Phishing

The Northridge earthquake in 1994 resulted in 57 fatalities. Thousands were injured, and the economic losses totalled in the billions due to the extensive damage caused by the earthquake in the Los Angeles area.

Phishing is a form of social engineering where attackers try to deceive individuals into providing sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial details, by pretending to be a trustworthy entity.

I guess the question may be equal to how to download Spotify music without Spotify Premium. Right? This way a powerful audio recorder like AudiCable can work it out. With this tool, even if you are not a Spotify Premium user, you can directly download and listen to Spotify songs without Premium. You'll get a user experience similar to Spotify Premium as a result. Of course, the recorded Spotify music is kept with lossless audio quality.

Email forwards usually come from people with little or no social life, sitting at a computer for extended periods of time, just finding funny, touching, shocking, or patriotic pictures, sayings, or videos. They are then compiled into an email and sent to every person on their mailing list or in their E-mail contact list. The people from the contact list then, in turn, send it to everyone in their contact list. And it just builds exponentially until it reaches your own inbox.

10 000 people died during the Mexico City earthquake, but there were also 50 000 injuries, and 250 000 people were made homeless.

The risks of phishing include getting a virus on your computer or phone. You can also be fined very heavily if caught phishing.

Passwords on Facebook, or any other site are a secret. They are to prevent unauthorised access to an account. People do not give out their passwords and using someone else's password to gain access to their account would be, in many cases, highly illegal.

Wikianswers does not know other peoples passwords and would not give them out if we knew them.

Often, these scams use digital signatures or security questions to seem more legitimate than they are.

public-private keys are used to pass sensitive information however it can also be used to provide authentication that a sender is who they say they are. It does not protect the contents of the message, it only proves it is from who it says its from. It provides authentication and integrity but does not provide confidentiality, data is sent as normal but acts like a normal signature we use on a letter. A digital signature works by creating a message digest which ranges from between a 128-bit and a 256-bit number which is generated by running the entire message through a hash algorithm. This generated number is then encrypted with the senders private key and added to the end of the message. When the recipient receives the message they run the message through the same hash algorithm and generate the message digest number. They then decrypt the signature using the senders public key and providing the two numbers match they know the message is from who it says its from AND that is has not been modified. A digital signature is basically a way to ensure that an electronic document (e-mail, spreadsheet, text file, etc.) is authentic. Authentic means that you know who created the document and you know that it has not been altered in any way since that person created it. Digital signatures rely on certain types of encryption to ensure authentication. Encryption is the process of taking all the data that one computer is sending to another and encoding it into a form that only the other computer will be able to decode. Authentication is the process of verifying that information is coming from a trusted source. These two processes work hand in hand for digital signatures.

Phishing has a few clues that you can notice that will help you avoid them:the email has a impersonal greeting that doesn't refer to you by name and the "from" address doesn't match where the email claims to have come from. Usually a company email will have the company's name in its email address. Phishing emails are often asking for information the company should already know, like passwords and other sensitive information. Phishing emails also have are likely to seem "too good to be true" with their offers such as free money or rewards you didn't apply to receive or to win.

To stop Internet phishing protect your computer with software like Norton or McAfee which provide Internet security through firewalls, anti-virus programs, spam filters, and anti-spywares. Also, stop phishing by having all the necessary security updates and only using secured websites, which you can check through the security certificate of the websites you visit.

Phishing means trying to gain someones personal or financial details through hacking.

Pharming means redirecting a websites traffic to another bogus website. (also hacking)

Spillage is when information classified at a higher level is introduced to a computer classified at a lower level. In practice it includes any instance where such information MAY have been introduced. As an example: a laptop computer that is normally connected to a lower classification level network is connected to a higher level network in an attempt to check email. It is unknown if any higher classification data was transferred during the connection. The incident is treated as potential spillage and the hard drive of the computer is now considered classified.

The e-mail contains a generic greeting.

Often, these scams use digital signatures or security questions to seem more legitimate than they are.

"Spearphishing" differs from simple "phishing" in that the attack is specially crafted to fool a specific high value target - whether an individual or a group. Spearphishing attacks are usually preceded by the attacker conducting research on the target to identify the high-value targets (such as company CEO, CFO, etc.) and make the spearphishing email sound as if the attacker is an individual or entity that is well known to the target, thus getting them to let down their guard. Simple phishing attacks just rely on broad observations of human nature such as a desire to get something for free or fear that they might get cut off from their banking service or trust of the IT department. Spearphishing is much more targeted and requires research on the intended victim(s) to escalate its likelihood of success and decrease the likelihood of being detected as spearphishing.
