Day10:
这一篇单词有点多,没有听笃师讲解前有点云里雾里。互联网安全也是当下一个很热很热的话题。阅读这篇文章的时候就在想,现在做一个盗窃的人都不能靠所谓的蛮力。大部分人都是靠支付宝微信进行交易,上个学期老师讲到互联网金融安全就说到支付宝有一种保险是支付宝账户安全险,提到之前仅有一例因为支付宝盗刷,刚好购买了这个保险得到赔偿,记得当时问老师这种事情容易发生吗,老师说这种情况基本上很难发生,支付宝的安全性还是很强大的。但自己还是买了这个保险。现在也有很多线上交易通过银行卡支付,这个时候银行卡安全性就很重要。感觉身边听到很多的就是银行卡盗刷等问题,听到支付宝微信什么的很少。银行卡的安全性相对弱一点,但是随着线上交易的普及,安全性成了大部分人首要关注。如果真的不放心,可以购买支付宝的银行卡安全险。安全问题不能说完全避免,但是会越来越完善,当然黑客的水平也会比之前现在高很多。政府监管可能只是起到一个辅助作用,如果真的上升到政府的层面,估计就是市场已经完全不能处理相关安全问题了。始终相信,在市场的作用下,互联网安全系统会更完善。
