Preliminary Investigations on Subcutaneous Implantable Microchip Health and Security Risks

The main objective of this research project is to explore the behavioral aspects of the potential users of RSIM use with regard to health and security risks. It has been found that the importance of ethical reasons for implementing RSIM pattern increased by age. On the other hand, the social acceptance and the government requirements have no effects on the choice of the microchip implant. The study found that there is high likelihood of the subject accepting the microchip implant if it’s useful and the subject of older age. Subjects believed that the implantable microchip will never be secure for the identity protection. Furthermore, the older subjects the more probability that the subject will use the implantable microchips, if they had ownership of their own data. In fact, it was found that usefulness of RIMS is correlated with ownership of the data.
