Cybersecurity

The Cybersecurity category on Bayelsa Watch focuses on explaining how digital threats are evolving and how protection methods are being adopted by individuals, businesses, and public systems. Coverage is built around verified statistics and practical facts on email security, phishing, spam, firewall security, endpoint protection, antivirus performance, and identity-based risks. Key threat areas such as ransomware, malware, data breaches, credential leaks, and social engineering are also tracked, with attention given to how attacks happen and what controls reduce exposure. A strong emphasis is placed on translating complex security topics into clear, measurable information. Statistics are presented through in-depth charts, graphs, and tables that highlight attack frequency, breach patterns, common entry points, response timelines, and real-world impact across sectors. When available, data is also compared across time periods to show how risks are changing and where new vulnerabilities are emerging. Practical security decisions are supported by explaining what the numbers mean in real terms, including prevention steps, detection methods, and recovery considerations. The objective is to help readers understand cyber risk with clarity, using data rather than assumptions. Whether the goal is to improve personal security habits or to support organizational security planning, this category is designed to provide reliable insights that are easy to follow and grounded in evidence.
