common network threats and provide solution to protect users from threats‚ hackers and ensures that the data travelling across the networks is safe. Introduction: Computer and network security is a new and fast moving Technology and as such‚ is still being defined and most probably will always be “still defined”. Security incidents are rising at an alarming rate every year [Figure - 1]. As the complexity of the threats increases‚ so do the security measures required to protect networks. Data center

CHAPTER TWO NETWORKING SYSTEMS AND LOCAL AREA NETWORKS (LAN) A network is a system of two or more computers that are connected in some manner. Each computer on the network has access to the files and peripheral equipment (such as printers or modems) on all the other computers on the network. The origin of local area networks can be traced‚ in part‚ to IBM terminal equipment introduced in 1974. At that time‚ IBM introduced a series of terminal devices designed for use in transaction-processing

(NY Times 2010) Having its beginnings in military and research facilities in the late 1960’s‚ ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network) slowly evolved into what is now known as the Internet in the 1990’s. Since then is has become the backbone of American and world culture and economics. There is almost no limit to the content available today. Any person with an idea and access to

question of rolling back net neutrality is morally problematic. In this paper‚ I will demonstrate that utilitarianism can be used to show that repealing net neutrality is morally impermissible. In section one of this paper‚ I will provide an overview of net neutrality and show both sides of the argument. In section two‚ I will provide a brief and concise overview of Utilitarianism. In section three‚ I will demonstrate that utilitarianism can defend net neutrality. Net Neutrality is the ability for all

we human cannot afford to lose. Along with the introduction of the Internet‚ social networks were also enhanced and so do mobile devices that linked to the social networks. Examples of social networks are Facebook‚ Twitter‚ Instagram‚ LinkedIn‚ etc. All of these social networks enable users develop a closer relationship among each another‚ no matter how much distance between the users. By using these social networks‚ users also can share their latest status‚ upload their latest pictures‚ instant message

BUTTERFLY NETWORK Butterfly network is a network with 2q nodes and q + 1 columns as an unfolded q-cube in order to facilitate the discussion‚ visualization‚ and analysis of hypercube routing algorithms. However‚ a butterfly network can be viewed as a parallel processing architecture in its own right. A butterfly architecture (Fig. A‚ left) has p = 2 q(q + 1) processors of maximum degree d = 4‚ a diameter of 2q = ∪(log p)‚ and a bisection width of ( – 1)2 q+1 + 0(2 q) = ∪(p/log p). A wrapped

Network Security Some DoS attacks can be avoided by applying vendor patches to the software that has been compromised. Another way to deal with DoS attacks in the case of an attack coming from a number of known IP addresses is to put up a rule to drop all incoming traffic from those known attackers. Yet another way to deal with these types of attacks is to set up packet filters. This will act as a proxy for connections. Once the handshake is validated it will be forwarded to the correct destination

There is nothing more important in any business than securing your network topology from hardware‚ design and software. This plan is called network hardening and this plan needs to be incredibly detailed with how the network will be secured in each area. The first step to the network hardening plan resides in how you will build the network and then from there how you will secure each section of the network. This paper will discuss access control measures‚ encryption‚ PKI‚ certificates‚ OS hardening
