We are living in an age where Internet is the most important part of our lives. Millions of people use it daily for their personal and professional needs. Large amounts of data is exchanged every day, but the moment you connect through the Internet you and your data are exposed. Cyber Security has been introduced as a way to ensure that people can use the Internet safely without any threats or insecurity.
Cyber Secure Pakistan (CSP) is an initiative taken by the Pakistan Information Security Association (PISA), to converge national and international stakeholders and relevant professionals at one point. Since 2012 Cyber Secure Pakistan has conducted very successful events to raise important issues regarding cyber security, but most importantly come up with a solution for these issues.
