What Is Cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, devices and data from digital attacks, unauthorised access, theft and damage.
Cybersecurity covers the tools and practices that keep your business safe online: strong access controls, firewalls, updates, backups, monitoring and staff awareness.
Common threats include phishing, malware, ransomware and hacked websites. Basic protections — updates, strong passwords, backups and monitoring — prevent the majority of incidents.
