Computers around the world are systematically being victimized by rampant hacking. This hacking is not only widespread, but is being executed so flawlessly that the attackers compromise a system, steal everything of value and completely erase their tracks within 20 minutes.
While most of the companies are ignorant of their security controls, many succumb to hackers inspite of having the best security systems and policies in place. Breaking sites, defacing them with anti national and porno messages, reading the e-mail secretly, cracking mail passwords,stealing credit card numbers from online shopping site or implant software that will secretly transmit their organization’s secrets to the open Internet have become rampant in the recent past. While the best of security continues to get broken time to time by the determined hackers, what options can a helpless organizations look forward to?
Even in cyber cafes(where most of us regularly visit) ,when we type our mail id and password, a simple software can trap it and your details activity can be mailed to an unknown person,without any knowledge of the user.How a normal individual will protect his privacy and cope with these sort of situation?
It is no longer adequate to buy and install a simple software package and let it run. Companies need specialists, IT professionals dedicated to network security and trained to find security holes and fix them before they can be exploited.
Globally, with a tremendous rise in cyber crime, there is a rapidly growing demand for highly skilled professional called ethical hackers who can safeguard the Internet and corporate networks and their web sites.
The job of ethical hackers is to get into the minds of the computer criminals, think like them and come up with innovative methods to protect computer systems and corporate networks.
Though we have thousands of security consultants from various companies, very few of them are actually aware of measures to counter hacker threats. So,India needs institutions which would train companies or students in the art of defending their own cyberspace.
