Question

In 1-2 pages, identify a social networking technology and identify at least 10 security and/or privacy risks the technology has faced.

Answer 1

Answer:

One of the biggest social media giants has faced many such security and privacy risks in the past 3 years. 10 are listed below:

1. No one can forget the New Zealand attack on the mosque, and it was telecast live via it. And that is certainly a security risk. And if someone is able to stream live, the AI is in question definitely as this cannot be telecast.

2. Can you forget the various US shooting cases in the past 5 years? And many out of them where telecast lives on it. Again the AI, and the authentication is in question.

3. Many evils have many times advertised itself through it, and that is a security risk. This put up the question on the Data Scientists of the company.

4. It's a huge data on it, and many users have been able to misuse it, and that is a security risk. This put up the question mark on the application of the Big Data.

5. Once, the UK parliament questioned it to sell the secret data, and that was a privacy risk.

6. An Engineer was caught negotiating to sell secret users data to a third party, and that is a privacy risk as well as a question on management technology, as its possible now to check these kind of frauds.

7. Its accounts have been hacked many times, as well as millions of user-profiles, were stolen. This is a security and privacy risk.

8. Its data is still not safe as evils have proved they can break the authentication. However, it has reacted well, and they look like being a safe destination now.

9. Once, someone from Russia was caught collecting a lot of data from it. That was a security and privacy risk. And surely if someone is uploading a lot of complicated and confidential data, must be checked through proper AI implementation.

10. In India too there have been claims that a lot of personal information during elections 2014 was sold. That was a security and data risk. And the data scientists were proved vulnerable again. Its quite sure hence, a lot of work has to be done in Data Science and Artificial intelligence still.

However, its owner is one of the finest souls on earth. He donated all his money when he was blessed with a child. Some out of his team cheated, and else some technology failure or the huge amount of data was the reason for the fault. However, other companies are also facing such problems. And hence, he cannot be blamed for this. And the company now definitely has recovered from the nightmare that they faced in the past 3 years.
