A Review of Contemporary Network Attack Methods and Their Countermeasures
Keywords:
Network attack, Preventive technology, Trojan virus, Social engineering, Firewall, Intrusion detection and prevention system, Data encryptionAbstract
This article comprehensively explores common attack methods in the current network environment, such as DDoS attacks, ransomware, zero day vulnerability exploitation, APT attacks, etc. These methods seriously threaten the network security of individuals, enterprises, and countries. At the same time, this article deeply analyzes prevention technologies such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, encryption techniques, and multi factor identity authentication, and emphasizes the importance of building a comprehensive defense system. By comprehensively applying these prevention technologies, the network security protection capability can be effectively improved and the losses caused by network attacks can be reduced.
