Security/Authentication: 2 users are added to the forum when the server starts up, upon registering they are given a JSON web token usi...

A research project with the purpose of investigating the perceived data privacy and ethical concerns that arise, due to the rapid development of geo location enabled technologies. This research described how students react to the advancement in location aware technology. The results of the survey included significant statistical analysis using SPSS to test my hypotheses. The findings of my research were formally presented to four senior lecturers. My final year project was also nominated for an award in conjunction with Sun Life Financials. The full research project can be viewed in the link below.                            Grade - 72% Here is a link to the full thesis
