The misused act became law in the 1990. All of the Collages and university tries to under take this act in tryin to stop these hackers getting into their servers and using some of there documents and privite information against them, such as black mail. This will be a grat way for the collages to try and fight off these hackers who might be trying to hack into their school network

Here are some of the suggestions of some of the criminal defences;


 * Unaurthorised acsess of a computer( program and software)
 * if you acsess the internet or the computer network oyu can face a prison setence.
 * Any changes to you computer without permission

there is a fine of £2000 or that you can have a life sentence of 5 months aor you can have both.

School have now adapted to this new software, so that all of the children are now growing up with the new tecnolagy. That some of us did'nt havge back in thoses days. All of the time people have been making new tecnoligy and software. Most countries have not got most of this tecnoilgy and have had to do eith what they have got, some of the time we gibe some of teh gadgets to the people who are less fortunate than us, so that they can have a life that we have.

All of this tecnoligy as now been used in airoplanes and trains.

The advantages of ICT; it is faster then writing you have got a load of different fonts, text and format it is all saved on a hardrive/memory in the computer

the disadvantages of using ICT; if your work in not saved then you will lose the work that you have just done some of the older computer are slow and harder to use.

Photo software is very dagerous.
 * People can copy your picture and be fordged.
 * You need to keep them copied righed and safe.
 * Don't let anyone download them if you don't know them.
 * know who you are selling them to.

All of these thing can be pulled off by a person who has a omputer and the internet acsess. This can be easily done and you can be easily be pulled off by this scheme. people would trya nd do this all the time and try and hack into your computer and try and steal of all of the information and the documents that you haw staore o your hardrive and memory stick and data.

__the difference between Validation and verification__

the difference of them,

Validation is the checking of the software or the piece of work. To see whether it is correct or not.

Verification, is the check of a copied piece of work to see it is in the right place on your hardrive.

this will also bring up a message if you try and do something wrong and will corupt the computer.
