Advancements and applications of Computer Engineering and Information

Technology are ever changing. Emerging trends aims at creating awareness
about major trends that will define technological disruption in the upcoming
years in the field of Computer Engineering and Information Technology.
These are some emerging areas expected to generate revenue, increasing
demand as IT professionals and open avenues of entrepreneurship

3.0 Actual Methodology Followed:

• First we searched topic on for Emerging Trends in Computer and Information

Technology Microproject.

• And after searched and after discussion we select the topic.

• Then searched information about topic.

• After searching information we confirming the collected the information by

the guide.

• While doing the microproject we study on the information of the Digital

Forensic.

• We prepared report on the basis of collected information.

6
 Need of Cuber Security

• Then Formatting a report and after discussion we corrected in wrong

information.

• And last we confirmed report by guide and make a final report and completed
the report.

4.0 Output of the project :

Why is cyber security important ? Our world today is headed by

technology and we can't do without it at all. From booking our flight tickets to
catching up with an old friend, technology plays a crucial role in it. However, the
same technology may expose you when it's vulnerable and could lead to the
loss of essential data. Cyber security, alongside physical commercial security,
has thus, slowly and steadily, become one of the most essential topics in the
business industry to be talked about Cyber security is essential since it aids in
securing data from threats such as data theft or misuse, also safeguards your
system from viruses. Cyber security becomes necessary as Businesses are being
carried out now on a Network of Networks. Computer networks have always
been the target of criminals, and it is likely that the danger of cyber
security breaking will only rise in the future as these networks grow, but there are
reasonable precautions that organizations can take to minimize losses from those
who desire to do harm

Cyber Security Objective

7
Need of Cuber Security

Confidentiality
the property that information is not created available or revealed to
unauthorized individuals, entities, or processes Confidentiality refers to
guarding information against being accessed by unauthorized parties. In other
words, only the people who are authorized to do so can achieve access to
sensitive data. A failure to maintain confidentiality means that someone who
shouldn't have access has managed to get it, through intentional behavior or by
accident. Such a failure of confidentiality is commonly known as a breach.

Integrity
the property of safeguarding the precision and completeness of assets
Integrity refers to assuring the authenticity of information—that
information is not altered, and that the origin of the information is
authentic. Imagine that you have a website and you sell products on
that site. Now imagine that an attacker can shop on your website and
maliciously alter the prices of your products so that they can buy anything for
whatever price they decide. That would be a failure of integrity because your
data, in this case, the price of a product has been changed and you didn't
authorize this alteration.

Cyberattack
A malicious attempt, using digital technologies, to cause personal or property
loss or damage, and/or steal or alter confidential personal or organizational
data

Major security problems

• Virus
• Hacker
• Malware
• Trojan horses
• Password cracking
8
Need of Cuber Security

1. Viruses and worms

• Virus - malware linked to a carrier such as an email message or a word
processing document
• A Virus is a "program that is crowded onto your a computer without your
understanding and runs against your desires
• Worm - malware can autonomously circulate itself without a carrier,
using information about connected computers.

Solution
• Install a security suite that protects the computer against threats such as
viruses and worms.

2. Hackers
• In common a hacker is an individual who violates computers, usually
by gaining access to administrative controls.

Types of Hackers
• White Hat Hacker
• Grey Hat Hacker
• Black Hat Hacker

a. White Hat Hackers

• The term "white hat" in Internet slang refers to an ethical computer

hacker, or a computer security professional, who specializes in
penetration testing and in other testing methodologies to ensure the
security of an organization's information systems.

b. Grey Hat Hackers

9
Need of Cuber Security

• The term "grey hat", "grey hat" or "gray hat" refers to a computer
hacker or computer security specialist who may sometimes break laws or
typical ethical standards, but does not have the malicious intent typical of a
black hat hacker

c. Black Hat Hacker

• A black hat hacker (or black-hat hacker) is a hacker who "violates

computer shield for little cause beyond maliciousness or for personal gain".

How To prevent hacking

• It may be impossible to prevent computer hacking, however influential

security controls including strong passwords, and the use of firewalls can aid.

Securing Password

• Use always a Strong password.

•Never use the exact password for two different sites.

Insider attacks Attacks

on an organization are carried out by individual who is inside that

organization either by themselves or with the connivance of an outsider.
Difficult to oppose using technical processes as the insider may have proper
credentials to access the system.

External attacks

10
Need of Cuber Security

Attacks on an organization carried out by an external agent Need either

accurate credentials or the exploitation of some vulnerability to gain access
to the systems.

Malicious and accidental damage

Cybersecurity is most concerned with Cyberattacks and Cyber accidents -

Accidental events that can generate loss or damage to a person, business, or
public body. Many of the same technologies utilized to protect against
external attacks also protect against cyber accidents. However, sometimes
protecting against cyber-attacks raises the probability of cyber accidents

Latest Trends - Information Security Threats

Hack Hacktivism

Hack + Activism = Hacktivism is the usage of legal and/or illegal digital tools
in pursuit of a political/
personal objective

Tools and Attacks are utilized for

• website defacements
Hacking and altering the website of a company's website
• Redirects
• Denial of Service Attacks
Attempt to create a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended
users typically target sites
or services hosted on high-profile web servers such as banks, credit card
payment gateways, and even
root nameservers.
• Identity Theft
Stealing someone's identity in which someone pretends to be someone else by
assuming that person's
identity
• E-mail Bombing
• Web-Site Mirroring
• Doxing
Process of Gathering and discharging Personally Identifiable information To
gather information using
sources on the internet
Key Techniques Used
11
Need of Cuber Security

Phishing - attempt to obtain sensitive information, like bank account

information or an account
password, by posing as an honest entity in an electronic communication

You get an email that looks like it comes from your bank, credit card company,
etc. Asking you to
"update their records" may be due to potential scams, or other reasons Provides
a hyperlink to a web
page where you enter your personal information The link takes you to a thief's
website that is
disguised to look like the company's
