    Digital Security is the collective term


    that describes the resources
    employed to protect your online
    identity, data, and other assets. In
    other words, digital security is the
    process used to protect your online
    identity.
    What is digital security?
    44

    A digital security risk is an


    action or event that could result
    in loss or damage to computer
    software, hardware, data or
    information.
    What are digital security risks?
    Common Types of Digital Security Risks
    1. Malware - Is when an unwanted piece of programming or software
    installs itself on a target system, causing unusual behavior. This
    ranges from denying access to programs, deleting files, stealing
    information, and spreading itself to other systems.
    2. Password Theft – A common conclusion when you log in to an
    account, only to find your password changed and details lost. The
    reality is an unwanted third party managed to steal or guess your
    password and has since run amok with the information. It’s far
    worse for an enterprise, which may lose sensitive data.
    3. Ransomware – A nasty variant of malware, ransomware installs
    itself on a user system or network. Once installed, it prevents
    access to functionalities (in part or whole) until a “ransom” is paid
    to third parties.
    Things You Can Do To Keep
    Yourself Cyber Safe
    1. Keep Your Software Up to Date
    Turn on automatic system updates for your device
    Make sure your desktop web browser uses automatic security updates
    • Keep your web browser plugins like Flash, Java, etc. updated
    2. Use Anti-Virus Protection & Firewall
    • A firewall protects data from malicious attacks, allowing traffic to enter
    devices. Windows and Mac OS X have built-in firewalls, while routers
    should also have firewalls.
    3. Use Strong Passwords
    • Make a complex mixture of uppercase letters, symbols, and
    numbers.
    • Don’t use the same password twice.
    Cyber security
    Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting digital
    systems, networks, and data from cyber threats and
    attacks. It encompasses a wide range of measures,
    tools, and practices aimed at ensuring the
    confidentiality, integrity, and availability of digital
    assets. Cybersecurity involves safeguarding against
    various threats, including hacking, malware, phishing,
    data breaches, and other cyberattacks that can
    compromise the security of information technology
    systems and networks.

    Why is cyber security important?
    Cybersecurity is essential for protecting our
    digital assets, including sensitive personal and
    financial information, intellectual property,
    and critical infrastructure. Cyberattacks can
    have serious consequences, including
    financial loss, reputational damage, and even
    physical harm.
    But what’s the
    difference between
    digital security and
    cyber security? Or is
    there any difference
    between the two?
    Digital security focuses on protecting all types of
    digital data, including personal information, files,
    and communications from unauthorized access or
    damage. Cyber security, on the other hand,
    specifically deals with safeguarding digital
    systems, networks, and devices from cyber
    threats, such as hacking, malware, and data
    breaches. In essence, digital security is a broader
    and includes aspects beyond just cyber threats.
