Several security concerns arise in the context of nanotechnology:
Data Breaches: Unauthorized access to sensitive data can lead to financial loss, reputational damage, and compromised safety. Intellectual Property Theft: Innovations in nanotechnology are valuable; hence, protecting intellectual property is paramount. Unauthorized Surveillance: Nanodevices can be used for covert surveillance, raising ethical and privacy issues. Malicious Nanodevices: There is a risk of nanodevices being used for malicious purposes, such as espionage or sabotage.
