  • Scrum is a structured framework with fixed roles, events, and artifacts to deliver projects in short iterations (Sprints). Kanban focuses on visualizing workflows and optimizing continuous delivery with no set roles or iterations. Lean emphasizes eliminating waste and improving efficiency, often applied alongside other frameworks like Kanban. Sprints, a core element of Scrum, are time-boxed iterations used to complete a set amount of work. While Scrum is highly prescriptive, Kanban and Lean are more flexible, focusing on flow and value delivery rather than fixed time constraints or roles. Each framework serves different team and project needs.
  • The waterfall methodology is not suitable for complex projects, as it is rigid, whereas complex projects have constantly changing requirements 
  • Kanban framework uses columns to represent parts of work such as "to do", "in progress" and "completed"
  • spiral methodology has 4 repeating stages
    1. planning
    2. risk analysis
    3. development
    4. evaluation
  • the evaluation is usually done by key stakeholders such as clients, and customers. These are then repeated over and over, each time with a better product coming out
  • RAD is an agile software development process that emphasises prototype releases and revisions as quickly as possible, unlike waterfall, it priorities feedback over precise planning

Test yourself 241  A botnet aims to take control of digital systems. It is a type of malware that allows a cyber security attacker to take control of someone's system without their knowledge.   The aim of a DOS attack is to make a network inaccessible to users. It does this by flooding the network with traffic which in turn slows its speeds down to a point where it is basically unusable.  One of the main differences between a DOS attack and a DDOS attack is a DDOS attack tends to use multiple devices to try and infiltrate a network. The types of networks that are usually under threat from these would be ones like websites, banks, and payment websites.   Some of the main websites that are targeted by DDOS attacks would be ones like banks and payment websites.   Test yourself 242 One way of trying to find a password is using a dictionary software.
