The popularity of smart devices that collect and share data on user behaviour grows every year, and the number of such devices in households is forecast to rise steadily. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to present the attitudes of young consumers regarding the security of their data collected by smart devices, interconnected via the existing Internet infrastructure or other network technologies within the Internet of Things (IoT) systems. The paper was written based on both secondary and primary sources of information. Secondary sources were used to define the discussed issues related to the Internet of Things and the security of data collected by smart devices. Primary sources, on the other hand, offered direct evidence of the attitudes of young consumers on the security of such data. Direct research was carried out using an online survey carried out in 2021 on a sample of 588 consumers aged 18–34 living in Poland. The results show that more than half of the respondents pay great attention to where the data collected by the devices used in their households is kept and whether such data is safe. In spite of such declarations, more than half of those surveyed have no knowledge about the level of the security of such data. The respondents agreed with the statement that consumers accepted the uncertainty related to the loss of control over their personal data collected by smart devices more quickly than the risk involved in becoming disconnected from them.

In this present study we have traced the genesis of control engineering in the scope of mechanical engineering and then some analysis on its recent developments, their increasing need and how this particular subject has evolved machines functioning nowadays specifically its standard of education in India. We have probed this field right from its starting. We have examined how it is required as a proper course for mechanical engineering students and in which order the evolution in this field is expanding and, at the same time, its level of education in India and where we are in confronting the business need in terms of quality and quantity of students. The point is that it holds significance in near future. Over the years control engineering has been expanding its perimeter in various branches such mechanics, electronics, instrumentation, electrics, chemistry, aeronautics, mechatronics, etc. As a result, numerous interactive feedback structure from the output and the ability to alter the input accordingly have given the world a new era of equipment commonly termed as “smart devices” which have changed the lifestyle of common people. Furthermore, its various applications in different industry have also favored its development. So, some views from the industry prospective have been included to find out about the skills that are required for aspiring and practicing control engineers having mechanical engineering background.

Nowadays we are living in the fever of using mobile devices for everything. They changed our every day life radically. The infiltration of new possibilities follows usually the Gartner’s Hype cycle and that is how it finds its place in education. We all, who work in the field of informatics education have a d uty to make experiments how to use it up in in our teaching process. We review the present situation in public education and in vocational trainings as well and try to find the points where we can deliver new technologies into our practice.
