The Role of Cybersecurity in Confronting Intellectual Security Threats
Author:
Abstract: The rapid development of digital human communication platforms and the globalization phenomenon have led to exposure to massive amounts of information every day. Furthermore, social media networks become mature platforms for social participation in information and interests exchanges, news, and highlighting events. This in turn can inevitably lead to various types of intellectual influences among people of different ages. This study aims to identify the role of cybersecurity in confronting intellectual security threats, such as extremism and terrorism. The study sample consists of 500 male and female students at Qassim University.
