Mega(Mega.nz) is a cloud storage site by Kim dot Com(real name) after his very popular filesharing site Megaupload.com got shutdown by the government for illegal files on the site. The pros of the Mega is very secure because passwords are a minimum 8 letter password, has to contain a lowercase letter, uppercase letter, a special character and a number. Another pro about the site is that the storage for a free account is 50GB (10GB bandwidth per month) on top of offering 4tb (8tb bandwidth for month) for about $11(8.99 euro) a month as their highest tier of membership. Mega also allows file-sharing, has a client-side AES encryption(browser extension), chat/email services and up to $11,000 (10,000 euro) reward for those who report security issues to the site. The cons of the Mega.nz is that the password are long and difficult to remember since the requirement are so much. On top of that, the password reset process is weird. To reset the password you will have a trusted computer that contain a master key that is sent to you through email upon signup. Without this master key there is no way you can reset your password to access your account.

In your careers we are likely to be called on to work on project on behalf of a company, client, etc. Establishing a detailed, mutual, understanding of all important aspects of the project is a way to learn the client goals and help create a communication that helps achieves that goal. This can be done by determining what the client wants and why, making your own assessment of the situation, defining what you’ll do and how you’ll to the client by describing the key elements of the project, and giving the client a written proposal to that they agree with. Maintaining a productive relationship with your client throughout your project which can better the quality of the project. You can do this by candidly communicating with your client throughout the project, sharing your work but deferring with client. Handing your project off in a way that is helpful for the client.
