Cybersecurity services are a set of practices and technologies designed to protect computer systems, networks, data, and digital infrastructure from cyber threats such as hacking, data breaches, viruses, and ransomware. These services help organizations ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of their information.

KEY TYPES OF CYBERSECURITY SERVICES

1. Network Security

• Protects internal networks from unauthorized access and threats.
• Includes firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and VPNs.

2. Endpoint Security

• Secures end-user devices like computers, mobile phones, and tablets.
• Involves antivirus software, malware protection, and patch management.

3. Application Security

• Focuses on safeguarding software applications from external threats.
• Uses code scanning, security testing, and updates to prevent exploits.

4. Cloud Security

• Ensures that data stored in cloud platforms is safe from breaches.
• Tools include encryption, identity access management (IAM), and security posture monitoring.

5. Data Security

• Protects sensitive data from unauthorized access or loss.
• Includes encryption, tokenization, and secure backup.

6. Identity and Access Management (IAM)

• Ensures that only authorized users can access specific data and systems.
• Uses authentication methods like passwords, biometrics, and multi-factor authentication (MFA).

7. Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)

• Monitors and analyzes security events in real-time to detect and respond to threats.
• Integrates data from various sources for centralized security management.

8. Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Assessment

• Ethical hackers simulate attacks to find and fix security weaknesses.
• Regular assessments help maintain a strong security posture.

9. Incident Response & Disaster Recovery

• Preparedness plans for identifying, responding to, and recovering from cyber attacks.
• Includes backup systems and business continuity planning.
