1. List any two advantages of online reservation systems for consumers.
Ans. Two advantages of online reservation systems are:
Ð Convenient: The user/consumer can book tickets at any time and from any location—from home, the office, while
travelling, and so on. All that is required of the user is a computer, Internet access, and a payment card (credit, debit,
etc.). The user saves time and energy normally spent on physically going to a booking office at the specified times, finding
parking for a car, etc., and standing in line at the booking office. It is easier to make changes online to reservations, such
as cancellations, especially for users with special needs.
Ð Security: Most online reservation sites require users to create a profile and choose a username and password. Thus, until
their password is secure, the information remains secure.
2. How can you make your password more secure?
Ans. The following are some actions that can be taken to make passwords more secure:
Ð Make your password complex by using mixed case, numbers, and special characters. As a result, automated attacks
become less effective by experimenting with alternative character combinations.
Ð Passwords should not be left lying around, and they should not be shared with friends.
ÐÐNever use the names of near and dear ones as passwords.
