What's the difference between Information Security and Cybersecurity?

Cybersecurity is a buzzword these days. There are many definitions for it. The term appeared sometime around 1994. After all this time, we can't even agree on how to spell it.

Is it cybersecurity? Or cyber-security? Cyber Security? It doesn't really matter. Some people think cybersecurity is the same as Information Security. What's more close to reality is that cybersecurity is a subset of Information Security. On our website and publications, we use both terms, as we find it appropriate.

If this answer doesn't help you, just take an alternative one: the difference doesn't really matter, use these terms as synonyms - as long as you prioritize security of our business.
