What is Cybersecurity?

We also known Cybersecurity as >> Information Security (INFOSEC) >> Information Assurance (IA) >> System Security.

Cybersecurity is the combination of processes, practices, and technologies designed to protect networks, computers, programs, data and information from attack, damage or unauthorized access.

Or, It is a technique and practice designed to protect data; applied to digital data and stored, transmitted, in use or it is Protect Computer and networking systems from potential hackers and cyber attacks

What does cybersecurity engineers do?

1. Analyses computer networks

2. Foresee possible security issues
