DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF REAL TIME DISASTER AND INFERNO REPORT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

CHAPTER ONE/INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background To The Study

Online disaster report and management system  is a web based application that enables organization to observe, analyze, and store information of disasters. The system is basically design to benefit modern technology to standardize, organize and manage the data and information about fire disasters. Most of the fire service stations in this century most especially our case study, their current system of storing information is not a computerize system all their works are done manually. In the current work is very difficult, because each and every record is writing into a book, deletion, changes etc. so this research work is carried out in other to realize this, it aims at making it possible to reach the data quickly during and after a disaster. The frequency and therefore the risk of the last decades, parallel to and generated by the development of communities with the advancement of human civilization, fire disaster has been a prime concern. Therefore, with the growing of modern computer technology, fire service stations most especially Sokoto state fire service as (case study) needs to embrace and properly utilize this technology in order to ensure effectiveness and efficiency in their activities.

1.2 Statement of the problem

Records and Information management has in the recent past received increasing support and attention in the public sector across the globe as governments embrace information & communication technologies in the management of their corporate records. There are excessive amount of problems militating against effective prompt service delivery of fire service and safety management. As it has being observed that the conventional method used in preparing and managing disaster report has resulted to the following problems;

1. Inability to access disaster report anytime and anywhere
2. Time consuming and costly to produce reports
3. Records are usually hard to retrieve and there is usually cases where records are lost due to carelessness and misplace of files.
4. Lack of effectiveness in manual method of record keeping.

1.3 Aim And Objectives Of The Study

The aim of the study is to Design and Implementation of Real Time Disaster and Inferno Report Management System

The objectives of this study can be simplified as follows;

1. To design and implement a web base system to be easy to access at anytime they want any report
2. To design and implement a web base system to provide adequate security for their document
3. To design and implement a web base system that will totally reduce paper work and produce database to keep their works intact.
4. Timely and quality report to managers for decisions making.
5. To monitor and observe the current status of environment through the report generated.

1.4 Limitations of the study

The study was limited by scarcity of literature because few studies have been done on electronic records and document management systems in Nigeria

 

1.5  Significance of the study

The study findings would assist Nigeria Fire service to strengthen EDRMS implementation strategies by emphasizing more specifically on management of electronic records and reports as a vital component in scaling up efficiency and effectiveness in service delivery in Organizations.

 

 1.6 Operational definition of terms

Electronic Document & Records Management Systems – This is a system that can manage the entire lifecycle of records, from creation through to disposal, and allows for the implementation of records management tools such as a business classification scheme and retention and disposal schedule.

Electronic Document Management System – It’s a system designed to organize business files and records digitally, whether they started out in paper form or were generated by software applications

Electronic Record – A record generated or received by NEMA in digital format that can be manipulated transmitted or processed by a computer.

Records Management – is the planning, controlling, directing, organizing, training, promoting, and other managerial activities involved in records creation, maintenance and use, and disposition in order to achieve adequate and proper documentation of the policies and transactions of the NEMA and effective and economical management of its operations.

NETWORK SECURITY:ENSURING MAXIMUM PROTECTION THROUGH FIREWALL

 ABSTRACT

The connection of an internal network to an external network such as Internet has made it vulnerable to attacks. One class of network attack is unauthorized penetration into network due to the openness of networks. It is possible for an attacker or hackers to sum access to an internal network, this pose great danger to the network and network resources. Our objective and major concern of network design was to build a secured network, based on software firewall that ensured the integrity and confidentiality of information on the network. We proposed an Object-Oriented Methodology and developed an improved software based solution that allows all the inbound and outbound traffic to pass through the firewall. The firewall in turn determines which traffic should be allowed in or out of the network. The firewall algorithm was implemented using Java programming language, which was based on java security architecture. It also utilizes the concept of XML and HTML programming which enables network communication over the Internet.

Chapter one/Introduction

Computer network is the engineering discipline concerned with communication between computer system and devices. The purposes of networking are exchange of data and resources sharing. With network, large volume of data can be exchanged through both short and long-range connections. Likewise computer resources such as hardware (printers, scanner etc.) and software can be remotely shared among network hosts.

With increase reliance on computer network, calls for serious monitoring of the traffic in and out of the system network. Attacker on the internet could break into the network and do harm in a number of ways; they can steal or damage important data, damage individuals computer or their entire network, and use the internal network computer resources. Due to some of these security threats, there was the need to build a defensive mechanism that ensures that attackers and their likes are not allowed into the network. Firewalls are designed to stop unwanted or suspected traffics from flowing into the internal network. Sets of rules are applied to control the type of networking traffic flowing in and out of the system. This would ensure that attackers have no access to the internal network.

This thesis is organized in four chapters. Chapter 2 provides theoretical background information about firewalls, roles, controls and their impact in network security; a comprehensive literature review on how network traffic can be monitored in order to prevent an unauthorized access to internal network. Chapter 3, we proposed and developed an improved software based solution that allows all the inbound and outbound traffic to pass through the firewall which, in turn determines which traffic should be allowed in or out of the network using object-oriented methodology. Chapter 4, Firewall security system was implementation using software-based solution. The use of Java programming language and the concept of xml and html programming were considered in order to achieve our objectives.

1.1 Statement of Problem

The problem to be solved is the problem of organizations network. What can firms do to protect their network over potential threats against the “resources” they share on the network?

1.2 Objectives

1. To developed a firewall system to block unauthorized access to the network and prevent malicious attack which could lead to data loss
2. To build a secured network, based on software firewall to protect network resources and ensured the integrity and confidentiality of information on the network are not compromised

1.3 Significance of the Study

The significance of this study is to show how a firewall could prevent attack and protect network resources which will make harder for an attacker to penetrate into the system. The system will be able to offer online services. The probability of exploring vulnerability will be reduced to low risk and the system will be more stable

Automated Result Mailing System

Mail is a system for physically transporting documents and other small packages. Automated mailing system is to provide a communication system in an organization, which takes the chance of establishing a channel for sending and receiving information between the users. The aim of this project is to provide a means of sending mail in computer science department. The present system faces some challenges which are lecturers do come to HOD’s office to receive mail or information which is a convenience to both the staff and the HOD in the department. This prompt the development of the new system that will replace the existing one by solving all problems associated with the manual system. Structured System Analysis and design method is the methodology used in designing this project. The system will be programmed using PHP and MySQL as the database. An implementation of this project will not only create a convenience system but also manage mail and information in the department..
