...Tiffane Smalls March 29, 2014 Unit 2 Research Paper Saturday AM NT2640 IS MOBILE BACKUP SAFE? My article of choice this week talks about how unsafe mobile backups and backup services are today. This article was written by a Robert Lemos on October 9, 2013. He elaborates on the fact that today there are more and more backup services being used, than there were back in the day. Almost every time we access a new site, or download an application we are asked to backup our information. While this opportunity is very helpful to most people who have lots of information they want to store on different devices. Businesses are becoming more cautious of the fact that all this information is at risk, when stored through third party services. Today, almost all companies 94 percent have worries about employees mixing personal and business data on their mobile devices, according to a survey published by online-backup provider EVault in January. ( Lemos et al., 2013) What people do not know is that a lot of data being stored in one place, becomes very attractive to attackers, and hackers. While allowing these sites to have access to this information, you are allowing them access to other things like your location, additional pictures, voice recordings, and business documents that u have on your device. This becomes a very easy way for people to steal your personal information, and possibly your identity. It’s even worse that you can’t tell whether the information is stolen or not...

...Uses of Technology in the Classroom The internet has become a useful tool for gathering information and teaching students, but with all technology there are safety precautions that we must set-up to teach our children how to be safe. It is the responsibility of the parents and the teachers to inform students about internet safety. “Keeping students safe while online cannot be left to filters and firewalls placed on the network …these filters do not catch everything” (Andrew, 2009) Since the internet is relatively new technology many students are “far ahead of their parents in terms of Internet usage” and many parents have limited experience on the use of computers much less the knowledge they need to educate their children on its safety (Lemos, 2006). It has become necessary to offer parents information “about internet security, such as what Facebook privacy settings their children should have” in order to keep children safe (Butler, 2010). Technology aids such as “filters, firewalls, activity reports and spyware are all ways that you can keep an eye on more than one child at the same time” (Feldman, 2007). A filtering program allows teachers to enter types of sites that are inappropriate and the software blocks these sites from loading so that students are unable to access them. Firewalls help to protect a child from the repercussions of giving out personal information on the internet by blocking outsiders from being able to access this information. In addition teachers and...

...BSA375 Service Request SR-rm-022, part 2 Analyze to Design Riordan Manufacturing HR System Riordan Manufacturing has submitted a service request as they are trying to move from an outdated system to a more modern version. Currently, the data is stored manually in their headquarters in San Jose and this needs to be fixed, there will be several modules places into a single system that can be accessed from the rest of their locations countrywide. Companies should not try to quickly consolidate data center operations (Lemos, 2009) and based on this the next application architecture and process design will be recommended. System Data and Application Architecture The current system is not properly set, therefore the data access is unsafe and hard to access as there is much of data stored and only accessible to few people, the new system that will be put in place will receive all the imported data and then classify it into different levels of access, restrictions will be put in place so the data is only accesed by the people who is supposed to. ADP the company that will send the checks will be able to access information such as hours worked reported in timecards and pay rate but information such as insurance, training and certifications will not be available to them. When required direct managers can access most of the data but a log will be put in place so each time the personal file is accessed there is proof of who accessed the information and for what reason...

...Riordan Manufacturing is seeking a new system that will consolidate all of their Human Resource related data. Currently, the data that will be a part of the new system is spread out through different departments of the company. The new system will allow this data to be saved in a central location, while only allowing viewing access to certain employees. The access will be much the same as currently in place, but located in a single system. Lastly, the implementation of the new system will be not be a quick process, because it would be safer the company completes a test run to few end users before completely releasing the system. Companies should not try to quickly consolidate data center operations (Lemos, 2009). System Data The data that will be input into the system is anything of which relates to the Human Resources Department daily functionalities. Currently, much of the data that is consolidated is input into an HRIS system. This system will transfer the same processes and data into the new system. The data/process that will be transferred from this system include pay rate, personal and organizational data, hire and seniority dates, available vacation time, training and development documentation, and personal exemptions. Any changes made to the aforementioned data can be requested by department managers through the new system. Other areas of the company will have to include data into the new system. The processes they utilize to keep this data will be...

...increase in minimum wage will result in an increase in unemployment amongst minimum wage earners; this is due to the price floor the minimum wage creates for some firms, ultimately leading to the debate about minimum wage creating job losses due to firms cutting labour, and increasing unemployment. This theory does hold true in a state of ‘ceteris paribus’, but in reality where nothing is held constant, this theory is argued amongst economists. As highlighted by Lemos (2004); “firms typically respond to minimum wage increases not by reducing production and employment, but by raising prices” [4], with Strobl and Walsh [5] further highlighting that the traditional theory only applies to specific homogenous groups of low skilled workers within highly specific industries, and that the implication of the traditional theory ‘is not representative of the impact of a minimum wage across all industries’. As is evident in the domestic automobile manufacturing industry, traditional economic theory has held true. Given the contrast Lemos, Strobl & Walsh have with economic theory, this highlights that from a firm level policy standpoint, the decision to make labour adjustments lies with...

...Name Course Tutor Date Ancient Greek Heroes vs. Modern Heroes Introduction The word hero brings to mind different things to different people, since people tend to have different concepts of heroism. This is particularly the case with regard to the concept of heroes in ancient and modern societies. As times have changed, the definition of heroes has also changed, in keeping with the changes in the modern society. However, ancient and modern heroes do share some similarities, which act as the basis of heroism regardless of one’s perspective. In view of this, a hero can be described as a courageous person, who deliberately sets out to conquer obstacles for the benefit others or one who performs extra ordinary feats. The aim of this paper is to compare and contrast ancient Greek heroes with modern heroes, for the purpose of understanding both concepts of heroism. Differences There a few differences between modern and ancient Greek heroes, one of them being the religious background of the ancient Greek heroes. In Greek mythology, heroes were usually religious figures, specifically demigods. They were usually born from liaisons between mortal and immortal parents. These heroes were favored by the gods, hence were able to accomplish supernatural tasks, which were beyond the abilities of normal men. Hercules’ mother for instance was a mortal, while his father Zeus was a Greek god, who disguised himself as her husband. As a result, Hercules was a demigod, and was able to accomplish...

...Scope of Topic: Is a $15 minimum wage in large American cities fair to the affected businesses? On Nov 2014, San Francisco has voted to raise the minimum wage to $15 over a course of the next three years. This article intends to analyze the impact of the decision on businesses. The ripple effects of the wage hike are felt not just businesses that employ blue-collar workforce but also by larger corporations and the US economy as a whole. The wage hike is primarily aimed at providing economic stimulus to blue-collar workforce, who must live off their hourly wage. The article will be segmented into two parts – Fair and Unfair. Reasons that highlight both standpoints will be listed out and discussed in each segment. Fair to US Businesses Reduces employment and training costs. Employee turnover, ranging from 50 to 200%, is a serious problem among many businesses that employ a major chunk of the blue-collar workforce. (For example, an employer with annual turnover of 100% means that the firm is employing two different people for one position). All this translates to roughly 30 to 150% of yearly pay . Increases consumer spending due to increase in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP). Research undertaken by the federal government and also research agencies, indicates that wage hike results in approx. $50 B in spending. This increased spending can be captured by businesses in general. GDP grows by $22B , which leads to better business. Research by EPI, a research group funded...

...O CEO da Zenith queria obter do Vice Presidente de Marketing as seguintes questões: 1. Quanto das informações existentes sobre compradores de TV poderiam ser utilizadas para prever o tamanho do mercado de HDTV (TV de alta definição)? As pesquisas existentes mostradas nos anexos 5 a 8 não parecem ser muito úteis para se prever a demanda da nova tecnologia, dado que eram mais informações de preferência das marcas. Outras pesquisas poderiam ter alguma utilidade, como as adquiridas do IMR, indicando o gasto médio na aquisição de TVs, a estimativa de compras de TVs coloridas, idade média e renda média dos compradores. Da mesma forma, as pesquisas com fundo econométrico dos anexos 11 a 14 poderiam ajudar na análise, mas em termos de vendas totais. Pelo menos no que diz respeito a tamanho das TVs, estas projeções parecem ter subestimado o mercado de TVs grandes. 2. Quais são as previsões para vendas de HDTV no período 1992-2000 nos cenários pessimista, mais provável e otimista? Como definir estes cenários? Para se definir estes cenários, teria que ser feito baseado no anexo 15 com as projeções fornecidas. Os cenários realista e otimista já estão colocados na tabela. As premissas do realista são as colocadas e a do otimista considera adicionalmente que a partir de 1997 novos tamanhos menores estariam disponíveis. Para montar o cenário pessimista, a sugestão seria colocar um percentual de penetração de HDTVs mais conservador, nos mesmos percentuais de penetração dos multi-sets...

...Influence On My LIfe One Tree Hill. It has had a major impact on my life. It has showed me different aspects of life. It´s showed me the beautiful things in life that we overlook daily. The bad stuff and the good, that we should appreciate because it's shaped us and our world. It was a Television Show that ran for nine years. One Tree Hill has some amazing quotes that mean something to me. ¨I think we waste our words and our moments and we don´t take the time to say the things that are in our hearts when we have the chance.¨ This quote has changed my life and made me think about what I say does it have a true meaning, and that our time is limited we should take advantage of that. ¨Love means giving chances when there are no more...

...CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION In the past, government has initiated series of micro programmes targeted at the poor with the overriding objective of making credit readily available to those who were traditionally denied access to credit. Such credits in the world over were used for the development of small and meduim scale enterprise, which has been described as the springboard for sustainable development. In all emerging economies like Nigeria, the government has shown a great concern for the development of small and meduim scale enterprise because of the underlying socio economic factors plaguing the nation. some of the reasons include: the past policies failed to generate efficient self sustaining impetus needed to uplift the country to the ‘take-off’ stage of growth, the increased emphasis on self-reliant approach to the development and the recognition that dynamic and growing petty-business can contribute substantially to a wide range of developmental objectives. However, the full potential of the micro business in the development process have not been realized owing to numerous bottlenecks. In the light of this, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) as part of its reform agenda, initiated Micro Finance Banks, a policy initiative aimed at bringing credit to the door step of the poor who do not have such access under the conventional financial system. The thrust of this project is to articulate the prospects of the micro finance banks towards boosting the performance thereby...
