4 improvements that I could make upon this website are;
The first improvement i would make would be updating the website weekly by adding newer films so once they have watched the film they could then watch the newest one such as ice age and then ice age 2. The advantage of this make the website alot more popular because it is up-to-date and may interest more people to join. The disadvantage of this is it would take alot more time and effort.
The second improvement i would make would be by making a form so that new customers could enter there age and they'd be given username and password. This is helpful because it will restrict any films they shouldnt watch and will just allow the films that they can purchase. The advantage of this would be that the webiste will be alot more controlled and parents will be able to see what kind of films theire child is watching. The disadvantage of this is that students could lie and put an older age to what they are so they can watch them films.
Another improvement i would make would be that the website will automatically try and help the student try and choose what kind of film they make like on what films they have purhcased in the past. The advantage of this would be that the website will become alot quicker and simplier to use and understand. The disadvantage may be that they may want to watch a different genre or something for a change.
The fourth improvement i would make is that id change the background from a plain black to something more exciting and colourful. This would make the website seem alot more friendly and interesting towards the customer. The advantage of this is that certain things will stand out more and the website will be alot more exciting.

M2
I used navigation to help create my website. I made links to all the pages backwards and forwards which will enable people to access all parts of my website easier and without any trouble. I made sure all the links when clicked on would taker the viewer to the correct page. In my website there is also a form on the reviews page. I have put this on my website so i can improve it and customers can also get their opinions across. You can do that by typing in the film name and then write your review in the comment box below and press enter and that will automatically submit your review. I have added pictures of the films onto the page incase you don't know what film it is. I have also added trailers of each of the films available onto the website so people are able to watch theses trailers through the website by just clicking on the picture of the film. I created my website on Dreamweaver by selecting the features that I wanted on my form for example, a drop down box for people to select a film, a text field for people to enter their comment. I have two buttons on my payments page which are sign in and then enter. Once you have signed in it will let you complete your payments. The final page i have two buttons which will let you sign up and buy films and the other button will let you sign in and access your account.

Data Protection Act;
The data protection act is an act that protects your personal data against threats when you give your details to a service or a company. This act stops people trying to steal off the internet and using it for themselves. If you try and go against the act then you will be prosecuted. The main intent is to protect individuals against misuse or abuse of information about them. The DPA was first composed in 1984 and was updated in 1998.
Security Risks:
Hacking;
The most common way of hacking is gaining access into a server, taking a copy of a credit card database or some other attack.Hacking is the act of breaking in to a computer system and is a criminal offence under the computer misuse. Computer hacking is the most popular form of hacking nowadays, especially in the field of computer security, but hacking exists in many other forms, such as phone hacking, brain hacking, etc. and it's not limited to either of them.
Viruses;
A computer virus is a program or piece of code that is loaded onto your computer without your knowledge and runs against your wishes. Viruses can also replicate themselves. All computer viruses are man-made. A simple virus that can make a copy of itself over and over again is relatively easy to produce. Even such a simple virus is dangerous because it will quickly use all available memory and bring the system to a halt. An even more dangerous type of virus is one capable of transmitting itself across networks and bypassing security systems.
Identity theft;
Identity theft is a crime in which an imposter obtains key pieces of personal information, such as Social Security or driver's license numbers, in order to impersonate someone else. The information can be used to obtain credit, merchandise, and services in the name of the victim, or to provide the thief with false credentials. In addition to running up debt, an imposter might provide false identification to police, creating a criminal record or leaving outstanding arrest warrants for the person whose identity has been stolen.
Security protection mechanisms:
firewalls;
A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. Firewalls can be implemented in both hardware and software, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets. All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.
Secure Socket Layers (SSL);
A Secured Socket Layer, or SSL, is the usual way that a website creates a secure connection with a web browser. Whenever a web surfer visits a secure site that uses SSL technology, it creates an encrypted link between their browser session and the web server. SSL is the industry standard for secure web communication and is used to protect millions of online transactions each day.
