Project Description for Cyber Security

Introduction

Cyber security is the application of technologies and controls to defend computers, networks, servers, and critical data from cyber-attacks. It is a large subject area that includes information security, network security, and other topics. Cyber-attacks have existed for decades and continue to be an evolving danger to companies, customers, and employees. They generally involve unauthorized information access that can cause massive, irreparable damage to businesses and threaten the identities of customers and users.

The scenario and the problems discussed in this chapter relate to implementing encryption-based defenses to prevent cyber-attacks.
