What is Cybersecurity?

Cybersecurity refers to 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, or interrupting normal processes.

As we become more connected, cyber threats grow more advanced — making it crucial for everyone, from students to CEOs, to stay alert and protected in the digital world.
