Cyber Virus Infection On Human Body !

 A young British scientist Dr. Mark Gasson from the University of Reading, truly is the first human carrying a computer virus inside his body.He claimed to being the first human infected by a computer virus after he embedded an electronic RFID chip in his hand, reported China’s Xinhua news agency on May 26,2010.
The implanted chip gives Dr. Gasson to access lab facilities without needing a key or magnetic card, and allows him to be the only person who can access his mobile phone while it is locked to all others.
But he went so far as to infect that chip with a virus, wanting to test whether or not it will be possible to infect other chips in the system with a proverbial slight of hand.

The results shows he succeeded to infect his PC, that the virus in the chip in his hand was able to migrate to the desktop computer.
On why someone would want to do that, Dr Gasson’s reasons is the awareness that more and more people have chip-based electronic parts in their bodies – a pacemaker for example – and that we will have to learn all we can about how such vital instruments may be impacted by other electronic devices.
“This type of technology has been commercialised in the United States as a type of medical alert bracelet, so that if you’re found unconscious you can be scanned and your medical history brought up.”
Also, he thinks that implanted chips, like we now use them for dogs and cats, will most likely find their way into the human body in one way or another.
In the future, Dr Gasson scientist said there is the distinct possibility that in a security obssessed world, chip implants may make passports and credit cards obsolete in the future
