Case Study (Conclusion)

To sum up, the lacks in cybersecurity, forced by Chinese government can be a cause of harm for citizens, which are aware of any danger. It was not the first iCloud hack in 2014, however, attack on iCloud in China was more complicated than this from September 2014, when naked celebrities’ photos leaked, because one of the vital reasons was low-level in cybersecurity caused by using "The Great Firewall" by Chinese government and other factors such as forcing less-protected technologies. It shows, how politics aspects can participate in daily life and safety of the biggest society at the world. Additionally, this incident shows that, even one of the biggest IT company can have a trouble with providing safety to their customers.

SSL Cryptography bases two types of encription, which is Asymmetric Encryption and Symmetric Encryption (Johansen, 2020). Asymetric Encription: This type of encryption is the most popular one, which is using usually. In this technology, client and server to connect use two different keys, public and private. Public key is using only for encryption. It means, anyone can use this key to encrypt the message. Private key is secret and is using only for decryption.   Asymmetric encryption (Author's work) Resources: Johansen, A., 2020. What Is Encryption And How Does It Protect Your Data? .

Opinion about safety (Survey Analysis)

Image
In my questionnaire, I asked people about their feeling of internet safety. The question was "How safe do you feel with using internet services?" Author's work, 1 - not safe, 5 - very safe         As we can see, the majority of the group is feeling safe on the Internet. Only 6 of the responders are feeling completely safe, which is negative, because they may be less focused during using the Internet, which can cause an opportunity to be charmed by hackers. Development of cybersecurity technologies is possibly a reason, why nobody feels completely unsafe on the Internet. Author's work, 1 - not safe, 5 - very safe   However, the general feeling of safety on the Internet is not related to using online payments. As we can see in the diagram, more people are worried about their safety in case of online payments.
