7.1 Threats to our company

Five most common threats

1) Viruses
2) Outside intruders
3) Natural disasters
4) Employee/consultants
5) Links to outside business

With these 5 most common threats our company can be threatened by them all. Viruses can come in at any time through our website just from employees that may open emails that have something attached, which could be a virus and we wouldn't know. Employees and consultants may leave things up and other people would be able to hack into the system. The most common one is natural disasters, that can happen at any time and we would not be ready. We could lose our power and then we would lose our information that we have keyed in. Some employees may give out their ID and password and people can use that to get information that is not for them and they can talk about it and the word would get out and then people from other businesses would be able to hack in or find ways to get into our system. All of these can be very harmful to our business. The only way that we can prevent these things from happening to to make sure that these things don't happen is to make sure all of our employees have their own ID and password and they don't give it out, to make sure that when a manager is not in the office that all of in payroll information and other important data is closed before they leave the room. We can also have an identification device, such as a finger print scanner, so we know that this is one of our employees using a certain ID and password and not someone else who may have gained that information from someone else.

6.1 Web Pillars

Four Pillars:

1) Utilizing the web as a platform - where software can be provided as a continually updated service. Creates an equalizer and have to have a web browser

2) Harnessing collective intelligence - allows users to contribute something; input

3) Leveraging the data - using databases to make decisions

4) Implementing Innovative Web capabilities - learning from user's behavior to improve products and services.

With the Ferrum Cinema we will be able to use these pillars in different ways. These pillars will allow us to make the schedules for our employees and also let the employees comment about issues that need to be addressed. We will have an area for blogging for our customers so they can tell us how our sservices are and how we can improve. These pillars will also help us make the schedules for when each movie is playing and when they will be coming to our cinema.
