Common Types of Attack

Overview

Welcome to Audio Learning from Assemble You.

Hackers conduct cyber attacks to steal information, sabotage one or more systems, or bring down a working network. They can also attack several systems at once, gain control, and use these systems to initiate another attack on a different network altogether.

In this track, we'll learn about social engineering, malware, ransomware, distributed denial of service, Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, insider threats, credential reuse, and mobile attacks.
