Case One: Is Business Ready for Wearable Computers�

4 of 21

1.Wearable Technology examples�

1. Owlet dream duo 2.Beato smart glucometer 3.TaskWatch

The Owlet dream duo is a technology through which a parent can monitor a child's oxygen levels and heart rate by looking into the app. A sock-like attachment secures the monitor to the baby's foot and links to a base station that illuminates green when everything is in order (Owlet, 2020). The second technology is the Beato smart glucometer, this technology uses a strip that can be connected to any part of the body and then connected to a smartphone to read glucose levels in diabetics individuals. Your smartphone can become a useful blood glucose management tool with the BeatO Smartphone Glucometer. The BeatO Smartphone Glucometer connects to the phone and when you take a reading, BeatO's Certified Medical Experts continuously monitor it and regularly direct you to various lifestyle management strategies in order to successfully control your blood sugar levels (BeatO, 2020). The last wearable technology is TaskWatch which is commonly used in companies to help employee stay away from distractions caused by social media through mobile phones, TaskWatch maintains employees connected and hands-free to conduct and operate business systems (TaskWatch, 2022)

4.Ethical/security issue of big data�

Respecting patient autonomy

Respecting patients' autonomy entails recognizing that those who are capable of making decisions about their own treatment have the right to do so, even if those choices run counter to those of their doctors (Laudon and Laudon, 2020). However, the patient can be educated about the several treatment options that are accessible to them, but the healthcare provider cannot decide for them. This implies that a nurse or a physician must involve the patients in the decision-making process that takes place in a healthcare setting, while also ensuring that he does not compromise the efficiency level that he is supported to fulfill in the clinical procedures (Laudon and Laudon, 2020). However, striking a balance between respecting people's individuality and ensuring that work gets done effectively is not always easy, particularly in high-stakes circumstances.

1.Mobile technology definition

Technology that can be used anywhere by a user
Portable two way communication

2.Importance of telecommunication and mobile technology

Connects various people and systems irrespective of location
Enable improving of company strategies.
Enables people to explore information
Made shopping easy

(Loudon and Loudon, 2020)

Mobile technology refers to any type of technology that can follow the user wherever they go. It is made up of mobile devices that are capable of communicating in both directions, computing equipment, and the networking technology that links all of them together (Laudon and Laudon, 2020) . At the moment, the most prominent examples of mobile technology are internet-capable gadgets such as smartphones, tablets, and even watches. Telecommunication and mobile technology attends to our primordial requirements (Laudon and Laudon, 2020). . It enables us the capacity to interact and communicate with others which is an essential component in the functioning of contemporary society. Telecommunication has developed into the basis of today's digital environment, making it possible for households, communities, corporations, and governments to connect with one another and share information in an effortless manner (Laudon and Laudon, 2020). .

3.Mobile strategy in Google, Apple and Facebook�

Google's mobile strategies are Location, instant search, and cloud technology.
Apple mobile technology is to make technology unrelated
Facebook's mobile strategy is providing desktop-unique encounters

(Jena et al., 2020)

Locational data, mobile search, and cloud computing form the basis of Google's mobile strategy. Furthermore, moving ahead, all of its software will work in both desktop and mobile platforms (Jena et al., 2020). Apple acknowledged that although smartphones had not yet fully realized their functional potential, they had the potential to represent a completely new class of computers. Therefore, they made the decision to grow by bringing the future to pass, which required starting a new company. But a business's incarnation of an idea for a different economy, a different technology, or a different society is always what makes the future happen (Jena et al., 2020). Facebook aims to build experiences that can't be had on laptops or desktop computers as it works harder to become a mobile-focused business. The primary focus of Google's mobile strategy is on ads, through which businesses are given the opportunity to display information about their goods and services on Google.

1.Cloud Data Security threats and Solutions�

Data breach Misconfiguration

Data leakage System Vulnerabilities

Solution-Firewall Solution-Disable debugging

A data breach occurs when a security incident compromises the privacy, accessibility, or integrity of data that an company or is responsible for causing leakage of private information which could be disastrous for the company’s consumers (Loudon and Loudon, 2020). This can be solved by using firewall which prevents unauthorized persons from accessing the system. When security measures are improperly set or left insecure, systems and data are put at risk. This is known as a security misconfiguration. In essence, a misconfiguration could be caused by any incomplete configuration modifications, computer settings, or technological issues with any of a system endpoints' components(Loudon and Loudon, 2020). This problem can be solved by disabling debugging procedures to avoid the wrong people doing it and causing misconfiguration.
