Definition of cyber
Origin :- as an element in word formation, ultimately from cybernetics (q.v.). It enjoyed explosive use with the rise of the Internet early 1990s. One researcher (Nagel) counted 104 words formed from it by 1994. Cyberpunk (by 1986) and cyberspace were among the earliest.

- As a stand-alone, it is attested by 1998 as short for cybersex (which is attested by 1995).
