The research article primary objective is to identify and analyze the common cybersecurity vulnerabilities and after learning the flaws is where prevention and mitigation strategies are implemented. The researcher was targeting to compare different research conducted on the cyber crimes that occurs and compare their mitigation and prevention strategies and what emerged best is malware, denial-of-service attack and phishing. The research question of focus is ‘what are the possible vulnerabilities that affect cyber applications’? The method used to collect the data is systematic mapping that played role in collecting and analyzing secondary information. The data was analyzed through statistical approach. According to the findings and conclusion the confidence level is 0.95.
