Cyber Security Illustration


Cyber Security is also known as Information Security as it is applied to computers and networks. Its objective is to protect sensitive and valuable information from unauthorised access,hacking or natural disaster and at the same time keeping it accessible and productive to its intended users.


It is thus termed as the process of preventing and detecting unauthorised use of one's computer and network. It prevents unauthorised users ( intruders) from accessing any part of your computer system. It gives answers to questions such as:

  • Did someone attempt to break into your system?
  • Were they successful or not?
  • Did they harm your system by any means?
  • What security measures may help to overcome the loss,if any?
