The question to answer before we get to my thought on Cybersecurity is: What is Cybersecurity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When thinking of Cybersecurity, you may immediately think of hackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People trying to “hack into the mainframe” or causing a security breach are often what’s shown in movies, right? However, Cybersecurity isn’t necessarily the act of hacking. According to Gregg from IBM<\/a>, “Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting people, systems and data from cyberattacks by using various technologies, processes and policies.”<\/p>\n\n\n

Cybersecurity, to me, is a powerful career path created in order to protect people and businesses from having their information accessed by unwanted persons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that, however, there must be research on different topics in Cybersecurity. After all, there must be research to improve on the systems currently in place. Social Science plays a big role in Cybersecurity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With social sciences, I initially didn’t think it had much to do with Cybersecurity. I was stuck on the fact that Cybersecurity is a tech driven career. My thoughts were that with Cybersecurity, I didn’t have to think about that because all I was focused on was coding and using different programs to keep the systems safe. However, we have to understand people’s behaviors and thought processes in order to pinpoint what systems and information are the most desirable for breaches. That is the point of Social Sciences. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
