This study addresses the significant risks faced by students at the University of Science and Technology (UST) – Aden Branch, stemming from the technological lag in Yemen and the sudden shift toward reliance on technology and the internet without adequate awareness infrastructure to mitigate associated risks. The study's results revealed that, despite the students' intensive use of the internet for academic and social purposes, they exhibit a noticeable lack of awareness regarding cybersecurity threats. Phishing attacks, malware, and password-related threats were found to be the most prevalent, largely due to limited knowledge of basic protection mechanisms. The primary aim of this research is to assess students' awareness levels concerning cybersecurity threats and attacks. To achieve this, a quantitative approach was employed, using specially designed questionnaires for data collection. The study involved a sample of 148 students, examining their awareness of cybersecurity threats and their digital behavior.
