1. What is Cybersecurity?

   • Cybersecurity refers to the practice of protecting computer systems, networks, and data from digital threats and attacks.
   • It encompasses a wide range of practices and technologies aimed at enhancing digital security and safeguarding sensitive information.

2. Common Types of Cyber Attacks:

   • Malware: Malicious software that includes ransomware, trojans, spyware, viruses, and worms.
     • Ransomware: Encrypts data and demands payment for decryption.
     • Fileless Malware: Uses legitimate system tools for attacks.
     • Spyware: Secretly collects user data without consent.
     • Adware: Monitors online activity to display targeted ads.
     • Trojan: Disguises as legitimate software.
     • Worms: Self-replicating programs that spread across networks.

3. Other Types of Cybersecurity Measures:

   • Encryption: Protects data by converting it into a secure format.
   • Access Control: Manages user permissions and restricts unauthorized access.
   • Network Security: Secures networks through firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and monitoring.
   • Endpoint Security: Protects individual devices (e.g., computers, smartphones).
   • Identity and Access Management (IAM): Manages user identities and their access rights.
   • Database and Infrastructure Security: Safeguards databases and critical infrastructure.

Cybersecurity is essential in our interconnected digital world, preventing data breaches and ensuring privacy! 🛡️🌐
