Cyber Security

Cybersecurity is the techniques of protecting computers, networks, programs and data from unauthorized access or attacks that are illegal.  It includes controlling physical access to the hardware, as well as protecting against the harm that may come via network access, data and code injection.

The field is of growing importance due to the increasing reliance on the computer system and the internet, the wireless network such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, the growth of smart devices, including smartphones, televisions and tiny devices as part of the internet of Things.

Serious financial damage has been caused by security breaches, but because there is no standard model for estimating the cost of an incident, the only data available is that which is made public by the organization involved. 

As with physical security, the motivations for breaches of computer security vary between attackers. Some are activists, and some are criminals looking for financial gain.

According to the survey of the "Internet threats" from www.surveymonkey.com:
