The importance of Cybersecurity• Security is about subjectively perceived threats/risks. • From industrial age to information societies
- Increasing dependence on the availability of ICTs- Number of Internet users growing constantly (now 40% of world’s population)
• Statistics and reports show that cyber-threats are on the rise- The likely annual cost to the global economy from
Cybercrime is estimated at more than $455 billion (Source: McAfee Report on Economic Impact of Cybercrime, 2013).
• Developing countries most at risk as they adopt broader use of ICTs
- E.g. Africa leading in Mobile-broadband penetration: almost 20% in 2014 - up from less than 2% in 2010 (Source: ITU ICT Statistics)
• Need for building cybersecurity capacity- Protection is crucial for the socio-economic wellbeing of a
country in the adoption of new technologies Source: Symantec 2015 Internet Security Threat Report
