Going on a Job Hunt
The two jobs I chose were Artificial Intelligence Security Specialist, and Data Security Analyst.Computer science, math, engineering, and other related disciplines are all combined in the interdisciplinary area of artificial intelligence (AI). Natural language processing, image recognition, robotics, and decision-making algorithms are just a few examples of the many uses for AI.AI Security Specialists should have excellent data analysis and problem-solving skills. They should be able to analyze large data sets and identify patterns and trends.My biggest surprise about Artificial Intelligence Security Specialist might be how diverse their skill set is.As a data security analyst, your job disciplines are to monitor your organization’s current data security protocols and then suggest ways to improve security.A data security analyst specializes in cybersecurity designed to protect large amounts of data.One of the biggest surprises about being a data security analyst is the constant evolving nature of the field. The rapid advancements in technology and the continuous emergence of new threats.
Ethical Considerations of CRISPR Gene Editing
Ethical considerations in BioCybersecurity include protecting privacy, responsibly using data, and preventing the misuse of biotechnologies. Obtaining informed consent for handling biological data is vital. However, it’s crucial to guard against unauthorized access to sensitive genetic information and the malicious use of biotechnological advancements. Striking a balance between research benefits and potential risks, along with fostering transparency in biosecurity practices, is essential for upholding ethical standards in this domain.
Opportunities for Workplace Deviance
The advent of cyber technology has opened up opportunities for workplace deviance in various ways. Employees who possess knowledge of cyber technology may endeavor to gain unauthorized entry into sensitive company data or systems, possibly motivated by personal gain or malicious intent. Online communication platforms can be harnessed for cyberbullying, harassment, or the dissemination of false information about colleagues, potentially eroding workplace morale and relationships. Workers can leverage their technological expertise to abscond with valuable company data, trade secrets, or intellectual property, which can be repurposed for personal benefit or sold to competitors. Cyber technology empowers employees to present notable insider threats, deliberately or inadvertently causing security breaches, data leaks, or disruptions to company operations. The use of company-provided devices or networks can lead to transgressions such as excessive personal internet usage, online shopping, or the sharing of inappropriate content during working hours. To counter these risks, organizations must implement robust cybersecurity measures, establish unequivocal policies, and offer cybersecurity awareness training to their workforce.
