 CYBER SECURITY:
 Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems,
networks, and programs from digital attacks. These
cyberattacks are usually aimed at accessing, changing, or
destroying sensitive information; extorting money from users
via ransomware; or interrupting normal business processes.
 Implementing effective cybersecurity measures is
particularly challenging today because there are more
devices than people, and attackers are becoming more
innovative.
