AN OVERVIEW ON CYBER ATTACKS AND ITS TYPES FOR ENHANCING DATA SECURITY IN BUSINESS WORLD

Abstract

For sensitive data of organizations there is a compelling need of ensuring privacy in several aspects and to inculcate protective measures in systems especially in various high- tech firms. Cyber-attacks are a wide form of threat confronted globally on the web by several users on daily basis. These attacks are fundamentally used to challenge system security of others, there are likewise some moral programmers who get into other people frameworks to make them aware about their vulnerabilities and they also get paid in return for securing such systems. In any case, these assaults have caused a great deal of concern for businessmen. This research covers the major types of cyber-attacks that can affect the business world in an immense manner along with an overview that how these threats work and how they can be possibly prevented. As the hacking mechanisms are showing signs of increased danger in a step by step manner, our frameworks should also take preventive measures to remain safe from all sorts of latest attacks on our data that can possibly attack in various forms.
