The most dangerous attackers often aren't breaking in-they're already inside, watching, adapting, and waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Introduction

• Exploring whether hackers are lurking in personal systems, watching user activities.

• Uncovering hidden threats is critical to safeguarding data and privacy.

The Real Risks

• Hackers can access emails, browsing history, and even physical location if a system is compromised.

• Adapting attacks based on user activity is a major concern.

Platform Defense Approach

• Cyber Secure Online’s platform leverages a structured triage process:

  • Filtering and validating alerts.

• Scoring and prioritizing risks using behavioral baselines and anomaly detection.
