Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity refers to the protection of computer systems and networks from the theft of, damage to, or misdirection of their hardware, software, or electronic data, as well as from the disruption of services they provide. The need for cybersecurity has grown because of the growing reliance on computer systems, the Internet, and wireless network standards such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, as well as the rise of 'smart' devices like smartphones, televisions, and the ever-expanding Internet of Things.
