<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<\/h1>\n\n\n\nCyber Attacks refer to any malicious intent that strikes or disrupts the function of a computer, network, mobile device, and its supporting applications. Attackers use a variety of tools to launch these attacks, including malware, ransomware, exploit frameworks, harmful programs, and many other methods. A combination of Anti-malware<\/a>, Intrusion Detection Systems<\/a> and firewalls<\/a> can help in detecting and protecting computers from cyber attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, all forms of attack usually occur within a network and through the internet, all forms of cyberattacks need to be recognized and understand how each attack might affect a computer system and also in order to recognize each form of attack and know the guard against them. Other Network Security Countermeasures<\/a> with Intrusion Detection systems are established based on the types of attacks commonly conducted by attackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Malware Attack <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – DoS \/ DDoS Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – SQL Injection Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Phishing Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – XSS & JavaScript Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Password Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Spoofing Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Social Engineering Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Eavesdropping Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Sniffing Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Man-in-the-middle Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Metasploit Attack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nTypes Of Cyber Attacks:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
