3. What is Cyber Security?
The media has popularised the term "cyber security" to refer to the process of
protecting against various types of cybercrime, ranging from identity theft to global
digital firearms. These descriptions are accurate, but they do not capture the full scope
of cyber security for those without a computer science degree or experience in the
digital economy.
Cybersecurity is the process of protecting devices and services connected to the
internet from unauthorised attacks by hackers, spammers, and cybercriminals.
Companies utilize this strategy to protect themselves against scams, attacks involving
ransomware, identity theft, data breaches, and financial losses.
Nowadays, you'll notice that technology has become more important than ever before.
