LUCT CyberSquad: A Journey of Growth and Commitment

When we first came together as LUCT CyberSquad, we had a vision—a vision to empower young minds in the cybersecurity industry and create a community that drives change. At the start, we had nothing but passion and determination. No uniforms, no recognition—just a group of students ready to take on the challenge. But we believed in our mission, and we pushed forward.

Through training, outreach, and teamwork, we have grown. Today, we stand stronger, more united, and more equipped than ever before. The transformation is clear—not just in our knowledge and skills, but in our identity. Our uniforms symbolize the journey we’ve taken, the challenges we’ve overcome, and the commitment we uphold.

This is only the beginning. As we continue to build, learn, and lead, we prove that cybersecurity is not just for the experienced—it’s for those willing to grow.

Let Young Minds Do It!

Common types of Cyber Threats
‐-------------------------------------

☠️ Credential Phishing
----------------------
Credential phishing is a type of cyber attack where attackers masquerade as legitimate entities to trick individuals into divulging sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, or financial data.

Solution:
🔒Implement email filtering and anti-phishing technologies to detect and block phishing emails before they reach users' inboxes, reducing the likelihood of successful credential theft.
🔒Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for accessing sensitive accounts or systems to add an extra layer of security and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access even if credentials are compromised.

💀Ransomware
----------------------
Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts files or locks users out of their systems, demanding payment (usually in cryptocurrency) for decryption or restoration of access.

Solution:
🔒Regularly update software and systems to patch known vulnerabilities.
🔒Educate employees about phishing tactics and encourage cautious online behavior.
🔒Maintain robust backup systems to restore data without paying ransom.

🌐Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks
---------------
DDoS attacks overwhelm a targeted system or network with a flood of traffic, disrupting normal operation and causing downtime. Attackers utilize botnets or other means to generate massive amounts of traffic, exhausting the target's resources.

Solution:
🔒Employ DDoS mitigation services or hardware appliances to filter malicious traffic.
🔒Configure network infrastructure to handle sudden spikes in traffic.
🔒Implement rate limiting and access controls to prevent abuse.

👽Malware
-------------------
Malware encompasses various types of malicious software designed to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to computer systems or networks. Malware can be introduced through infected files, malicious websites, or vulnerabilities in software or os
