Hacking is a serious Cyber Crime, the early computer age
little experienced cyber crime as it is rampant today. A lot of institutions
are scared of these professionals’ scammers that engage in act of penetrating
privacy of companies and individuals. It is a sad event in the society and jet
age that computer usage has left the place of beneficiary to the society and turns
into the means to victimizing the innocent citizens of the nation. The Cyber
Crime in Nigeria as Nation is alarming compare to the other nations that are
security fortified. I don’t know how to express the in burning desire to deal
with hackers.
It might have happen to some of you whereby, your personal
transaction are being shared with one criminal somewhere monitoring your
movement to track down your resources online especially your bank details. If you
have not been a victim of such, you can learn more from this article. Serious
damaging is going on online but because of negligent, the innocent citizens are
suffering the consequences. If hackers can be prosecuted and sentence to life
imprisonment as an armed robber by the court of law, I think the rate of cyber
crime will reduce in the society. The
innocent educated ones in Nigeria are duped online daily by these so called unscrupulous
hackers without human conscience: good in diverting resources from people’s
personal bank accounts.
As an ICT Accountant, recently I nearly became a victim of
hacker if not that I am already equipped to detect and fish them out through
their IP Address, In this article also I will give you step on how to detect
Hacker and report them to appropriate authorities for further prosecution. I
hate corruption and I will sacrifice everything to fight corruption as long as
my nation Nigeria is concern. If hacking continues in the society: our Banking,
communication and Government Institutional Fund is not safe because the real hackers
target the government funds.
Now how can we detect the operation of these Hackers in our
personal system and block them as well as report them to the appropriate
authorities? Take the following steps to detect a Hacker in your system through
the IP Address:
(1)
CLICK START FROM YOUR WINDOW START MENU
(2)
GO TO RUN
(3)
TYPE “COMMND”
(4)
CLICK OK
Then MS-DOS Command prompt will display with “C:\WINDOW\DESKTOP>”,
the type “NETSTAT A- you will see options. Then choose from the option the one
you want to view according to their details. Now I choose the first option
which is –a to display all connections and listening port. Now I have to type
it in “C:\WINDOW\DESKTOP>Netstat –a (this will show you all possible system
connected to your computer). Look at the foreign
IP addresses especially when you are online which the Hackers address is while
the local address is the port number in your pc which they used to have access,
if the state of the addresses is established: that means that whatever
the foreign address says is currently connected to your computer.
Now the next step is to trace this hacker through the IP
address, you do this with the software called Netlab, you can download it and
install. Then, use it to get the hackers ISP (Internet Service Provider),
report him to his ISP and also your own ISP with the details of IP Address you
generated from Netlap as well as to the appropriate authorities.
Having established the above fact, they say prevention is
better than cure, now proceed to install Firewall (you can download black Ice
defender from www.networkice.com) on
your system to filter network, protect shared files with password and run anti-Virus.
I think I am done with the tip on how to track these hackers. And I am
suggesting if there will be a strong team like EFCC to monitor Cyber Crime in
Nigeria. Thanks
