Making the Lives of Cybercriminals and Spies Harder Online
This article talks about the following: Nicole Perlroth, one of the cybersecurity reporter for The Times throws insights into how cyber theft can be minimised by taking the most critical communications offline so that there is no scope left for online fraud. With the help of a 2-factor authentication with the help of secure browsers, it is always safe to use message encryption apps such as Wickr, Telegram, etc. Though it’s common to see many people giving access about their whereabouts including location and timestamps to 3rd party APPs, its best to block such requests gaining access to your system’s personal information.
It will be interesting to see how things unfold in the future. How will Artificial Intelligence systems such as Bots and Messaging systems prevent cyber theft of critical communication? With companies moving from finger print sensors to facial recognition systems, how secure will it be and how hard will it be for criminals to clone such systems for personal use?
