How To Stay Two Steps Ahead Of “Hacker”

As promised,I will be sharing with you some important tips that will help you stay two steps ahead of Cyber criminals.

Remember, Cybersecurity is not just the responsibility of those in the tech industry alone but it is for everyone in the cyber space

It is a conscious and deliberate effort to keep your cyber space safe.

Have you heard of the "Amygdala Hijack"?

Am sure you're wondering what it is all about 😅

First, Let's start by explaining the term "Amygdala". It is the seat of rational thinking,reasoning,decision making and planing.It is located in the frontal lobe of the brain 🧠. Hijack means to take control unlawfully,seize (an aircraft, ship, or vehicle) in transit and force it to go to a different destination or use it for one's own purposes.

The goal of a hacker is to unlawfully take control of your emotions in other to make you do what he/she wants.Hence you need to stay Alert(it's better to be safe than to be sorry).

Did You Know?

Corporate entities in Nigeria and individuals collectively lost the total sum of $800 million to cyberattacks in 2018 and Social Engineering is the #1 Cyberthreat in Nigeria.

In Previous years, postage received letters and bills from friendly postmen on motorcycles. As time passed, it has evolved to meet the demands and expectations of the industry, driven by consumerism. This evolution has brought to life so many delivery options and services in the logistics sector. On-demand delivery and the standard courier delivery service are two of the most popular delivery methods.

On-Demand Delivery Service

On-demand delivery is a service that allows you to have almost anything you want or need be delivered at any time you desire to any location you choose. Everywhere you go, you will find on-demand delivery motorcycles on the road or lined up at commercial areas delivering food, groceries, documents and so much more.On-demand delivery is one of the most used delivery services, so much so that it has become a part of everyone’s daily life. Why? The keyword is instant gratification. It fulfils consumers’ needs immediately within short delivery time, something that has become increasingly prevalent in today’s society.

Why It May Be The Best Option ?

Are there other benefits of on-demand delivery, other than instant gratification? ; Yes!, Real-time Tracking System.

Once you place your order, it will allow you to track your shipment live. It also gives you an estimated delivery time so you know when to expect it. The delivery time given is often fast and accurate, so you can plan your day to day activities accordingly. On-demand delivery is also useful if you need to deliver something urgently, such as a critical document that must be delivered to a client in a nearby town.

Two Common Challenges Faced With On-Demand Delivery Services

The charges are determined by the size of the item that needs to be delivered, where bigger items may result in a more expensive delivery cost than smaller items.
During peak timings, there may be shortage of delivery riders and drivers which can lead to a longer “wait” time. The increase in demand at that time will also result in a higher cost so it’s best to plan your deliveries accordingly

Standard Delivery Service

If delivery time is not an issue, then another popular delivery option is standard courier delivery service. It is still as popular and has evolved the most since. More and more businesses are either opening up shop online or migrating online completely and this has led to an increase in online shopping. Standard courier delivery services have taken up the helm of delivering all these goods to consumers in a timely manner.

What’s Great About It?

One of the best parts of using a standard courier delivery service is that it not only covers a larger area of delivery, but you can also send your parcels or items to virtually anywhere in the country. Larger courier firms also deliver internationally, with a variety of vessels to choose from based on your requirements, timeline, and budget. Using a standard courier delivery service is also cheaper and more convenient than on-demand delivery. If you are a company owner that sends many parcels in a day to multiple locations and states, then a standard courier service is the best option. With a standard courier delivery program, you can also deliver most of the items other than perishables.

Two Common Challenges Faced With Standard Courier Delivery Service

The downside to a standard courier delivery service is that its delivery time is longer than on-demand delivery. If the address is close, it will take at least 2 days to deliver parcels, and more if it is farther.
Parcel tracking can be difficult and inaccurate, though parcels almost always arrive at the receiver's doorstep.

A lot of Folks these days are transitioning into the tech industry, it seams like a trend .

While transitioning into tech offers you a vast amount of opportunities, it's important for you to know what you are getting into before you start your Journey

Here Are A Few Things You Can Learn From My Own Journey

1. Be Prepared Not To Give Up : Every Industry has its own perculiar challenge. The tech industry can be even more challenging for you coming from a "non-tech background " But you must understand that "nothing good grows in a comfortable environment" I heard that statement from Mrs Confidence Staveley, CEO, Cyber Safe Foundation. It did not mean much to me until I started the 7 month intensive course in March. The tech industry is not an easy one , so you must come prepared not to "chicken out"

2. Ask A Lot Of Questions: Google and YouTube should be your biggest allies. Find people who know more than you do and ask them the right questions so you won't lose your way ..

3.Be Involved In A Community Of Like Minds: This is of utmost importance and will make your journey a lot easier . Being in a community has helped me immensely. It's part of the reason why I am enjoying my cybersecurity journey. The support and encouragement you get from such communities will contribute to your success in the industry

4. ENJOY EACH MOMENT AND HAVE FUN!

Last month, I got a message from my friend and it states " Faith turn off your location on Twitter, you teach us Cybersecurity but here you are making the same mistake " 🥴

Something as little as "turning off your location" when you post on your social media platforms can save you from potential threats

Turning off your location on your social media platform is a quick and easy step

👉🏻 First, go to your profile page on your social media platform

👉🏻click on settings

👉🏻select privacy and safty

👉🏻select location

👉🏻select Disabled

vula! you are all done. This procedure may varry from app to app, but it is really easy to navigate .

Go ahead and "turn off your location"

cheers!
