Cybersecurity Alert Ahead of Liberation Day… Enhanced Security Needed for Companies and Users
Concerns are growing that hacking attacks targeting domestic companies and institutions may increase around major national holidays, such as Liberation Day. Given that cyberattacks have frequently occurred in conjunction with significant anniversaries in the past, security experts are urging extra caution.
In particular, with the recent rise of NFT projects utilizing popular intellectual property (IP), such as Netmarble's blockchain ecosystem 'MARBLEX,' there is a raised possibility of becoming a target for cybercrimes aimed at users' personal information or assets. Hackers tend to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in services with large user bases.
To prevent such attacks, experts emphasize that companies should constantly monitor their security systems, and users must also be careful not to click on suspicious links or emails. When using blockchain or financial services, it is especially important to change passwords periodically and set up two-factor authentication.
While national holidays are a time for everyone to enjoy, the risks in cyberspace can actually be higher. It is a time when both companies and users need to raise their security awareness to protect valuable information and strive to create a safe digital environment.
