The term Cyber Security is a broad-based terminology for Information Security.

This guide is for anyone that wants to increase their awareness of securing their digital activities and anyone getting started in the cyber security field.

The objective of this book is to point out the potential areas of weakness in facilities and as an individual, and give basic frameworks and defense strategies which would significantly reduce the chances of being infiltrated. This includes establishing a risk management framework, which entails integrating cyber risk into the firm problems and making it a managerial priority. The company is meant to adapt cyber risk into its risk mitigation and defense strategies; this will be molded into its organizational behavior and become part of the process.

The book also addresses things such as basic operations risks, which deal with companies or individuals. We will look at the basics of network defense, enforcement of access control, logging, and monitoring for more secure activities.

The book also points out people as essential risks to any enterprise or network (Even home networks). Cyber weakness is tricky considering it can happen at any time or place. People need to be made aware of the potential danger they pose to the security systems of a company. This orientation, as well as stricter policies for access control and authentication, should help to mitigate this issue in the long run.
As such, a cybersecurity problem should not be treated as an ‘if’ in this current world, but in terms of ‘when’ it is going to happen, and so this book is here to help with the preparation for these scenarios for a non-technical person or beginner in information security. This includes management systems, IT auditing, and best practice policies. Exemplary cybersecurity readiness involves an understanding of the threats to assets and the information that is relevant to the company, not to mention its people - while monitoring and detecting cybersecurity threats regularly.
