Descripción: Rapid advances in technology are transforming the ability of every individual and every organization to better collect, analyze, and use its information as never before. Integrated networks, fueled by the internet, have removed the historical barriers to productively sharing information, unleashing the capacity of technology to revolutionize our economic and personal lives.
This phenomenon has seen the rise of the cyber ecosystem: a complex community of interacting devices, networks, people and organizations, and the environment of processes
and technologies supporting these interactions.
The cyber ecosystem’s ability to simplify the sharing of information is simultaneously its greatest benefit and its greatest threat. The vulnerability of private and valuable information to theft, alteration or destruction by criminals or other malicious actors
continuously increases. Localized disruptions can rapidly trigger a cascading sequence of events that can cause widespread technology disasters across entire networks
and communities.
