I was a victim of a bitcoin hack this year, lost a lot of bitcoin. I've since changed how I use the internet. It's been quite the learning experience, so for everyone reading this. BE CAREFUL 🔒🔒🔒
I was the victim of a hack last year on poloniex because i didn't had 2FA turned on for a second. I bought a new phone so i had to migrate my google authenticator app from the old phone to the new. That's when i got hacked by an ethereum botnet. They stole about 10k dollar in ethereum (when it was still worth 40 dollar per coin) and left all my other coins alone. Exchanges can be dangerous!
It was very fast indeed but i was hacked by a botnet so the process of hacking goes automatically. I made the stupid mistake of using the same password for multiple things. Because i later found out that my email got hacked a few years earlier. That's probably how the botnet got my password.
AI isn't necessarily the abomination of mankind.
It is already helping us in many ways, and could secure our wealth and help advance our medical facilities (even).
In general, internet security is multi-dimensional, in that it includes at least three layers:
the security and integrity of the technology or platform one is using,
the reliability and ethics of the platform vendor (i.e. their platform may be rock solid & secure from a purely technological point of view, but they may or may not be deploying the platform in a manner that respects the security of the user's data), and
the user's own online practices, be it in how they manage passwords, the extent to which they assume that nothing is private, their choices of operating system and applications, as well as the amount of research they do before trusting any platform with their data.
Out of the three, only the third is 100% in the user's control.
no doubt increment is the priority for some and attract many but stability and security of jobs is on the top. increment is valuable only if we have jobs
It's not.
But global internet penetration in developing nations is relatively new. You need to broaden your horizons and recognize the reality that billions of people still do not have access to the web, but will veru soon.
this is the fear of crypto beginners, the security of hard-earned invested coins. I have that kind of fear too in the beginning but I learned how to keep mine secured and determine whether or not trading/investment is legit or not. been scammed too, and so thanks to this kind of posts to help us crypto enthusiast know more. read and learn more, that's the key!
As projects like Cloudbric make the web and people's data/assets more secure, we should see a parallel increase in willingness to hold decentralized currencies.
@hatu - This is very good technology and marriage of Blockchain with AI for common goods with the help of common citizens. I love it. Would use when come out.
Cyrptocurrency is becoming very popular now and has become a threat even to the US dollars. But, unfortunately, it leaves an impression to be unsafe due to the scams.
I came across an article that talked about cryptos that failed due to scam! And it's quite surprising to see the amount of loss! Too bad for the victims...
internet security is the major fear of the fastest growing technology. however, it shouldn't be the reason to keep us from trying new things that technology has to offer, like Bitcoins for instance. of course, it is necessary to study well, read and research more before you get yourself engaged to this cryptocurrency. it is growing, we cannot deny the fact because many took risks, study, and continuously learning that's why our community grows. more of this post please so everybody will be more enlighten!
You know apart from using artificial intelligence we should also invest in cybersecurity.
And people should stop using windows pc when dealing with bitcoins i know their security has improved with the windows 10 but its still not safe to use when dealing with bitcoin.
Great. Talking about technology. Technology has really help the world in many aspect that can't not be mentioned. Technology at home, at school, at office or at working place and many more to mentioned of. And day by day, we are grateful of technology but also when we are talking about technology, internet should not also be left out. Internet have really impact lives also.
I honestly wonder about this since I started joining Steemit and be a crypto enthusiast. so thanks to you for helping me much enlightened. I've been into Bitcoins recently and so far enjoying everything that is goin' on. and we'll yeah, this topic really is one of the major concerns I still have at the moment. but so far I'm glad of being on it. :-)
Cloudbric's initiative to create such a powerful cybersecurity ecosystem which can better itself every moment is really beautiful as theirs on the net have many tricks up their sleeve. The software is also rewarding which sounds really good. The software is free to use is something which I am still not able to digest. Sounds like an excellent project.
Me parece estupendo tu articulo, con el internet hemos logrado mucho, pero así como avanzamos a una velocidad tan rápida, deberíamos también avanzar y preocuparnos en torno a nuestra seguridad, ya que la tecnología es un alma de doble filo, y en un futuro posible podría tener un giro drástico todo lo que conocemos.
hi. @hatu.
The subject is very interesting. If we refuse to see that the big corporations and transnationals are only interested in the business and not the security of all of us.
The most fascinating thing about technology is that we all do not know what's behind the corner. What's going to be discovered next? Where will technology bring humanity?
I only disagree with one part:
We could reach a point where every single person will be on this global network
I think we will reach opposite point. Where only very few will be part of this global network but majority of population will be excluded.
Just the way today such a huge population of people across the globe is excluded from recent technological and economical advancements.
Indeed cyber security is an emerging market. Sometimes Im wondering if it would not be more profitable to put more interest into learning about cyber security instead of being influencer. I can see demand for professionals growing very fast.
I feel the internet penetration is rising at such a positive rate that only those who voluntarily do not want to be a part of the web would be excluded. But I'd love to hear more on your view; why do you think people will be excluded?
On a side note, cybersecurity would be the winner against being an influencer ANY day! It's in extreme demand and is a highly value-added service offering.
Artificial intelligence is a best way to secure the anything so now onwards artificial intelligence everywhere and also I prefer used in also Bitcoin safety all the best to do steemit.
So what is the challenge in keeping one master password safe? I dont see the point using AI for this. (if it is not installed on my home Server or open source).
This is not about a single master password; it's about pursuing the security of the entire web. It also goes beyond hacking a wallet and encompasses security against scams.
Wow what an article sir, probably the beginning of a new era. Excellent project to work on. You have focused on the solution to the primary and the most important problem not only for steem , neither only about cryptos but it can change the world of internet. on successful completion of this project it can be expected that the world of internet to be more secure, fair and a better place to deal with. The crypto field will gain lot more confidence and faith and institution and individuals will be dealing with ease and happiness in a completely risk free environment. What a great idea and in this article all your project summary has been put perfectly in a analytical way. I pray for a massive success for your thought. all the very best from the core of my heart to you and all the crypto believers. Thank you...
I admit it was my fear, to trust anything about the Internet. especially when personal information is being disclosed. however, I thought of no other way to explore more of what this Internet can bring in this generation. so now I am enjoying the liberty of promoting, investing, and earning over the internet. just being very, very careful with the transaction that I am doing. and thanks to this post, I learn more so I can protect and secure what I have. good job!!
my son thiago isaac is a very big blessing at the moment that God gave it to me ... my prince was born on April 12, 2018. born at 32 weeks. (premature) 8 months.
my son was born healthy and beautiful .. but when he was 4 and a half months the cardiologist tells me that my son has (tetralogy of fallot) are 4 problems of heart disease and at the time I have to operate. I trust in God. He will heal me or rather I will be healthy. Every day and I will take it to the office. I will upload a picture and go counting the story of my son ... he is a very smiling and funny child is a prince ..
I enter this social network to share the story of how God heals and cares for my son. and also of this disease. I would like you to help me with getting a MONEY in order to help my son. I hope to have help from this page. God take care of it.
That’s interesting
Thank you :)

I'm sorry to hear that, it is such a pain staking thing to live through. I lost 4.5 btc.
I am shocked the hack happened so swiftly!
It was very fast indeed but i was hacked by a botnet so the process of hacking goes automatically. I made the stupid mistake of using the same password for multiple things. Because i later found out that my email got hacked a few years earlier. That's probably how the botnet got my password.
You can see here if your email got hacked : https://haveibeenpwned.com/
wow
We all certainly need to be cautious. Cybersecurity needs magnitudes of improvement.
tokens/ coins won't matter once the robots take over and slaughter us all.
AI isn't necessarily the abomination of mankind.
It is already helping us in many ways, and could secure our wealth and help advance our medical facilities (even).
The internet will surely be one of the greatest technological achievements we look back at first and say "that's when it all started"!
Absolutely!
But there's a dire need to make it more secure, especially for those who are the most recent members of the web.
I agree.
In general, internet security is multi-dimensional, in that it includes at least three layers:
Out of the three, only the third is 100% in the user's control.
I feel the second point is another growing concern, and it will remain a key challenge to address that issue.
Yeah exactly but people are aware how to use correctly ... Whats your thinking
Given the volume of dollars lost through online scams, I'd disagree.
Given the volume
Of dollars lost through online
Scams, I'd disagree.

Hi that´s a good question - I do not have any coins yet, so mine are secure for now :)
The goal is to keep all crypto/data safe--STEEM inclusive :)
great

oh yeah? will check on this Cloudbric then!
can you give me upvote to my post then i will do the same
Opino lo mismo :)
okay, done!
You've made the Steemit Minute for today! Congrats!
Check out the Video Here: https://steemit.com/news/@reseller/vhf7fn7p
@hatu - This is very good technology and marriage of Blockchain with AI for common goods with the help of common citizens. I love it. Would use when come out.
And with that, you'd also help make the web secure on an aggregate level.
Such a great article and hammers down the points in cybercrime. This is my fear too..
A fear mutually present in the Crypto community.
yes my account is secure :)
We can pursue security beyond this!
I suppose there's more than one type of moon :D
can you give me upvote to my post then i will do the same
No
Thank you for handling it on my behalf.
Anytime! 🤗

Sad to hear so, but it's an oddly common occurrence. A part of the pursuit of security would be to ensure that scammers' addresses are blacklisted.
hi @davidanderson
I didnt see you publishing anything in quite some time. Aren't you a "crypto believer" any more? Or perhaps you gaved up on steemit?
Cheers
Piotr
Perhaps he doesn't have enough RC (joke intended against HF20)
Thanks for your vision in Securing Steem Coins. Our hard-earned invested coins is now secured.
It's a team effort.
internet security is the major fear of the fastest growing technology. however, it shouldn't be the reason to keep us from trying new things that technology has to offer, like Bitcoins for instance. of course, it is necessary to study well, read and research more before you get yourself engaged to this cryptocurrency. it is growing, we cannot deny the fact because many took risks, study, and continuously learning that's why our community grows. more of this post please so everybody will be more enlighten!
Well said!
Security concerns need to be tackled so people may have the peace of mind to pursue all that technology has to offer.
Yes, totally agree with you, man! Security = Peace of Mind
You know apart from using artificial intelligence we should also invest in cybersecurity.
And people should stop using windows pc when dealing with bitcoins i know their security has improved with the windows 10 but its still not safe to use when dealing with bitcoin.
People should have the freedom of choice to choose their preferred OS.
Hopefully, we can work together and use Cloudbric to make the web safer.
Great. Talking about technology. Technology has really help the world in many aspect that can't not be mentioned. Technology at home, at school, at office or at working place and many more to mentioned of.

Internet's the primary catalyst behind this growth; we play a role in keeping it secure.

Security is a major concern for everyone in the Crypto space.
Cloudbric aims to address this matter.
Yeah, right? Hope Cloudbric can help secure our hard-earned yet high-risk Crypto investment.
Cloudbric's initiative to create such a powerful cybersecurity ecosystem which can better itself every moment is really beautiful as theirs on the net have many tricks up their sleeve. The software is also rewarding which sounds really good. The software is free to use is something which I am still not able to digest. Sounds like an excellent project.
Well noted.
what is Microsoft?

You articulated the problem in a perfect response. We really do face a double-edged sword.
AI-powered solutions are the boon we seek.
hi. @hatu.
The subject is very interesting. If we refuse to see that the big corporations and transnationals are only interested in the business and not the security of all of us.
Exactly. Our security is our own business. No one has a greater stake in it than we ourselves!
Interesting and easy read @hatu
The most fascinating thing about technology is that we all do not know what's behind the corner. What's going to be discovered next? Where will technology bring humanity?

Hi @hatu
I think majority of population will be excluded from all this technology. But I may be wrong. Time will tell :)
Safe from everything but user error. Good luck solving that problem though.
We will all play a play in solving the problem.
I like the idea of offline storages
Even hot wallets could be secured if enough threat data is fed to VISION.
can you give me upvote to my post then i will do the same
If you never use your owner key, and keep it stored away safely. Then yes ones STEEM are perfectly safe.
It goes beyond securing the key.
Does it though?
You made an impressive investment in this post.
I haven’t seen this many votes or a reward this high. I am impressed.
@shortsegments
Prevention is better than cure. So I read this article very carefully.✍️✍️✍️
Thanks for informative and useful post @hatu
☺️☺️☺️🙂🙂☺️☺️☺️☺️🙂
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Securing crypto is one of our top priority crypto holders! We should identify legit and safe wallets and exchanges!
Yes, that's the type of data that will allow VISION to prosper.
This is good news for all to keep all crypto/data safe. Great concept!
It certainly is!
Artificial intelligence is a best way to secure the anything so now onwards artificial intelligence everywhere and also I prefer used in also Bitcoin safety all the best to do steemit.
AI is undoubtedly one of the most important technologies of tomorrow.
can you give me upvote to my post then i will do the same
So what is the challenge in keeping one master password safe? I dont see the point using AI for this. (if it is not installed on my home Server or open source).

Behind Technology's success is the development of Internet . We have a key role to play in keeping it secure. Thanks for this project.
Proper assertion.
We have the opportunity to secure it.
Es muy molesto que un hacker te robe la cuenta y te quedes sin nada ):
Absolutely. Everyone would agree to this.

That's a very positive attitude :)
Yes, the web can help many access a great deal of wealth and that's only more reason to secure it.
Thanks, @hatu! Agree! Let us find more ways of securing what we have and what more can we acquire over the web.
MD5 or Sha256? Which is better for encryption?
@cryptobywak
Each has its pros.
Thanks for sharing this information.
You're welcome.
Nice article dear.Thanks for sharing
Glad to hear so.

my opinion is that we need more decentralization services
Yes, we can and should play a role in matters that affect us.
