Cyber-policy and infrastructure has given the “short arm” of predictive knowledge a new way of development when it comes to us approaching it. In this viewpoint, predictive knowledge refers to the viewpoint and the ethical conduct of situations calling for immediate action and not knowing if there end up being an issue of consequences due to the fast ethical reactions.
Cyber policies have vastly changed over the years when it comes to our knowledge. When hackers learn a new way to gain access to servers and information they shouldn’t have access to, it is up to the security personal to find ways to shut them out of the server while also getting data as quick as possible. This however falls into like with our ethical problem and the infrastructure of that topic, since the personal who are in charge of keeping our data safe now deal with a moral issue. If they were to shut down the servers and stop the hackers from gaining more knowledge, they could risk problems such as not being able to turn it back on without having the hackers having a way back. If they were to keep the servers running the hackers could end up grabbing more information before they are forced out. Another issue that arises is until the damage is done most personal don’t know right away what information the hackers have stolen until after the attack, leading to files being unrecoverable due to not having made a recent backup.
Another way of approaching this development is by giving thought to what knowledge we already have on cyber policy and infrastructure. We know most cyber-topics require some sort of security to have in place, to at the least discourage tampering with. With information evolving every day though it becomes difficult for that predictability to come into play. This also influences our cyber infrastructure, as security features have to almost prepare for something that might not happen.
