Implementation of an Ethical Hacking Control Focused on Phishing to Optimize Computer Security in Credinka

Resumen

One of the main problems that exists in financial agencies is phishing attacks that have unauthorized access to technological systems. For this reason, the study conducted aimed to optimize computer security at the Credinka Agency. As a result, he met with agency officials to gather information on network security vulnerabilities. In which techniques related to the Information System Security Assessment Framework (ISSAF) methodology were conducted, where Pen testing procedures will be applied, which will help to know the most effective methods to detect vulnerabilities in the Agency's computer systems. Finally, the implementation of an ethical hacking control will be carried out in order to strengthen the technological infrastructure, in this way make employees aware of the risks that can be caused by cyberattacks. It is observed that the percentage of vulnerability decreased by 82% and 74% of workers are more prepared against hacking attacks. © 2024 IEEE.
