What is Cyber Security?

Sometimes called computer security, cyber security is the technology used to keep users, their hardware, and their data safe online. It may protect against digital attacks like viruses and trojans, or against scams and other forms of internet danger. Cyber security may include virus and malware protection, firewalls, virtual private networks (VPNs), content filters, and other types of security. The best defense is a multi-layered approach featuring many, if not all, of these technologies.
