  In response to increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks, a health-based
approach is being used to define and assess their impact. Two significant
cybersecurity workshops have fostered this perspective, aiming to standardize
the understanding of cyber harm. Experts at these workshops agreed on a public
health-like framework to analyze cyber threats focusing on the perpetrators'
intent, the means available to them, and the vulnerability of targets. We
contribute to this dialogue with the cyber sensorium concept, drawing parallels
between the digital network and a biological nervous system essential to human
welfare. Cyberattacks on this system present serious global risks, underlining
the need for its protection.
