FROM WHICH COUNTRIES DO HACKERS COMMONLY COME ? AND DO THEY ALWAYS COME FROM ABROAD ?
Hackers can operate from anywhere . The focus should be on defending against the attack methods rather than the attacker ' s location . Search for “ Cyber threat maps ” and you will find services that will show live maps of the threat landscapes ( E . g ., Kaspersky , Check Point , Fortinet )
HOW CAN I TELL WHETHER AN UPDATE SUGGESTION IS A SCAM ? WHEN SHOULD I PRESS THE BUTTON ?
Always check if the update request comes from an official source . Avoid clicking on links in emails or pop-ups and update through official app stores or vendor websites .
ANTAGONISTS CAN ALSO BE INTERNAL , SUCH AS A FIRED , RESENTFUL PERSON OR ESPIONAGE . HOW CAN INTERNAL THREATS BE PREVENTED ?
Use role-based access , monitor employee behaviour , and establish clear cybersecurity policies . Regular training and fostering a culture of trust can also minimise risks .
