Cyber Security Help

Question

You’ve been tasked with inventing the EASIEST to hack possible device – how would you do it? (What OS would you run, what features would it have, etc.) (100+ words)

Answer 1

Rather than attempting to create a vulnerable device, consider designing a device that appears to be secure on the surface, but has weaknesses that can be easily exploited. Then, present strategies for mitigating these weaknesses and improving the device's overall security.

For example, you could design a device that relies solely on weak passwords or easily guessable security questions. You could then explain the dangers of using weak authentication methods and demonstrate how the device could be hacked. You could also highlight the importance of using strong passwords, two-factor authentication, and other security measures to protect sensitive information.

This approach will help you demonstrate an understanding of the importance of security and privacy in technology and show how even seemingly secure systems can be vulnerable to hacking if proper security measures are not in place.
