CYBER SECURITY

Cyber Security is the practice of protecting computer systems, networks, data, and digital devices from attack, hacking, or unauthorized access.

The Core Principles of Cyber Security (The CIA Triad)
    1.    Confidentiality: Preventing sensitive information from being disclosed or accessed by unauthorized parties.
    2.    Integrity: Ensuring that data is not tampered with or destroyed without authorization.
    3.    Availability: Guaranteeing that systems and data are accessible and usable when needed by authorized users.

Key Cyber Security Measures
    •    Firewall Implementation: Using firewalls to filter incoming and outgoing network traffic.
    •    Antivirus/EDR Usage: Employing Antivirus software or Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions to detect and neutralize malware.
    •    Data Encryption: Encrypting data to prevent unauthorized parties from reading it.
    •    Data Backup: Performing regular backups to prevent data loss.
    •    Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Using MFA to protect user accounts from being compromised by hackers.
