How did they attack?
- By using emails that are attatched with viruses, they attacked Norway's industrial secrets and information using their hacked network. However, none of the anti-malware software detect these emails.
What was stolen?
- Industrial drawings, user names, passwords, contracts negotiation and documents were stolen from the attack.
Describe a possible solution
- The whole attack was from "viruses." Which means that the company should feel necessary to have another stronger and higher quality of anti-malware software. When it detects things properly and more clearly, that means more possibility of defending the attacks that might happen in the future.
BRUSSLES can't block users from downloading illegally because that would breach the EU rules. SABAM asked the court in Belgian to force scarlet to install a device to prevent users from downloading copyrighted work. Scarlet then had to install the device.

Why are batteries environmentally hazardous?
Because lithium batteries contain metal that will spontaneously ignite if exposed to air. Also, the negative and positive poles on some lithium batteries are close together, leading more easily to short circuit which can cause fire.
Explain the issue of safety versus cost.
The issue of safety here is that if the lithium batteries are improperly package, damage or have manufacturing defects, they can short circuit and ignite. Overheated lithium batteries can blow the lids off steel shipping containers and damage a plane. Once a battery catches fire, the heat can set off other batteries. Obama administration proposed rules but they are opposed by many because they say the rules would cost them hundreds of millions of dollars in added packaging, paperwork and training for employees. It will also mean delays in getting medical equipment to patients and would drive up the cost of shipments.

In my opinion it would be Ipad, but that's only if you're too intense about the aesthetics of Apple's iPad. I am sure that many people are obsessed with the look and how famous Apple products are.
