The statement that is NOT true about cybersecurity is:

"Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected."

This statement is misleading because individuals can also be significantly affected by cyber attacks, particularly if their personal data is compromised. Cyber attacks can lead to identity theft, financial loss, and other personal impacts, thereby affecting individuals directly.
