Ensuring the cybersecurity of computers, networks, programs, and data relies on multiple layers of protection involving the detection, investigation, and remediation of threats. Users need to understand and comply with basic data security principles like choosing strong passwords, being wary of attachments in email, and backing up data. However, many questions remain over whether people can outsmart [[Social Engineering Attacks]]. Common technology used to protect endpoint devices, such as computers, smart devices, and routers; networks; and the cloud, include firewalls, DNS filtering, malware protection, antivirus software, and email security.
