3. The CREATOR!!! =]  My name is Jesline James. I’m in year 9 and I’m 14. (I like SpongeBob, hence, the picture below).  I made a presentation on Digital security because I wanted people to know what it is and how it can help us. Nowadays more people, kids especially, are impacted badly by the internet.  Well, to make this presentation I had to collect all answers to all questions on Digital Security. Obviously, I had to research all the information relevant to the topic I have chosen and create a logo. Then, I picked out a video to make this presentation less boring. Back

4. What is Digital Security (self- protection)?  Digital Security gives people the liberty to bravely take part in daily communications through all devices without any worries(electronic precautions to guarantee safety. )  It is the protection of your digital identity. Back

8. Some Digitally Secure Devices  Perhaps the most famous digitally secure device is the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, a device that is put in mobile phones.  Another example is Microsoft.NET card framework. It has many coded solutions to avoid common programming problems etc. Back

9. Advantages and Disadvantages of some authentication tools. Pros of User ID and PasswordCons of User ID and Password Least expensive authentication method to use. Weak and prone to numerous attacks. No need to carry any extra hardware device. Security depends on the users' ability to maintain the user ID and password secret. No need to install extra software.Not fully reliable when used for making financial transactions. User IDs and passwords can be changed at the user's choice, and most users know how to use them. Cost of support increases with user ID and password complexity. Back

10. Continuation….. Pros on Digital Certificates on Smart cards and USB tokens Cons on Digitals Certificates on Smart cards and USB tokens Safer to use than the normal user ID or password. Have to carry an additional smart card reading device or USB so that they can log in. A third-party confirming authority issues the digital certificates, helping to increase user trust. Involves additional cost, such as the certifying authority's subscription cost for issuing the digital certificates. Difficult for non-authorized users to remove the private key when stored on a smart card. Requires user training for certificate generation and use. Back
