CyberSecurity

Cybersecurity refers to our practice of protecting computers, networks, programs, and data from unauthorized access, attacks, damage, or theft. It involves a set of technologies, processes, and practices designed to safeguard digital systems and sensitive information from cyber threats, such as hacking, malware, phishing, and ransomware.

​

The goal of cybersecurity is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and systems, commonly referred to as the CIA Triad:

​

Confidentiality: Ensuring that information is only accessible to those who have authorized access.
Integrity: Protecting data from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized users.
Availability: Ensuring that information and systems are accessible and functional when needed by authorized users.

​

Cybersecurity encompasses various domains, including:

​

Network Security:

​

Protecting networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and breaches.

Application Security:

Securing software and applications to prevent exploitation by attackers.

Information Security:

​

Safeguarding data from unauthorized access or disclosure.

Endpoint Security:

 

Securing devices like computers, smartphones, and tablets that connect to a network.

Identity and Access Management (IAM):

 

Controlling user access and identities to ensure that only authorized individuals can access sensitive resources.

Incident Response:

 

Developing plans and procedures for identifying, responding to, and recovering from security incidents.

As technology continues to advance, cybersecurity becomes increasingly important to protect both individuals and organizations from a growing range of cyber threats.
