1. Integrity
Integrity involves assurance that all information systems are protected and not tampered with. IA aims to maintain integrity through means such as anti-virus software on all computer system, and ensuring all staff with access to know how to appropriately use their systems to minimize malware, or viruses entering information systems.
IT Governance provides a variety of E-learning courses to improve staff awareness on topics such as phishing and ransomware, as a means to reduce the likelihood of system being breached, and data exposed.
2. Availability
Availability simply means those who need access to information, are allowed to access it. Information should be available to only those who are aware of the risks associated with information systems.
3. Authentication
Authentication involves ensuring those who have access to information, are who they say they are. Ways of improving authentication involve methods such as two-factor authentication, strong passwords, bio-metrics and other devices. Authentication may also be used to not only identify users, but also other devices.
4. Confidentiality
IA involves the confidentiality of information, meaning only those with authorization may view certain data. This step is closely mirrored by the six data processing principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), where by personal data must be processed in a secure manner "using appropriate technical and oganizational measures" ("integrity and confidentiality").
5. Nonrepudiation
The final pillar simply means someone with access to your organizations information system cannot deny having completed an action within the system, as there should be methods in place to prove that they did make said action.
Answer:
The system is marginally stable.
Explanation:
Transfer function, M(s) = [10(s+2)]/(s³ + 3s² + 5s)
In control the stability properties of a system can be obtained from just the characteristic equation of its closed loop transfer function.
- The condition for stability is that all the roots of the characteristic equation be negative and real.
- The condition for asymptotic stability is that all the real parts of the roots must all be negative, since there'll be complex roots.
- The condition for marginal stability is that the real part of all the complex roots are negative, the roots without real parts must have distinct imaginary parts.
- The condition for instability is for at least one of the roots to be positive. Or if there are complex roots, the real part of the roots being positive indicates instability.
The characteristic equation for this transfer function is (s³ + 3s² + 5s)
Solving this polynomial
s = 0
s = [-3 - √(11i)]/2
s = [-3 + √(11i)]/2
These roots have all their real parts to be negative, and the zero root has a distinct imaginary part, hence the system is marginally stable
Answer:
<em>Heat is lost at the rate of 750 J/s or W</em>
<em>The thermal resistance is 1 K/W</em>
Explanation:
interior temperature
= 900 °C
wall thickness t = 60 cm = 0.6 m
width = 1 m
breadth = 1.5 m
thermal conductivity k = 0.4 W/m-K
outside temperature
= 150 °C
heat through the wall = ?
The area of the wall A = w x b = 1 x 1.5 = 1.5 m^2
Temperature difference
=
-
= 900 - 150 = 750 °C
note that
is also equal to 750 K since to convert from °C to K we'll have to add 273 to both temperature, which will still cancel out when we subtract the two temperatures.
To get the heat that escapes through the wall, we use the equation
Q = Ak
substituting values, we have
Q = 1.5 x 0.4 x
= <em>750 J/s or W</em>
Thermal resistance
= 
= 750/750 =<em> 1 K/W</em>
