D2 - UNIT 14

You can use a number of protocol transmission which include...
  1. Email
  2. Text Messages




Email - 

The good things about this protocol transmission is you can send things from all over the world and it the matter of seconds. However the bad things about email protocol transmission is sometimes the file might not open or it wont transfer all the information depending where you are.Also if you want to send alot of pictures you have to do it in separate emails which could cause some problems


Text Messages -

Text Messages is also a good protocol because its a easier way and it is very fast but the disadvantages is sometimes depending on what you are sending it may cost your more and if you don't know you could get carried away and your phone bill will be alot higher.

M1 UNIT 14

M1
How do protocols and devices keep data safe?

To keep your devices safe you must set a password which only you will remember.Also you must change it on a regular bases so you have no risk of someone hacking you.

Furthermore you should always log out! Even if it is email or Facebook you must because the person using the computer/laptop after could access your messages because you are already logged in.

With WiFi you have to but a password/code so someone can not access it. However if you don't have a password its so much easier for someone to use your WiFi without you realising.

p7 - unit 14


P7 – UNIT 14 

A customer wants to know if they can send a contact from one device to another.  With a partner demonstrate how to wirelessly send one contact from your device to your partners.  You need to fill in the witness statement (or print scree) describing how you done it and the protocol you used. Copy this witness statement or print screens to blogger

You can send it by a number of ways which include

   Email

 Bluetooth

 Text Message



You can send contact information in many different ways. One being is that you can send it by Bluetooth if you’re close enough.


Another way of sending contact information over devices is you can hold the button down for a number of seconds on the information then a tab should come up saying ‘send to contact’ or ‘send by email’ if you click on this the information will send just by a easy text or email.

P6 UNIT 14

Social and Legal implications of using mobile technologies.





Legal Implications -

Phone Driving -
If you are on the phone either having a phone call or texting someone or even on social network you are breaking the law. Whilst you are on your phone you loose all your concentration on the road and you forget what you doing as you are not paying attention. Not paying attention to the road can cause accidents -
For example if you looking down on your phone and not on the road you could end up in the back of the car in front of you.
To stop causing accidents and to stop breaking the law you could either turn your phone off or keep it somewhere you can see it so it don't cause temptation staring at it.



Phone Theft -
Phone theft is also against the law. If you put your phone in your back pocket or somewhere where it is visible to see you are in the risk of getting your phone stolen.
To prevent your phone being stolen you have to put it somewhere safe - for example in a zipped pocket, bag etc where no one knows where it is expect from you.


Piggybacking -
Piggybacking is when you use someones wireless network. This is against the law because you using it for free and without their permission on using the wireless network.




Social Implications -

Cyber bulling -
Cyber bulling is when you bully someone by calling them names or threatening them over social network. This is why we use 'cyber' because it is online.
To stop this we can either block the people who are bulling or dont add them as a friend or even report them.

P4 & M2 UNIT 14

P4-


The technology that can be used to send pictures are 



FACEBOOK-

With Facebook you can upload photos and onto your own albums. However if you don't want people to see your photos you can change your privacy settings to 'only friends'. If you don't do this the whole Facebook can see your photos even if you don't have them as a friend. There is 5 settings - 'Friends' 'Friends of friends' 'Only me' and 'Custom' which allows you to hide your photos from certain people.



INSTAGRAM-

Instagram is also a site you can use for uploading photos. However Instagram has its disadvantages which included you have to crop your photo so its a certain size which could cause some problems  Also you cant save photos on Instagram the only way you could do it is screenshot it depending how what type device you have. However Twitter does not crop photos but Twitter AND Instagram are very public.


EMAIL-

Email is one of the most popular ways you could use to send photos to people. Its a good idea to send photos to people if your on holiday and you would like to show them where you are and what is your surroundings. The disadvantages are you can only send a limited amount of photos so if you would like to send alot you would have to do it in a number of emails. However its a quick easy way if you only have a couple of photos.


TWITTER-

Twitter is a difficult way to send photos because the only way you could do it is by uploading it to your profile. This is bad because everyone following you on twitter can see the photo you just uploading. It depends how who you want to show and what the photo is. However comparing Facebook to it is that Facebook and Instagram is alot more private than twitter.


PICTURE MESSAGES-

Picture message is also quite difficult because it cost to send a photo even though your on contract but just say your on pay as you go it will cost alot more than 10/15p because your added an extra file. Also the picture quality is quite poor. However its a quick easy way to save it to your mobile. On the other hand other social networking like Facebook would be easier because you can send a picture through inbox.
