Which statement below is NOT true about cybersecurity? (2 points)
• Cybersecurity is the protection of computer systems, networks, and data from digital attacks.
O As we rely more on computing devices to store and send data, we increase our vulmerability to cyber attacks.
• Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected.
O Recent data breaches have released personal information of hundreds of millions of people.
• Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected.
The statement "Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected" is NOT true about cybersecurity.
To determine which statement is NOT true about cybersecurity, let's examine each statement:
1) "Cybersecurity is the protection of computer systems, networks, and data from digital attacks."
This statement is True. Cybersecurity indeed involves protecting computer systems, networks, and data from digital attacks.
2) "As we rely more on computing devices to store and send data, we increase our vulnerability to cyber attacks."
This statement is True. As our dependence on computing devices grows, we become more susceptible to cyber attacks.
3) "Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected."
This statement is NOT true. Cyber attacks can affect individuals as much as large organizations. In fact, recent data breaches have exposed personal information of millions of people, indicating the impact on individuals.
Therefore, the statement "Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected" is the one that is NOT true about cybersecurity.
