Final Summary IST 195 review :
In these last eight weeks I have learned a lot from social
networking to databases and hardware. This project has really come full circle
for me and I am now able to see how it could really play out as a mix of Google
wallet and of the Starbucks scan and go card. I really believe that with a
little bit more time and concentration that the ‘electronic credit card’ and Google
could mix together and become one massive security system for credit card
holders everywhere.
This summery is not going to break down each and every week
and each and every step taken to come to this final conclusion but it is going
to be an analysis of how I came to my discoveries and the challenges I foresee.
Every good project or idea has to have some faults, mine are as follows:
1. Networking:
I foresee the network connections becoming a problem for
users who like to do online banking solely on their phone instead of through an
app or gadget. When too many
outlets are used for one product or system that tends to cause mix up’s ad data
to be hacked easily. Mind you the entire goal of this project was to create a
safer and more reliable way of banking, and making purchases while out and
about.
2. Organization:
Initially I talked about organizing user’s information
through Excel and have codes for each person so that no two codes would ever
mix up or match. However, now that I have learned more about this project and
that I see that there are easier ways to store the date, I feel as though it
will be completely necessary to have a solid database to transfer data files,
systems, and private information from bank to bank.
3. Hardware:
I am still not completely sure what kind of hardware other
than what I mentioned before which was lots of memory, serves, RFID chips, and
minor other things you would need for such a large scale, I did not find any
reviews on other material or hardware that will make the building project any
easier. The best bet is to go with nanotechnology and have scientists build the
most powerful nano- chip out there.
In conclusion,
I have learned that as technology constantly changes, I am
not the only one who is thinking of things. You just have to find the right
people who will help your ideas come true. This project was very helpful, I
learned a lot about time management and organization and how every good idea is
a process, it requires lots of research and analyzing before you can just write
down anything.
Thank you to everyone who read this blog and was interested
in how I figured it out….
The Answer:
After completely my professional blog review, I became
really interested in have a personal lock or password entry spot on one credit
card that links multiple cards, accounts, and deposits together to allow for
people to have the physical form of a credit card. This would also take away
from RFID problems or scanners picking up false items and charging the wrong
people. The only new thing I would add to the credit card would be a time out
lock like many cell phones have now, if someone is trying to hack the card,
there should be a time out password that the user sets up when they get the
card, this would help to ensure the protection of the user and the cards, if the users loses
theirs.
