Abstract

Cyber space is a domain characterized by the use of electronics and electromagnetic spectrum to store, modify, and exchanged data via networked systems and associated physical infrastructures. Cyber space is a boundless space known as the internet. It can be seen as the space in which computer transactions occur, particularly transactions between different computers. Images and text on the Internet exist in cyberspace. The term is used in conjunction with virtual reality, designating the imaginary place where virtual objects exist. If a computer produces a picture of a building that allows the architect to “walk” through and see what a design would look like, the building is said to exist in cyberspace. Cyber crime is a series of organized crime attacking cyberspace and cyber security. Cyber crime such as; hacking into Computers. It can be through a network system and clicking into unfamiliar links connecting to unfamiliar Wi-Fi, downloading software and files from unsafe sites, power consumption, electromagnetic radiation waves, and many more. However, Cyber security is a critical issue and should be taken seriously because it has risen to become a national concern. Currently, most electronic devices such as Computers, laptops and cell-phones come with built-in firewall security software, but despite this, Computers are not 100 percent accurate and dependable to protect our data. Computers can be protected through well built software and hardware. By having strong internal interactions of properties, software complexity can prevent software crash and security failure.
