Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting computers, networks, systems, and data from theft, damage, or unauthorized access. It encompasses a wide range of technologies, processes, and techniques designed to safeguard digital information and ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data. Cybersecurity measures can include the use of firewalls, encryption, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems, as well as policies and procedures aimed at mitigating risks associated with cyber threats. The field is vital for individuals, businesses, and governments, as cyber attacks can lead to significant financial loss, data breaches, and reputational damage. As technology evolves, so too do the tactics employed by cybercriminals, making ongoing vigilance and adaptation in cybersecurity practices essential.
