Description:
🌐 In this video, we dive deep into the world of cyber attacks, explaining the different types of attacks hackers use to compromise systems and steal sensitive data. Cybersecurity is no longer an option—it's a necessity. Join us as we break down these common attack methods and provide real-life examples to help you understand how these attacks happen and how to stay protected.

Here’s what we’ll cover in this video:
1️⃣ Phishing Attacks:

Phishing is a deceptive tactic where hackers impersonate trusted entities, such as banks or companies, to trick individuals into sharing sensitive information like passwords and credit card details.
Real-Life Example: The 2016 Google and Facebook scam where hackers used fake invoices to steal $100 million.
2️⃣ Malware:

Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm or disrupt systems. It includes viruses, worms, trojans, and spyware that can delete data, steal information, or cause system malfunctions.
Real-Life Example: The Stuxnet malware attack, which targeted Iran's nuclear centrifuges in 2010, disrupted operations by causing physical damage to industrial systems.
3️⃣ Ransomware:

Ransomware is a type of malware where hackers lock users out of their systems or encrypt their data and demand payment (often in cryptocurrency) to restore access.
Real-Life Example: The WannaCry ransomware attack in 2017 affected over 150 countries, encrypting data on thousands of systems and causing billions of dollars in damages.
4️⃣ DoS and DDoS Attacks (Denial of Service):

These attacks overload servers with traffic, causing websites or services to crash and become inaccessible.
Real-Life Example: The 2016 Dyn DDoS attack took down major websites like Twitter, Netflix, and Reddit.
5️⃣ SQL Injection:

A technique where hackers exploit vulnerabilities in a website’s database by injecting malicious SQL queries. This can result in unauthorized access to sensitive information.
Real-Life Example: The 2015 attack on a UK website, TalkTalk, compromised the personal data of thousands of customers.
6️⃣ Zero-Day Exploit:

A zero-day exploit takes advantage of unknown vulnerabilities in software or systems. These are highly dangerous because no patch or fix exists at the time of the attack.
Real-Life Example: The Stuxnet worm (2010) used zero-day vulnerabilities to sabotage Iran’s nuclear centrifuges.
7️⃣ Social Engineering:

Social engineering attacks manipulate human emotions, such as trust or fear, to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information.
Real-Life Example: The 2020 Twitter hack, where attackers pretended to be tech support and gained access to high-profile accounts like Elon Musk and Bill Gates.
8️⃣ Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) Attacks:

Hackers intercept communication between two parties, often by setting up fake Wi-Fi networks or spoofing websites, to steal sensitive information.
Real-Life Example: A 2011 MITM attack targeted Iranian banks, redirecting users to fake banking websites to steal their login credentials.
