Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is about protecting resources/devices connected to the internet from digital attacks, data breaches, and identity theft. The cybersecurity landscape has been evolving over the past years, due to the exponential increase in the number of connected devices (Internet of things and mobile workers). Attacks are evolving, with application layer attacks on the rise, and network attacks declining. Some of the current threats include Ransomware (extorting money from users), Malware (gain unauthorized access or cause damage to a computer), Social Engineering, and Phishing.
