sprint.
Promotes transparency, inspection, and adaptation.
What are the main artifacts in Scrum? - ANSWERS--Product Backlog: Prioritized list of
features and requirements.
Sprint Backlog: Tasks selected for the current sprint.
Product Increment: The working product delivered at the end of the sprint.
What are the four phases of the SDLC? - ANSWERS--*Planning
Define project objectives
Conduct feasibility studies (technical, economic, operational)
Identify stakeholders and project team
Develop initial project plan and schedule
*Analysis
Gather and document user requirements
Analyze current workflows and data
Identify problems, inefficiencies, and needs
Define functional and non-functional requirements
*Design
Create data models and database design
Design user interfaces and user experiences
Define system architecture (hardware, software, networks)
Specify processing logic and integration points
*Implementation
Write and test the system code
Install and configure hardware/software
Conduct system, integration, and user acceptance testing
, Train users and provide documentation
Deploy the system and monitor its operation
What is a business case? - ANSWERS--A decision-making tool/document that helps
organizations decide whether to invest in an Information System or not.

Sprint Review: Present the increment to stakeholders for feedback.
Sprint Retrospective: Reflect on the sprint to improve the process.
What is malware? - ANSWERS--General term for harmful programs that damage or
disrupt systems.
Viruses: Malicious code that attaches to legitimate files or programs.
Worms: Self-replicates and spreads through networks without user action.
Trojan Horses: Disguised as legitimate software.
Logic bombs: A type of trojan triggered by specific conditions or times.
Ransomware: Locks/encrypts files or systems, demands payment.
Spyware: Secretly collects user information.
What is feasibility analysis? - ANSWERS--Conducted during the Planning Phase of
