Abstract

In recent years, cyber security has emerged as an issue that has the attention of individuals, organisations, and governments around the world. The fact that operating systems, networks, and the cyber domain are not completely safe presents users of these systems with a wide variety of obstacles to overcome. One possible explanation for the rise in cybercrime is that fewer people are aware of the nature of the threat. A large number of internet users automatically trust the security of the software and programmes they use. Other contributors to the rise in cyber insecurity include difficulties in integrating physical and cyber security as well as a lack of international collaboration in the fight against cybercrime. The proliferation of mobile devices and technological advancements has made the risk of cybercrime significantly more severe. Because mobile phone users are easy targets for hackers and other cyber-crime perpetrators, a new strategy is required in order to combat cyber insecurity brought on by the proliferation of mobile technology.
