CYBERSECURITY
As information and technologies influences our lives in every aspect, you can transfer money sitting at home. Many things are developed by people through internet. You can access everything online even your confidential data through encryption. So it is necessary to protect your personal data from being stolen or misused for atrocious cyber crime. Inorder to protect your data from illegal activities ,Cyber Security has been introduced.
Nowadays everyone is familiar with the terms Cyber crime and Cybersecurity. Cyber security is nothing but misusing the personal data such as passwords, ATM pin etc by an unknown person.
Purpose and benefits of Cyber Security

This requires good vulnerability mgmt (ie. detecting and remediating weaknesses in your systems). It also requires the ability to detect threats to your environment. It’s also beneficial to collect threat intelligence from trusted 3rd parties, in order to prioritize vuln mgmt efforts and to give your threat hunters IoCs and other data to track down (ie. patrol the fence line).
You need good technology and people to do this and to run your incident response process when things occur. Automation of response efforts helps to keep the bad guys out of your OODA loop.
Good governance (ie. policies, standards, procedures, and controls) are paramount for ensuring that risks are addressed, controls are effective, and the organization remains compliant. This even drives mundane things like users rotating passwords and other hygiene-type activities that help to protect users, data, and systems. However, now we’re getting into “Information Assurance” overall, whereas cyber security typically focuses on dealing with threats and actual attacks.
Anyway, lots more to this space, but you should now have a good flavor for this.
