What is Business 4.0

This study investigates the cyber vulnerabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics in the nail care industry, mainly using nail-painting robot technology, and identifies other cybersecurity concerns. The wide use of evolving technologies across sectors is not a new phenomenon; however, the utilization of robotics in nail salons is a recent development, with its initial implementation less than three years ago. The possibility of unauthorized access to or control of the robots exists for industries that leverage these technological advancements. Despite limited public reporting on cyberattacks in nail salons, the increasing adoption of AI and robotics necessitates implementing proactive cybersecurity measures. Hackers exploit vulnerabilities before the weaknesses in technology are made known. Due to the human safety risks that robots can cause, financial implications, and the prospect of being targeted for malicious cyber activity, protecting the nail care industry through sound cybersecurity measures is imperative.
