A total of 384 respondents were selected from Enugu State to provide data for the study. In the sample, only people with background on issues related to cyber security were included. The questionnaire served as the instrument for data collection. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. It was found that the sample studied reported that digital media are significantly and negatively affecting cyber security breaches, and promoting cyber crimes. The result of the hypotheses tested revealed a significant association between digital media and cyber security breaches and digital media and cybercrime.
