Question 1:
The Net Movies Company is looking forward for applying legislation obligations to manage
the confidential data of the user in their databases. The proposed online project is deficient in
handling privacy policies because no internal security methods are indulged in the
development program of the application. The success of the project depends on the
implementation of security and privacy procedures which are being used in the system
development. The inadequacy of the company information system can be resolved by
applying the privacy policies associated with the database of the customers. Some of the
recommended privacy policies which should be used by the company are such as company

decryption methods should be used for storing the information in the database in the form of
cipher text to secure it from cyber-attack, session cookies should be inserted for the automatic
closure of the account due to session time out, and etc1. These privacy procedures help in
securing the confidential data of the customers from leaking to the third party.

party.
