INTRODUCTION:
Internet is getting more important part for communication. Internet is very powerful platform that has changed way we communicate. The internet has become a globalized communication media. But at the same time, computer hacking is increasing very rapidly.
Hackers are people, who try to get unauthorized access to the system. We can protect our systems by using firewall and anti-virus software. But some users access internet for some very confidential work, using firewall and antivirus are also not sufficient to keep communication secure.
A security is deals with the three ideas:
1) Prevention: The main purpose of this is, we have to stop the attackers. Consider a day to today example, House, can be keep secure by preventing

Technically we use these ideas in all security aspects. For example, the military, as it is important to know enemy, what strategy he/she uses to hack, what tools he/she use to hack and what’s his/her aim is for.
Another example, Internet online banking, social networking or other services, you may be in the risk of hacker from personal information and confidential information. Hacker may access your information through unsecured connections or by virus software and then use your personal details for their benefit. This may lead a very serious trouble.
For this problem the only solution is to detect the hacker and prevent hacker from the sites or just block the IP address of the hacker. To gather as much as information as possible and detect the attacker. This we can do with the Honeypot tool.
The goal of Honeypot is silently collect the information as much as possible about their attack patterns, used programs, purpose of attack and block the community.
A Honeypot is used in computer and Internet security. It is a resource, which is intended to be attacked and computerized to gain information about the attacker, and used tools. It a honeypot is successful by gathering the information, intruder will have no idea that he/she is being scanned and monitored. Honeypots are installed inside firewalls, so they can control in better way, though firewall it is possible to install
In the early days of computing, a hacker was primarily referred to as a computer guru, someone who is extremely technical with a high expertise in computer also known as “Expert Programmers”. Nevertheless, as technology is advancing at a face pace, hacking has adopted a completely different definition. The modern definition is someone who access a computer system primarily to steal or destroy information. Hacking has caused major harm in the realm of technology. Over the years, hackers have become much more lethal in their craft. They manage to break into complex information systems from entities such as banks, government agencies, and private businesses. Furthermore, they often manipulate their victims through social engineering in order to obtain financial benefits. Hackers hold different label such as: black hat hacker and white hat hacker in which all have their own motives.
All operating systems must provide some measure of security to protect the users accounts from unauthorized access. Hacking seems to be the national pastime these days and when this is a national pastime people need to make their computers/accounts more safe. Security warns you of websites which could cause viruses also if the computer has an virus the security system will remove the virus. The most important thing the security protects is information and data that is stored in the computer system.
Linton (2011, p.44) stated that hacking of network of common users and attacking their personal computers is one of the most threatening problems at present. It is happening in every second that results in a loss in several ways like loss of credentials, personal information etcetera. Although the use of personal computers and the internet has been increased rapidly, numbers of users who are the expert and have good knowledge to tackle the matters are very rare. In addition, time, as well as required equipment to protect hacking, is also very.
In today’s modern world of security threats, intelligence and the ability to respond to incidents are the keys to survival. As technology continues to change and advance, we also must change our security procedure and techniques. Dina Evans from LookingGlass has a good definition of threat intelligence, “We define threat intelligence as the combination of technical and contextual information regarding existing or emerging threats from all available sources. It has been evaluated and analyzed for accuracy, timeliness, and relevancy, and implemented among an organization’s tactical, operational, and strategic stakeholders.” (Evans, 2016). The process of threat intelligence feeds into all
The purpose of the physical security is saved the information system. The automated information system is risky to use computers for everything. The treat of information system is attacking the communication or information components in order to control the infrastructure.
When people think of hacking, they think of the Matrix style hacking where they look at an interpretable screen with falling green symbols. Contrary to popular belief, hacking has become much easier as technology advances and more wireless alternatives become available such as bluetooth cars and phones. Technology companies have also begun to increase their security and has slowed the amount of attacks and has reduced the amount of personal information that can be stolen . However, even
A computer hacker is someone who can break into your computer and steal whatever information you have in your system. All of your private information that you think is safe, is not safe anymore. These hackers can take the

They are 20 000 species of honey bee in the world, they all have a different ecological niche. They have a different habitat in the way they live, and eat.Honeybees were brought by the Europeans in the 1600s to the North America, honey bees spreaded throughout the area. Honey bees produce honey and pollinate crops (they are dependant on fruits and nuts).
I just found a honey bee hive in a hole in a tree in my back yord. The honey bee hive shelter up to 80,00 honey bees and there young.A honey bee hive is made of bees wax and inside the honey bee hive there are cells that store food for about a year and can be used as a nursery.Also a group of cells form a honey bee hive.
Social media a main source for a hacker and one easy way of stopping anything from taking place is to watch what you post. For example The Kim Kardashian scandal where she was in Paris for a fashion show and later on while in a hotel she was robbed all because of social media. The
A port scan can be used for benign reasons as they are tool for network administrators to see what services are running on the machine. The scan sends a signal to each port one at a time and depending on the type of response the port is deemed open or closed. "A port scan is a method used by intruders to discover the services running on a target machine. It allows the attacked to see which ports are more vulnerable than others. It is equivalent to a burglar or thief canvassing a whole neighborhood to see which houses are less protected and more vulnerable. There are ways to defend yourselves from this type of attack but it requires one to assume that you are vulnerable completely. No one machine on a network is completely safe from an intruder. There are numerous products that can help protect you from these types of intrusions but simply turning your unused services off can be the biggest step toward securing your ports. "For example, in a Windows XP platform you would click on start, then run, type “services.msc” without the quotes, and click ok. After that a list of services will appear" (Facts, 2014). Then you would choose which services to disable and you're
Hackers by definition are persons who use computers to gain unauthorized access to data. Hackers are people who by use their knowledge in hacking and are categorized by how they use their knowledge in hacking. There are blackhat hackers, whitehat hackers, greyhat hackers, script Kiddie, and hacktivist. Blackhat hackers, unfortunately, are the reason why hackers are defined as or synonymous to being a cybercriminal because these kinds of hackers are. ("Types Of Hackers", n.d).
In today’s world Internet has become one of the most important mediums of communication. It has become the lifeline of our survival. It has removed the entire social, economic and physical barrier and has immense effect on our day to day activity.
Outsider attackers often called hackers because they gain access to system without authorization or permission from the owners or legitimate user. With information technology, comes increase risk of fraud and information theft. Hackers can steel sensitive information from one organization and sell it to a
