education and detection tools to counter phishing attacks.
Cyber crime refers to any illegal activity involving computers or networks. Early cyber crimes included the first spam email in 1978 and the first computer virus in 1982. Cyber threats have evolved from using computers as simple tools to commit crimes like cyber theft to targeting computers directly through hacking and viruses. As technology advanced, criminals began using computers as instruments to aid crimes like money laundering. Common cyber crimes today include financial crimes, IP spoofing, trojans, web jacking, session hijacking, mail bombing, and keyloggers. Cyber security tools and practices like antivirus software, firewalls, passwords, and awareness can help prevent and defend against cyber crimes.
Cyber security refers to protecting networks, devices, programs and data from attacks, damage or unauthorized access. It is important as more people and infrastructure rely on online systems. Major cyber security threats include viruses, malware, trojan horses, hackers and password cracking. To improve cyber security, strong passwords, antivirus software, firewalls and keeping systems updated can help prevent hacking and malware infections. Cyber security is a shared responsibility and India has seen increasing cyber crimes like ransomware attacks and an online bank robbery where over 94 crore rupees were stolen.
Cybercrime involves using computers or the internet to steal identities or import illegal items. The first recorded cybercrime took place in 1820. Computers can be the target of attacks from other computers or can be used as a weapon to commit real-world crimes. Common types of cyber attacks include financial fraud, sabotage of data/networks, and theft of proprietary information. Cybercrimes include hacking, child pornography, denial-of-service attacks, virus dissemination, computer vandalism, cyber terrorism, and software piracy. Internet security aims to establish rules and measures to protect against attacks over the internet.
In present world, where computers/laptops and smart phone made it possible to extract other's secrets, a need has been imminent to handle such problems by Cyber Security Regime, which not only be launched by individuls(IT Expert) of organizations but the governments of the country should also play a vital role.
Computer security aims to protect computing systems and data from threats. It operates on multiple layers including physical, network, system, application, and user security. The key objectives of computer security are confidentiality, integrity, and availability of systems and data. To be secured, computer security addresses hardware, software, communications, and data. It emphasizes precaution, maintenance, and timely reaction to incidents. Risks to computer security include malware, email, and network attacks as well as identity theft. Computer security faces challenges due to complex algorithms, counterintuitive procedures, and need to consider potential attacks. Awareness of computer security helps minimize attacks and protect information and resources.
This document discusses cyber crime and provides an overview presented by Dr. Soreingam Ragui. It defines cyber crime as any illegal activity committed using computers or networks. India ranks 11th globally for cyber crime, constituting 3% of total cyber crime. Reasons for India's high rates include a rapidly growing internet user base. Common cyber crimes include hacking, phishing, and intellectual property theft. The document also discusses Indian cyber law and acts like the Information Technology Act of 2000.
While computer systems today have some of the best security systems ever, they are more vulnerable than ever before.
This vulnerability stems from the world-wide access to computer systems via the Internet.
Computer and network security comes in many forms, including encryption algorithms, access to facilities, digital signatures, and using fingerprints and face scans as passwords.
