1) Name and describe data security process. It is about keeping data safe. Many individuals‚ small business and major companies rely heavily on their computer systems. If the data in these computer systems is damaged‚ lost‚ or stolen‚ it can lead to disaster. Key threats to data security. Such process can be done by using Passwords and encryptions. 2) Explain Internet and Intranet with a basic difference Internet is a worldwide system of interconnected computer networks‚ when you connect your

Business Research Methods‚ Part Three For Jose Cuervo to stay ahead of the game‚ qualitative and quantitative data must be collected to develop the new tequila line and stay ahead of the competition. Collecting quantitative data on the tequila is relatively easy‚ whereas collecting qualitative data‚ on the other hand taking a significantly larger and more meticulous effort. To collect such data a survey was conducted to determine whether or not Jose Cuervo should introduce a new tequila line specializing
