š Day 1 of 60: Cybersecurity from Scratch to Advanced I'm starting a 60-day series where I'll Start cybersecurity step by step ā from absolute basics to advanced SOC concepts. One topic a day, in simple language anyone can understand. Sharing what I've learned, hoping it helps someone starting their journey. š ā Day 1: What is Cybersecurity? In simple words ā Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and data from digital attacks. Think of your house š : ⢠You lock the door ā that's Access Control ⢠You don't open the door for strangers ā that's Awareness ⢠You install a CCTV camera ā that's Monitoring ⢠You keep valuables in a locker ā that's Data Protection Cybersecurity does the same thing ā but for your digital world: your laptop, mobile, bank account, company servers, and cloud data. š” Why does it matter? Every 39 seconds, a cyber attack happens somewhere in the world. From OTP fraud on a phone to ransomware shutting down hospitals ā everything falls under cybersecurity. š¦ The 3 pillars you'll hear everywhere (we'll go deep on Day 2): ⢠Confidentiality ā only the right people can see the data ⢠Integrity ā data is not modified by anyone unauthorized ⢠Availability ā data and systems are accessible when needed Together they're called the CIA Triad ā the foundation of everything in security. Follow along if you're starting your cybersecurity journey ā and if you have questions, drop them in the comments. We all learn together. š¬ #CyberSecurity #Day1of60 #InfoSec #LearnCyberSecurity #SOC #BlueTeam #CyberAwareness #KnowledgeSharing
