Imagine that a fraudster has found out your password and wants to log into your Instagram to ask for money from friends on your behalf. He enters the password, enters the application and starts sending out pitiful messages that supposedly you urgently need help. Your friends are worried and send money. Later you come in and realize that you have been hacked, and the scammers have already received a significant amount from a lot of people.

It’s good that there is a way to protect yourself from hacking — this is two-factor authentication.

If you have enabled two-factor authentication, the situation will develop differently. The fraudster will enter the password, but will not log in to the account, because you need to specify the code from the Application (google authenticator) that will come to your phone or application. If the fraudster does not have access to your phone, then he will not get access to your profile.

If you didn’t have time to connect it or don’t know what it is, it’s worth spending a few minutes on this publication and protecting your profiles.

If not every day, then quite often we can observe in the news headlines that a particular company, organization, firm was hacked and lost the data of its millions of users due to a hacker attack, a zero-day exploit, a software glitch or because of the «straightforwardness» of the hands of its programmers.

It is possible that a social network, applications, an online game or another Internet resource that we regularly use has already been among the hacked ones or may be in the future.

How do I know if you are a victim? Have you been hacked? How do I determine if you have an account (login, email address) that has been compromised in a data breach? Do you have a strong password or is it completely insecure? How to prevent a potential hacking threat?

haveibeenpwned service — will help us with this. Let’s take a closer look at what it is and how it works.

ОО «Кыргызское Отделение Интернет Общества» (Айсок) при содействии Фонда Сороса в Кыргызстане @soroskyrgyzstan запустили проект «Tech4Society» для поддержки активистов, журналистов и гражданского сектора по вопросам цифровой безопасности.

Let’s explain the vulnerability scanning process using an example of a clear idea: Imagine that you wanted to know the level of security of your home.
Some countries have such services. You have called a specialist, signed a document or an agreement. He will start from the street, check:
— how easy is it to open the gate;
— reliability of locks;
— is it easy to climb over the fence;
— how easy it is to deceive the security system, blind cameras and sensors.
After entering the territory of your site, he tries to enter the house: he will check the door locks, whether it is possible to get through the windows, roof or balcony. If you have a smart home system, then he may be trying to hack it. After entering the house, he will check the security of all rooms, as well as whether you are securely storing your valuables, weapons or other important things.
After all the procedures are completed, a report will be compiled for you, vulnerabilities will be shown, tips and recommendations will be given that it is necessary to fix and strengthen protection.

Similarly, the vulnerability scanner program will break through each level of protection of your website and at the end will make a report with the results.

Our team will give you explanations and explanations on the results of the report in Russian and Kyrgyz.
