Understanding The Steps Involved In Cyber Attacks

Undoubtedly, the world constantly has been witnessing eye-opening cyber attacks like Russian Grid Hacking, Lord & Taylor, NotPetya and none the less; the most eminent social networking site, Facebook.inc underwent a notorious data scandal recently in March 2018. Not every company is from a software background. Any company despite its field of products, operation or genre, the presence of the company online makes it 100% prone to get attacked by hackers and also face a data breach.

Hence, cybersecurity services come in picture. Cybersecurity services are structured in a way for clients owning giant industries, companies to mid and start-up level business. On an individual basis as well, the PC, laptop or network need PC security softwares and updates.

The reasons for cybersecurity attacks can be numerous. Hackers use various techniques to attack the target computers or system or softwares. To mention a few:
Phishing Through Emails
Malware downloaded on the target computer
Submerge the website with Bogus traffic
Man-in-the-middle Attacks

Let's take a look at the steps involved in cyber attacks:

1. Investigation:
The attacker before planning an entry into the target computer, first researches, explores vulnerable targets and boils down to a point of entry which gives him an opportunity for maximum exploitation and extraction.

2.Scrutinize :
After the basic step of shortlisting the vulnerable targets is done, the hacker scrutinizes the target slowly over a period of time and attempt to gain access.

3.Gaining control over the Target system:
At this step, the attacker tries to gain full access and escalate privileges which further let the attacker maneuver through the system. Basically, it is taking control over the system.

4. The calm phase:
This is a very crucial phase of the attack. The hacker remains calm and extracts all the data of the company or organization without letting the system owners to judge the loss of data or the actual attack being executed. He can also install certain malware at this stage.

5. The Invasion:
After the data is extracted, the attacker tries to diffuse the main functioning of the system further damaging and crashing the network function. This might be the phase where the companies might realize the attack.

6. The Declaration attempt:
Very similar to real-world terror attacks, certain attackers feel the pride to brag about their achievement in performing an impossible task and be able to create an expansive damage. Many a number of times, attackers would prefer a discreet way and it might turn out to detect their tracks later.
