Cyber threats aren’t something that only happens in movies, they also happen in real life. Cybersecurity, also known as information technology security, is the practice of protecting computer systems that contain important and/or confidential information.
It’s responsible for combatting threats that can happen in the day-to-day of an organization, website, server, or online transaction, providing protection for their network systems, web apps, emails, etc.

Cybersecurity has two different facets: Offense and Defense. The teams that work on these facets, Red and Blue Teams, are internally responsible for validating the entire organization’s security actively and rigorously.
