Abstract: After the Industrial Revolution, big industries and factories came into being and the amount of information i.e. data increased tremendously and hence it became very difficult to keep track of them. Therefore, the need to have a system of database which can be used to keep track of the data that has variables of different types. The evolution of such data acquisition system is traced, the present system in practice is discussed and the future scope of improvement is realized. Today these systems are mostly web based so there is a big security threat which needs to be addressed. This paper highlights the existing solutions and proposes some unique methods to increase the security of Data Acquisition systems.
