It is a tree structure, which shows a subdivision of effort required to achieve an objective. The methodology behind the construction of WBS is the system analysis, system design, and system development. The WBS helps in analyzing the system and the project.

Comparison between the Gantt chart and PERT PERT (program evaluation and review technique) is one of the statistical tool that is used in project management to analyze
- 4. and represent the tasks involved in the completion of a given project while a Gantt chart is a horizontal tabular bar chart which shows the project schedule that is it shows the start and finish dates of the terminal elements of the project and summary elements of a project. The Gantt chart may be used in status reporting to show and present how much of the plan has been completed by displaying and showing the progress of an activity. The information received from a Gantt chart is more helpful because, the information in a Gantt chart is graphical hence easily understood than in the PERT which just shows arrows and nodes. It is easier to draw and present the information in a Gantt chart and be used in the analysis of the project because it shows both the estimated and actual time the project takes compared to the PERT which only shows the earliest start time and Latest end time of an activity. Gantt charts are simple and easy to read while PERT may not be easily understood. The PERT provides useful information since it can show the critical path and the critical activities hence helpful in planning the resources of the project compared to the Gantt chart which only shows the activity duration and the predecessors. When using the PERT, it shows the information on the activities and shows the slack activities and when to start and end in case of a dummy activity. Application of Gantt charts and PERTS Gantt charts are used when planning for small projects while PERT can be used when planning for large projects. This is because many interlinking activities are difficult to represent in the Gantt chart and also the duration may be large to be represented. Importance of Critical path
- 5. i. It will display all the activities of the project and it will help to plan on how to do the activities such that the slack activities can be started either earlier or late. ii. It can help to reschedule the resources of noncritical activities to the critical activities hence accelerating the project activities. iii. The critical path can be used to calculate the standard deviation of the project and the covariance to know how correlated the activities in the project are. iv. The critical path is what determines the duration of the project since it shows the activities that shows takes the longest duration between the start and the end of the project.

Gantt and Pert charts is the main core mobile app essential components very crucial when handling the project, it enhances effective analysis, communication and visualization of a carried out project. Risk is the main core limitation of this mobile app as it can be very vulnerable to high levels of misuse.
- 6. Functionality and vulnerabilities are type mainly evident core scope of risk according to this context. 1. Activity monitoring 2. Unauthorized dialing 3. Unauthorized network connectivity 4. UI impersonation 5. System modification 6. Logic 7. Data leakage 8. Unsafe data storage 9. Unsafe data transmission 10. Hardcoded password Inherent schedule flaws and requirement inflations are the top most risk each projects is ultimately exposed and subjected to. Sending of messages, microphone recording and data storage are the main ultimate likelihood assessment aspects of risk ascertained under the activity monitoring risk. Technical risk is the most appropriate impact based on the approach as continuous changing requirement affects the timeline of the projects accomplishment. Customers and suppliers are the main ideal owners of the risk for need trackers. Project initiation and project planning is the main proper methodology to control the monitoring activity risk (Gunasekera, 2012). Mobile payment and SMS spread rate is the main assessed authorized dialing risk encountered under this approach. Change in premiums and payment rates impacts on the nature of parties’ terms and conditions prompting toll fraud crime. The company and consumers are the main appropriate owners of authorized dialing and payment risk. Project monitoring and control is the main ultimate strategic approach through which performances and changes can be managed ultimately (Brown et-al, 2013). Spyware is one of the main fundamental likelihood to unauthorized network connectivity risk. Attacker’s benefits through this approach send data; it is very cognizant for the organization and customers who are the main ultimate owners to initiate the implementation security measures strategies (Brown
- 7. et-al, 2013). Malicious app and phishing attacks are the main UI impersonation risk assessed. UI legitimacy is the main core scope through which victims should be very clear and concise over authenticity of the information and end issues with the attackers. Proxy and bank app are the main ultimate owners, initiation plan project strategy is the most viable approach through which this menaces can be managed (Gunasekera, 2012). Malicious application and configuration changes are the main likelihood of system modification risk. Configuration changes enhance the possibilities of attack and thus rootkit and APN proxy are the main core owners. Planning, execution and monitoring and control project are the main appropriate strategic mechanism through which configuration changes and malicious attacks can be handled significantly (Bergman et-al, 2013). Malicious activity is one of is the ultimate assessed logic risk. Classic technique can influences occurrences of suspicious and malicious activity which compromise the confidentiality of the message or data. Project monitoring and control are the appropriate strategic mechanism through which risk mitigation based on this level can be ascertained. Inadvertent and legitimate apps can definitely enhances sensitive data leakage risk. Confidential information can leak to third party causing harmful effect to the victim as the attackers can definitely expose. Phones and customers are the main ultimate viable owners. Implementation of security tracking measures is the main project execution strategic approach through which this vice can be controlled (Hartley & Wong, 2015). Mobile apps should definitely store data in an encrypted form; failure to conceptualization of the viable aspect enhances unsafe sensitive data storage risk. Pin numbers and passwords are the main ultimate mechanism through sensitive data can be secured from attackers. Banks and online users are the main owners and
- 8. therefore the main strategic approach to ascertain this issue is through project monitoring and control. Wireless communication is commonly known for higher insecurity to data transmission risk. Mobile devices are the main owners and thus it is very significant to that sensitive data is perfectly encrypted in order to safeguard the data. Invalid certificates should be ascertained appropriately in order to fundamentally control and manage the issue (Hartley & Wong, 2015). Additionally, password ineffective is the main likelihood assess to hardcoded password risk. MasterCard is the main owner and thus it is very crucial and necessary beware of reverse engineering which can absolutely compromise the security and authenticity of the information and data. Project monitoring and control is the top most strategic approach through which issue can ascertained extensively (Gonzalez, 2015). References Bergman, N., Stanfield, M., Rouse, J., & Scambray, J.
