5. Conclusion

Modern information systems are exposed to threats against which they must be protected. To this end, risk analysis methods can first reveal the vulnerabilities of these systems. This is followed by a number of technical solutions that enable effective countermeasures to be implemented.

The field of cybersecurity is currently booming, partly because technologies are evolving and countermeasures need to adapt, and partly because attackers are constantly developing new techniques to try and circumvent these countermeasures.
