Cyber security is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks. These attacks often aim to access, change, or destroy sensitive information, extort money from users, or disrupt normal business operations. Effective cyber security measures are essential to safeguard data integrity, confidentiality, and availability. One of the fundamental aspects of cyber security is the implementation of robust defenses against malware, phishing, ransomware, and other malicious activities. This includes using firewalls, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems. Regularly updating software and systems to patch vulnerabilities is also crucial. User education plays a significant role in cyber security. Individuals must be aware of common threats and adopt safe online practices, such as using strong, unique passwords and being cautious with email attachments and links. This book attempts to understand the new concepts that fall under the discipline of cyber security and how such concepts have practical applications. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with cyber security will benefit alike from this book.
