Thanks to technology, the world we live in today can be quite a simple one. For instance, home appliances such as TVs, heating systems, air conditioners, and lighting systems can now be controlled remotely using smart devices. We can also grocery shop, buy concert tickets, rent a movie, and order pizza via smartphones without having to leave the house.
The dark side of the coin in this fast-growing, technology-driven world, however, is the threat of cyberattack. The danger of cybercriminals is genuine. Last year, a ring of hackers called the Carbanak gang was discovered by the Kaspersky Lab, where it was reported the ring had stolen over $1 billion from financial institutions around the globe.
