Abstract
This research delves into the awareness and worries surrounding cybersecurity threats among internet users. Given the escalating presence of digital technologies, cybersecurity threats pose significant risks across various sectors globally. Utilizing a comprehensive examination of literature and user surveys, this study aims to investigate the extent of awareness regarding cybersecurity threats, perceived risks, and actions taken to address these concerns. Results indicate that although there’s a general acknowledgment of cybersecurity issues, many users lack a profound comprehension of the potential online hazards they face. The study also identifies prevalent worries such as data breaches, identity theft, malware, phishing attacks, and ransomware. Moreover, it analyzes the factors influencing users’ attitudes and behaviors towards cybersecurity, encompassing demographics, past encounters, and educational backgrounds. Grasping internet users’ awareness and concerns about cybersecurity threats is vital for devising effective strategies to bolster online safety and security for individuals and entities alike.
