Your team is now ready to prototype the Section 508-validated application being developed for U.S. Department of Homeland Security field officers to check potential immigrants for connections to criminal or terrorist behavior. Remember, this application must meet these requirements:
· Conform with Section-508 accessibility guidelines.
· Allow wireless real-time bidirectional data transfer and database queries with secure servers.
· Have a secure login and, after two minutes of non-use, have autolocking that reactivates a secure login.
· Account for the fact that officers work on any day and at any time in offices, from vehicles, and on foot along the U.S. border and in cities across the country.
Instructions
Create a 3–5-page prototyping plan for your application you are developing. Include these components in your plan:

· Describe the following and explain the rationale for your decisions, supported by research:
. Interface choices such as menu-driven, GUI, or object-oriented.
. Methods for input/output.
. Supported devices.
· Explain the following in detail and justify why you made these choices, supported by research:
. How the application will process user mistakes and errors.
. How you will implement application security.
· List the following tools, and explain why you chose these tools, supported by research.
. Two specific software tools used to determine programming bugs.
. Three automated tools will be used to validate accessibility.
· Explain two of the UX prototyping techniques you will use, and justify your choices, supported by research.
