Cybersecurity
In our time of innovative technologies, one of the main problems is the lack of security on the Internet.Cybersecurity is important not only for private users, but also for organizations.The amount of data on the network is increasing every day, making them vulnerable to cyber attacks.According to Cybersecurity Ventures, by 2025, damage from cyber attacks could reach $10.5 trillion annually.This forces users to protect their data, and cybercriminals, in turn, to create new ways to circumvent protection.The main types at the moment are: 1) DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service): attacks that overload the server, making it unavailable.This is accomplished by flooding the target with many requests;2) Phishing: attacks aimed at deceiving users in order to obtain their data, for example: emails, phone calls (vishing), fake websites, social networks (spear phishing);3) Malware: programs that cause damage to computers and networks, for example: Trojans, botnets, spyware, Ransomware; 4) Cyber espionage and data breaches: attacks by organizations aimed at stealing confidential data; 5) Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attack: a MitM attack bypasses these protections by breaking a connection into two pieces.By creating a separate, encrypted connection with the client and the server, an attacker can read the data sent over the connection and modify it as desire before forwarding it on to its destination [1]; 6) Malicious Apps: as employees increasingly use mobile devices to do their work and access sensitive company data, malicious mobile applications are increasingly dangerous.These applications can do any-
