Abstract

As digital transformation accelerates across industries, cyber security has emerged as both a critical enabler and a complex challenge. This paper explores the technological advancements, structural challenges, and strategic frameworks essential for robust cybersecurity in the modern digital ecosystem. Emphasizing literature and supported by tables, flowcharts, and visual data, this work provides an integrated view of how organizations and governments are responding to evolving cyber threats. Key themes include AI-driven security, quantum computing risks, ethical hacking, and policy formation. The study underscores the urgent need for adaptive, ethical, and scalable cyber defense strategies in a hyper-connected world.
