Cybersecurity-Beyond Data Protection

Cybersecurity: Beyond data protection Security threats date back to the inception of the Internet.What started out as a simple project to connect several universities together for the purposes of research, grew to the behemoth of a global network we know now as the World Wide Web.In 1958, the United States government created the Advance Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to focus on technological research.Its purpose was to stay ahead of the Soviet Union's technological advancement.In 1969, ARPANET was created out of frustration that there were a limited number of powerful computers in the country available to research investigators.In 1976, the ARPANET was expanded by connecting to the packet radio network (PRNET) using radio transmitters and receivers instead of phone lines.In 1977, the satellite network (SATNET) was added to this network and the Internet was born.
