Do we need Cyber Security ?

The internet has made the world smaller in many ways but it has also opened us up to influences that have never before been so varied and so challenging. As fast as security grew, the hacking world grew faster. There are two ways of looking at the issue of cyber security. One is that the companies that provide cloud computing do that and only that so these companies will be extremely well secured with the latest in cutting edge encryption technology.

WHAT IS CYBER SECURITY ?

Its being protected by internet-connected systems, including hardware, software and data, from cyber attacks. In a computing context, security comprises cyber security and physical security both are used by enterprises to safe against unauthorized access to data center and other computerized systems. The security, which is designed to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data, is a subset of cyber security.

WHO ARE CYBER CRIMINALS ?

It involves such activities as child printed sexual organs or activity; credit card fraud; cyber stalking; defaming another online; gaining unauthorized access to computer systems; ignoring copyright, software licensing and trademark safe to protect; overriding encryption to make illegal copies; software piracy and stealing another's identity to perform criminal acts. Cybercriminals are those who conduct such acts. They can be categorized into three groups that reflect their motivation.

HOW TO MAINTAIN EFFECTIVE CYBER SECURITY ?

Historically, organizations and governments have taken a reactive, “point product” approach to combating cyber threats, produce something together individual security technologies –one on top of another to safe their networks and the valuable data within them. Not only is this method expensive and complex, but news of damaging cyber breaches continues to dominate headlines, rendering this method ineffective. In fact, given the area of group of people of data breaches, the topic of cyber security has launched to the top of the priority list for boards of directors, which they seeked as far as less risky way. Instead, organizations can consider a natively integrated, automated Next-Generation Security Platform that is specifically designed to provide consistent, prevention-based protection –on the endpoint, in the data center, on the network, in public and private clouds, and across Saabs environments. By focusing on prevention, organizations can prevent cyber threats from impacting the network in the first place, and less overall cyber security risk to a manageable degree.

WHAT CYBER SECURITY CAN PREVENT ?

The use of cyber security can help prevent cyber-attacks, data breaches and identity theft and can aid in risk management. When an organization has a strong sense of network security and an effective incident response plan, it is better able to prevent and serious of these attacks. For example, end user protection defends information and guards against loss or theft while also scanning computers for malicious code.

CONCLUSION

Depending on their (potential) severity, however, disruptive incidents in the future will continue to fuel the military discourse, and with it fears of strategic cyber-war. Certainly, thinking about (and planning for) worst-case scenarios is a legitimate task of the national security apparatus. However, for the favour of more plausible and more likely problems they should not to get more attention Therefore, there is no way to study the „actual‟ level of cyber-risk in any sound way because it only exists in and through the representations of various actors in the political domain.
