For the first question, the statement that is NOT true about cybersecurity is:

"Cyber attacks can devastate large organizations, but individuals are largely unaffected."

This statement is not true because individuals can also be significantly affected by cyber attacks, such as through identity theft, financial fraud, or other types of personal data breaches.

For the second question regarding devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT), the correct answer is:

"An AM/FM radio without any Bluetooth or Internet connection capabilities."

This device is not connected to the Internet of Things because it lacks connectivity features that would allow it to exchange data or require an Internet connection. The other options involve devices that can connect to the Internet or have the capability to exchange data.

The Internet of Things is the network of devices with the ability to connect and exchange data.
