What Is Cybersecurity?
4 min read
By now, you know phones can watch you, and hackers work behind the scenes to steal your data. But what do we call the shield that protects you from all this? It's called cybersecurity.
Simple Definition
Cybersecurity means protecting your devices, accounts, and personal data from people who want to steal, damage, or misuse them. It covers everything — your phone, laptop, social media, even your smart home devices.
Why It Matters to Everyone..

What's Next
Understanding cybersecurity is the first step. But to really protect yourself, you need to know exactly how hackers attack — because they don't all use the same tricks.
