One of the most important objectives of informationsecurity systems is to secure the confidential information, which includes personal identificationnumber, personal data, as well as graphical information like photo, fingerprint. Securinginformation can only be done through the use of cryptography technology, which involvesencryption of the information before transmission and then successful reproduction of theinformation at the receiving end.

The BEST program isdifferent than many robotics type programs in that the cost to the schools is minimized.The local BEST Hub provides their schools with returnable kits and non-returnable kitsto be used to construct the robot for that year’s competition. The non-returnable kits, inthis case, consist of a relatively large box of materials to be used in construction. Theseare not robot kits that are assembled. The robots must be built from scratch with the rawmaterials provided. The game is different every

orperiodic table phase);(4) isolation and test of phenomena, with implied reproducibility by independent observers;(5) quantification (classical physics phase).Even the first of these is commonly acknowledged as "science" when applied to a traditional areaof study (e.g. biology). Many areas of science cannot reach the final "quantification" stage inwhich mathematical relationships are formulated. Engineering design, the process of designing,is obviously such an area, but this observation must be qualified by the connections to otherknowledge. Designing as an area of scientific investigation, codification of knowledge andtheorizing can, in parts, not even reach stage 4, because the human element is not strictlyreproducible – humans are idiosyncratic
