Addressing Cyberbiosecurity Challenges in the Modern Era of Biotechnology and Artificial Intelligence

In an era where Artificial Intelligence and technology have fully integrated and bloomed in biological sciences, the threat of cyber-attacks inside the biological field has increased. With more dependence on bioinformatics, the internet, and outsourcing for data curation and storage, the development of advanced security measures has become mandatory. They safeguard biological data, systems, and procedures against illegal access, modification, or interference. The information collected for the following article was based on the results of previously published articles. These articles were searched using worldwide search engines and databases like Google Scholar, PubMed, and Google search engines. The search was done using different keywords like “Cyberbiosecurity,” “Biosecurity,” “Artificial Intelligence,” and “Biotechnology.” To protect biological systems, data, and infrastructure from cyber-attacks, a wide range of techniques, protocols, and technologies must be included in the emerging discipline of cyberbiosecurity. Robust cyberbiosecurity measures become more and more necessary as biotechnology advances quickly, incorporating digital technologies into many areas of biological research, industry, and healthcare. The lack of infrastructure for cyberbiosecurity worldwide puts the biological and scientific research community at high risk of attack. This could hinder data availability, research validity, and the development of biotechnology, biosecurity, and science. Although cyberbiosecurity is still a new part of biosecurity, its importance must be addressed in this era of increasing technology and internet dependence in biology and medical research.
