Challenges in Cybersecurity for Businesses 41.0 IntroductionIn many businesses currently, cybersecurity is becoming a very important aspect of the daily operations. Owing to the increasing level of technology, many businesses are taking their operations online. Some store their data in the clouds and some adopting a virtual business platform. Besides, in the quest to expand operations, businesses are opening new branches in other countries, with central operations taking place in the head office. As such, these moves expose these businesses to threats such as hacking which in most cases interfere with systemic operations and loss of confidential data (Wang and Lu 2013). For example, Google lost some of its confidential data and patent rights in their Headquarters in China in 2009 when hackers infiltrated into their system. This research proposal introduces all possible vulnerabilities that businesses are susceptible to in an operational business framework. 2.0 Project ObjectiveThe primary objective of this proposal is to examine the challenges that businesses face on cybersecurity. The secondary objective of this research proposal include; i.To examine ways through which business face threats online. ii.To identify mitigation strategies for cybersecurity breaches and threats. 3.0 Project Scope
