Cryptojacking is a hidden type of cyber attack where hackers use your computer’s power to mine cryptocurrency without your permission. This can slow down your devices and might also lead to losing money or having your private information stolen. As more people become interested in cryptocurrencies, these attacks are becoming more common. However, you can…
Side-channel attacks are security exploits that subtly leak sensitive information from a system under various types of indirect data analysis. This might be in the way of power consumption, electromagnetic leaks, or even how long it takes for certain cryptographic operations to execute, as opposed to a direct breach into the software or code. They…
SOAR is the acronym for Security Orchestration Automation Response. In other words, with each passing day, the dynamics of the cyber threat that keeps changing so fast, and staying ahead of the trends is very important for you. And SOAR is one of those big things that help to make that challenge something you can…
The term of the day is “Secure Access Service Edge,” abbreviated as SASE (pronounced “sassy”). Secure Access Service Edge is a new term referring to a framework that combines network security functions with WAN (wide area network) capabilities. The two combine to offer companies secure, rapid cloud-based networking that is the perfect access way for…
“Vulnerability” and “exploit” are two words that are common in the domain of cybersecurity. Both of these concepts are helpful to an individual in understanding how cyber threats move forward in every modern computer system and how they are used toward mitigation. Nevertheless, the former covers a different aspect of the security breach process. A…
The Detect (DE) is essential in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework since it serves as the framework that aids in detailing to an organization how to manage and mitigate cybersecurity risk. So, The core functionality of “Detect” emphasizes the development and implementation of the suitable activities required to recognize the occurrence of a cybersecurity event in…
Cross-site scripting is very common in web application security vulnerabilities. The reason for which XSS is implemented is that an attacker can inject bad code into the content that other users are going to view. Such scripts can be executed in the browser of any user who has visited the compromised site. This can, therefore,…
Imagine a small box meant to hold a certain number of balls. A buffer overflow is like trying to stuff too many balls into the box. This makes the box overflow and spills balls everywhere. In computer programs, buffers are temporary storage spaces for data. Buffer overflows happen when a program tries to put more…
Data exfiltration in cyber security is when someone illegally takes data from a computer or another device. It happens when sensitive, protected, or private information is copied, moved, or taken from a system without permission, often using harmful methods. This can happen in different ways, such as someone physically accessing a computer, remotely using malware,…
In the world of cybersecurity, especially when we talk about boot security, the term “chain of trust” is very important for us. It means a series of checks that a computer does when it starts up to make sure every part of the boot process is secure and hasn’t been messed with. This idea is…
