would get correlated with the cybercrime rings and those folks would simply monitor someone’s email
accounts and get whatever they want to have. On the other hand, it’s quite logical that the hackers could
make the breach into someone’s IT system, but it’s also quite convenient to track someone’s email
communications.
Some countermeasures to these scenarios
As we would suggest, the small businesses coping with the poor cyber security and contributing a lot to
the entire economies could be so easy target to the bad guys. In so many parts of the world, the small
businesses would get recognized as the critical infrastructure being from the strategic importance to the
entire nations. In our opinion, the best feasible way to prevent these scenarios even happen could be to
run some awareness campaigns and programs that would warn and teach the people how to deal with
such situations. The situational awareness could be from the crucial significance to many and even if we
make the untraceable email with the great access control – there is no place for a relaxation for a reason
the attack could appear whenever, so far.
The conclusions
Finally, what we need at this stage is so branding new and innovating technology that would give us the
chance to combat the cybercrime as well as the frauds anytime and anywhere. It’s quite obvious
everything got correlated with everything and the entire defense and intelligence landscape could seem
as so complex and dynamic. The point is it’s so necessary to think in advance and figure out how your
threats think and what they really want, so far. Only then you would be in position to overcome all possible
obstacles and talk about some sort of the best practice on.
