We are permanently in a state of digital warfare, where people are targeted even without prompting. I think it probably was not necessary when Bitcoin started, or even 2-3 years ago it could have been called "somewhat necessary"...but now, I think it is definitely necessary. I have done a lot of research and reading to support this view, trust me!

Under the wallets section would be most viable to relating it to Bitcoin (as cybersecurity in terms of Bitcoin is to protect your wallet and funds). Though (and I know aesthetics is not a primary focus for anyone) I think it aesthetically won't fit well there considering all of the other boards are for specific wallet software rather than subject/topic categories. I do think it deserves to be at most a sub-board, rather than a sub-board of a sub-board. Where it fits is challenging.

Yea a reconstruction of the Wallet section is great as well!

Instead of Bitcoin > Wallet software

a better construction would probably be:

Security > Wallet software > Bitcoin wallets

So we can have other things like Security > Internet security general, etc

I don't like the idea of putting it under the wallets subboard. You can try perhaps under the Development and Technical discussion board, but even there, I do not think that it is a suitable location either. Another place could be somewhere under the Economy board: Economy > Cybersecurity.

Economy is good. I suggested under "Other" with the additional label of privacy to go along with it. "Cybersecurity and Privacy".

I will do some more thinking and elaborate on the OP at some stage when I have some free time.
