cybersecurity-basics

From the author

Foundational cybersecurity literacy covering threat landscape (malware, phishing, social engineering, network attacks), defensive practices (encryption, authentication, access control, patching), privacy fundamentals (data collection, tracking, regulatory frameworks), and security reasoning (threat modeling, risk assessment, defense in depth). Use when explaining security concepts, evaluating system security, teaching safe technology practices, or reasoning about digital privacy. Distinct from professional penetration testing -- this skill covers what every technology user and designer should understand.
