After reading the article “Social Cybersecurity: An Emerging National Security Requirement,” I was able to recognize that social cybersecurity can be a really good and bad thing. The definition of social cybersecurity is “ an emerging scientific area focused on the science to characterize, understand, and forecast cyber-mediated changes in human behavior, social, cultural, and political outcomes, and to build the cyber-infrastructure needed for society to persist in its essential character in a cyber-mediated information environment under changing conditions, actual or imminent social cyber-threats.” It is different from traditional cybersecurity because the traditional way is being able to manipulate and hack computers. Social cybersecurity is manipulating people and hacking humans in a sense. If social cybersecurity isn’t being taken seriously or people aren’t well educated on it, it can lead to disaster. People also need to be informed about what is going on as well.
