sattari [20]3 years ago

The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50 to 260 inches of rain falls yearly. Rain forests belong to the tropical wet climate group.

Explanation:

  • The temperature in a rain forest rarely gets higher than 93 °F or drops below 68 °F. The average humidity is between 77 and 88%, rainfall is often more than 100 inches a year. In monsoonal areas, there is a real dry season.
  • Rainforests now cover less than 6% of Earth's land surface. Tropical rainforests produce 40% of Earth's oxygen.
  • About 1/4 of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants. Curare comes from a tropical vine, is used as an anesthetic and to relax muscles during surgery. Quinineis used to treat malaria.
  • There are four very distinct layers of trees in a tropical rain forest. They are the emergent, upper canopy, understory, and forest floor.
  • The soil of the tropical rainforests is shallow, poor in nutrients and without soluble minerals. Years of rainfall have washed away the nutrients in the soil obtained from weathered rocks.
  • The tropical rain forest can be found in three major geographical areas around the world.
  • Central America in the the Amazon river basin.  Africa - Zaire basin, with a small area in West Africa. Indo-Malaysia - west coast of India, Assam, Southeast Asia, New Guinea and Queensland, Australia.

Varvara68 [4.7K]
The answer is C) Availability.

Although the company is addressing scalability by adding more servers, the question is asking for security requirement. Therefore we need to choose one of the principles from CIA triad which includes confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Integrity involves keeping the data accurate and confidentiality involves keeping the data between the sender and intended recipient(s). That being said, scalability and availability are the possible answers.

C) Availability is the best answer because it is part of the CIA triad.

Note: Another resource to look at for cyber security principles would be the Parkerian Hexad.

Gnoma [55]
<span>Password procedures, information encryption software, and firewalls are examples of measures taken to address are all measures taken to safeguard information security and protect users data from being tampered or manipulated by invaders. 

In web, if we leave our information without encryption or if we leave our system without firewall, different types of security threats might arise: such as, information being hacked, manipulated or sent to wrong places. To avoid this information encryption is done. We might also need to firewall our system so that we can avoid unwanted access and invading of our privacy using malwares and other tools. </span>
