Abstract
Background and Aim: The distance between the dramatic changes in scientific findings in the world, known as the Industrial Revolution, is decreasing, and with a deeper solidarity in the cyber and biological sectors, the Fourth Industrial Revolution is at the peak of its evolution. The present study with a descriptive-analytical method, in search of understanding this increasing correlation and its consequences, tries to examine security threats in the bio-cyber sector, turning cyberspace into an undeniable platform in various fields of biological sciences and introduce this increasingly dependent situation as a serious challenge to science and technology at the peak of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Materials and Methods: This research is of theoretical type and the research method is descriptive-analytical. The method of data collection is library and has been done by referring to documents, books and articles.
Ethical Considerations: In order to organize this research, while respecting the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed.
Findings: With the advent of computers in the field of information and the admirable advancement in the field of artificial intelligence, as much as information storage and processing has become easier, information theft and misuse of data has also been facilitated. Unauthorized intrusion or access by hackers for various purposes indicates the fact that the vulnerabilities and the possibility of its occurrence are very high and the title of winning and losing governments in the field of bio-cyber according to the ability to protect such data will become a reality in the not too distant future.
Conclusion: Bio-Cyber threats and crimes can play a crucial role in the vital substructures of any society. Bio-cybercrime is considered as a serious threat to the social order in this sector. Therefore, bio-cyber security is of great importance while maintaining security between new biological technologies such as artificial biology as well as DNA and cyberspace.
