Reverse engineering

All of these examples lead the hacker to your personnel information. The definition of Reverse engineering is the process of extracting the knowledge. Here’s an example of reverse engineering.

Ring Ring
Hello (me)
Hello Mister Bragg, how are you today? This is Mr. Blahblahblah, I am with (name of your bank goes here), we are calling our account holders to let them know that there has been a breach in one our databases with your online account name and password. It pains us to have to call and tell you this but we want you to be assured we are taking every measure to get you back on track. (Mr. Blahblahblah)
Really, wow sounds like the bank is having a bad day. (Me)
So let’s take care of this right now ok. (Mr. Blahblahblah)
Ok let’s do it. (Me)
Let’s verify your online username and password and change it to a new one. For security reason’s, what is your security password you have set to your account to give us authorization to make these changes. (Mr. Blahblahbla)
Sure, it’s This Or That. (Me)
Great, now that we can make the changes, let’s verify what you have it set to and make the necessary changes. (Mr.Blahblahblah)

So you can see where this is leading. The hacker get’s all of your infomation to your online account with the opportunity to access your bank account.

Dumpster Diving

Come on this has to sound appealing to you. Who doesn’t want to sneak to your house in the middle of the night to look through your trash for any information that could lead them to your account information?
Planting The Thumb Drive

You walk outside to have a smoke and there it is, a thumb drive. You pick it up and think, it’s my lucky day. You walk inside, put it in your computer and pow, the key logger program is loose and you think the thumb drive had no info on it. Later that day you buy something online and give the hacker all of your credit card information.

Trojans

These are more common than you think. Seems there are a lot of people that are downloading stuff for shareware sites. The files you download might not always have exactly what you expected; they might have something extra to it, a Trojan. This allows a hacker to break through your computers defenses to access you computer.

Packet Sniffing

We can talk about wireless hacking here. By listening in on your wireless transmissions, a hacker can gather information that will allow them to study it to get your personnel information. This can also be done over the wire, meaning through your telephone wire of cable modem. If a hacker has any way to intercept your transmission he can access your packets of information.

Username And Password Programs

When you buy software or hardware for firewall or virus protection, it doesn’t stop a persistent hacker. There are many programs out there that will sit and try and find your user name and password to your wireless router or computer. After they have that information they have the keys to the castle. If you have any questions to any computer security or computer related issues, my door is always open.
