C|EH Introduction
- Ethical hacking involves discovering vulnerabilities in systems through authorized penetration testing to improve security. Ethical hackers have strong technical skills and work to answer questions about what intruders can access and do on targeted systems.
- The Certified Ethical Hacker (C|EH) certification from EC-Council covers topics including reconnaissance, scanning, enumeration, hacking web servers, social engineering, cryptography, and penetration testing to evaluate system defenses.
- Ethical hackers are paid well, with experienced consultants earning over $120,000 annually and freelancers receiving $10,000-$45,000 per project. Many large organizations have certified ethical hackers on staff to test their security.
Information-Security-Lecture-4.pptx
Employees and ex-employees pose a major security risk for several reasons: they have extensive knowledge of internal systems and procedures; they are often granted high levels of system access; and they know how to circumvent security controls since they helped implement them. Over half of cybercrime prosecutions involve current or former IT employees exploiting their access and knowledge to commit crimes like sabotage, hacking, theft of funds or intellectual property, extortion, and harassment. Contract workers also pose risks if their access is not revoked after their work is completed.
Internet threats
This document defines and provides examples of different types of malware, including viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware, adware, spam, phishing, botnets, and denial of service attacks. Viruses and worms spread by replicating and transferring between computers, while Trojans disguise themselves as useful programs but allow hackers access. Spyware and adware secretly monitor users' activities or display unwanted advertisements. Spam, phishing, and botnets can be used to acquire personal information or distribute other malware. Denial of service attacks disrupt access to internet services.
Cybercrime
Computer forensics once specialized is now mainstream due to our total dependence on data. Experts deal not only with computer related crime such as hacking, software piracy, and viruses but also with conventional crimes including fraud, embezzlement, organized crime and child pornography.

The document concludes by recommending using antivirus software, deleting browsing history regularly, analyzing source code for signs of attack, and not ignoring potential computer errors.
Indiancybercrimescene
This document discusses cybercrime trends in India. It notes that India's growing internet population makes it an attractive target for cybercriminals. Malware authors are targeting India more by localizing attacks and leveraging popular search terms and news events. India contributes about 8% of global DDoS attacks and is a major source of spam. The document warns that financial motivation is the primary driver of malware now and threats are becoming more sophisticated. It emphasizes the need for improved user awareness and education to address India's cybersecurity challenges.

The document discusses the triple challenge of changing IT security landscape, cybercrime, and protection methods. It notes that information now comes from outside rather than inside enterprises, cybercrime has evolved from simple crimes to organized crime for profit, and protection now relies on cloud-based querying rather than installing updates on individual computers. Traditional antivirus methods are overwhelmed by the volume of new threats. Effective protection requires multiple layers of reputation services that inspect sources and file contents.

Ransomware hostage rescue manual
Ransomware is a PC or Mac-based malicious piece of software that encrypts a user or company’s files and forces them to pay a fee to the hacker in order to regain access to their own files.
Not only can ransomware encrypt the files on your computer; the software is smart enough to travel across your network and encrypt any files located on shared network drives. This can lead to a catastrophic situation whereby one infected user can bring an entire company to a halt.

The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

The Bad Fox News.com said “BOSTON - Spanish police have arrested three men accused of masterminding one of the biggest computer crimes to date -- infecting more than 13 million PCs with a virus that stole credit card numbers and other data.”(Reuters, 2010) “Mariposa was programed to secretly take control of infected machines, recruiting them as "slaves" in an army known as a "botnet."

Trojan horses disguise themselves as valuable and useful software available for download on the internet. Most people are fooled by this ploy and end up dowloading the virus disguised as some other application. The name comes from the mythical “Trojan Horse” that the Ancient Greeks set upon the city of Troy.” (TECH FAQ,2011)
