Web accessibility
Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can use the Web. More specifically, Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web, and that they can contribute to the Web. Web accessibility also benefits others, including older people with changing abilities due to aging.
· Web accessibility encompasses all disabilities that affect access to the Web, including visual, auditory, and physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities. The document "How People with Disabilities Use the Web" describes how different disabilities affect Web use and includes scenarios of people with disabilities using the Web.
· Millions of people have disabilities that affect their use of the Web. Currently most Web sites and Web software have accessibility barriers that make it difficult or impossible for many people with disabilities to use the Web. As more accessible Web sites and software become available, people with disabilities are able to use and contribute to the Web more effectively.
· Web accessibility also benefits people without disabilities. For example, a key principle of Web accessibility is designing Web sites and software that are flexible to meet different user needs, preferences, and situations. This flexibility also benefits people without disabilities in certain situations, such as people using a slow Internet connection, people with "temporary disabilities" such as a broken arm, and people with changing abilities due to aging.
· The Web is an increasingly important resource in many aspects of life: education, employment, government, commerce, health care, recreation, and more. It is essential that the Web be accessible in order to provide equal access and equal opportunity to people with disabilities. An accessible Web can also help people with disabilities more actively participate in society.
· The Web offers the possibility of unprecedented access to information and interaction for many people with disabilities. That is, the accessibility barriers to print, audio, and visual media can be much more easily overcome through Web technologies.
1. If you are a client you need web accessibility in order to actually access the site you need.
2. If you are web developer you need to pick a certain color for the website in order to make the client access the site .the color scheme web developer should never use is bright colors like orange green bright pink or neon colors ,because this could always make the website inaccessible.
3. If you are a business manger you need to make sure that you always have or check if the web your developers are making is accessible other wise if you don’t check it could be inappropriate and the business manager will get sewed or just loose their business.
4. Nationalism: for this you need to make sure that your website includes all the languages so other people from all over the world visit your website.

Evaluation for spaghetti bridges
Last Wednesday our whole diploma group had to build a spaghetti bridge; with 24 pieces of spaghetti; 10 marshmallows; one paper clip; one envelope. We all had to have different jobs to do .I for example had to keep in track of the equipment we used; we had to have a certain amount of spaghetti and a certain amount of marshmallows as I said in the beginning .Others had roles like being leaders (lead the group), builders (build the bridge), researchers (find useful info on how to build the bridge), designers(design a template of the bridge on a specific software)
Marks out of ten for some of the team member’s roles:
Leader-Ben: I give him 9, because he did very well on leading the group telling them what to do and e.t.c., but he did go off task for a couple of times like ..(Playing games) In general I should say he did very well.
Equipment –me : I give myself 7 ,because I did my job handed out appropriate equipment ,but once or twice I didn’t keep in track with the equipment left un used and other members of the group sneaked into the cupboard and ate the spaghetti. But at the end I did well so I’m not quite sure, but I give myself 7.(I was a little bossy I should say ..is that a good thing ?)
Designer –William: I give him 9, because he put a lot of effort into our design he did very well .The thing is when we actually got to build the bridge it went good except some dimensions and parts went a little wrong and the bridge didn’t hold itself fully, so the solution was for the builders to come up with more ideas/additions to the bridge to make it stronger .That was the reason I gave him 9.
Researcher-Tom I give him 6-7, because his job was to research and find other examples on how other people build the bridges .His main target was to pass the information to the leader and share it with whole group, he didn’t .I did see him doing his research on intranet but I didn’t see hi printing it or sharing it with whole group. At the end his work wasn’t used and it ended as in we didn’t even need a researcher, because his research wasn’t used.
Scribe –Emily: I give her 9, because her job was to write on the board and concentrate on her job so she doesn’t make any mistakes; people’s jobs; what equipment to use; leader’s notes; builder’s notes e.t.c.
Back to my point I gave her 9 ,because she did her job but she wasn’t concentrating on her work for quite a while which meant she didn’t really did the job she was given …Altogether she did very well as I gave her 9.
Conclusion: everyone in the group did very well indeed no matter if they did a couple of mistakes. We all worked in together very well and that’s what the main target of our activity was.
I do have to apologise if I was little over the top on the grades I gave on my evaluation of different roles in the group, but in the end I was only being honest

4. our back ups are not in place so we need them in place to protect data

Hope you will take my suggestions into actions, because this is very important for our company other wise we will have more and more problems

Activity 5.9
1. list ways physical security can be implemented.
Locking the rooms with good quality locks
Raise it from the floor
2. How could the physical security identified in question 1 be breached?
It can only be breached if you brake the locks (well if its possible) brake down the room raised above the floor
3. Analyze how virus-checking software and firewall can work together to prevent virus infection.
They can both protects different things like virus checker can protect it form hackers and firewall can block unauthorized access while permitting authorized communications.
