Most smart appliances have an accompanying application. Those applications are available on iOS and android. (Samsung's washer and dryer application is working on only iOS and Samsung's Galaxy mobile devices, not the rest of the Android devices.) There are some examples of using iOS to control the smart appliances 1. LG Smart ThinQ LFX31995ST LG Smart ThinQ app will tell you the internal temperatures of both the refrigerator and freezer, and whether it's on energy-saving mode or not. You can make grocery lists and automatically update your inventory once you've checked an item off the list. Also, you can search for recipes on the fridge based on what your fridge has in stock. 2.

Bluetooth Low Energy: Allows connected devices to communicate with each other while keeping the energy consumption of the devices at a very low level. The transaction should take place without GPS, other apps running, or even without a phone signal. PayPal Beacon: A small hardware device that runs on its own Wi-Fi, plugs into an outlet and serves as a beacon to other devices. It updates itself and the storekeeper doesn't have to touch it at all. It will track your location according to privacy issues. It is completely up to you whether you accept or decline Beacon when you enter the store. A hands free check in payment device.

Da Woon November 1st  Describe the IT system

This article tells us the air traffic controller (ATC) which helps us to have safe fly. ATC has access to sophisticated radar systems that provide an overview of the airspace they control, and they have communication tools to coordinate flight paths with the air crew. When the aircraft travel at higher speed than common modes of transport, the time available for pilots to react to a dangerous situation can be quite short. And ATC helps to aircraft approaching an airfield carefully and it checks the weather conditions for prevent pilots can't see other aircraft. ATC uses radar systems positioned at ATC facility to get a real time overview of the aircraft flying in the airspace they control. Many types of radar equipment are served for traffic on the ground. Primary Surveillance Radars (PSR) - The radar sends a directed pulse into the atmosphere, and when that pulse encounters an object it gets reflected back to the radar station. The bearing of the object with respect to the radar station and its approximate distance can be calculated by this. The radar is typically enclosed in a dome to protect it from adverse weather. Secondary Surveillance Radars (SSR) - the Secondary Surveillance Radar listens for messages from the aircraft's transponder. The radar rotates about the vertical axis, but transmits a specific signal on 1030 MHz. This signal is subsequently received by the aircraft's onboard transponder, which responds with a reply on 1090 MHz. SSR Modes - There are different modes of interrogation that compliant transponders respond to. A - The transponder responds with its squawk code, a unique identifier for the aircraft assigned by ATC comprising of four octal numbers. This code enables ATC to differentiate between the various aircraft being monitored, though it can also be used to discretely communicate the existence of an emergency situation onboard the aircraft. C - the transponder responds with the aircraft's pressure altitude, which is the altitude ab

1. Identify the area of impact the scenario relates to. Business and employment, Politics and Government 2. Identify the main stakeholders to the IT system. Politicians, Large Business owners, Victims 3. Identify one ITGS social/ethical concern in the article Surveillance / Privacy 4. Describe ITGS terminology and systems. The main IT system in this situation is the use of the evolving hardware that is customized to best fit the various situations that need to infiltrate a certain amount of security. The new spy devices today are integrated into everyday devices such as pens and glasses so that it is hard to track and sensor while going through security checks. 5. If possible, describe a solution to the concern (issue). Having the government and users agree to sign contracts which only allow certain amounts of digital spy equipment to be produced, and while shipment, if any equipment was found to be not authorized and legitimate to pay a large amount of fine to prevent further disuse of the equipment. Since most of the devices require some sort of signaling in order to spy, having new security checks based on lens reflection as well as machine signal waves can increase security because it would be easier to sensor such devices.

The security of the users' sensitive information is at risk when users click on spam links no matter from what source, from e-mails (which are decreasing now) to Twitter tweet links. By clicking onto these harmful links, users set free spam that can infiltrate the user's hard drive in search for sensitive information for example bank account numbers. 4.Describe the relationship of the main stakeholders to the IT system. ---The main stakeholder will be hackers and people who are using e-mail and social networking. The relationships between them are, normally hackers used spam mail to spend virus or hack their computer with Trojan horse, but as the email security develop hackers slowly moved to social network which is Facebook, and other many programs. They know that people are currently using social networking a lot and their privacy is open and they could easily get people's email too. Therefore by using Koobface, they could hack people's computer and information 5.

List and explain each of the ways suggested to provide protection from this type of security breach. Change the password. This is very crucial, if you've used the same password for every other accounts, because it means that anyone can open any account that belongs to you. An easy way to make a complicated password that's fairly easy to remember, is to create a meaningful sentence and take the initials. 'I was born on July 30th 1994' = Iwboj3094 Check your credit reports. This allows you to check and activities that is carried out with your credit card. You can also set your fraud alert.

Two passenger who are from Iranian used fake passport to board on the flight 370. Malaysiann home minister Datuk Seri Ahmad said that using Interpol's Stolen and Lost Travel Documents (SLTD) database might have slowed down the process of immigration checks at airport counters. He said the country's immigration's equipment couldn't handle the global database of 40.2 million lost passport. Later on Interpol fired back by saying that do not blame on technology or Interpol. SLTD database takes just seconds to reveal whether a passport is listed, with recent test providing results in 0.2 second. Also Interpol mention that US using more than 230 million times, UK using more than 140 million times, UAE using more than 100 million times, Singapore using 29 million times, none of the countries have complained about the time.

Explain the ways these networks are being hacked. How could you know if your facebook account had been hacked? all jan 17 jang

Explain the ways these networks are being hacked. It is explained in the article that these networks are being hacked by using the stole credentials to log into the user's Facebook account. When the hackers logs into the Facebook account, it is used to transmit malicious links to other people such as friends. Friends would be a trustworthy person so the link would be visited. This would increase the speed of the malware's speed. Also, some users use the same password for many accounts which can be used by ill-intentioned people on the web. How could you know if your facebook account had been hacked? For you to know if your Facebook account had been hacked, users should run an anti-virus software to check and get rid of any malware that is hacking your account.

Describe NoSQL and its purpose. Explain how it is used differently than MySQL. M12 jan30 az

Describe NoSQL and its purpose. NoSQL is a highly scalable and reliable non-relational databases designed to maintain high performance and to be highly cost efficient for workloads of any scale, from the smallest to the largest internet-scale applications. It is also used to build a new kind of database for "unstructured" information that comes spilling off the Internet with each passing second. It is capable of handling large amounts of data du to the fact that they use flash storage rather than traditional spinning disks. These solid-state drives can provide single-digit millisecond response times. Explain how it is used differently than MySQL. MySQL database is a relational database that stores data in neat rows and columns, and it's designed to run on a single machine, while NoSQL database can store data in a more flexible way and is designed to scale across a very large number of machines. "SQL databases are like automatic transmission and NoSQL databases are like manual transmission. Once you switch to NoSQL, you become responsible for a lot of work that the system takes care of automatically in a relational database system. Similar to what happens when you pick manual over automatic transmission. Secondly, NoSQL allows you to eke more performance out of the system by eliminating a lot of integrity checks done by relational databases from the database tier. Again, this is similar to how you can get more performance out of your car by driving a manual transmission versus an automatic transmission vehicle." http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2559411/sql-mysql-vs-nosql-couchdb
