Defining Breach Cybersecurity

A Cybersecurity Breach is an event in which a malicious actor gains unauthorized access to a system or network, often to steal sensitive data or disrupt operations. Breaches can be caused by a variety of malicious activities such as ransomware, phishing, malware, and social engineering. In a breach, an attacker may be able to view, modify, or delete sensitive data, install malware or malicious code, or even take control of the system or network.
