What are your thoughts on how security and privacy will be controlled? There is a tremendous amount of new technology today and with the amount of constant exploration and development it will be very difficult to keep the vast amount of information private and safe. Biometrics is a way to have some type of security and privacy, but nothing is completely secure or private. Biometrics is the use of physiological characteristics such as fingerprints, the blood vessels in the eyes, sound of voice and even breath. (Haag, pg 268) Biometric security includes a password that people create for themselves, an ATM card that is used along with the password and some type of individual physical characteristic such as facial recognition. It is more difficult to steal someone's physical characteristics but not totally unattainable. (Haag, 269)
When it comes to security there are many things that can compromise information. There are hard drives that crash, hackers and disgruntled employees.
There are various types of hackers out there searching for information that they can steal or sell. There are hackers that are constantly searching for areas that can be breached. Businesses hire hackers to look into their system and find areas that have the potential to be compromised. They want to find the hacker before they can do harm and they plug the holes. Security and privacy are ongoing issues that must constantly be monitored and updated. Security in the feature will probably be a chip implanted in a human and a reader to have access to that information.
