Security Issues Concerning Cryptosystems Students Name Institution Name Instructor Name Date Introduction In industry technology, cryptography refers to a technology that has the power to perform significant functions in discoursing specific forms of data susceptibility to attack. It involves computer system security together with its operation network safety which functions towards accomplishing common subjects. Cryptography in the technology industry is used to secret information from attack by unofficial groups, mostly during the exchange of information through entities when it is most unprotected to interception (Deb, 2007) . It ensure that data is secure and confidential to all activities in the technology industry. 2 Security Threats To Technology Industry Some of the common security threats in the technology industry include; Privilege escalation which entails structured software activities that in many times have problems that can be exploited and have the power to access data significantly from sites protected from unauthorized users or applications and cause damages. A virus is the other threat which involves computer software which has the power to copy and cause problems to other devices. The trojan threat also known as Trojan horses are structured activities that aim at authorizing hidden hackers to enter into a computer and affect services and cause data issues Veronica (Henry,2010) . The bugs in the privilege escalation threat act by tolerating approach to specific resources with significant rights that can avoid security measures. The virus threat is transferred via interconnected networks or sharing devices like USB and portable means. The main role of adware is to improve the focus on the demonstration of web advertisements. 3 Cont, Spyware is a threat that can enter into a computer device via downloaded software and collect significant user data by tracing the internet functions and transferring that to attacking components. Adware is a threat that functions just like spyware by monitoring individuals activities in a computer through internet scanning actions. Impacts of security threats In the technology industry the threats mentioned above have led to impacts like; Social media attacks where social attackers are influencing social platforms as a way to spread risks known as water holing. They also cause a lack of encryption which is essential for guarding confidential data. The threats also cause outdated security software making them unable to prevent information from attacks. They also cause inadequate security technology with weak security. Countermeasure Some of the fundamental countermeasures the technology industry uses include; Ensuring strong password management Employing firm security guards Applying access management around an operating system The sector also involves the implementation of important input/output systems known as BIOS password Additionally, it also offers security awareness t.
