Watch this video and pay attention to the way that movies distort hackers.
I think the media influences the understanding of cybersecurity for individuals who are not familiar with it already. I think the media, and movies especially, make cybersecurity seem like it is only important once a hack has taken place. I do not often see blue-team cybersecurity representation in television or movies before there is an active attacker. I think the media also shows hackers launching cyber attacks successfully in hours or even minutes. This is completely inaccurate since most advanced hacks take days, if not months to plan and successfully execute. Overall, I think the media shows cybersecurity in the context of the last step from a major attack which makes many individuals fear cyber attacks even more.
