Fundamentals of Cybersecurity

Prepared as reference notes for academic and professional use.


Introduction
Cybersecurity refers to the practice of defending systems, networks, and data from malicious
attacks. It is one of the fastest-growing fields due to the rising threat of cybercrime.

Types of Attacks
1. Malware
2. Phishing
3. Man-in-the-Middle (MITM)
4. Denial of Service (DoS)
5. SQL Injection
6. Zero-Day Exploits

Security Measures
1. Firewalls
2. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)
3. Encryption
4. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
5. Security Awareness Training

Case Study
The 2017 Equifax breach exposed sensitive data of 147 million people. It highlighted the
importance of patching systems on time.

Future Scope
AI-driven threat detection and quantum-resistant encryption are key areas of research.
