Short Answer

a) an information threat:

  • any situation or occurrence that could have a negative influence on an IS through unauthorized access, data deletion, disclosure, alteration, and/or denial of service.
  • Although they are common, viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and spam are only the tip of the iceberg. Privilege escalation, spyware, adware, rootkits, botnets, and logic bombs are a few additional frequent information security risks.

b) firewall and it's use:

  • A firewall is a security tool that can be either software or hardware-based on a computer.
  • By serving as a bridge between your internal network and outside traffic, it can aid in network protection. It keeps track of attempts to access your operating system and stops unwelcome traffic from unknown sources.
  • An organization's previously set security policies are used to monitor and filter incoming and outgoing network traffic through a firewall, a network security device. A firewall is essentially the barrier that stands between a private internal network and the open Internet at its most basic level.

c) Cyber law:

  • Cyber law, or simply cyberlaw, is a term used to describe the legal concerns associated with the use of communications technology, particularly "cyberspace," or the Internet.
  • Cyber laws were created to stop financial crimes committed online, including credit card fraud and identity theft. Any form of identity theft may result in confederate or state criminal charges for the offender.
