1. How would you use the stages of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to help Drewmobile Incorporated automate its currently manual "Submit Official Travel Requests & Vouchers Online" business task/activity? (see Chapter 13). Please craft a well-written and fluid essay exam response to address this question. Moreover, please use examples to illustrate your answer.
2. When Tony Stark, CEO of Stark Industries, travels to other countries, he follows a routine that seems straight from a secret agent movie. He leaves his smart-phone and laptop at home. Instead he brings loaner devices, which he erases before he leaves the U.S. and wipes clean the minute he returns. While traveling, he disables Bluetooth and Wi- Fi and never lets his phone out of his sight.
While in meetings, he not only turns off his phone, but also removes the battery for fear his microphone could be turned on remotely. Mr. Tony Stark connects to the Internet only through an encrypted, password-protected channel. He never types in a pass-word directly, but copies and pastes his password from a USB thumb drive. By not typing his password, he eliminates the risk of having it stolen if key-logging software got installed on his device.
Many travelers might consider Tony Stark's method too inconvenient. Clearly, his electronically clean methods are time consuming and expensive. By way of a well written and fluid essay exam response, please address the below questions:
a) Is there a tradeoff between cybersecurity and convenience? Explain.
b) Create a list and explain the best cybersecurity practices for travelers based on Tony Stark's methods
