Discussion Topic
Consider a socks manufacturing company where a production manager monitors daily business activities / reports for effective decision making. While being connected with the enterprise’s central system, he uses different devices at different places like PC, tablet and smart phone occasionally. During work at his office, his PC is connected to the internet via fiber optics, at home or at any place where Wi-Fi is available (i.e. coffee shop or restaurant) he is connected to the internet via tablet whereas during travel he can monitor the reports on his smart phone which is connected via GPRS. Each device has different set of protocols defined by their manufacturers.
Discuss whether the factors (i.e. authenticity, integrity and security) of the reports when monitored by the manager using different devices (PC, tablet and smart phone) are being affected or not. Concise and coherent comments are required.
