Background - What is cyber security?

Cybersecurity refers to the protection of systems, networks, or programs against digital attacks. These cyberattacks aim to access, change, or destroy sensitive information, extort money from users and interrupt normal business processes. Effective cybersecurity measures are difficult to implement today, as there are more devices than users and attackers are getting more creative.

An effective cybersecurity strategy has multiple layers of protection that cover all computers, networks and data. To be effective against cyber attacks, people, processes, technology and people must work together in an organization. A unified Threat Management system automates integrations between select Cisco Security products. It also accelerates key security operations functions, such as detection, investigation and remediation.

Basic data security principles must be understood and followed by users. This includes choosing strong passwords and being cautious about attachments in emails. Technology is vital to give individuals and organizations the security tools they need to defend themselves against cyber attacks. Endpoint devices such as computers, smart devices and routers, networks, and the cloud must all be protected. Next-generation firewalls, DNS filtering and malware protection are some of the common technologies used to protect these entities.

Advanced cyber defense programs are a benefit to everyone in today's connected world. A cybersecurity attack can lead to everything: identity theft, extortion attempts and the loss of personal data such as family photos. Everybody relies on vital infrastructure such as hospitals, power plants, and financial services companies. These and other institutions are essential for maintaining a functioning society.
