A water pipe bursts, flooding a General Business Company (GBC) utility room and tripping the circuit breakers on a panel in the

room. GBC contacts Hal, a licensed electrician with ten years of experience, to investigate the damage and turn the breakers "on." Hal attempts to turn on one of the breakers without testing for short circuits, which he knows should be done. Hal is electrocuted, and files a suit against GBC for damages, al­leging negligence. How might GBC defend itself?

Answer:

As a licensed electrician of 10 years Hal should be aware of the risks associated with his job. Now, I'll tell you of all of the mistakes and unnecessary risks that made by Hal. First, seeing a there was no mention of a plumber, I'm going to assume that the utility room is still flooded. If it is not still flooded then ignore this and move on to my next point, but if it is then I would just like to say that as a man with 10 years of experience, he should be aware of the fact that water conducts electricity. Second, even if the electrocution didn't involve the water, as a professional he should be competent enough to wear proper safety equipment. And finally, if I was GBC I would hire another electrician to point out every mistake made and how the entire thing could have been avoided if Hal hadn't decided to cut corners.

I hope that helps! :)

Answer:

evidence collection was mishandled

Explanation:

In this scenario, the most likely reason was that the evidence collection was mishandled. There is a very strict chain of custody involving evidence for cyber attacks such as this one. If the evidence is mishandled or does not go through the proper channels of authority as soon as the incident happens then the evidence cannot be used in court. This is because the evidence becomes tainted and brings up many questions in court such as if it was planted, manipulated, or even removed from a crime scene which can all change the outcome of the case.

What is Cold-calling in marketing and finance?
OleMash [197]

La llamada en frío es una técnica de venta para captar potenciales clientes sin que estos esperen una interacción en ese momento determinado.  

En una llamada en frío el fin es conocer a los clientes potenciales, realizar una prospección de éstos para incluir datos en una segunda fase posterior en la que se realizan las llamadas de venta telefónica.

Diferencias entre venta telefónica y llamada en frío

Aunque de manera inicial se pueden confundir, cada una tiene una serie de características y objetivos distintos.

Llamada en frío: Es el paso inicial a la venta telefónica, su objetivo es acometer una acción más publicitaria y persuasiva. Por ejemplo, cuando de repente llaman para dar información sobre un seguro de coche. Es una llamada que no se espera y se realiza una investigación durante la llamada de las posibilidades de ese cliente potencial.

Venta telefónica: En esta acción el vendedor lo que pretende directamente es persuadir al usuario a que compre su producto o servicio. Previamente han sido preparados a través de diferentes técnicas para ejercer un trabajo de presión y muy persuasivo.
