Evaluation


After conducting primary and secondary research, I've gained a deeper appreciation of home complex and critical cyber security really is.


What stands out:

  • Cybersecurity is not just technical human behavior matters just as much.
  • Tools like firewall and antivirus are helpful, but user training is vital.
  • Organization need layered security and constant vigilance.

The research inspired me to continue learning possibly pursuing certifications like:

  • CompTIA security+
  • Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)
  • Cisco's CCNA Security 

🖥️ PPT Creation Steps 

  1. Topic selection and survey design
  2. Research gathering (IBM, NCSC, academic journals)
  3. Slide creation : clean layout, icons, survey graphs 
  4. Practice delivery and script revision

What went well      

  • Team collaboration
  • Clear survey structure
  • Visually engaging PPT with real data
What I'd Improve 
  • Collect more responses for better sampling
  • Start earlier for deeper secondary research 
🔮 Future Outlook
As cyber threats evolve, it's essential for individuals to practice basic hygiene: strong passwords, 2FA toward suspicious links and reporting threats promptly. This project empowered me to think critically about digital safety and to help others do the same.

Welcome to my Cyber Security Blog!

       Hello and welcome! I'm Sajinthavi Navarajah, a computing and Engineering student with a strong passion for cyber security and ethical technology. This blog is part of an academic assignment where I explore a critical topic in modern IT: Cyber security. 💡  Why I chose this topic  With the increasing reliance on the internet for education, communication, finance and healthcare, cyber security is no longer optional it's essential. I've witnessed first hand how people lose access to accounts and suffer data breaches due to weak security awareness. This blog is my effort to education and spread practical, research based knowledge about digital safety. 👩  Something about me I enjoy researching technology trends and understanding the deeper"why" behind digital issues. I'm especially interested in ethical hacking and how attackers think because understanding that is key to defending systems. 🚨 What inspires me A friend once lost access to all of her ...

Exploring Cyber Security Research at De- Montfort University.

 Exploring Cyber Security Research at DMU by Sajinthavi Navarajah , Computing and Engineering Student at De Montfort University. As a Computing student at De Montfort University, I've had the opportunity to explore the evolving world of cyber security through high quality research, expert teaching and industry collaboration. DMU has established itself as a leading institution for cyber security research in the UK, and this post aims to highlight the extensive resources and academic excellence available to students like myself . Cyber Technology Institute (CT) At the core of DMU's cyber security research is the Cyber Technology Institute (CT) a nationally recognized center for excellence. the CTI has been designated as an Academic Research (ACE- CSR) by the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), a division of GCHQ. Key research areas: Malware and threat detection. Digital forensics and incident response Cyber crime and societal impact Industrial and infrastructure security Artif...

Cyber Security Case Study

 Real - World Cyber security case study - The NHS Ransomware attack What happened? In May 2017 , the UK's National Health Service (NHS) was hit by a global ransomware attack known as WannaCry. This cyber security affected over 200,000 computers across 150 countries, including key NHS systems in England and Scotland. The ransomware encrypted files and demanded payment in Bitcoin for access restoration. Many NHS services were disrupted: surgeries were cancelled, ambulances were diverted and sensitive patient data was temporarily inaccessible. Why it mattered Healthcare systems handle sensitive and life-critical data  The NHS was not targeted directly it was affected because it was running outdated Windows systems The attack exposed major weaknesses in legacy infrastructure and incident response planning. What Caused IT? Lack of timely system updates (many systems were running Windows XP) No centralized patch management or vulnerability scanning Insufficient training for staff ...
