Question 1

Web accessibility means that people with disabilities including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities can use the Web.

Accepted Answer

Web accessibility ensures that people with various disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web, as well as contribute to it.

Question 2

Maintainability means the system functions correctly and provides accurate information.

Accepted Answer

Maintainability refers to how easy it is to maintain and update a system, not to its correctness or accuracy of information.

Question 3

Web accessibility is the degree to which a system is easy to learn and efficient and satisfying to use.

Accepted Answer

Web accessibility specifically refers to making websites and web applications usable for people with disabilities, ensuring they can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web.

Question 4

Maintainability determines future environmental infrastructure requirements to ensure high-quality system performance.

Accepted Answer

Maintainability refers to the ease with which a system can be maintained to correct defects or their causes, repair or replace faulty or worn-out components without having to replace still working parts, prevent unexpected working conditions, and maximize a product’s useful life. It does not directly determine future environmental infrastructure requirements.

Question 5

Flexibility represents the maximum throughput a system can deliver, for example the flexibility of a hard drive represents the size or volume.

Accepted Answer

Flexibility refers to the ability of a system to adapt or adjust to changes, not the maximum throughput or capacity it can deliver.

Question 6

Accessibility refers to the time frames when the system is operational.

Accepted Answer

Accessibility refers to the design of products, devices, services, or environments for people with disabilities, ensuring they can use them effectively.

Question 7

Unavailability occurs when a system is continuously operational at all times.

Accepted Answer

Unavailability refers to the state when a system is not operational or cannot be used, contrary to being continuously operational at all times.

Question 8

Reliability is a system weakness that can be exploited by a threat.

Accepted Answer

Reliability refers to the ability of a system to perform and maintain its functions in routine circumstances, as well as hostile or unexpected circumstances. It is not a weakness but a characteristic that measures the dependability of a system.

Question 9

What is an information MIS infrastructure?

Accepted Answer

An information MIS infrastructure identifies where and how important information, such as customer records, is maintained and secured.

Question 10

Scalability measures how quickly a system performs a process or transaction.

Accepted Answer

Scalability refers to a system's ability to handle increased workload or to be easily expanded to manage workload growth, not how quickly it performs a process or transaction.

Question 11

Scalability refers to the ability of an application to operate on different devices or software platforms, such as different operating systems.

Accepted Answer

Scalability refers to the ability of a system, network, or process to handle a growing amount of work, or its potential to be enlarged to accommodate that growth. It does not specifically refer to the ability to operate on different devices or software platforms.

Question 12

Serviceability means the system quickly transforms to support environmental changes.

Accepted Answer

Serviceability refers to the ease with which a system can be maintained or repaired.

Question 13

A system is called available when it is not operating and cannot be used.

Accepted Answer

A system is considered available when it is operating and can be used, not when it is not operating.

Question 14

Usability is how quickly a third party or vendor can change a system to ensure it meets user needs and the terms of any contracts including agreed levels of reliability, maintainability or availability.

Accepted Answer

Usability refers to how easy and efficient it is for users to interact with a system, product, or website, focusing on the user experience rather than how quickly it can be changed by a third party.

Question 15

Portability describes how well a system can scale up, or adapt to the increased demands of growth.

Accepted Answer

Portability refers to the ability of software to be transferred from one environment or system to another, not to its ability to scale up or handle increased demands. Scalability is the term that describes how well a system can adapt to increased demands.

Question 16

Availability means that people with disabilities including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities can use the web.

Accepted Answer

The correct term for ensuring people with disabilities can use the web is "accessibility," not "availability."

Question 17

The Web accessibility initiative (WAI) brings together people from industry, disability organizations, government, and research labs from around the world to develop guidelines and resources to help make the Web accessible to people with disabilities including auditory, cognitive, neurological, physical, speech, and visual disabilities.

Accepted Answer

The Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) is a project by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) aimed at improving the accessibility of the Internet for people with disabilities. It indeed brings together various stakeholders from around the world to work on guidelines and resources to make the web more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities.

Question 18

Administrator access initiative brings together people from industry, disability organizations, government, and research labs from around the world to develop guidelines and resources to help make the web accessible to people with disabilities including auditory, cognitive, neurological, physical, speech, and visual disabilities.

Accepted Answer

The initiative described is actually the work of the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI), which is part of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The WAI develops standards and guidelines to improve web accessibility for people with disabilities.

Question 19

Availability refers to the varying levels that define what a user can access, view, or perform when operating a system.

Accepted Answer

Availability, in the context of computer systems and cybersecurity, refers to ensuring that authorized users have reliable and timely access to resources and services when needed, not the varying levels of access or permissions.

Question 20

Capacity represents the maximum throughput a system can deliver, for example the capacity of a hard drive represents the size or volume.

Accepted Answer

Capacity in the context of a hard drive refers to the maximum amount of data that the drive can store, which is indeed its size or volume.
