Abstract: In the digital era, cybersecurity has become a fundamental
requirement for protecting information, maintaining privacy, and ensuring the
functionality of digital systems. As individuals, businesses, and governments
increasingly rely on online platforms, cloud services, and connected devices, cyber
threats have expanded in both complexity and frequency. These threats include
malware attacks, phishing schemes, data breaches, identity theft, and disruptions to
critical infrastructure. The consequences of such attacks can be severe, affecting
financial stability, national security, social trust, and individual well-being. This paper
explores the importance of cybersecurity, examines the most common types of cyber
threats, analyzes the societal and economic implications of insecure digital
environments, and proposes practical strategies for enhancing digital safety. The study
highlights the global need for cybersecurity awareness, stronger regulatory policies,
and technological advancements to build a safe and resilient digital future.
