Online Attacks: Types of Data Breach and Cyber- Attack Prevention Methods

Muhammad Ahmad Baballe, Adamu Hussaini, Mukhtar Ibrahim Bello, Usman Shuaibu Musa

Abstract


Phishing attacks are a common tactic used by cybercriminals to lure unsuspecting users into providing their private information. The need to look for and develop methods of detecting different threat kinds is determined by the detection of the cybersecurity (CS) state of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. In order to prevent some built-in protective mechanisms from the perspective of a possible intruder, software and hardware modifications are made easier thanks to the unification employed in the mass production of IoT devices. It becomes necessary to provide universal techniques for assessing the degree of device cybersecurity utilizing thorough methods of data analysis from both internal and external information sources.
