Abstract: 
In today’s cyber world, information or data has the highest importance. So, it needs to be protected every time. The way we keep our valuable belongings in the locker on the same line data should be kept in the locker but at the same time it should be accessible whenever it is needed. But many a times, people who are part of this cyber world are not technical people. Information about users is being exchanged due to a growth in online communication utilizing various electronic devices including mobile phones, tablets, and other convenient forthcoming technologies. These links can make it simple to access the information of other users, which confirms the necessity of establishing trust and security in our everyday digital lives. Information security is the practice of using the proper procedural and technical controls to secure information and information systems, such as networks, data centers, and apps. This research study tries to give an overview of information security in terms of several methods for protecting data from threats and assaults.
