Appropriate measures should be taken to limit the risk from ransomware. Illustration. With this form of attack, hackers often use tricks to fake websites, extract data of agencies and organizations and demand ransom. Cybercriminals carry out cyberattacks according to a concise strategy that is applicable to many industries. An analysis of recent experts shows that, in 2020 alone, the amount of damage related to ransomware attacks has reached billions of dollars. More dangerously, this behavior also targets the government’s information technology systems, causing serious impact. To protect critical data from attacks, government IT systems need to ensure external layers of security, while having the added responsibility of maintaining the infrastructure if an intrusion occurs. offense. According to studies, despite the development and expansion of the scope, the attacker’s methods still have similarities. Most hackers will illegally exploit the lowest-level vulnerabilities first, through some common and easy-to-implement method. Therefore, experts recommend to prevent ransomware from this initial step through some of the following methods. 1. Secure remote access Remote access is a familiar method often used by attackers, especially through unpatched vulnerabilities of information systems. Accordingly, hackers are constantly scanning the internet, looking for ways to exploit these vulnerabilities to perform attacks. To combat vulnerability scanning, organizations should prioritize patching vulnerabilities first. Along with that, to protect the system, experts recommend that organizations identify remote access systems to their systems by looking up IP addresses. If an attack is suspected, users should block public access to remote desktop protocol services (iRemoteDesktop – RDP), a secure shell that encrypts transmission data (Secure Socket Shell – SSH) ) and file transfer protocol (File Transfer Protocol – FTP). Agencies and organizations need to ensure that systems for remote access such as firewalls, VPN gateways, and email gateways are regularly patched, perform scanning for security holes, and deploy multi-factor authentication. Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for accounts that are authorized for remote access. Hackers take advantage of security holes to attack the network. Illustration. 2. Email security Many ransomware incidents can start with an email sent to a user. This attack method is gradually becoming popular for hackers to perform blackmail. Experts say it’s safer to prevent unsolicited emails in the first place. The email security system acts as a “fence” to protect the strange messages from the internet and private mailboxes in the intranet system. To avoid email threats, users need to make sure email messages are scanned through a filtering system, and check attachments and links for advanced threats. In addition, account holders should audit or block password-protected documents as hackers often use this method to bypass email data scanning. 3. Keep data backups safe The third most common method for ransomware is to identify the target, encrypt the data, and then completely delete the backups. In addition to the data on the network and the data being used directly, the hacker will search all backups and encrypt them, disabling the data to increase the possibility of ransom from the victim. The victim then has a high probability of paying to buy back these encrypted data. Therefore, individuals, agencies and organizations should have backup plans to ensure the safety of all data. 4. Implement a 3-2-1 . Backup Strategy Without the right protections, backups, and archiving, concurrent copies on the same network are vulnerable to hackers. To avoid network-wide attacks, experts have come up with a safe backup measure for users’ data systems. For all important files, users should store 3 copies, including 1 primary backup for daily use and 2 backup copies. In it, the files will be saved on 2 different media environments to reduce the possibility of mass attacks. These copies must be in place so that data can be accessed and restored easily and quickly in the event of a failure. At the same time, users should save 1 copy outside the work network or home network, in case of force majeure situations due to natural disasters, unexpected disasters.

Using a low-quality electric fan contains many risks. Illustration Ms. L (Hai Ba Trung, Hanoi) was urgent, in order to prevent power failure, she chose to buy a rechargeable fan on the online market for 750,000 VND but only used it twice and it broke.

According to electrical experts, if you can find a fan with clear origin and strict quality control, the risk of fire and explosion is very low, unless used in the wrong way. However, with cheap products, widely sold, the risk of poor quality electric fans, prone to fire and explosion is very high. Speaking of the risk of using low-quality rechargeable fans, refrigeration repair experts added, there are many cases of buying a rechargeable fan to use for a short time and then not charging or the indicator light is full. But after only a few minutes, it’s all due to buying a poor-quality fan and improperly charging the battery. Besides, in order to increase product prices and deceive buyers, these products are also ordered by stores with Vietnamese packaging from China and sold at many times higher prices. To ensure the most effective and durable use of electric fans, consumers when choosing to buy in addition to choosing large and reputable electronics stores and supermarkets must also pay attention to product brands and brands, see battery capacity. Do not choose a type of electric fan with too many functions because when used it will not achieve the desired effect. (According to Viet Q)

Illustration. https://kinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn The Munich-based Ifo Institute said: The German Automotive Industry Association has presented some potential challenges ahead, as the government attempts to eliminate diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles instead. for vehicles with low and zero emissions. In a statement released with the report, the research agency said: “It is estimated that about 75,000 German auto manufacturing workers will retire by the middle of this decade. But if by 2025, production of cars powered by internal combustion engines decreases to a predictable level under current emissions regulations, the shift to electric motors will have little impact. 178,000 employees ”. Ifo explains: the group that will be unemployed includes “workers producing product groups directly or indirectly dependent on internal combustion engines, with 137,000 of them working directly in the automotive industry” . “The transition to electric automation is a huge challenge, especially for automotive suppliers where mid-sized companies dominate,” said Ifo Chairman Clemens Fuest. “It is important to maintain skilled jobs in the manufacturing of internal combustion engines and electric vehicles without altering the structure,” he said. A real major transformation seems to be ahead. The German federal government has set a target of 7 to 10 million electric cars registered in the country by the end of the decade. In January, the German road traffic authority Reuters said: Battery-powered car sales were more than 194,000 vehicles by 2020, which had tripled over the same period last year. The executive branch of the EU, the European Commission wants to have at least 30 million zero-emission cars on the road by 2030 as part of the “Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy”. About 3 million new electric cars were registered last year, a record number and up 41% from 2019, according to the International Energy Agency. Oliver Falck, Director of the Ifo Center for New Industries and Technologies, sought to emphasize systemic change that has been and is taking place. “The evolution in production figures has shown us that very different parts are needed for electric cars rather than the internal combustion engines,” he said, noting that “this shift has yet to be reflected in the similar level in number of employees ”. https://kinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

Economic Observer Network reporter Ren Xiaoning, intern Lu Shuo At the highest point of $65,000 on the Bitcoin site, a platform for trading Bitcoin in the United States was listed on the Nasdaq. On April 14, US Eastern time, Coinbase went public. It is the first bitcoin exchange with a formal license in the United States and the first listed cryptocurrency company. For the currency circle, last night was an important milestone moment. Terence, the business leader of Binance Greater China, told the Economic Observer that the listing of Coinbase is a recognition from the mainstream world for the industry. It also provides experience for companies in the crypto asset industry or the blockchain industry to prove transactions. The stock can also be listed. Big ups and downs on the first day of listing After the opening on April 14th, Eastern time, the market value of Coinbase rose sharply and broke through 110 billion U.S. dollars, and then quickly shrank. A few hours later, it plunged by nearly 30%, and its market value at the close was 61 billion U.S. dollars. 2.4 times the market value, net worth has surpassed traditional financial institutions. Founded in 2012, Coinbase is the largest Bitcoin and other digital currency trading platform in the United States. Last year, Coinbase’s revenue was US$1.277 billion, an increase of 140% over 2019; net profit in 2020 was US$322.3 million, an increase of 960% over 2019. Coinbase is a compliant exchange in the United States. It is the first licensed bitcoin exchange in the United States. It has digital currency trading licenses (MSB) in many states in the United States, as well as digital currency licenses from the central banks of the United Kingdom and Ireland. Coinbase provides trading services for Bitcoin and other digital currencies. The current digital currency environment is getting better. Since the beginning of this year, Bitcoin has experienced a round of skyrocketing market, from 30,000 US dollars at the beginning of the year to 65,000 US dollars today.TeslaThe founder Musk is an optimist for digital currency, and Tesla can already use Bitcoin to pay.Morgan Stanley,Goldman Sachs,Black stoneAs companies invest in Bitcoin as a store of value, California real estate company Caruso also announced that it will accept Bitcoin as a rent payment. The coexistence of bubbles and opportunities Despite the gratifying gains, the outside world has always had doubts about Coinbase. The first thing to bear the brunt is whether there is a bubble in its high market value. Investment research company New Constructs stated that the overall valuation of cryptocurrency platforms is too high. As the market matures and more competitors join, Coinbase’s high profits will inevitably be eaten away. The ridiculous valuation of $100 billion will only make They cannot realize the expected profit. As a platform party, Coinbase’s revenue mainly comes from commissions charged when providing online transactions of encrypted assets, and fees ranging from 0.5% to 0.04% are charged based on the transaction volume. This part accounts for up to 86% of revenue. In 2020, Coinbase has approximately 2.8 million monthly active users, an increase of 180% from the end of 2019. The total crypto transaction volume in 2020 is US$193.09 billion, an increase of 141.7% from 2019. Compared with similar digital currency exchanges, Coinbase’s commission fees are relatively high. How to continue to grow in the environment of low-price competition from opponents is a problem that Coinbase needs to face. In addition, cryptocurrencies still have gray areas under the existing regulatory system. Even though Coinbase has made great efforts in legal compliance, the red lines still happen from time to time. On March 19, Coinbase and the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) reached a settlement with allegations of improper reporting of trading volume and “self-trading”, and were fined 6.5 million yuan. This incident also delayed Coinbase’s listing plan to April. Previously, Coinbase had repeatedly confronted the CFTC on suspicion of cross-trade transactions, illegal sales, and security deposits. Terence told reporters that at present, the legal provisions of US cryptocurrency exchanges in terms of operating mode and product form are still in the groping stage. In the future, the regulatory provisions and related policies of the SEC and CFTC may be adjusted and become more stringent at any time. Coinbase listed 27 key points on volatility risk in the prospectus, including changes in investor confidence, negative publicity on social media, regulatory issues, and technical issues. However, in any case, the listing of Coinbase is a big step for the cryptocurrency industry. Terence said that the listing of Coinbase will arouse more attention to cryptocurrencies in the traditional financial sector, and will also help increase user trust in exchanges, provide endorsements to the crypto industry, and benefit the overall market.

Attractive virtual money market

After many sessions close to the old peak, Bitcoin has penetrated the threshold of 62,000 USD and then 63,000 USD / Bitcoin on the evening of April 13. Currently, Bitcoin price is fluctuating around 63,500 USD / Bitcoin, sometimes close to 64,000 USD / Bitcoin. Thus, in the past 1 year, the price of Bitcoin has increased about 9 times, a level of return far exceeding all traditional investment channels such as stocks or gold.

As Wall Street becomes more and more open to cryptocurrencies, Coinbase’s direct listing is attracting great investor interest, according to financial experts. Especially on April 14, Coinbase officially became a public company on the Nasdaq. This is the first major crypto company to list, considered a major turning point for the digital market as well as a test of the level of investor interest in startups. (startup) differs in this area.

Not only Bitcoin, but also many cryptocurrencies issued by exchanges also increased in price ahead of the Coinbase listing. Typically, Binance Coin increased 23% in the first day of the week; Houbi Token and KuCoin Token both went up.

Before the excitement of virtual money, the virtual money market, also known as electronic money in Vietnam, became active again when investors realized that this currency had promising potential. As can be seen, the appearance of Pi, a new cryptocurrency and other virtual currency units in early 2021 has attracted a large number of new investors to join.

In Vietnam, virtual money in general and currencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin … in particular are still not recognized and are not legal means of payment. The issuance, supply and use of virtual currency are prohibited acts and will be sanctioned according to the Government’s Decree No. 96/2014 / ND-CP on sanctioning of administrative violations in the monetary and banking sector. Criminal Code 2015 (amended and supplemented). Previously, the State Bank of Vietnam had warned many times that investing in virtual money caused great risks to investors.

Unpredictable risks

According to market research Statista, Vietnam has the 2nd highest cryptocurrency usage rate in the world, after Nigeria. With millions of dollars traded every month, crypto exchanges are a good prey for cybercriminals.

The technology security companies said that fraudulent acts on electronic transactions are very diverse and sophisticated, such as collecting information from developers and investors; attack with malware, phishing, malicious code, fake notification, navigate to fake website, DDoS … and steal electronic wallet security key.

The famous criminal group in the world that focuses on cryptocurrencies today, such as Lazarus, BlueNoroff (a member of the Lazarus family that specializes in attacking the financial sector) is also said to be carrying out related attacks. to cryptocurrencies in Southeast Asia under the name SnatchCrypto.

The vibrant virtual money market attracts many Vietnamese investors to rejoin (illustrations).

Not only that, the risk of losing money also comes from virtual currency exchanges and can be collapsed at any time. Commenting on this type of investment, Lawyer Pham Duy Khuong, CEO of ASL Law Firm, said that although he is always warned about potential risks, what makes virtual money still attractive to investors. it is too big a profit. But the downside of the coin’s development has actually created a series of risks of “junk” virtual money investment channels appearing more and more.

Worryingly, virtual money “trash” tends to increase sharply and is “sucking blood” of investors. Specifically, with an attractive offer of great profits from virtual currency exchanges, investors massively poured money into “junk” virtual currency floors and then after a short time, the floor suddenly collapsed, when Then new investors fall back to be deceived. More sophisticated, when many cryptocurrency exchanges have “lured” investors to buy real virtual money, then use these virtual currencies to buy back virtual money “trash” “In order to make high profits and then the investors lose all their investment money.

However, according to the experts, it is very difficult to sanction fraud on these type of exchange owners. Because, if investors contribute with real money to the property, it can also be sanctioned, but if you contribute virtual money – a currency that is not an asset or a means of payment, there is no legal status, so it is not. there are grounds for punishment

Chris Connell, Managing Director of Kaspersky Asia Pacific said: “The development of cryptocurrencies is an integral part of digital transformation in the region and in Vietnam. Therefore, we encourage individuals accessing these financial technologies to have a basic knowledge of security measures to keep their cryptocurrencies safe.

Specifically, before investing, learn about cryptocurrency exchanges. These platforms provide the means for buying and selling virtual currency units as there are more than 500 exchanges. Do research, read feedback and talk to experienced investors before going any further.

After buying cryptocurrencies, investors need to know how to choose a digital wallet to keep. Because there are different types of wallets, each has different benefits, technical requirements and security. Therefore, players should research hosting options before investing.

However, according to the warning of financial expert – securities Phan Dung Khanh, Investment Advisory Director of Maybank Kim Eng Securities, do not put all your capital in Bitcoin just because it is the only name you know. There are thousands of options and it’s best to divide your investments by a few different units of money. Even so, cryptocurrencies are a volatile market, so if their investment ability or mental health cannot withstand the volatility, cryptocurrencies may not be a wise investment.

In particular, always uphold security when trading virtual money. Ideally, home trading is safer than using a public network, but you need proper security. For starters, it’s a good idea to change your router’s default password because the root password is usually the same for all routers of the same model, making your Wi-fi vulnerable to attack. In any case, it is best to do all electronic transactions over an encrypted VPN channel, which will add an extra layer of security.
