in deutscher SpracheCyber-Security is becoming a hot topic. In 2020 the number of devices connected to the internet – PC’s, smart phones, machines in banks, hospitals, industrial plants, public offices and also private homes – is expected to increase to about 20 billion. The proper functioning of these devices can be influenced by cyber-attacks. Sensitive content may end up in the hands of unauthorized persons. Is cyberspace really secure? Moreover, in social networks for example, the amount of intentionally shared personal data is increasing. Sensitive data are stored in the cloud. On top of all that, ACTA is meant to control data traffic. Is this the beginning of the transparent user?
