pick one of the articles and write a response to it
IT security personnel need to not only know what actions we need to implement, we need to understand why we need to take them and well as the any related background topics – we also need to be aware of current events as they relate to Cybersecurity
Your assignment is to pick one of the articles and write a response to it. This is not a major writing assignment. It doesn’t have to be long – a page should suffice. It should have a short summary of the article as well as what you take away from it. It should be written so that someone who has not read the article would understand what it was about and what your perspective is on the subject.
I’m sure I don’t have to mention it, but I would be remiss if I didn’t: As with every assignment I will give, do not cut and paste information from other sources – I always want your view and your words. If you quote the article (or any other source) – especially if it is a direct quote – ensure you cite it properly.

Summary of the Article
Due to the fast changing technology, it has become possible to have smart cars that collect data about one’s driving habits. Moreover, technology makes it possible to remotely control a car such remotely honking, unlocking the car with a phone and even determining its exact location. However, when such a car is sold to another person, it still continues to be possible for the car to be controlled by the previous owner and this is a major course of concern. Even after clearing all the personal information or doing a factory reset before selling it, controlling it still remains possible.
