The Dilemma of using a Information Technology

Nowadays technology is very necessary whether its for business purposes, educational, transactional or even for everyday life technology are also included. Over the years technology booming so fast, and some of us know how to use technology but some of us also forgot how to use it properly. Let me give you a little background, one of the popular technologies created is the information technology.

According to Information Technology Trends in 2019: “Information technology refers to anything related to computing technology. The Internet, for example, comes under the umbrella term IT. So does computer hardware, software, and networking.” and also Nature.com has the following definition of the term: “Information technology is the design and implementation of computer networks for data processing and communication.”, “`This includes designing the hardware for processing information and connecting separate components, and developing software that can efficiently and faultlessly analyze and distribute this data.” it means information technology is very important. But somehow, when you use the information technology you don’t know if your information is safe and sound.

Piracy and ransomware this two is somehow the problem in the information technology. First, the piracy or software piracy is an illegal copying or use of software.

As stated by Business Software Alliance (BSA), “About 36% of all software in current use is stolen. Software piracy causes significant lost revenue for publishers, which in turn results in higher prices for the consumer.”

And lastly, the ransomware where the hackers try to access your security program to control and get a confidential information.

According to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has observed an increase in ransomware attacks across the world. "Ransomware is a type of malicious software, or malware, designed to deny access to a computer system or data until a ransom is paid. Ransomware typically spreads through phishing emails or by unknowingly visiting an infected website." 

In ransomware the hackers are doing a wise tactic to get a huge amount of money from you, they manipulate how much money you will give to them to stop spreading your confidential information and also the other people in the organization use this they will pay the hackers to hijack or access the security program of the other organization so they will know what was their plan.

Data Protection and Privacy : Customers trust is important in every business. Under the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Data Privacy Act, all organizations are required to appoint a Data Protection Officer (“DPO”). The Data Protection Officer shall be accountable for ensuring compliance with the appropriate data protection laws and regulations by Disini and Disini Law Office.To ensure the customers trust under REPUBLIC ACT NO. 10173. AN ACT PROTECTING INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL INFORMATION IN INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS IN THE GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR, CREATING FOR THIS PURPOSE A NATIONAL PRIVACY COMMISSION, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

For this problem, you need a tight security and an artificial intelligence for all the important information attach on your computer software. you can also use Firewalls to protect your information for being exposed to the public or getting hacked. And also make a difficult security program so the hackers will not able to access your computer program. If you are still doubting about your security program then you should hire a team so you can also monitor and see in actual what they're trying to imply in your computer program.
