Cyber Security

Firewall: It is a network security system which regulates and oversees the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. This acts as a barrier between an organization’s internal network and the internet, thereby preventing unauthorized access from the outside world while still allowing communication within systems protected by the same firewall device or software.

Two-factor Authentication: Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a type of multi-step process that requires the user to present two or more pieces of evidence before being allowed access. In this case, it can prompt for something the user knows (password) and something they have or are such as a physical token, a phone or biometric identifier like fingerprint recognition etc., thus adding extra layers of security around sensitive systems or information.

Encryption: This is the conversion of electronic data into a coded language to protect it from unauthorized access, which cannot be easily understood by anyone except authorized persons. One typical scenario where encryption may be used when sending credit card details across the web would involve scrambling up all numbers so only proper authorities are able to unscramble them back again. Encryption also provides security for data at rest (storage), data in transit (transfer) and data in use (processing).

Penetration Testing: It is the process of attacking a computer system or network with the intention to find out vulnerabilities that an attacker could exploit. In other words, penetration testing is like simulating an actual cyber-attack on a particular IT infrastructure so as to identify potential points of entry for malicious actors within organizations’ networks. Penetration testers are thereby able to locate weaknesses and security flaws in systems which they later advise on how best these issues can be handled more effectively before actual intruders capitalize on them.

Incident Response Plan: This refers to a set of actions that are taken in case there has been some form of security breach within any given organization. The plan should be designed to detect and respond to cyber security incidents effectively thereby minimizing their impact on business operations. There should also be included within this document communication procedures for notifying personnel about such breaches as may have occurred so appropriate steps can be taken without delay towards containing their effects while working towards preventing re-occurrence where necessary.

These are a small number of forms including tech, employed in security of cyber domain. If people use many different ways to defend systems and also follow some rules, they can prevent attacks or make it difficult for someone to break into their computer system with malware by mistake – cybercriminals won’t be able get hold of their data.
