Cybersecurity is the defense against online threats, illegal access, theft, and damage to computer networks, systems, and data. Information security is the protection of the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of information through a variety of techniques and technologies. Firewalls, encryption, anti-malware programs, and intrusion detection systems are important parts. In order to prevent breaches, cybersecurity also include risk management techniques including frequent system updates, security audits, and personnel training. Strong cybersecurity measures are necessary to guard against emerging threats like ransomware, phishing, and other harmful activities because of the growing dependence on digital infrastructure.
