4.6 ADVANTAGES
Data mining is present in many aspects of our daily lives, whether we realize it or not.
It aects how we shop, work, and search for information, and can even in uence our leisure time, health, and well-being. So data mining is ubiquitous (or ever-present.
Several of these examples also represent invisible data mining , in which smart soft-

To handle such concerns, numerous data security-enhancing techniques have been developed. In addition, there has been a great deal of recent eort on develop- ing privacy-preserving data mining methods. In this section, we look at some of the advances in protecting privacy and data security in data mining. What can we do to secure the privacy of individuals while collecting and mining data?" Many data se- curity enhancing techniques have been developed to help protect data. [2] Databases can employ a multilevel security model to classify and restrict data according to var- ious security levels, with users permitted access to only their authorized level. It has been shown, however, that users executing specic queries at their authorized security level can still infer more sensitive information, and that a similar possibility can occur through data mining. Encryption is another technique in which individual data items may be encoded. This may involve blind signatures (which build on public key …show more content…

Marques Underwood INSS 391 Security and the Future With the transition of companies leaning towards advancing through the usage of big data, cybersecurity and the trends in technology are creating an increase in threats. The goal is to protect the databases and devices used at these companies before they are hacked and compromised for unwanted reasons. We’ll see the general concerns with security in the IT field, and steps that specific companies are taking to prevent and adopt to the landscape of the future in security. Devices are increasing at a rapid pace these days, meaning the more data is being expanding.
1. Standards Driven Data: Online tools and resources will be used to analyze standards used in a course. How often are they being used and are they being used appropriately? Data then will determine what needs changed and adapted to meet those requirements. 2.
Analytical Review of “Is Google Making Us Stupid” As society advances into the technological era, innovations have served society as a catalyst to become more efficient, more technologically sound, and most importantly more in tuned with the rapid changes that are presented to us every day. Yet, there are some, that like to stay “old school.” There are some arguments that state these technological advancements are receding society’s intellectual advancement. Nonetheless, it should be apparent that the subject on society’s advancement has many view points and approaches. In “Is Google Making Us Stupid”, Nicholas Carr approaches the common issues of common availability of information through the internet; most importantly how it effects our ability to search and retain information.
Nicholas Carr in his essay, "Is Google Making Us Stupid?”, gives a serious warming to the negative impact to people’s brains which is caused by the overmuch using of the Internet. First of all, Carr states the common phenomenon in using the Internet to be a resource which regards almost any information. In addition, Carr expresses that the convenience in using the Internet is destroying our independence in reading, writing and working and make us be accustomed to do any things relying on the Internet. On the other hands, Carr claims that the Internet is become the new largest distraction in our lives. The overload information is fulfill our lives and discourage us to pay attention to the actually objects of our work.
In a recently published article titled “The Daily You : How The New Advertising Industry Is Defining Your Identity And Your Worth,” by Joseph Turow, states that well-known media corporations such as Facebook and Google have been “data mining.” Simply to speak, data mining is the collection of internet data that is sold off and used as research for marketing companies to further develop ideas to engage potential targets. Notably, Turow states that the twenty-first century exhibits one of the most stealthy methods of social profiling. Turow further illustrates his stance on how the intrusion of privacy can lead to several negative factors in which he later goes in depth about. Though he structures the body of the essay around
We Owe Our Diplomas to Google Have our brains become robots due to Google? From my own experience, when I need an answer to anything Google is my first place to go. In his article, “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” Nicholas Carr discusses, I agree with the points in his article. The ways people read and write today are affected by the Internet, as well as, the way people think, learn and absorb information.
Choose to use apps and services that notify you, in plain language, what information they collect and why”. Trapani presents the problem and offers a solution for readers. Like Felten she shows that there is a problem but also helps the reader by giving them an answer. The common reader will not be able to make changes in the application making process, which Trapani knows, but they can be aware of the danger and look to avoid putting themselves in situations where they lose privacy. Her argument is clear and simple, which is perfect for the common app user who may not be an expert.
Adoption of monitoring of course progress is widespread especially with institutions that have emulated the business marketing analytics where they target the best customers. One could not be a true advocate of education and equality if they are remiss to give equal weight to the positives and the negatives of learning analytics. Are students late and waiting till the last minute to complete assignments? Gifted students who know how much time they will take per class on each assignment may have placed your course work as a low priority. Do not make a one box fits all

The dataset includes information collected from the survey of 105 students and includes variables such as performance and demographic variables. The variable GPA measures the performance
Federal regulation and oversight is required to ensure those responsible for storing sensitive information take appropriate measures to secure the data and report any breaches in a timely manner. Collection and storage of personal information is not a concept that is unique to the Internet. The United States Government has been collecting personally identifiable information, such as Names, Addresses, Social Security Numbers for many years. However, it wasn’t until 1974 that Congress passed legislation designed to enforce the proper handling of that data. The Privacy Act of 1974 regulates how the federal government collects, stores, and protects personal
Shawntae Aikens Technology has a found a way into our lives where we use it everyday, and some have come to the point where they depend on it. People have become concerned that the Internet is becoming a distraction and has taken over our lives. The Internet, and social media has become very addicting our smartphones have given us the chance to have the internet and social media at our hands at all times. Nicholas Carr, a writer for the Atlantic Online, wrote the article “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” Within his article he discusses his opinion on how the internet is something that is not helping us at all.
1.3.1 Scalability: Scalability is an issue of the algorithms with massive and real-world datasets. Because the analysis on core techniques progresses and matures, it becomes clear that a basic issue for RSs is to see the way to implant the core recommendation techniques in real operational systems and the way to contend with huge and dynamic sets of knowledge produced by the interactions of users with items. An answer that works fine once tested off-line on comparatively tiny knowledge sets may become inefficient might be or perhaps totally irrelevant on terribly massive datasets. New approaches and large-scale analysis studies are required [9]. 1.3.2 Cold Start: 1.3.2.1 New User Problem:
Technology is growing at a fast pace and every day we see a new product or service that is available. Many times it is hard to even keep up with the latest phone, computer, game console, or software. There are so many different gadgets to choose from and even the internet is on information overload. As a result, we can no longer truly expect to have privacy.
"While the Internet-based economy provides many benefits, it also raises new concerns for maintaining the privacy of information. “Internet privacy is the privacy and security level of personal data published via the Internet. It is a broad term that refers to a variety of factors, techniques and technologies used to protect sensitive and private data, communications, and preferences.â€[1] As the federal government’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA)[2] explains: Every day, billions of people around the world use the Internet to share ideas, conduct financial transactions, and keep in touch with family, friends, and colleagues. Users send and store personal medical data, business communications, and even intimate conversations over this global network.
Students are most essential asset for any educational institute. The social and economic development is directly linked with student academic performance. The students’ performance plays an important role in producing the best quality graduates who will become great leader and manpower for the country thus responsible for the country’s economic and social development. Student academic performance measurement has received considerable attention in previous research, it is challenging aspects of academic literature, and science student performance are affected due to social, psychological, economic, environmental and personal factors. These factors strongly influence on the student performance, but these factors vary from person to person (Irfan Mushtaq and Shabana Nawaz
