What Is Cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity is the collection of measures and practices taken to protect computers, networks, programs, or systems from cyberattacks. Such attacks can take the form of malware, denial of service, theft of data, unauthorized access, or tampering of data, and any number of other malicious actions. The Congressional Research Service explains that in addition to measures taken to protect systems from threats, cybersecurity may also refer to the “state or quality of being protected” from threats, or the efforts aimed at “implementing and improving” those measures. While an ever-evolving cyberthreat ecosystem transforms and molds the functions of cybersecurity, the very core of cybersecurity always involves safeguarding information and systems from harmful cyberthreats.
 
Creating a cybersecurity culture
Employees hold a lot of power when it comes to protecting an organization's data. Notifications by employees are the most common way businesses have discovered cyberattacks. This reveals that employees need to be properly trained on how to identify attacks to combat incoming threats. Developing a strong information security culture can also help educate individuals on the necessary steps they need to take to keep their personal and work-related devices secure. They can become the first line of defense and not the organization's weakest link.
 
Building security into the vision and values of the company is an important first step to getting employees on board. Businesses must also deploy technologies that support rather than inconvenience employees. This will motivate them to make smarter decisions regarding computer and cyber safety instead of searching for easy, but potentially harmful, work-arounds.
 
Integrated information security solutions that work
Cybersecurity solutions work in layers to create a strong defense posture against potential risks. Therefore, these solutions need to be able to integrate and communicate with each other to have full end-to-end visibility into the threat landscape. Historically, organizations have taken a reactive approach to combating cyberthreats by using multiple, siloed security technologies. Unfortunately, this method is expensive, complex, and ineffective in the long run. Affecting multiple devices, people, and organizations globally, it is key to have an open and proactive cybersecurity infrastructure to protect, detect, correct, and adapt to the continuing evolution of cyberattacks. In non-integrated environments, threats can find the weakest link and instantly penetrate, spreading through the rest of the system. And, because these non-integrated environments fail to have common tools, management, and policy control, finding the threat before it infects other parts of the system is also problematic.
 
Developing a strong cybersecurity framework
While cyberattackers leverage their security-penetration skills, they rely mostly on human error. Simple oversights or minor blunders made by users can cause huge repercussions if it unleashes a cyberattack that quickly spreads to other endpoints. This means that everyone, not just the IT department, needs to understand how important cybersecurity is. Typically, cyberattackers don't require sophisticated hacking skills to penetrate corporate networks. They simply need to learn how to trick employees into opening unsecure email attachments and links. Thus, employees become major targets for cybercriminals since they are postured as the gateway into an organization's network.
