Data Modeling
Group 4
Data Security:

● is the protection of data and programs in computers


and communication systems against unauthorized
access, loss, destruction, disclosure, or transfer
whether accidental or intentional.
● it focuses on maintaining the confidentiality, integrity,
and availability of data throughout its lifecycle
● is vital across various sectors to prevent financial
losses, and safeguard critical information from cyber
threats.
Illustration: Consider a scenario where a financial institution collects and
stores sensitive customer data, including personal information and financial
records. To ensure data security:

Access Control Implement strict access controls where only


authorized personnel can view or modify this data.

Encryption Transforming data into a code to prevenet


unauthorized access. This ensures that even if the
data is intercepted, it remains unreadable without the
decryption key.
Data Modeling:

● is the process of creating visual


representations to organized and structure
data effectively, making it more accessible
and useful for various applications.
● it involves developing diagrams to show
how data elements interact and relate
within a system.
Illustration: Imagine you are tasked with designing a database for a company’s
customer management system.

To create a model, first, you would start by identifying key entities such as
“customers,” “orders,” and “products.” These entities represent the main data
elements within the system.
Next, you would define the relationships between these entities:
• For instance, a customer can place many orders, but each order is associated with only
one customer.
• This relationship is crucial for understanding how data flows and connects within the
system.

Additionally, you would outline attributes for each entity:


• The “customers” entity might include attributes like (CustomerID, Name, and Email)
providing detailed information about each customer.
• These attributes help to define the specific data points associated with each entity.
