“…Some mechanisms that can be used to prevent such attacks were also discussed in this paper. The change in network performance because of various strategies used to launch MITM attack was studied by Ityas Alodat [15] in his journal. He has further researched on the types of MITM attacks that are present in wireless systems and their ways to prevent them.…”

In the present digital world where everyone is trying to digitalize their data and assets, cyber-attacks and cyber-crimes have made their presence felt much more than when compared to the previous period. During the pandemic days, the number of state sponsored and nation sponsored threat actors who pose the threat of attacking our organizational assets has increased rapidly. Organizations, especially which fall under the critical information infrastructure are becoming an increasingly common target for cyber-attacks. The rate has alarmingly gone up that the national and state government have started to give more attention and focus to cyber security and cyber-crimes. Specific bodies have been assigned by the government to notify about threats/attacks and also to suggest possible techniques to mitigate these threats/attacks. Most devices that are used in these organization are either using older versions of devices or the devices used are not properly cyber secured. This vulnerability is most often taken advantage of by the attacker when trying to access and compromise the organization. Another factor leading to cyber breaches and attacks is the limited or low competency level of employees who work in these organizations. Employees with weak cybersecurity knowledge are the main entry point for online fraud, viruses, and other threats. This creates a situation where business owners and managers should focus on teaching employees the importance of strong digital security. This report describes different techniques and tools which can be used to detect vulnerabilities or threats present in our system, the different cyber-attacks that can take place exploiting these identified vulnerabilities: How to generate an attack, How to identify an attack and How to prevent an attack. Further on, how we can create an environment, where individuals can have hands-on experience on how to detect different cyber threats or vulnerabilities present on a device which makes them confident enough to identify a cyber-attack or threat at an early stage and deploy preventive measures against it is also discussed.
