The basics

Let’s start this article with some basic cybersecurity terminology. Security hygiene, or cyber hygiene, is a general term used to describe the ongoing practice of keeping your technology and IT estate in a healthy and protected state. The metaphor with physical hygiene is valid because we know with our bodies that there’s no such thing as “set it and forget it”: if we don’t maintain regular hygiene practices and exercise, we atrophy. It’s a continual effort comprised of daily discipline, habit, and ritual.
