Computer Forensics and the Grocery Delivery Service

Overview: My idea is to create a delivery service that delivers groceries to college students with a website that keeps track of what they have previously ordered as well as provide ideas for recipes they can use based on what is ordered.


Computer Forensics and the Delivery Service:


This idea is primarily based through a website that users can sign into when they would like to make an order.  Users will have to create something similar to a profile to use the service.  This way, all of their past orders will be kept track of and be easily readable  for review.  However, with the creation of a profile, privacy becomes an issue, especially when using the internet to purchase something.  Many people have become very good at stealing people's credit cards and other information from the internet and profiles.  As a company that uses online purchasing and some sort of a profile, I would have to utilize some sort of privacy for my customers so that they know I am taking steps to ensure their personal information not be available for anyone who wants it.  


To ensure the customers that their information will not be available for anyone who wants it, I will utilize software and other protection to keep their information private.  I would hate to buy something off the internet only to find out a few days later that my credit card number has been stolen because of an unsecured website.  And as a business, it would not be good credibility if one of my customers had their credit card number stolen.  


On the other hand, if there was an issue in which case the government contacted me about on of my customers, I would be obligated to give that information away.  But i would make sure my customers know that their information will be kept confidential and that the service and website is a safe and secure one.
