The future brings greater technological innovations—but with it, larger attack surfaces. With the capability to connect and share data with such ease, everyone must do their part to stay secure.
Smart technology, often referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT), are embedded into devices, vehicles, and even homes. Potential security risks posed by these devices may be difficult to address without first understanding how they interconnect, and what type of data is collected, stored, and shared.
Cloud storage—also referred to as "the cloud,"—involves storing data online rather than on a computer hard drive. Data can be accessed by any device and by multiple people simultaneously, which makes cloud storage an invaluable tool for research and collaboration.
