The Internet of Things will take an ugly turn as hackers start breaking into people's thermostat to steal money from their bank account because the thermostat was connected to their garage door, which was connected to their car's system, which allowed direct payments from their bank account. The threat landscape is changing everyday! We win if we change our e-behavior with it, they win if we don't.
While this is true, I just feel like there isn't enough help out there. I know a few people who are security conscious but are not sure what they really need to do to "protect" themselves. Loads of articles out there but most of them require a certain level of familiarity with tech which is not very appealing to the uninitiated.
Well true the help needs to be increased. Programs like National Cybersecurity Awareness Month need to be popularised more.
Also most people are not updated with what's happening and what news threats are popping up everyday.
Yes, we are entering an age where cybersecurity cannot be just a resposibility of the experts. We need all people in the organization to be aware and stay secure on their part. One bad fish spoils the entire pond. Similarly, one loophole is enough for entire systems to go down.
Cybersecurity awareness is foundation of digital world. all of us are living in digital world now and now IoT being around, we are further being digitalized.
All of us must be aware on Cyber security basics and concepts. Prevention and awareness is better than any cure.
Growing Internet activity created demand for cyber security in abundance. The least thing we can do to secure all the information is by increasing awareness among the users and create a user friendly, foolproof environment to secure our personal data.
Yes, in this cyber-addicted world, it is the least you can do to protect yourself. So, take charge and be responsible while you do your 'things' in the Internet.
