[Year 12 IT Apps] are we in the cone of silence or ...

Wed Nov 10 10:27:50 EST 2010

I have just been speaking to our technician who is a gun at these things.  He was scratching his head about question 3 as well and didn't think any of the suggested answers would work.  When pushed, he suggested d - virus protection software might be the answer.  The reason being that it might detect a hacker trying to get into password protected files. I'm still not sure!

Question 16 was pretty easy IMO - answer is B.   The common field *Music teacher ID* is in all three tables, so its common fields in different tables.

I think the key is that CCTV is the only one that detects anything, B & C are keeping the data safe and A is non-existent.

I have issues with the wording of MC 16 - assuming A is correct, but shouldn't it be Primary and Foreign keys in different tables?

Not a great question, but in my opinion, I would say that a keyboard swipe authenticates the user and has the possibility of logging all actions on the computer. But then I would have imagined that auditor trails/logs would be the form of detection, not the keyboard swipe. Ridiculously, I would probably agree and say that of the 4 options, CCTV would be the best.

I'm still ruminating on that one...

I googled keyboard swipe and even they couldn't tell me what it was.  Is it something like they use at the bank where a card gets swiped through some magnetic reader and it reads customer details?  I can't see how that would detect unauthorised access to a pasword protected file though.... 

Encryption software.   Hmm   It doesn't say the password is encrypted.  So I'm not sure thats relevant either

Closed circuit TV - well it could detect if someone trying to access a file, if it was zoomed right in at the keyboard, at the right place at the right time - surely not a practical solution though!

Virus protection software - maybe, although I wouldn't have thought detecting unauthorised access to a password protected file would be its primary function.

So if I had to have a punt I would go for c.  maybe!
