Computers in The Workplace

-

 With being in the military I have seen technology and computers being used every single day for various reasons. The biggest reason computers are a viable source for the military is with the communication aspect. Everybody has work to do but they can't get done alone. Being able to communicate with people within the building, across the street, and even across the globe is a must to ensure the work gets accomplished as quickly as possible. Maintaining computer literacy within my work force isn't the easiest but it is achievable. Our computers and resources are not like the regular off the shelf computers so we get a some problems every now and then. Being able to either problem solve the issues themselves or reach out to an IT specialist within the unit is something we have to constantly be ready for. A day without a computer is a day that we are not able to get the required work done and keep moving forward. 

I believe within the next 10 years technology will grow immensely but with how rapidly technology is moving the IT specialist need to move and grow just as fast if not faster in order to help those who are behind with the timeline. I think communication within the technology world will be faster and easier to connect with those around the world. I think within the next 10 years the security level of technology and computers will be more secure and safe, not only for the military but fro every company throughout the world.

  It is important for an individual or and organization to to have information and security awareness because it keeps the owner’s work and information protected. There are many ways a persons and/or organizations information can be reached. One way is by what is called a ping attack but more specifically; DDos attacks.

There are more than just ping attacks that can be a militias attack to users. A common militias attack that not many people recognize are email spams. Email spams are a type of phishing attacks resulting in the intent to gain access of a users email, passwords, or even personal emails via an email or text message. Having awareness of the information that is sent to a user is an important way to avoid   prevent personal informati...

My experience working with the program Scratch was exciting. This was my first time using this program but it was fun and a good challenge at the same time. I created a story clip that took place around a single main character. My problems with the program were that I tried to get some of the characters to spin and/or flip but that was a big difficulty. I could not figure out the “Forever” block. I tried using the “Spin” tutorial as a guidance on how to make the characters spin but the tutorial didn’t go into great depths. I overcame this road block by using rotating block and the repeating block in conjunction with one another to make it do the same thing but eventually coming to an end. Programming is very detailed and the programmer has to pay attention to all those minute details that are being involved. Comparing the program Scratch and the lessons learned in our text book I could see how Scratch uses all of the different types of machine languages depending on what the user is ...
