In the article “Creating a Criminal”, Michael Kingston targets California voters to argue that the new law, Section 598b of the California Penal Code, is simply a law that discriminates a minority group.

Meaning that there are women or minors who by their own will want to abort. It has also authorized, people to purchase supplemental coverage for elective abortion and that would require a separate premium to be paid and a separate contract to be signed. The Tea Party Rep. Jonathan Stickland, was not against the bill, he wanted “a different anti-abortion amendment and exchange it for giving SB 575 a chance at passage by getting it out of the House State Affairs Committee” (Eaton). Isn’t Jonathan Stickland a Christian? So why does he want this bill to be approved? Is he really Pro-Life? Or maybe he thinks he’s doing the right thing? Seems some of the women that are pregnant don’t want their baby, so he believes they should have the opportunity to decide what they want to do. Also, they 're not ready to be a parent and this bill will help them take the easy way out, an abortion.

Information security is the protection of information against accidental or malicious disclosure, modification or destruction. Information is an important, valuable asset of IDI which must be managed with care. All information has a value to IDI. However, not all of this information has an equal value or requires the same level of protection. Access controls are put in place to protect information by controlling who has the rights to use different information resources and by guarding against unauthorised use. Formal procedures must control how access to information is granted and how such access is changed. This policy also mandates a standard for the creation of strong passwords, their protection and frequency of change.
