Cyber security is an increasingly important requirement for global business and modern society. We exist in a data-centric world, where information technology and associated communications networks and services pervade every aspect of our lives.
This makes the protection of our digital assets and activities in cyberspace of critical importance, whether for individual life experience or a prosperous and sustainable society. But the challenge to understand cyber risk and deliver effective and accessible security becomes harder as technology continues to rapidly evolve and our systems become ever more complex.
We are increasingly dependent upon such information and communications infrastructures and the threats we face are organised and evolving the skills to exploit our dependency to further their interests.

To help consumers understand online risks and practice safe behaviors, Webroot security experts recommend the following:
- Phone home safely - Mobile malware is on the rise, especially on Android devices, so take a moment to swing by the marketplace or app store to install a mobile security application that will safeguard your device against attacks. Many security apps can also help you locate your phone if it is lost or stolen.
- Be wary of WiFi - It can be tempting to take advantage of free WiFi access points in airports, hotels or cafes, but resist the urge to use those connections to do anything other than browse.
Unsecured wireless connections can leave you vulnerable to a variety of risks, from data-stealing malware to wireless snooping of your logins or email messages by other travelers and guests.

Network Security and More
Don Knezek, executive director of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), notes that starting a BYOD program means making adjustments when it comes to security, especially protecting a district’s proprietary and secure data. That function, he says, used to be handled by an effective firewall that kept out unwanted users and their devices.
“Nowadays, you have to have a layer past the firewall that we didn’t have to deal with when we simply said no to user-owned devices,” he says. “Now all of a sudden, you have multiple points of entry at different levels of access, and that requires more diligence.”
One key to maintaining adequate security, Knezek and other experts say, is to have multiple networks: one for Wi-Fi traffic, one for district business and for other secure information for teachers and administrators only, and one for students and outside users of the district’s Web site.

Bringing together two separate pieces of security research reveals vulnerability to cybercrime on an alarming scale.
When trying to get a handle on cybercrime today, consider this: In millions of homes across America, unencrypted company information is sitting on unprotected desktops and laptops – in the hands of employees who have had no security training.
At the same time, we see software being deployed that can stealthily and remotely scan the hard drives of those machines for specific data, and secretly transmit it back to the scanner.
