Authors : Mimouni Salima . Meddour Rafik .

Abstract

Technological developments have had a significant impact on the establishment of cybersecurity to counter the growing cyber threats in a rapidly advancing digital environment and a digital society characterised by information accumulation, whether at the level of individuals, groups, or states. This has led to an international trend of studying cybersecurity and mobilising international efforts to encourage security measures to protect personal and collective electronic devices and data. Therefore, the aim of this study was to deconstruct the term cybersecurity and clarify its concept, as well as the theories that explain it, as outlined by researchers and specialists in this field. Keywords: Cybersecurity, cyber threat, control theory, information theory
