In cyber security, an exploit is a way attackers take advantage of certain vulnerabilities and gain malicious access to systems. There are very many types of exploits that exist in the cyber security world. However, I will mention those ones most commonly used.

DoS attacks – The denial of service attacks is very common. Hackers will gain access to servers and send so many packet requests at the same time. The servers become overwhelmed due to too much memory allocation and the huge amount of traffic ends up crashing the servers.

Unauthorized access – When an attacker has an illegal access to host machines

<u>Application Exploitation</u>

Code injection – This exploit can be used to maliciously inject invalid code into an application program or software and as a result change how the program behaves.

Cross-site scripting – Enable hackers inject malicious scripts on a website of a client. Once they have gained access, they will escalate their privileges and have more access to the site.

Clickjacking – A type of attack that tricks unknown victims into clicking links of a web page they believe are legitimate and end up revealing confidential information of themselves.

What is the relation between Information and Data?
Rudiy27

Answer:

In a sentence: data is raw numbers, while information is organized data.

Explanation:

Data is a series of numbers or facts.  A data set is a collection of data that are related (for examples all the students result in your last math exam).  But it's not organized by itself... and rarely mean anything when looked at it in a raw manner.

To make sense of a data collection, you have to analyze it, calculate the mean or median of the data set for example... this is a treatment that has to be done to a data set to give it significance.. after such analysis, the result you have (mean, median, etc..) is a piece of information devired from the data.
