3.1 Examples of security issues faced by public

There are various examples that can be considered as the misuse of drone by terrorists in the contemporary times. Some of these attacks are described as follows with respect to considered measures by terrorists with respect to technical development in the domain of drone technology.

2. Use of technologies in security issues faced by public and business for terrorist attacks with the use of remote-controlled drone

Enhanced chances of terror attacks in UK: In the year of 2015, the terrorists planned to proceed with the technically sound armed drone that was developed for managing various attacks and fulfilling terrorist planning (Burgess, 2017).

Warfare: America is using the drone technology from various critical point of views. Therefore, there are various other terrorist groups that are also harming the citizens of America. As per one of the evaluations done in the year of 2012, Obama found that the country has lost their soldiers and citizens in these attacks (Peter,  2017).

 Target of terrorists: Target of terrorists is becoming one strict issue that is making the countries weak with respect to various functional measures involved within the war functionalities (PressTV-‘US steps up drone attacks in Yemen, 2017). Therefore, these are concerned with respect to terrorist attacks and drones have been used as weapon for these wars.

Examples of security issues related to the public sector are provided in the previous part of the assignment. The security concerns with the corporate sectors are being elaborated as follows:

Secret monitoring: Secret monitoring is another threat to confidential data involved within the system architecture within any corporate sector (Hacking Drones Overview of the Main Threats, 2013). In contrast with these facts, unmanned aerial vehicles are considered for threat for USA and UK organizations that transfers their data for business perspectives.

Hacking issues: Hacking issues has concerned with organizational collaborations of America. Threats are concerned with respect to various aspects involved within the organizational databases (Hacking Drones Overview of the Main Threats, 2013). America, Afghanistan has faced various data hacking issues involved

There are various advantages of the drone technology with respect to various technological demands of users. In contrast with these facts, there are certain disadvantages of this particular technology. These disadvantages are being elaborated as follows:

Accuracy of reactions: There is lack of accuracy with respect to various advantageous situations available within technological era (Agrawal et al., 2015). In contrast with these facts, the reaction from the drone technology is not appropriate with respect to human eye.

Impossible flight actions: The flight actions are difficult for using camera and remote systems within technical measures. The drone technology provides effective measures for managing the flight actions for managing actions and operations within the technology.

Spying Measures: Spying is another aspect that is considered as the negative fact involved within the system architecture of the concerned drone technology (Bolos, 2015). The users and terrorists can easily monitor their operators and controlling heads with the help of drone technology.

3. Examples of security issues faced by public and business for terrorist attacks with the use of remote-controlled drone

Inappropriate recognition of footages: Drone technology most of time does not provide effective footages to the users. There may be various manipulations incorporated within these footages of the video recorders.

Drone technology is one of the most effective and approachable technical advancement for the technologically advanced scenarios. In contrast with these facts, there are various benefits of this technology over this contemporary decade. In spite of these technical advancements, there are various threats over this technical advancement (Evans et al., 2016). Therefore, these needs to be elaborated with respect to various impact analysis process. In addition to this, these potential impacts are being elaborated as follows:

Degradation of economic condition: Drone attacks and attacks with the help of this technology provides effective imbalance of economic conditions within concerned country.

Increased dangers over human life: Increased danger of life makes the residents weak and threatened with respect to these attacks (Kindervater, 2016).

Security threats over corporate and public domains: The security threats over corporate sectors are also impactful as there are securities and hacking issues exists over this technological advancement.

There are various impacts of drone attacks and drone technology over corporate and public life conditions. These impacts need to be resolved with respect to various aspects and conditions. Some of the resolution techniques are being elaborated as follows:

Implementation of hackdrone: Hackdrone is helpful in solving hacking issues being incorporated within the system architecture of drone technology (Culver, 2014). In contrast with these facts, there hackdrone prevents the hacking operations involved among the drone.

Implementation of Maldrone: The maldrone is nothing but the process of controlling the negatively impactful drones within the system architecture of drone manufacturing process (Evans et al., 2015). Maldrone devices allow the device manufacturer to control negative impactful situations.

IoT implementation: IoT implementation process is helpful in solving various critical perspectives as this technology provides the control over the drone manufacturing process. In contrast with these facts, the drone can be easily monitored and controlled with the help of IoT technology.

From the critical review of this assignment, this is found that drone technology and drone manufacturing process have great impact on the security and information threat perspectives from technologically advanced system architecture. I have found various limitations and negative impacts of the drone technology over contemporary issues related to drones. In contrast with these facts, security issues and security threats have noticed by me as one of the major limitation of this research process about drone technology. The approach of found from this research I have noticed that drone technologies are being utilized for harmful aspect to the public and corporate sector.

Ethical concern is very important for managing the effectiveness of the research process and methods used within this assignment. From the ethical point of view, it is found that the public and corporate sector is getting harmed by the drone attacks and misuse of drone technology (Smith, 2015). Therefore, in accordance with various ethical theories and perspectives, this aspect can be marked as unethical fact. As the drone attacks harm individual therefore, this is ethically wrong.

Conclusion

This can be concluded that the remote controlled drones are effective elements that are getting used by the terrorists while considering the security perspective of any business process and public. In contrast with these facts, this can be stated that from any situation of corporate structure or with respect to any nation’s security perspective. In contrast with these facts, this report is elaborating about the security issues involved within the corporate life and public usages that are harmed by the use of remote controlled drone by the terrorists among various areas of the world. This report is also providing various real life example cases that provide sufficient evidences to support the impact of this technology among users or terrorists.
