What is cyber security?

Cyber security is how individuals and organisations reduce the risk of cyber-attack.

Cyber security's core function is to protect the devices we all use (smartphones, laptops, tablets and computers), and the services we access - both online and at work - from theft or damage.

It's also about preventing unauthorised access to the vast amounts of personal information we store on these devices, and online.

Why is it important?

Cyber security is important because smartphones, computers and the internet are now such a fundamental part of modern life, that it's difficult to imagine how we'd function without them. From online banking and shopping, to email and social media, it's more important than ever to take steps that can prevent cyber criminals getting hold of our accounts, data, and devices.

Primarily, holding a certification demonstrates our depth of cybersecurity knowledge and expertise – our specialisations within cybersecurity, alongside our demonstrated and paid work experience in the field. It also provides a benchmark for our skills and capabilities.

An organisation that is seeking to hire a cybersecurity professional can hire a certified cybersecurity professional with the full confidence of knowing the person is skilled, experienced and will perform their tasks ethically. It means our skillset can be verified and recognised globally.

As a certified professional, we not only meet a high capability standard, we also commit to upholding a code of ethics, with our path to certification also requiring that an existing credential holder can attest to our good character.
