Cyber Security

Course Description

Did you know that hackers attack and steal critical information every 39 seconds? Information Security is a crucial challenge that most businesses, governments, and consumers face every nanosecond. Cybercrimes are increasing at an alarming pace in today’s digital age, causing a considerable loss in money, reputation, and customers. Industry predictions suggest that cybercrimes will cost the world $6 trillion by 2021.

Even though rising digitization, social media proliferation, process automation, Artificial Intelligence ( AI), Internet of Things( IoT), Big Data, and the new normal work cultures such as Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and remote working, benefit consumers and businesses alike, they create vulnerabilities in the IT infrastructure. Cybercriminals exploit these gaps to manipulate and steal sensitive information, money, and identities. The Information Security attacks impact the business and employees, customers, supply chain and channel partners, sector peers, and even governments to a large extent.

Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and their teams work double shifts to mitigate Information Security risks while maintaining business continuity and deriving value from cutting-edge technology innovation. Businesses are actively deploying comprehensive Information Security solutions to ward off data breaches and attacks. The global cybersecurity market is predicted to snowball from $173 billion in 2020 to $270 billion by 2026.

Businesses are looking out to strengthen their defenses by employing Information Security professionals who can rethink IT architecture, redesign processes, and embed cybersecurity in design.

Course FAQs

What is Information Security?

Information Security (Infosec) is a risk management function that protects enterprise data by preventing thefts, breaches, and unauthorized access.  Infosec processes and practices help secure the organization’s physical, electronic, tangible, and intangible data assets from unlawful use, disclosure, disruption, deletion, corruption, modification, inspection, recording, or devaluation.

What are the triads of Information Security?

Infosec procedures are built around 3 key objectives, also known as the CIA triads. CIA stands for Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability.

Confidentiality– Information must not be disclosed to unauthorized, irrelevant personnel, entities, or processes.

Integrity– Accuracy, consistency, and wholeness must be maintained without unauthorized editing.

Availability-Access control and role-specific responsibility must be practiced to prevent data crimes.

What are the types of Information Security threats?
  • Even the mightiest of business empires can crumble if the following information security threats are not dealt with severely.

    • Malware– Malicious viruses and worms that copies and self-replicates to destroy business data and network form a significant part of malware.
    • Botnets– Remote controlled by cybercriminals, Botnets are a collection of interconnected devices that generate fraudulent click campaigns and spams to trick the user or system.
    • Phishing – Fake emails from pretending legitimate sources compel the user to share confidential information such as bank credentials, passwords, etc.
    • Drive-by downloads– Sometimes, just browsing or opening a webpage will trigger a download. These drive-by downloads will inject Trojans to steal sensitive information.
    • Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) – These attacks come in the form of sudden torrents of emails, requests, or traffic, forcing the system to crash, thus causing service denial to legitimate customers.
    • Ransomware – The attackers encrypt and lock the victim’s data system, preventing them from accessing their own information. Only after paying a hefty ransom will the database be decrypted and released to the owner.
    • Exploit kits – Programming tools and attack kits available for laypeople to hack into systems.
    • Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) – A targeted cyber-attack where the intruder penetrates a system, accesses sensitive information, and remains undetected for a long time.
    • Maladvertising– Codes injected into legitimate online advertising networks and web pages, redirect users to malicious websites or installs malware on devices.
    • Insider threats– Intentional or unintentional misuse of data by employees or stakeholders with access to critical information.
