Because of the progression of computers there has been an improvement in the safety mechanisms that are used for our devices and home security. Technologies have data encryptions in computers help keep important information for the owners eyes only. There are several different apps and and tech that you can buy and download that can track down and lock down your computer if your device is lost. Then, there have been added methods to unlock your device such as facial recognition and finger print identification. Along with the safety benefits that came with the progression of technology there have also dangers that arose with its progression. One of these dangers is the higher possibility of breaches due to more important information being mainly online than in hard copy. Secondly, it is harder to find individuals who are performing cyber deviant acts because they may be located any where in the world. Thirdly, it is easier to perform frauds due to criminals who already have breached the system already have access to the information they need to enter the individuals other account from which they stole from.
Due to the many dangers technology bring to systems engineers make networks safer in several ways. One way is that they have different administrators assigned to information to allow certain individuals to allow access to certain information. Also, they assign these administrators to monitor the system so they can notify companies of breaches. Another, way they prevent dangers in cyber networks installing and using software, such as firewalls and data encryption programs to protect the networks. Engineers also notify management of the intrusions, and they also install software and hardware that notifies the system of breaches.
