The principles of science can be applied to cybersecurity in various ways, contributing to the development, implementation, and improvement of security of the network. Cybersecurity professionals will first have to use logical reasoning and critical thinking skills to respond effectively with the right solution. Next, they will need to be able to come up and test a solution or hypothesis, for fixing problems in the network. These hypotheses need to be testable; they need to be able to show that they will work and keep the network secure and not falter after multiple tests. They will also need to be open to revising solutions they already came up with and open for peer review, so they can have multiple people working together to finish the task effectively.
