“Security is the chief enemy of mortals.”

In today’s, economy organizations are using more and more digitization for all their financial transactions and other data communication and due to this organizations are more prone to attack; thus, we need a to secure our transaction. Cyber-Security is a process to secure all our transactions and assure the privacy, confidentiality and integrity for organizations as well as personal information.
Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting critical systems and sensitive information from digital attacks. Also known as information technology (IT) security, cybersecurity measures are designed to combat threats against networked systems and applications, whether those threats originate from inside or outside of an organization.
As per the survey done by IBM in 2020, the average cost of a data breach was USD 3.86 million globally and USD 8.64 million in the United States.
A strong cybersecurity strategy has layers of protection to defend against cybercrime, including cyber-attacks that attempt to access, change, or destroy data; extort money from users or the organization; or aim to disrupt normal business operations. The Cyber Security must address the following cybersecurity issues in Critical infrastructure security, Network security, Application Security, Cloud security, Information security, End-user education, Disaster recovery/business continuity planning, Storage security, and Mobile security.
This course provides a wide variety of knowledge to enrich the students to be ready for the world of securing life.
