Given the proliferation of IT in everyday life, we need to change the language and remove "cyber" from cybersecurity and cyberattack. So subconsciously accepts that this is what a modern meaning is.

I wholeheartedly agree with this.

Similar to how we don't refer to our phones as smartphones anymore. Back in the 1990s, if you had asked me to check the weather on my phone, I would've thought you meant calling up the weather channel/hotline, but now we all know exactly what you mean.
