1. Passphrase Manager

ANS: One of the most beneficial factors of using passphrase manager is that we don’t have to have an
excellent memory which implies that everyone can use the most recent password security standard.

 Disadvantages

So we have to be aware of common security threats like Dictionary Attacks,
Insider breaches , Credential leaks and many more.

I believe authenticity provided by our own body gestures and biometrics which are unique to every
individual might be impossible to crack by the person looking forward to steal our information. So
that’s why the above methods are best suited to protect the data.

Why won't you use other methods?


 Other methods including PIN based or numerical locking system are not that secure and I have
heard of instances in which they were very easily hacked .

Activity 2 of 2: (50 marks for 250+ words)


 What is the price of free?
A documentary picturizing the life of Kailash Satyarthi, a Nobel Prize winner. In his whole life he
took efforts to create awareness among people to save the children from working below age.
Liberating children from child labour became his motto. In the price of free, instances involving
rescue of children from caged working sites and employers who hire children without their consent
are shown. Kailash started BACHPAN BACHAAO AANDOLAN- one of its kind movement to create
awareness among people to stop and discourage child labour from a street of Delhi, the capital city
of country INDIA to whole over the world.
He during his whole life uplifted the impoverished children and helped them in getting the
education, food and shelter until the time they are adults. He filed cases against employers or
factory owners who oppressed children and with the help of law enforcement agencies and
judiciary, got the children out of many premises who exploit children.
He launched different magazines to create awareness among national and international
communities against child labour. He aimed at making every child in this world free, safe and
educated.
During his journey as an activist, former engineer gathered 200 plus supporters initially to carry out
mass movement for protecting children. Then gradually as the world got attracted to the steps
taken by him and his team, he was presented on the screen in front of global cinema.
His passion gained international support for his philosophy that each child should be allowed ro
embrace their childhood and that is the message that this documentary gives.
