Discussion Board: Ethical Considerations of CRISPR Gene Editing
The ethical concern that comes with BioCybersecurity is the fact that it puts people in a very dangerous situation that potentially wont be able to be solved; like DNA being stolen. I feel like it’s a very high risk even if it can help with solving medical problems that have not been solved or takes a lot of resources to try and solve, the threat of becoming a primary target for hackers that want to do bad things or even sell to bad people is something that would need to take a lot of focus for the Cybersecurity sector to prioritize resources to prevent even the slightest risk. If someone’s DNA was to be stolen the idea of other stuff that could happen with that persons DNA is even more of a risk, like what if that persons DNA allows for them to get into bank accounts or what if that persons has connections to people with some form of security clearances, it’s a high risk idea that could cause a lot of unfixable problems and a lot of resources that could be used in other sectors.
