Protection Cyber-attacks represent a potential threat to information security. As rates of data usage and internet consumption continue to increase, cyber awareness turned to be increasingly urgent. This study focuses on the relationships between cyber security awareness, knowledge and behavior with protection tools among individuals in general and across four countries: Israel, Slovenia, Poland and Turkey in particular. Results show that internet users possess adequate cyber threat awareness but apply only minimal protective measures usually relatively common and simple ones. The study findings also show that higher cyber knowledge is connected to the level of cyber awareness, beyond the differences in respondent country or gender. In addition, awareness is also connected to protection tools, but not to information they were willing to disclose. Lastly, findings exhibit differences between the explored countries that affect the interaction between awareness, knowledge, and behaviors. Results, implications, and recommendations for effective based cyber security training programs are presented and discussed.
There are several information security challenges today. Hackers are now quite skilled at breaking into other people's systems to steal information. Phishing is a type of social engineering attack that is frequently used to acquire user information, such as login credentials and Mastercard numbers. The act of faking a legitimate website to obtain a user's information is known as phishing. Fraudulent phishing emails are the most common type of cybercrime. Phishing is one in all the risks that originated a pair of years back but still prevailing. This paper discusses various phishing attacks, a number of the newest phishing evasion techniques utilized by attackers and anti-phishing approaches. This review raises awareness of these phishing strategies and helps the user to practice phishing prevention. Phishing are targeting payment industry and cloud services the most. We can protect them by using some protocols
The current authentication techniques, such as usernames and passwords, are insufficiently secure to fend off virus attacks and unauthorized access. Most companies with an online platform should implement 2FA and SSO to improve authentication procedures and increase the security of users' information.
