Abstract

With an extensive growth in the use of Internet, Cyber Security has become an integral part of computer and information security. To ensure the safety and reliability of the information and the organization, security measures have become a prime importance. In order to provide or apply different security measures, one should know about the vulnerabilities that could exist and have an understanding of what different kinds of attacks can be carried out.

Cyber security plays an important role in the ongoing development of information technology, as well as internet services. The act of protecting information and information systems as network, computer datacenters and applications with appropriate procedural and technical measures is known as cyber security.
