Lately, technologies have revolutionized with more advancements. These advancements are set to transform the future of lives and businesses alike. In this present era, we are exposed to modern improvements like 5G and IoT, Artificial intelligence, blockchain tech, cloud technology and machine learning. These technologies create efficiency, save time, reduce costs and unlock new opportunities. The world is converting itself towards a digital future but along with it, there is a rise in threats of cyber-attacks.
A huge amount of data is created online by the business firms and the data has to be protected from unauthorized access. Therefore the businesses will encounter the challenges in improving their cybersecurity to thwart malicious attacks from being effective. It is an easy job for the attackers to exploit because these technologies are new; vulnerabilities are less known which leads to increase in ambiguities. Therefore the organizations need to effectively defend themselves from advancing cyber-attacks.
The objective of cybersecurity aims to reduce the malicious attacks and protect the confidential data from breach or unauthorized exploitation of systems, networks and technologies. The organizations need to develop robust cybersecurity as the defence against the cyber-attacks in future.
Cybersecurity Vs information security
There is a difference between the two:
Cybersecurity focuses on protecting the computer systems whereas information security protects the information assets. There are 3 pillars for cybersecurity:
- People
- Process
- Technology
Cybersecurity is important because the costs of cybersecurity breaches are increasing, cyber-attacks are sophisticated, cybercrime is a big business
CyberGraph is a startup that develops an artificial intelligence system to collaborate with cybersecurity analysts to be responsible for robust security for enterprise networks. They are mapping possible cyber threats to prevent more attacks in the future. How is it different from the traditional cybersecurity measures? They provide a contextualized incident story, highlights the critical areas that ultimately support the cybersecurity analysts to focus on the key things.
The associate vice president for research, innovation and entrepreneurship states that CyberGraph provides an opportunity to enable more eligible cybersecurity analysts to operate with high efficacy. These positions will continue to be high in demand during the pandemic COVID-19.
