CIBERDELITOS

Los regalos navideños pueden llegar a ser la puerta de entrada perfecta para los ciberdelincuentes

Contando con la confianza de los usuarios al situarse dentro del entorno de su hogar, los dispositivos IoT cuentan con numerosas vulnerabilidades que podrían afectar a toda nuestra red.

Estas Navidades uno de los regalos estrella sin duda han sido los dispositivos inteligentes, desde teléfonos, tabletas, ordenadores, hasta electrodomésticos como televisores, luces y bombillas, cafeteras, aspiradores, y un gran listado de gadgets para el hogar. Regalos que, aunque sin duda nos traen mucha felicidad, podrían traernos algunos resultados no tan deseados.

Y es que tal y como señalan desde Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), las capacidades de los ciberdelincuentes mostrados en algunas películas o series de televisión como Mr. Robot, no se limitan en exclusiva a la ficción, sino que pueden llegar a producirse en la realidad. ¿Podrían los atacantes cerrar la brecha entre la red IoT física (las bombillas) y atacar objetivos aún más atractivos, como la red informática en nuestros hogares, oficinas o incluso nuestra ciudad inteligente?

La respuesta es sí. A medida que se utilizan más y más dispositivos inteligentes en el hogar, los ciberatacantes comienzan a cambiar su enfoque de apuntar a dispositivos individuales a piratear las aplicaciones que controlan las redes de dispositivos IoT, ofreciéndoles aún más oportunidades para causar interrupciones en los hogares de los usuarios y acceder a sus datos confidenciales.

En solo unas décadas, los datos de IoT han crecido exponencialmente, y todo apunta a que estas cifras continúen en aumento. En 2021, había más de 10.000 millones de dispositivos de IoT en todo el mundo, una cifra que según las estimaciones de IDC, alcance una generación de datos globales superior a los 73 zettabytes (o 73 billones de gigabytes) para 2025.

Es por eso por lo que resulta esencial que los fabricantes de IoT se centren en proteger los dispositivos inteligentes contra ataques mediante la implementación de una seguridad sólida durante ambos diseño del software y los dispositivos en sí, en lugar de agregar seguridad más adelante como una ocurrencia tardía. Sin embargo, los usuarios también deben ser conscientes de los riesgos de seguridad y privacidad cuando usan sus dispositivos. A continuación os sugerimos algunos conejos esenciales con los que apoyar la seguridad de estos dispositivos IoT cuando los usemos:

•    Usar siempre contraseñas personalizadas y seguras: en muchas ocasiones, los usuarios tienden a realizar una configuración básica para sus dispositivos, manteniendo las contraseñas de serie o incluso obviando este factor de seguridad al creer erróneamente que, al estar dentro de casa, están ya protegidos. Al igual que con cualquier otro dispositivo conectado a una red, es recomendable que mantengamos siempre activas tantas barreras como podamos, utilizando contraseñas únicas formadas con mayúsculas y minúsculas, caracteres especiales y números.

•    Mantener nuestros dispositivos siempre actualizados: más allá de buscar tener nuevas funciones, estar al día con todas las actualizaciones y parches disponibles nos ayudará a evitar posibles vulnerabilidades. Y es que con que tan sólo uno de nuestros dispositivos conectados cuente con una brecha, toda nuestra red podría estar en peligro.

•    Prevenir la exposición de datos sensibles: a diferencia de otros canales, la mayoría de los dispositivos IoT no cuentan con mecanismos suficientes para proteger y resguardar la información que se guarda, procesa o trasmite a través de ellos, sin contar con ningún tipo de mecanismos de encriptado. Datos como contraseñas, cuentas bancarias e incluso archivos de índole personal deberían ser tratados siempre con sumo cuidado.

“Es fundamental que organizaciones y particulares se protejan contra estos posibles ataques manteniendo actualizados sus dispositivos con los parches más recientes”, comparte Eusebio Nieva, director técnico de Check Point para España y Portugal. “Estos sucesos son un poderoso recordatorio de que, en el actual y complejo panorama de ataques de quinta generación, nadie puede pasar por alto la seguridad de ninguna parte de sus redes. Check Point es el primer proveedor en brindar una solución de seguridad consolidada que fortalece y protege el firmware de los dispositivos IoT”.

El uso de una tecnología Check Point recientemente adquirida permite a la organización mitigar los ataques a nivel de dispositivo antes de que los dispositivos se vean comprometidos utilizando la protección de tiempo de ejecución en el dispositivo.

    Nicole Kidman - 24-04-2023 07:16:06

    Hi everyone my name is Nicole Kidman from Las Vegas and I am here to also give gratitude to Dr Isikolo whom God used to savage my situation and restore the joy and happiness in my home. I lost my husband to a lady abroad when he went to work in the same region where she lives. I never knew all that happened till a friend of mine sent me photos of both together and it was known to me after then that it was the reason why my husband grew cold towards me and left me behind. My husband was hypnotized and mind controlled and I knew everything when I contacted Dr Isikolo when I searched for help and found none. He assured me of his return and having our love and happiness restored back which he did and the result started manifesting after 48 hours. Now I have my man back and I can't thank Dr Isikolo enough for his honesty and support. Just text him via WhatsApp +2348133261196 or email him via: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com or read more about him via his website (https://isikolotemple.com)

    I was skeptical when I first heard about a platform claiming to recover lost money for people, but I decided to try it. I had lost a significant amount of money due to a scam and had little hope of ever recovering it. However, this platform proved me wrong. Their team of experts worked tirelessly to trace the money and retrieve it, and in the end, I received the full amount that I had lost. I was amazed by their professionalism, dedication, and efficiency throughout the process. I couldn't be more grateful for their services, and I highly recommend their platform to anyone who has lost money due to scams or any other reason.

    I thought I would capitalize on the cryptocurrency market when it was up but with little knowledge about it, I was scammed by a fake cryptocurrency company that stole all the money I had invested into my account. I was very sad and depressed considering the amount of money that I lost to these fake crypto companies, but I shared my story with my colleagues at work who told me about a cryptocurrency recovery team Wardrivers Cyber, I was a bit skeptical about it but I decided to contact them if they could assist me to recover my crypto, Wardrivers Cyber requested for some information and a service fee which I didn’t hesitate to provide, to my surprise, WARDRIVERS was able to recover all the crypto which was around $98,000 including my bonus back to my wallet address. I’m truly grateful for their support and selfless service. I highly recommend their service to everyone who wishes to recover their crypto, you can reach them via email.

    I have always dreamed of living a life of financial freedom, but I never thought it would be possible for me.all that changed when I discovered Prof.Albertsons Ainsley an American helping people financially who can afford the service and willing to deal transparently so reached out to him and got myself a blank ATM card for $500 with $10,000 balance inside the card. Email: creditsfinancesolution@yahoo.com Email:creditcards.atm@gmail.com I was amazed by how easy it was to use the card. Within minutes, I was able to withdraw $5,000 from an ATM, and I did this for weeks without any issues. Thanks to Prof.Albertsons Ainsley , I was able to withdraw a total of $25,000 in just three week, which helped me pay off my debts and start investing in my future. But the best part is that using the card is 100% discreet and secure, so I never had to worry about getting caught. It's incredible how simple it was to change my life for the better. Prof.Albertsons Ainsley also helped me with other services, including hacking transfers and recovering my stolen cryptocurrency.

    I was scammed by a binary option website iq options to be exact. I lost about $450,000 to them. It was a really hard time for me because that was all i had and they tricked me into investing the money with a guarantee that i will make profit from the investment.. I was referred to "MYSTERIOUS HACKER", they are recovery specialists for all types of online scams, they helped me in recovering all my lost funds I couldn’t believe at first that this was possible as i have lost all hope in contacting anyone on the internet, but i guess not everyone is bad after all. You can reach them on : mysterioushack666@cyber-wizard.com

    BITCOIN RECOVERY IS VERY MUCH REAL, AM A LIVING TESTIMONY!!!! I was actually fooled and scammed over ( $753,000 ) by someone I trusted with my funds through a transaction we did and I feel so disappointed and hurt knowing that someone can steal from you without remorse after trusting them, so I started searching for help legally to recover my stolen funds and latter came across a lot of testimonials about JAMESMCKAYWIZARD, an agent who helps in recovering lost funds, which I can tell has helped so many people who had contacted him regarding such issues and without a questionable doubt their funds was returned back to their wallet in a very short space of time, it took the expert 48hours to help me recover my funds and the best part of it all was that the scammers was actually located and arrested by local authorities in his region which was very relieving. Hope this helps as many people who have lost their hard earned money to scammers out of trust, you can reach him through the link below for help to recover your scammed funds and thank me later.

    Am sharing this testimony because I promise Morgan hacks that I will tell the world about his good work. Thanks once again Morgan hacks. I have been depressed for a long time now, trying to get back my lost funds to the IQ option scam. I went on going through some different forums online, to see if they will be a way out. I read lots of other victim stories, finally, and luckily for me, I found David Williams's story, talking about how some victims recovered their money back. through the help of morgan's hacks. I reached out to them via morganhackspecialist@consultant.com I was amazed by their response and how they handled everything, he gave me evidence to support my claims. I was amazed to get my $40400 back from Tor options. To those out there, give him a try and you will be happy again.
