Cybersecurity relates to science as one of the major aspects of defending a system and observing that system against threats. I would describe cybersecurity as a defense against systems and devices. I would also say within the cybersecurity field the identification of threats and the prevention of threats through tests such as pen testing. Pen testing can be thought of as essentially, a science experiment. Authorized security professionals will run a mock cyber attack on a computer system in order to see if it is strong enough to protect itself from the real thing. There are also a lot of policies in cybersecurity such as when you agree to the terms of service. These are related to the aspect of identification within a specific server.
