One new thing I have learned in this module.... I was interested to see there were so many distinctions for mal-ware and mal-users. I previously would have classified anyone doing wayward things to/with a computer as either a hacker or an unauthorized user, and I thought that any program that went on a computer and did bad things was a virus. I don't know that it will make a difference, but I'm glad to know the difference.
Another thing that impressed me was the information that any computer is vulnerable to attack. I have a MacBook, and have always had a sense of security, because there just aren't Mac viruses. After this module, I thought about it, and realized there are many more Macs out there than there used to be, and people are probably starting to target them. So I downloaded the McAfee virus detection program for MacIntosh computers - FYI, this is available for free to University of Utah students through campus software licensing.

Yes, security and privacy are moving targets which make them complex issues in healthcare technology. Very nice work on your blog this semester. I hope moving forward you will be able to apply what you have learned in your current and future practice. All the best!
As a sign of gratitude for how my husband was saved from Lymes, I decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
My husband suffered from Lymes and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him. I searched for a cure and I saw testimony of so many people who were cured from Lymes , and so many others with similar body problems, and they left the contact of this doctor who had the herbal cure to Lymes. I never imagined Lymes had a cure not until I contacted him and he assured me my husband will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my husband used it and in one months he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life.Lymes has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua can cure Herpes,Hiv,Cancer,ALS,Copd,HPV,Lupus,MS,Diabetes, and other disease talk to Dr Itua on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony .
