Security:- Malware


             Imagine if there was a teleportation technology that was able to teleport students to classes? Imagine that. Anyway to a more realistic idea, imagine if like there was facial recognition technology installed in every hall. This idea might be somewhat out of the realm to others but I believe that if this existed it would make the lives of college students especially SU students easier. With the facial recognition technology students can have access to their halls easier, faster and more efficient rather than to wait in a long line for check-ins.
    
           

                   When coming up with a technology that revolves around personal information and identities, security is a main concern. With the facial recognition technology surrounding the whole college, information is needed to be retrieved from time to time for many reasons such as security. Sometimes information is needed to be shared with a third party through encoding. This week we were learning about IP addresses and how to read encoding programs and commands to comprehend how information is sent from one location to another. With that knowledge, I can share information with the school system back and forth. This is really important to understand for my idea because there is so much personal data is installed in this program.
                 
                With that said, security is a main concern when it comes to my facial recognition technology. Also with modern technology and programs, the dangers of viruses and malware have increased tremendously. Malware unfortunately gives people access to discreet and personal information which can be harmful to many students that attend college especially one like Syracuse. It is really vital to keep my technology safe from any virus to avoid any disasters.

                Personally, it is very important to keep my technology safe such as a student’s identity, where they live, their birth date and etc. Building this technology would mean that students and the Syracuse body system would rely on me to keep every detail as accurate as possible and with extreme caution. For my technology to be successful, I would need to take all these concerns about security and viruses in consideration.
