Stay Ahead of Hackers with our TOP tips | The One Point

Common Hacking Techniques 

As technology evolves, so do the methods used by cybercriminals. While some hackers still rely on traditional approaches, such as brute force attacks, many have turned to more sophisticated techniques. Here are some of the most common methods used today: 

1. Bait and Switch 

Hackers disguise malicious software as legitimate applications. Once a user installs the fake program, the attacker gains unauthorised access to the system — often without the user realising it. 

2. Phishing 

Phishing attacks involve impersonating trusted websites or contacts to trick users into clicking on spoofed links or submitting personal data. When combined with social engineering, phishing has become one of the most dangerous and widespread attack methods. 


How to Protect Yourself
 

Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are some essential practices to improve your online safety: 

Keep Software Up to Date 

Outdated software often contains vulnerabilities that hackers can exploit. Regular updates ensure that security patches are applied, significantly reducing your risk. 

Back Up Your Data 

Follow the 3-2-1 rule: Keep three copies of your data stored on two different types of media, with one copy stored offsite. This helps ensure a quick recovery in the event of an attack. 

Avoid Public Wi-Fi 

Public networks are typically unsecure and make it easier for attackers to intercept your data — including passwords and financial details. Use a VPN if you must connect to public Wi-Fi. 

Use Strong, Unique Passwords 

Create complex passwords that combine letters, numbers, and symbols. Don’t reuse passwords across accounts — instead, use a trusted password manager to store and organise them securely.
