Warm greetings everyone! My day has been quite long, filled with extensive workouts, brainstorming sessions, navigating traffic, and contemplating effective ways to teach non-technical individuals about best practices for protecting their digital assets. Before drafting this post, I envisioned myself addressing a group of people. I got up at 11:30 p.m. and switched to presentation mode. I told them, "Imagine we are in a room together and I enter with a ShihTzu puppy. Each of you would smile and want to play with it because it’s a friendly, playful puppy. However, if I come into the same room with a non-venomous snake, everyone immediately goes on guard. Why? because It’s a snake (an inherent threat to humanity). Every single one of you should always keep in mind the idea of being in a room with “snakes” since, with technology evolving at a constant pace, even the smallest details (footprints on the web) automatically turn into threats. During Events like Black Friday most people have untrained eyes even 'devs' at some point fall for this trick which has been the most efficient form of entry point which can lead to back doors in a targeted system than most people think. Phishing has also been a form of Privilege escalation in recent times where Threat Actors visibly make use of 'Traffic surge' as a major factor when dealing with Non Technical users on the web. These has led to many incidents in the past years.
