direct connection with various sectors of public life, such as politics, economy, security, culture,
and others. Most countries rely on cybersecurity to protect their official and non-official insti

has become one of the top priorities for national security in any country.
Iraq’s national security suffers from major crises, some stemming from new technological
transformations, creating additional security, economic, and social burdens. Cybersecurity has
emerged as a modern and vital element of Iraq’s national security framework.
Themostdangerousaspect of cyber threats is that they represent invisible challenges. In the age
of advanced technology, information security plays a crucial role in preventing and countering
cyberattacks. Iraq, especially since 2003, due to increased global connectivity and technical
advancements, has become more exposed to cyberattacks and security challenges threatening
