Why Cybersecurity is Important
Data Protection: Safeguards sensitive information like personal data, financial details, and proprietary business information.
Prevents Financial Loss: Cyberattacks can cost businesses millions in ransom payments, legal fees, and loss of reputation.
Compliance and Regulations: Many industries are required by law to follow data protection standards (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA).
Key Components of Cybersecurity
Network Security:Protects internal networks from intrusions by securing both hardware and software technologies.
Application Security: Focuses on keeping software and devices free of threats (e.g., secure coding, code reviews).
Endpoint Security: Protects endpoints like computers, mobile devices, and tablets from malicious activity.
Common Cyber Threats
Malware: Includes viruses, worms, spyware, and ransomware that damage or steal data.
Phishing:Fraudulent attempts (often through email) to steal sensitive information by impersonating trustworthy entities.
Man-in-the-Middle Attacks (MitM): When attackers secretly intercept communication between two parties.
Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks: Flood a network or server with traffic to disrupt service.
Cybersecurity Best Practices
Use Strong, Unique Passwords: Combine upper/lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Use password managers.
Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Adds an extra layer of security beyond just usernames and passwords.
Regular Software Updates: Patches vulnerabilities that attackers may exploit.
Data Encryption: Encrypt data during transmission and while stored to prevent unauthorized access.
