What is Cyber Security?

Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks, and data from digital attacks, theft, and damage. It is a critical concern

 for individuals, organizations, and governments, as the increasing reliance on technology 

and the Internet has made it easier for attackers to access and compromise sensitive information.

There are several types of threats that cybersecurity aims to protect against, including:

Malware: Malware is software that is specifically designed to harm or exploit computer systems. It includes viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and ransomware.

Hacking: Hacking refers to the unauthorized access or manipulation of computer

 systems or networks.

Phishing: Phishing is a type of online fraud that involves tricking users into revealing sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial data.

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks: A DoS attack is an attempt to make a computer resource unavailable to its intended users by overwhelming it with traffic or requests.

Man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks: A MitM attack is an attack where the attacker 

intercepts and manipulates communication between two parties without their knowledge.

To protect against these threats, cybersecurity measures can include the use of antivirus software, firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, secure password policies, 

and encryption. It is also important for individuals and organizations to be aware of these threats and to adopt safe practices when using technology and the Internet.
