1.0Rationale
(Importance of the project, in about 30 to 50 words. This is a modified version of
the
earlier one written after the work)
A Restaurant management system (HMS) is a software solution designed to streamline
Restaurant operations, from reservations and check-ins to billing and housekeeping. It
centralizes data, enabling efficient management of guest information, room availability,
bookings, and payments. An HMS improves service speed, reduces manual errors, and
allows personalized guest experiences by tracking preferences and history. Key features
often include inventory management, reporting, billing, and role-based access for data
security. With real-time updates and insightful analytics, an HMS helps Restaurant s
enhance guest satisfaction, maximize occupancy, and improve operational efficiency,
making it an essential tool for modern hospitality management.

IOS :
Title: macOS Security Overview
macOS is built with a strong focus on security, offering multiple layers to protect your
data. One of its key features is FileVault, which encrypts your entire hard drive,
ensuring that only you can access your files. Gatekeeper helps keep your system
safe by allowing only trusted apps from the Mac App Store or verified developers to
be installed. For added protection, System Integrity Protection (SIP) prevents malware
from modifying critical system files.
macOS also includes XProtect, an automatic malware scanner, and offers Touch ID
and strong password protection for quick and secure access. Additionally, Apple's
privacy controls allow you to manage app permissions, controlling which apps
can access your camera, location, or microphone. To keep everything up to
date, macOS regularly checks for security updates, ensuring your system is
always protected from the latest threats.
Stay safe by utilizing these built-in tools and best practices!
16
Windows
Title:WindowsSecurityOverview
Windows offers robust security features designed to protect your
device and data. Windows Defender Antivirus provides real-time
protection against malware, spyware, and other threats. It works
seamlessly with Firewall & Network Protection to block
unauthorized network access.
BitLocker encrypts your hard drive, ensuring that even if your
device is lost or stolen, your data remains secure.
Windows Hello offers biometric authentication with facial
recognition or fingerprint scanning, adding an extra layer of
security. The Action Center alerts you to potential security risks,
and Windows Update ensures that your system regularly receives
the latest security patches.
Windows also includes App & Browser Control to block malicious
websites and apps, as well as Controlled Folder Access to
protect sensitive files from ransomware. By staying up-to-date
17
with Windows security features and best practices, you can
maintain a secure and smooth computing experience.
18
Ubuntu :
Title: Ubuntu OSSecurityOverview
Ubuntu offers strong security features designed to protect your
system and data. One key tool is AppArmor, which provides
mandatory access control, restricting applications from accessing
sensitive files and resources. UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)
makes it easy to configure and manage firewall rules, while
SELinux enhances security with detailed access controls for
processes and files.
Ubuntu also encourages regular updates, with the Software
Updater ensuring that your system receives the latest security
patches. Disk Encryption with LUKS ensures that your data
remains protected in case of theft or loss.
For additional protection, sudo enforces administrative
privileges, requiring a password for any system-level changes.
The Ubuntu Security Team actively monitors and releases
security fixes for vulnerabilities, ensuring your system stays
secure over time.
By leveraging these built-in security features and
19
following best practices, Ubuntu provides a secure and
reliable environment for everyday use.
