The world has become irrevocably dependent on the convenience, access,
and empowerment of the cyber world. Wireless internet, cell phones,
satellite communications, and network infrastructure allow the transfer,
storage, and dissemination of massive amounts of data that touch all
aspects of the economic, political, education and research world. This unprecedented capability to connect a globalized world carries significant risk and opportunity for cyber criminals and hackers to exploit cybersecurity weaknesses for their own gain.
