security is not something to overlook. Be it locally or on a global stage it will always be very necessary. Before even getting to the online security system, we can even talk of offline security demands. In short, there is no place you will go to without seeing security personnels. And I hope you know that you are one of them.
Do you care less about your home? Of course not, you TRY to keep the Windows and doors shut when due. check here and there and most times it is not mainly for physical theft purposes.
Even animals can trespass if you don't watch over it. appliances or connections can falter and it is your on guard responsibility that will bring the necessary quick solution. In short, the entire reason of existence is tagged to security, you are trying to secure something.
Moving away from that, the Internet is becoming a global home. Many activities are going on here; meetings, study, research, debates and we can keep counting. One of the current TOP concerns has been the issue of security pertaining to how it has dominated the world of finance.
Trillions worth of transactions going on daily also send a message; ‘those that can crack the codes get to keep the money’. You can call it transaction alteration or a bypass. Whatever be the case, unethical people are too real to look away from.
There were days where exporters and importers had heart attacks when ships sank in the middle of the ocean. The online presence is nothing less or even more SWIFT in sinking if you become careless. Personally, I have this privacy and security instinct.

Maybe I should turn my attention to cyber security but I am considering how cumbersome the demands will be. It was something I was discussing with a friend some weeks ago at the study center.
His career of study is cyber security; ‘ a hot cake career indeed but very time consuming especially if you are to work with secret agents’. How did I even get here? Oh! I wanted to discuss the current weak security processes I saw.
People went to remit their phone and personal belongings and get number tags that are hand written since it was the criteria to get access to where we were entering. With so many people remitting, what if, just what if someone decides to personally hand-write and brings it back to get what was not actually his?
Have they never had such experiences here before? I had to ask because I was actually concerned about my mobile phone I was handing over. On the other hand, I also felt such has not been rampant and shouldn't even be NOW that I am around because I won't want to hear any made up stories. Nevertheless, from my end, I felt they should have at least stepped up. A tag number plus a passport attached to your belongings would have made much sense.
To conclude, let me add, security is no longer safe with a factor authentication process. It becomes an easy pick. Where I am pointing to is the fact that both online or offline, we need to step up concerning security.
