Cybersecurity | IJACSA

Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting computer systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access, disruption, or damage. It spans multiple layers of defense, including network security such as firewalls and VPNs, application security such as secure coding and vulnerability testing, endpoint protection, identity and access management, and cryptography for confidentiality and integrity. Common threat categories include malware, phishing, denial-of-service attacks, SQL injection, and increasingly sophisticated ransomware campaigns; a 2026 industry threat report recorded more than 7,500 ransomware disclosures for the year, continuing a four-year upward trend. Modern cybersecurity research draws heavily on machine learning for anomaly-based threat detection, behavioral analysis, and automated incident response, alongside traditional signature-based and rule-based defenses. Other active research areas include securing cloud infrastructure, IoT device security, blockchain-based authentication schemes, and privacy-preserving techniques such as differential privacy. As an open-access cybersecurity journal, IJACSA publishes peer-reviewed work on threat detection models, security architectures, cryptographic protocols, and vulnerability assessment methods.
