This could range from having to protect your computer from virtual attacks or having to patch loopholes or holes within a companies security architecture. One of the most useful uses for cyber security is the amount of protection a specialist could provide anyone after going to school and pursuing a career in the network security field. Cybersecurity professions have  there own designations and specific schooling one must take. It is trully a new and growing field within computer science.

This is all within reasonable accord so that a company cannot directly attack another organizations techniques. This governing body provide guidelines that all organizations must follow in order to protect themselves from cyber attacks.

Cyber attacks are hard to trace because most instigators use virtual private networks or proxy servers. You might be asking yourself "what the hell is that!", theses terms are just fancy terms for saying your masking yourself from being traced, they are basically changing there locations/IP addresses so that if they are traced it will not show their real location, but  a dummy location.
