Preventive Cybersecurity: An Interdisciplinary Framework for Digital Resilience in Contemporary Brazil

Social life and organizational operations have become deeply dependent on digital infrastructures. As a result, cyberattacks increasingly combine technical weaknesses, psychological manipulation, governance failures, and educational gaps. This article examines preventive cybersecurity as a sociotechnical capability and proposes the Interdisciplinary Cyber Prevention Framework (FIP-Ciber), designed for the Brazilian context. The study is applied, exploratory-descriptive, and qualitative, with support from secondary quantitative data. Its methodological approach combines an integrative review with documentary analysis of 35 scientific, regulatory, and technical-institutional sources, published mainly between 2019 and July 2026. The findings show that prevention cannot be reduced to purchasing security tools. It requires coordination among governance, technical architecture, human behavior, continuous education, risk communication, legal compliance, and organizational learning. FIP-Ciber brings these areas together through six dimensions, four maturity levels, and an operational cycle comprising diagnosis, prioritization, implementation, education, monitoring, and improvement. Recent indicators point to the continuing relevance of the human element, the growth of vulnerability exploitation and ransomware, and gaps in formal security policies among Brazilian companies. The study concludes that an interdisciplinary, measurable, and risk-proportionate strategy can reduce attack surfaces, support early detection, and strengthen digital resilience without improperly shifting responsibility to users.
