As many people are aware of, today’s society has become so dependent on technology. People are using different types of technology on the daily for many different uses. For all work technology is almost required as today’s jobs have been so dependent on technology. As technology grows, it is important for people to stay familiar with the new technology to benefit everyday life. People, mostly younger individuals seem to stay more in touch with technology. People are seen constantly on their phones looking at social media or different applications. Phones are needed as well to insure the safety of someone. Also to get around. I know I need my GPS on my phone for most anywhere I’m traveling to. With this new technology, it is hard for us and the government to keep up. New cybersecurity attacks and crimes are being committed. The government is sometimes unaware of what these new technologies are capable of. For example, many people believe that the popular app “TikTok” should be banned. They believe that it is a threat to someone’s personal data on their phones. This app has grown so much over the last year that people seem to overlook it because they love what the app is capable of and many also make money off of it. As a whole, we need to figure out some simple questions. How secure is our data? A lot of companies have billions of dollars in their company and can be taken down with ease in many cases. Can the company learn from an attack? It is important after an attack to follow all of the social security policies in order to not be attacked again. Lastly, what policies are in place? A company needs some policies to keep their information safe and able to be able to recover from an attack.
