People are the biggest security flaw
Cyber security is a big deal. But all the firewalls and malware scans in the world can’t protect against the biggest security flaw; people.
Looking over the shoulder of someone on the train and within two minutes I found out their name, email address, company they work for, their role, where they live, which bank they are with, three characters from their password, how much they have in their account, their partners name, which charity they support, what sports they are into, and what time they got in a school cross-country race in 2005.
Creativity Techniques A to Z
This A to Z of Creativity and Innovation Techniques, provides an introduction to a range of tools and techniques for both idea generation (Creativity) and converting those ideas into reality (Innovation). Like most tools these techniques all have their good and bad points. I like to think of these creativity and innovation techniques as tools in a toolbox in much the same way as my toolbox at home for DIY. It has a saw, spanner, hammer, knife and all sorts of other things in it, they are all very useful, but you have to pick the right tool (creativity / Innovation technique) for each job.
Designing a basket page to do too many things
The basket page on an ecommerce website serves one purpose. It allows the customer to check that they have everything they want in their order before they click the checkout button and go on to complete their purchase.
We’re also asking the page to allow the customer to:
- Add a donation
- Add Gift Aid
- Apply a coupon code
- Add a add-on product
- See related products
- Continue shopping
With all of these extra elements the page becomes very full, and so difficult to allow the customer to a) know what actions to take on the page, and b) convert. But we’ll get it up and then test the hell out of it.
