4.1 Performance requirements:
● The user must have a device which is at least to play a 144p resolution video.
● The user must have at least 500kbps of net connection in order to play the video
without buffering.

4.2 Saftey requirements:

If there is extensive damage to a wide portion of the database due to catastrophic failure, such as a
server crash, the recovery method restores a past copy of the database that was backed up to
archival storage (typically tape) and reconstructs a more current state by reapplying or redoing the
operations of committed transactions from the backed-up log, up to the time of failure. And in the
 meanwhile, the server switch to the
4.3 software quality Attributes:

▪ MAINTAINABILITY: The developers and a team of software engineers work on
the maintenance and the updates of the site.
▪ USABILITY: The site can be used anywhere if the connectivity to the internet
and a device.

4.5 Security requirements:

Absolutely, applying these security measures to a platform like YouTube is paramount to protect user
data and ensure a secure environment for interactions and transactions. Here's how these measures can be
applied to YouTube:

4.5.1 User Authentication:

- YouTube should implement robust user authentication mechanisms to ensure that only authorized
users can access their accounts. This might involve strong password policies, two-factor authentication, or
biometric verification through devices supporting facial or fingerprint recognition.

4.5.2 Data Encryption:

- Encrypting sensitive data both in transit and at rest is crucial for YouTube. HTTPS protocols can be
used for secure data transmission, and data storage, including user profiles, viewing history, and personal
information, should be encrypted to prevent unauthorized access.

4.5.3 Access Control:

- Implementing role-based access control (RBAC) is essential to restrict user access to specific
functionalities and data based on their roles. This ensures that users only have access to information
pertinent to their privileges.

4.5.4 Secure Storage:

- User data and transaction records should be stored securely using encrypted databases or secure file
systems. Preventing unauthorized access or tampering of this stored data is crucial to maintain user
privacy.

4.5.5 Secure APIs:

- YouTube integrates with various APIs for content delivery, analytics, and third-party services.
Ensuring these APIs follow industry best practices with proper authentication and authorization
mechanisms is vital to prevent misuse or unauthorized access.

4.5.6 Security Compliance:

- Compliance with regulations like GDPR, which protects user data privacy, and standards like PCI-
DSS for payment-related information is crucial. Adherence to these standards ensures that appropriate
security measures are in place to safeguard user data.

4.5.7 Security Testing and Auditing:

- Regular security testing, including vulnerability assessments and penetration testing, should be
conducted to identify and address potential security vulnerabilities in the platform. Additionally, periodic
security audits ensure ongoing adherence to security requirements.
4.5.8 Security Certifications:
- Obtaining industry-recognized security certifications such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2 demonstrates
YouTube's commitment to following established security practices. These certifications reassure users
and stakeholders about the platform's security measures.

Implementing these security measures comprehensively helps YouTube maintain a secure environment
for its users, protecting their data and ensuring a trustworthy platform for content consumption and
interaction.

4.6 BUSSINESS RULES:

Certainly, let's contextualize these aspects specifically for YouTube:

4.6.1 User Registration:

- YouTube typically requires users to comply with age restrictions to create an account and
access certain content. Users are prompted to provide basic information during the
registration process, such as an email address, username, and password.

4.6.2 Transaction Limits:

- While not direct financial transactions, YouTube might enforce limits on video upload
sizes, the number of videos a user can upload per day, or other activities to manage server
load and maintain platform stability.

4.6.3 Know Your Customer (KYC):

- In the context of YouTube, this could align with the verification process for creators
aiming to access monetization features. Creators may need to complete the Partner
Program requirements, which involve verifying their identity and adhering to specific
guidelines.

4.6.4 Role-Based Access:

- YouTube encompasses various roles like viewers, subscribers, creators, moderators, and
administrators. Each role comes with different access levels and permissions. Creators
have access to video management, analytics, and monetization features, while viewers
have access to watching and interacting with content.

4.6.5 Service Availability:

- YouTube's services might vary based on regional licensing agreements and content
restrictions. Certain videos or features might not be available in specific countries due to
copyright or regulatory limitations.

4.6.6 Fraud Prevention:

- YouTube employs automated systems and human moderators to monitor and flag
potentially fraudulent activities such as spam comments, misleading content, or attempts
to manipulate view counts. Accounts engaging in such activities might face suspension or
termination.
4.6.7 Transaction Reversals and Disputes:
- YouTube provides mechanisms for creators to appeal copyright claims or content strikes
through the Content ID system. Users can dispute and request reviews for decisions
affecting their channel monetization or content visibility.

4.6.8 Privacy and Data Usage:

- YouTube has a clear privacy policy explaining how user data is collected, used, and
shared. Users have control over their privacy settings, including managing watch history,
controlling personalized recommendations, and determining visibility for their own
content.
