The 21st century is characterized by the use of the Internet for a personal and professional daily life. We rely on this vast array of networks to communicate, socialize, network, travel, automate our homes, run the world economy, and provide many government programs and services.

What is cybersecurity all about?

Cyber security is made up of two words one is cyber and other is security. Cyber is related to the technology which contains systems and networks. Whereas security related to the protection which includes systems security, network security and application and information security. It may also be referred to as information technology security the practice of ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability (ICA) of information. Cybersecurity is comprised of an evolving set of tools, and risk management approaches. Cybersecurity leverages a growing number of tools, methods and resources that help organizations and individuals alike increase their cyber-resilience, meaning the ability to prevent or withstand damaging security events. Cyber security defends this connected world with highly trained experts and constantly enhanced or newly invented technologies, practices, and processes.

For an effective cyber security, an organization needs to coordinate its efforts throughout its entire information system. Elements of cyber encompass all of the following:

1.  Network security
2.  Application security
3.  Endpoint security
4.  Data security
5.  Identity management
6.  Database and infrastructure security
7.  Cloud security
8.  Mobile security
9.  Disaster recovery/business continuity planning
10.  End-user education

Why is Cyber Security needed?

A significant portion of that data can be sensitive information, whether that be intellectual property, financial data, personal information, or other types of data. Organizations transmit sensitive data across networks and to other devices in the course of doing businesses. This rapid market growth is fueled by an array of new technology initiatives, such as cloud-based applications and workloads that require security beyond the traditional data Centre and stringent data protection mandates. To deal with the current environment, advisory organizations are promoting a more proactive and adaptive approach. The technologies and applications we rely on daily are also changing and sometimes that means ushering in new vulnerabilities. For cybersecurity strategy to succeed, it must continually evolve to keep pace with the shifting strategies and technologies.

According to a 2018 Gartner study, the global cybersecurity market is expected to reach US$170.4 billion (appoximatelly12000billion Indian Rupee) by 2022. This rapid market growth is fueled by an array of new technology initiatives, such as cloud-based applications and workloads that require security beyond the traditional data Centre and stringent data protection mandates.

For cybersecurity strategy to succeed, it must continually evolve to keep pace with the shifting strategies and technologies.

With a secure infrastructure, one is able to unlock innovation and accelerate business value.

Cybersecurity framework

It's a set of policies and procedures meant to improve an organization's cybersecurity strategies. These frameworks are created by various cybersecurity organizations (including some government agencies) to serve as guidelines for organizations to improve their cybersecurity. Cybersecurity frameworks can become mechanisms by which government security regulations are imposed. Cybersecurity best practices can, and should, be implemented by large and small organizations, employees and individuals.
