Without the cyber engineers we have nowadays we wouldn’t have the advanced technology we have to progress in this day in age. There remarkable work has helped us move to do such greater things as a human race with the growth of all the new technological projects they’ve designed, like mobile cell phones making it easier to communicate with people from all over the world and computers have been transformed in to having the options of either having a desktop or laptop they both do the same thing only difference is that a laptop is smaller, portable and consumes less power than a desktop making it way more easier to work on the go. To continue, cyber engineers have created a multitude of software designs used to help keep our networks safe from harmful cyber threats that are used by criminals to lure us into giving or stealing our personal information. Some examples of the software engineers have created to help with such vulnerabilities are, software updates engineers constantly release updates to help apps stay up to date and fix or protect them from possible threats they have also designed them to where they do it automatically without us worrying about doing it, another example is the implementation of strong security measures, these measures such as firewalls, encryption and IDS or IPS further known as intrusion detection system and prevention detection system all work to always actively identify and block malicious attempts to access your network, the last and final example is the encouragement to users of stronger passwords, passwords are what keep our accounts private from unwanted people having access to them so easily. I know for Apple users in one of the new updates when you are creating a new account the options of strong passwords that aren’t easily guessed pop up which makes it convenient for people who can’t think of one on the spot. Nevertheless we can thank cyber engineers for all their hard work and dedication to help us who aren’t so techy protect our networks at all costs.
