{tableName=glossary, name=Communication Security, description= Communication Security is the practice of protecting communications (messages, data, voice, video) from unauthorized access, alteration, theft, or destruction. It involves the use of various techniques and technologies to ensure that information is only accessible to those who are authorized to view it, and that it is kept secure while in transit. This includes the use of encryption, authentication, digital signatures, and other measures to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the communication. Communication security also involves the use of secure protocols and networks to protect data from being intercepted or modified by malicious actors. Additionally, communication security also involves the use of secure hardware and software to protect data from unauthorized access or manipulation., topic=[{id=97620570528, createdAt=1673040885452, updatedAt=1683947994134, path='cybersecurity-risk-management', name=' Cybersecurity Risk Management: A Guide for Businesses', 1='{type=string, value=Cybersecurity Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides essential information on cyber security risk management, including how to identify, assess, and mitigate risks to your organization's data and systems.
