Security Suite Review and Recommendation -According to PCmag.com security suites should have the following features:           1.       Anti-virus 2.      Malware, spyware, adware protection 3.      A firewall 4.      Spam filter 5.      Phishing and privacy protection 6.      VPN 7.      iOS or Android security 8.      Data backup (optional) 9.    Parental controls (optional) -The cost of a suite is based on the number of features offered and the number of devices protected.

ISP Providers

Below are the three companies, the communication channels they use, the transmission speeds they advertise, and the price for their plans: Company             Communication Channel            Transmission Speeds            Price AT&T                  Fiber optic cable                          100 Mbps                               $40/month AT&T                  Fiber optic cable                          1000 Mbps                     ...

A few key words in a print ad can spark a customer’s interest, they can scan the QR code, and then read it later. The QR code allows the customer to scan, and then to quickly be on their way. Kneese (2014) wrote about a unique use for QR codes: encoding information and applying the QR code to a memorial headstone at a cemetery.
