Cyber threats are internet-based attempts to attack information systems
and hack critical information. These threats include hacking, malware, and
phishing, and have the capability to capture all the critical information
stored in information systems. Cyber security protects against cyber threats by
identifying, monitoring, and resolving them while, at the same time,
maintaining the confidentiality of information systems. It primarily involves
measures taken to detect, monitor, report, and counter such threats. These
solutions can be deployed as on-premises, cloud-based, or hybrid solutions
