There were four milestones for this semester-long project. The first milestone was a Risk Assessment Report Draft, which aimed to create a risk assessment report for managers in a company. The second milestone was a revised Risk Assessment Report. The third milestone was to apply penetration testing on a company\\\’s server to determine risks and vulnerabilities within the server. The fourth milestone was to create mitigations for the risks and vulnerabilities in milestone three. This project taught me the importance of cybersecurity because our team was able to find multiple vulnerabilities with no information, prior to accessing the server.

MIS3406 Research Project

The goal of the project was to conduct research on cloud computing and cloud application deployment that was not covered in class. I chose to compare AWS with Google Cloud Platform for the first part and then mobile cloud computing for the second. The research was simple for the former since it was a comparison between what we are familiar with and a platform that is essentially the same. The issue with research was mobile cloud computing. It’s a topic I am not familiar with so it was difficult learning something new and trying to relate it to our course. What I’ve learned with AWS and Google Cloud Computing is that there is not superior provider, it depends on the unique situation of a business/user. For mobile cloud computing I learned that it is important to consider since mobile devices are becoming more and more of a necessity.

Exploring COVID – 19 API
- Include the goals, results, project URL (if applicable), and what you learned in a brief paragraph.
The goal of this project was to retrieve the data about COVID-19 from the API endpoint and show that data to the user. We also then had to type at least two paragraphs on our summary of findings and conclusions of the analysis of the data. The project URL is below:
http://misdemo.temple.edu/tuk82393/PRO-points-Covid-project/
By retrieving the data from the API, one would be able to learn many statistics about COVID-19 for each country such as total Covid cases, number of people recovered, total deaths, and total number of tests. By retrieving the data from the API and displaying the data on my webpage, I was able to learn about the total population, total cases, total recovered, and total deaths for each country. I was also able to learn what the highest number of cases were by continent and the highest deaths by continent. For example, Europe has the highest total amount of cases in the data with 44,208,119 cases. I also learned that Europe has the highest number of deaths by continent of 1,006,701 deaths. On my page, you will be able to enter any name of a country from the API and once you press “Submit” you will get this data for each country:
- Population
- Cases
- Recovered
- Deaths
There are some insights that can be taken away from the data as well. For example, one can decide to avoid traveling to Europe as they have the highest cases and highest deaths by continent.

MIS 2402: Web Application Development – PRO Points Project
- Include the goals, results, project URL (if applicable), and what you learned in a brief paragraph.
- Conducted research on an API, developed a working proof of concept, and provided a recommendation as to how the API could be used in an application for business or entertainment purposes. This was also a great opportunity to further explore some of the concepts of programming.
- Once approved, the description is automatically displayed in a post on your e-portfolio.
- Recommendation
- Going forward with the current situation in the world, such a structure or even a modified version of this could be used by governments or other institutions to keep track of the COVID numbers in the world/country/state. This could also be used by governments to raise awareness towards medical institutions in order to have them prepare for unexpected situations with medical provisions such as beds, treatment facilities, etc. In addition, if implemented right, this could be used as a way to identify hot spot areas and take measures in containing/controlling those areas instead of going into country-wide lockdowns and resulting in unhealthy economies.
Data & Analytics Write up

The goals of this project is to research a current topic in Data Analytics and display my ability to understand and describe the topic to future employers. The topic I decided to research was about Natural Language Processing. What I learned from this project was that there are huge advancements in Natural Language Processing such as Neural Networks can now extract information from large bodies of text incredibly quickly. They’re able to classify text into different categories, determine sentiment about text, and perform analysis on the similarity of text data. In the end, all of that information can be stored in a single feature vector of numbers. As a result, NLP becomes a powerful tool in Data Science. Huge datastores of text, not just one-word answers but full-on paragraphs, can be transformed into numerical data for standard analysis. We’re now able to explore datasets that are far more complex.
Web API
The goal of the project was to implement an API that we have researched upon and develop a working proof of concept with a recommendation on how a business can implement this API.
Recommendation:
The following API used in the project is found at https://weatherstack.com/. This API used in the analysis can be beneficial for many companies. The API gives an accurate timeline of the weather with enhanced and informative data. With the API, companies that use weather analysis can get a range of different data types to have an efficient workplace. Companies in the delivery industry can be highly benefitted from this API. The API gives an accurate timeline of the weather and can be utilized, to conduct their duties safer and efficiently. The API is extremely robust in its data and users can implement several variations to use it to its best potential. Many companies such as Deloitte, Microsoft, Wawa, and much more use this API to better their workflow.
Project :
This project had several errors, and the API uses a subscription basis, the free package has a limited data run of 1000 with an API key. The overall project also implemented slight CSS to have a better view, however, was not able to be processed.
Web API Project
My program was meant to allow up to 4 people to choose which type of cuisine sounded good to them, then the program would find the common preferences, then it would display those along with related links to recipes. I was able to successfully implement this program except for one issue. I wanted the links that were displayed to reflected the user’s food preferences, but I couldn’t get it to work with the time I had. I learned a lot about creating a whole program, because up until this project I mostly worked with individual functions. I also learned a lot about using APIs. I tested a few different APIs to get recipe links so I gained a lot of experience working with them. Overall, I’m very proud of the program I created, I just wish I had more time!
