devices i am qualified to speak on this
topic as i have done an extensive amount
of research that has made me quite
knowledgeable
here are the points i'm going to be
covering during the speech
first using cyber security would be a
great way to prevent being hacked
cyber security would allow you to have
protection from any unwanted programs
and lastly it protects businesses
websites from crashing
now that i have given you over an
overview of what i'll be talking about
today i'm going to start stating my

getting hacked and a lot of her personal
information had been used to access
other accounts of hers
if she would have had cyber security it
would have limited her chances of that
happening
don't you just hate having unwanted
programs on your computer those programs
appear from all the information that you
share online
cyber security would allow you to have
protection from any unwanted programs
what is cyber security cisa states that

passwords it will limit your it will
limit your chances of unwanted programs
being able to act as you
around a year ago i was browsing the

closed so i signed in but i never
thought to change the default password
within minutes i got notifications
that money had been withdrawn from the
account instantly i called to get my
card cancelled and when they asked me
how it happened i told them that i
didn't change the default password which
gave them easy access to all the
personal information i shared
cyber security also gives you
notifications when an email is

an example would be setting your
notifications
so that if you're ever on a website that
seems sketchy or not very popular you'll
instantly get a notification before you
try to sign into anything

an example of a type of cyber security
for businesses would be the zero days
attack the zero day attacks uses
exfoliation windows to protect
businesses that don't realize they are
under attack
to stop zero-day threats from reaching
endpoints with a highly secure
combination of award-winning middleware
prevention threat containment and
identity
cyber security boosts productivity and
reduces town time
if you were to get hacked for example a
common way to hack would be in a ddos
attack this means it does not allow
customers access to the website
this attack typically shuts your website
down for around a month possibly no
longer
with cyber security the website is only
down for a week
now that i have gone through all the
points i want to do a little overview of
the main points
the first point was that cyber security
is able to protect your devices from any
hackers
