Digital Attacks on Mass Media

        The three trends within the cybersecurity industry that I found to be interesting were the information warfare impact on society, chip and pin rise and downfall, and adware attacks on company networks

Our society and critical infrastructures have become largely dependent on computer networks and information technology solutions. Cyber-attacks have become much more of a problem as our technology has increased. Information media can be divided into social and traditional media. Social and traditional media platforms continue to become increasingly popular across countries around the world, making information dissemination very accessible.
