Threats Actors are everywhere:
We often have to think sometime who are
people who gain advantages cyber-attacks
issues? Who used them? All the people who
perform illegal agendas by doing cyber-attacks
are commonly known as “THREAT Actors”.
They usually breach the sensitive information
and sell it for the sake of money. The hacker’s
community is one of the main focuses who are
well-trained professionals who work in
companies and improve security systems, they
fully aware of lope holes existed in any
company’s security system. So any dishonest
hackers may do cyber- attacks on any particular
company’s security system. There is also a
community which is known as hacktivists, they
are socially motivated under any unknown organization. The cyber terrorists are not common
like others, but in future due to the lapses in security systems could become familiar to the
general public. Cyber-attacks can be launched by any enemy state against their rival or enemy
country. So attacks can be possible through any particular individual groups, government and
from any cyber terrorist group.
Economical- Effects of cyber security breached:
Cybersecurity problems can occur anywhere, this type of attacks caused billions of dollars
losses until the security system not be made fully secure and efficient. There are some
examples such as smart alarm simple safe hack and affected almost 300000 electronic devices
and fixing was possible I case of replacing all the devices. UK based company named as Talk
Talk was attacked and almost lost 50 million Euros. So, we can claims that the cyber security
issues are progressing every day along with possible deadly impacts on the economy. So these
attacks are directly hitting us, because of our full dependence on technology. There is a still
plenty of time to stop all kinds of cyber-attacks and we should work together to control the
attacks before it will too late.
