Week 11 – Journal Entry 11

The cybersecurity analyst job as described in the video tells us several social themes, mostly the importance of trust, communication, and vigilance in digital interactions. Analysts must constantly assess and mitigate risks posed by human behavior, such as social engineering attacks, phishing scams, and insider threats. This underscores how cybersecurity is not just a technical field but also deeply rooted in social psychology. The role needs collaboration, as analysts must communicate threats effectively to both technical teams and non technical stakeholders. Also the job reflects broader societal concerns about privacy, security, and the ethical responsibility of protecting sensitive information from malicious actors.
