TECHNIQUES TO PROTECT AGAINST CYBER ATTACKS
Vinas Khalid Kadhim , University of Karbala, College of Administration and Economics, IraqAbstract
Strong cybersecurity measures are required in this digital era due to the high risk of cyber assaults on people, businesses, and governments. Protecting yourself from cyber threats is the focus of this study, which delves into preventative and reactive measures. To address security weaknesses proactively, it is recommended that advanced encryption technologies and multi-factor authentication (MFA) be implemented and frequent security audits conducted. Implementing intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), real-time monitoring, and quick incident response protocols are all components of reactive methods. In addition, the article delves into how AI and ML improve cyber threat detection and response capabilities by predicting and fighting cyber threats. Users must have cybersecurity education and awareness because user mistakes are still a significant risk. To protect digital assets from the always-changing cyber threat landscape, this paper seeks to offer a broad overview of successful cybersecurity procedures by reviewing existing tactics and emerging developments.
