Abstract

In 1806, in one of his presentations at the Royal Society, Michael Faraday - the father of induced electricity - was asked by the Queen of England, who at the end of his presentation asked him, "This is all very interesting, Mr. Faraday, Is it? ". It is said that Faraday would have replied, "Majesty, what good is a newborn?" At that moment, nobody could imagine what was to come with the advent of electronics, the process of computerization of society and the emergence of cyberspace. Cyberspace is the new space of communication of humanity, one that integrates some of the most important innovations in the field of electronics, cybernetics, computing, information and communication. Cyberspace is profoundly transforming the economic and social order: it is spoken of in information society, it was of the virtual, digital life, symbiotic man.
