Digital Divide
- Basic facilities, structures, equipment, technologies, and services that act as the foundation for economic activity and quality of life.
Infrastructure
- Access to computing such as computers, networking gear and mobile phones. Low-end devices and aging hardware do not have access to the same services as modern high-end devices.
Devices
- Access to computers in schools, the effective use of technology in classrooms and teaching of basic technology skills to students.
Education
- When users take basic precautions to reduce information security risks.
Defensive Computing
- The practice of defending information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction.
Information Security
- Areas where internet services are blocked by telecom companies or government censors.
Blocking
One of the most talked about concept in information technology.
Cloud Computing
Benefits of Cloud Computing
❑ Cloud computing reduces IT infrastructure cost of the company.
❑ Cloud computing promotes the concept of virtualization, which enables server and storage device to be utilized across organization.
❑ Cloud computing makes maintenance of software and hardware easier as installation is not required on each end user’s computer.
a software application developed specifically for use on small devices, wireless computing devices.
Mobile application or mobile app
Is how a user interacts with a device, application, or website. It has undergone a revolution since the introduction of touch screen.
User Interfaces
enables that user to directly interact with what is displayed and removes any intermediate hand-held device like the mouse.
Touch screen
is a process which helps in discovering the informational patterns with data. The field of analytics is a combination of statistics, computer programming and operations research.

IoT means
Internet of Things
describes internet-linked everyday items that perform data collection as well as data transmission and reception operations.
Internet of Things
serve as one example among a range of IoT products which includes smart home devices and connected cars.
Smart Watches
These collect data, like temperature, location, or movement.
Device with Sensors
All IoT communication uses three main options:
Wi-Fi together with Bluetooth and mobile network connections.
Through smart home technology smart lights and security cameras and voice assistants enable homeowners to have more efficient residences.
Smart Homes
incorporates wearable fitness trackers which enhance health management while remote monitoring systems further improve health management.
Healthcare
Manufacturing facilities along with commercial establishments deploy sensors to measure industrial outputs while detecting equipment failures that lead to enhanced operational efficiency.
Factories and Businesses
They benefit from IoT technology which enables traffic lights to function as well as improves waste management and public transportation.
Smart Cities
The IoT system enables farmers to check the conditions of soil together with weather patterns and agricultural irrigation methods.

Capabilities, skills, and culture
The combination of technologies to put parts of information and communication process in society into electronic network are:
▪ E-Government
▪ E-Business
▪ E-Health
▪ E-education
is the overall process of invention, innovation and diffusion of technology or processes.
Technological change (TC) or technological development
covers the invention of technologies (including processes) and their commercialization or release as open source via research and development (producing emerging technologies), the continual improvement of technologies (in which they often become less expensive), and the diffusion of technologies throughout industry or society (which sometimes involves disruption and convergence).
