OCR GCSE Business & Communication Task 7 Report

Task 7 Reports Task 1a: Logo Software: The software I used was Adobe Fireworks CS3. I used Fireworks because it offered a wide range of tools and textures. For my logo to stand out and be able to have anything it required I had to use this programme. I also have a lot of background use and knowledge of this programme, which meant I could use it more efficiently and effectively. Other programmes such as Photoshop or Microsoft Word do not offer such tools and would degrade my logo altogether. I could have used a variety of programmes such as Photoshop or Freehand, these are both programmes, which could have fulfilled my requirement, but lack in certain tools and effects. These programme lack in quality tools and would overall reduce the professionalism of my work. Photoshop offers tools for changing and editing pictures, this is not suitable as my logo had to be original and have new ideas published into it. Freehand does not suit the needs of my task as it is based upon opposite targets of my logo. My logo had to be original and incorporate a lot of professional and advert sable ideas and I think using these programmes, I would not be able to achieve these targets. I am confident I used the right programme, as 'Adobe Fireworks' is very effective in creating new ideas and adding personal preferences towards it. It also has a wide range of colour effects and variety

For my Project we have to solve a problem through communicating, using computers.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TASK TO BE ATTEMTED Introduction E-mail is the new modern way to Communicate. Most people have access to the internet Now meaning that they can send e-mail to anybody in the world for example you can meet people over the internet and then get to know them better by E-Mailing them. You can use e-mail to buy things of the Internet anything from a Television to a new car. In this project I will investigate how I can communicate with people by using different methods. Ideas Of Task For my Project we have to solve a problem through communicating, using computers. The problem could be anything; the main ideas are openings of clubs. For example communicating to people, through computer means, about a new opening of, say a new football club. This is not the only choice though; you could just make a presentation, for say pupils who are starting secondary school, telling them about the secondary school, its teachers, and the facilities. We have to communicate ideas to a decided audience, it could be advertising, or simply information presented in either a presentation, or website. Chosen Idea The problem, which I have chose, is that a company wants to make more Kung-fu clubs around London because they feel that the area is not exactly safe for children to go out by themselves, and so children need to learn how to defend themselves. The company needs to get

The Organiser of the Annual Christmas concert at King Edward IV School needs an electronic system that will help them organise the event. The Christmas concert has ran for many years but has always been a complicated procedure. The organiser of the concert this year is Mrs Williams. She discussed with me the other day what the new system must be able to do and that it must be reusable so that other people can organise the concert in years to come. She says that she has some knowledge of ICT but the system still needs to easy to understand. Mrs Williams will be my End user. What is the Current Problem? In the weeks coming up to the concert, certain decisions must be made on how much money can be spent. For past events, a rough estimate has been made on how many tickets will be sold, and how much the other funds that the school has will have to spend on the event. This however results in money being lost as the estimates made are often wrong. This results in money being lost that could be spent on the pupils education and improving the school in general. Why has the Problem Arisen? The problem arose when the school realised that with an electronical system making exact calculations for the

What is Spoofing?

Shumaila Aslam Information Security BSc Combined Honours Computer Science Spoofing Spoofing: E-mail, server..... How it is done, how it is detected, how to defend against it. What is Spoofing? Definition spoof (DECEIVE) [Show phonetics] verb [I or T] US INFORMAL to try to make someone believe in something that is not true, as a joke (from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary) Web spoofing is the act of secretly tricking your Web browser into talking to a different Web server than you intend. How? By attacking the DNS (domain name system) that maps the "www.site.com" in a URL to a network address, or by modifying a Web page to have a bad URL, or by tricking your browser as it interprets CGI data, JavaScript, etc. After your browser has been fooled, the spoofed Web server can send you fake Web pages or prompt you to provide personal information such as your login ID, password, or even credit card or bank account numbers. If done carefully, you probably will not even notice that you have been duped. How to Spot a Spoofed Page Some Web spoofing may be noticeable, so it is helpful to keep these tips in mind: * If you hold your mouse over a URL that is a link, the status line displays the corresponding URL. Be suspicious if the status line URL is different from what you think you should see. * When the Web page is being requested, the status line will
