Network and Cyber security should be a number one priority for businesses. With ransomware, hacks, attacks, vulnerabilities and data theft affecting companies all around the world on a daily basis, it’s just a matter of time before your business is hit. Advanced Technology Consultants’ goal is to provide you with the best network and cyber security protection possible, while also keeping your unique needs and budget in mind. Here is short list of cyber threats:

  1. Malware: Malware, or malicious software, is a type of software that is designed to damage or disable computer systems or networks. It can be spread through email attachments, infected websites, or malicious downloads.
  2. Phishing: Phishing is a type of social engineering attack that involves tricking people into giving away sensitive information such as login credentials, credit card numbers, or other personal information. This is often done through email or fake websites designed to look like legitimate ones.
  3. Ransomware: Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts the victim’s files and demands payment in exchange for the decryption key. It can be spread through email attachments, infected websites, or malicious downloads.
  4. DDoS attacks: A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a type of cyber attack where multiple compromised systems, often infected with a Trojan virus, are used to flood a targeted website or server with traffic to the point where it can no longer function.
  5. Insider threats: Insider threats are cyber attacks that come from within an organization. This can include employees who intentionally or accidentally leak sensitive information or who use their access to company systems to steal data.
  6. Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs): APTs are long-term targeted attacks that are designed to remain undetected for extended periods of time. These attacks often involve sophisticated techniques, such as social engineering, and can be used to steal valuable data or intellectual property.
  7. Password attacks: Password attacks are a type of cyber attack that involves cracking passwords to gain access to a system or network. This can be done through brute force attacks, dictionary attacks, or social engineering.
  8. Internet of Things (IoT) attacks: IoT attacks involve exploiting vulnerabilities in internet-connected devices, such as smart home appliances or industrial control systems. These attacks can be used to gain access to networks, steal data, or cause physical damage.
  9. Cloud security threats: Cloud security threats involve attacks on cloud-based systems, such as those provided by Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, or Microsoft Azure. These attacks can include data breaches, account hijacking, or denial of service attacks.
  10. Mobile device security threats: Mobile devices are increasingly being targeted by cybercriminals, who use techniques such as malware, phishing, and social engineering to gain access to sensitive information. Mobile devices can also be used as a gateway to attack other devices on a network.
