Cyber Security

Abstract

Both cyber security and information security are frequently used interchangeably. The latter adds a new dimension to the former by considering human variables throughout the security process, making the individual the focus of attention and a potential target. However, such talks about cyber security often revolve around social facets of society and have significant implications. To aid in cyber security, several models and systems have been developed. Both the number and complexity of hacks have increased dramatically over the past few decades. Because of this, developing a plan that cannot be compromised by online assaults is essential. As hackers become more sophisticated in their use of state-of-the-art techniques and cutting-edge technology, we are seeing an increase in hacking, attacks, and data leaks. In this chapter, the authors investigate few models and recent trends of threats and attacks of security models. In addition, they have also studied their shortcomings and the methods previously employed to counteract such hazards.
