Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity refers to the practices, measures, and technologies designed to protect computers, networks, programs, and data from unauthorized access, damage, or attacks. It encompasses a wide range of security measures, including firewalls, antivirus software, encryption, intrusion detection systems, and policies intended to safeguard digital information and ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data. Cybersecurity aims to defend against cyber threats such as hacking, phishing, malware, and ransomware, which can compromise sensitive information and disrupt systems. Effective cybersecurity strategies involve risk assessment, security architecture, user education, and incident response planning to mitigate risks and respond to breaches.
