4. Summary:

The article is about a new system that lets online services and websites protect peoples passwords. What it does is it separates the information into two different locations.

This way if a hacker does try to steal the information he has to break into two different systems. This way it is protecting the information better.

5. Reaction:

  I feel that this is a great new thing because it will keep peoples information safer. I think this is a great achievement for the people of the creating program.

It will keep my information safer from people online because someone had broke into my account from Japan. This will hopefully keep this from ever happening again. I believe that hackers will figure away around this system.

6. World Impact:

 This event will impact the world in a good way. It will keep peoples information a lot safer.  It will hopefully keep cut down on some of the robbery's that are done electronically.

This will change how hackers  have to break into information therefore making criminals a lot smarter. This will also make it easier for police or other law enforcement to catch these hackers.
