Abstract

In the digital era, the rapid advancement of technology has transformed human life by enabling seamless communication, online transactions, and global connectivity. However, this transformation has also led to the emergence of cyber crime, posing serious threats to individuals, organizations, and governments. This research paper explores the concept, types, and impact of cyber crime, along with the significance of cyber security measures. It further examines real-world cyber attack case studies such as WannaCry, Equifax, SolarWinds, Yahoo, Colonial Pipeline, and Target breaches. The study highlights the need for robust security frameworks, proactive monitoring, and awareness to mitigate cyber threats effectively.
