Internet Theory, Use and Exploration #2

"Assignment #2 20.6 Discuss the security of information that is accessed or sent over the Internet.

Students should research the types of security that is provided on different websites. They should be aware of the difference between secure and unsecured websites and of the use of encryption (WHAT IS THIS?) and its effectiveness.  (BMO & GOOGLE)

 The potential for virus infection and ways to prevent or reduce the impact of viruses should be investigated. Students could research the effectiveness of various virus protection programs. (TOP 5)

The use of Internet security programs that limit the content available could be explored and discussed in terms of appropriate use of these programs in places like schools, public libraries, or places of employment. Their capabilities and limitations should also be considered. (CONTENT BLOCKER)

One Page Summary, and you may only copy and paste the anti virus specs!"
