Invisible Empire

Many computers are being attacked all together that are infected differently. Targeted attacks attempt to infect the network of a single target company or organization, or enter a specially developed Trojan agent on a single server in the organization's network infrastructure. Who Is The Target? Cybercriminals generally target companies that process or store information that can be exploited by criminals for personal gain. Typical objectives include: Banks Criminals attack the bank's servers or network in order to access information and illegally transfer funds from customers' bank accounts.

  To secure online purchases, there is a smart card with dynamic CVV (Card Verification Value, the three digits on the back of the card). A small electronic ink display screen, like the e-readers, is placed in the same location as the static CVV. A specific chip and a battery inserted in the card make it possible to manage the change of CVV every hour, in total independence from the card chip. At the same time, the issuing banks will be able to delegate or install servers operating with the same algorithm at their premises and thus making it possible to verify that the card is indeed in the possession of its owner at the time of purchase on the internet.

  Above all protection. We repeat it for the umpteenth time: “Never click on the links that accompany some emails and that we do not know where they lead”. It is one of the pests that currently affects computers and mobile devices. The infected computers lose most of the data since, if not all of them are the majority, the files are encrypted. From there, a message appears inviting you to pay a ransom in order to return everything to its previous state. This message is not valid, since it is materially impossible to undo what the cybercriminals have done. The only solution left is to format the computer and install all the applications again.

To combat ransomware we propose some suggestions, focused on taking measures and, also, on the installation of some other protective tool.

Taking into account this particularly difficult context, we develop here the notion of benevolent awareness. People are the most important part of a cybersecurity strategy. It is humans who use the IS. It is humans who make the decisions about how to classify and protect information. Humans react or not to incidents However, while it has probably never been so important to educate users, it has rarely been so difficult to reach them.
