ELIJAH LEWIS
Cybersecurity has been developing as a new concept in the world. It has the potential to disrupt world peace and also to maintain it all the more better. I had been an avid reader of science fiction for the past few years. One day I was reading a novel about a cyberattack on the states nuclear facility when I snoozed for a while and had a nightmare. What I saw in the dream resembled the climax of one of the movies from the X-Men franchise in which Apocalypse triggers the nuclear missiles around the globe to kick off and hit the targets in other countries. I saw that a powerful hacking group that belonged to a rogue nation-state hacked into the computer network systems of North Korea and released the nuclear warheads aiming at the United States. This kicked off a series of attacks and rebuttals from other nations. It was just like a chain reaction that went on end until there was nothing left in the world. Only the thought of it was destructive, to say the least.
More than once, I think that what would have happened had North Korea succeeded in shutting down the power grid of the United States instead of stealing documents from Sony Pictures Entertainment. What would have happened? What would be the reaction of the United States had it happened? Some defense analysts believe cybersecurity attacks are a blessing in disguise as they offer countries to use proxies to vindicate the feelings of revenge. It saves the world from landing into an all-out war. Some say that it is the most serious threat in the history of the world as the attacker is unknown which causes confusion, and confusion will result in a state of war. So, this can make the matter worse.
What This Book Has to Offer
This book aims at covering a wide range of topics related to cybersecurity issues. This book is written for the students of technology and international relations, as it discussed from a wide range of aspects the issue of cybersecurity and its geopolitical repercussions. This book is divided into different chapters that deal with a wide range of topics and subtopics. Here is a chapter-wise breakdown of the book to give you an insight into what you will find inside the chapters.
- The first chapter aims at dealing with the fundamentals of cybersecurity. You will have the definition of cybersecurity. You will learn about the importance of the protection of smartphones and web applications, and social media and its role in cybersecurity. The next topic is the importance of email networks and certain electronic devices and their role in ensuring security. The chapter goes on to deal with the issue of the emergence of cybersecurity in the modern world. Ill discuss in detail how cybersecurity as a field of study rose to prominence after hackers broke into several facilities and state institutions. The chapter concludes by explaining what dark web is and why it is so important to hackers. It explains what happens on the dark web, how it operates, and how a common person can use it. Ill also debunk the myth and prove that dark web is, after all, not so much dark. Instead, common users use dark web to ensure their online privacy. However, some arguments go directly against the dark web especially the tendency of the dark web to facilitate some illegal activities such as transportation of some banned drugs right through postal services.
- The second chapter explains the why a cybercriminal attacks a facility why it infiltrates a critical infrastructure. Ill explain the importance of the motive of profit behind an attack. Cyber-espionage is one motive that keeps hackers on edge. I have categorized espionage into two parts, such as driven by the corporate sector and backed by the state machinery. A corporate sector spies on its competitors to steal their trade secrets while the state machinery does this to know the strategic state of its competitors. Then Ill move on to explain what type of industries are at the weak end of the spectrum when it comes to a cyberattack. Ill explain what the point of attraction that a hacker sees when he attacks an industry is. Ill cover up different industries such as the health sector, the public sector departments, the financial firms and the food sector.
- Cyberattacks are not always about a few computers and the internet of things (IoT). Sometimes things go into the physical world and thats what we dub as social engineering. Ill go into the depths of social engineering such as how to execute it and what are the objectives of social engineering. Ill explain how to conduct a social engineering attack efficiently. Ill also explain why social engineering attack becomes necessary to accomplish a hackers objective. Several factors come into play when hacker plans a social engineering attack. This spans around the trust factor between the manipulator and the victim. Social engineering is a cunning method to manipulate an employee of the organization that a hacker wants to attack. At the end of the chapter, I have given some practical steps to counter this kind of manipulation and attack. If you give it a careful read, you will be able to train your employees to conquer such a situation effectively. Ill explain why the employees of an organization are the most powerful tool and at the same time, are also the most vulnerable part of an organization.
