The report provides an intricate analysis of cyber security defined in contemporary operational digital environments. An extensive literature review is formed to determine how the construct is reviewed in modern scholarly contexts. The article seeks to offer a comprehensive definition of the term "cybersecurity" to accentuate its multidisciplinary perspectives. A meaningful concise, and inclusive dimension will be provided to assist in designing scholarly discourse on the subject. The report will offer a unified framework for examining activities that constitute the concept resulting in a new definition; "Cybersecurity is the collection and concerting of resources including personnel and infrastructure, structures, and processes to protect networks and cyber-enabled computer systems from events that compromise the integrity and interfere with property rights, resulting in some extent of the loss." The encapsulation of the interdisciplinary domains will be critical in improving understanding and response to emerging challenges in cyberspace.
