Cyber is a term that means “related to computers, computer networks, the internet.” Cybersecurity deals with ways to protect against hacking, viruses, intercepted emails or texts, protecting your passwords and information stored on computing devices, etc.

Just as there’s crime in real life, there’s crime in the computers / internet realm too, information theft, hacking, attacks to disable websites or servers, etc. etc. Cybersecurity focuses on protections against that.
