Some breaches to computer security are accidental‚ others are planned intrusions. Some intruders do no damage; they merely access data‚ information or programs on the computer before logging off. Other intruders indicate some evidence of their presence either by leaving a

Security is the number one concern in the information technology world. As the 21st century evolves the technology advances with it as well. Information Security means protecting information and information systems from unauthorized access‚ use‚ disclosure‚ disruption‚ modification‚ or destruction. It revolves around maintaining three basic concepts of information—confidentiality‚ integrity‚ and availability. Other basic concepts such as: nonrepudiation‚ authentication and authorization relate

Defining National Security VS Personal Privacy is a matter of looking at the basic nature of each. From research collected there is a consensus that we need balance. Too much of one hurts the other and vise versa. There are a couple of articles that range from Civil Liberties to the birth of public right to know that support the overall claim. Talks about the effects of censorship in different situations like war and peace will help prove that a balance needs to be forged. The problem here

Some areas of knowledge are defined by their methodologies‚ others by their content. Discuss. To what extent is an area of knowledge defined by their methodology? To understand this question‚ we will first have to understand what methodologies mean in this context. According to my own understanding‚ methodology is the application of a particular procedure in an area of study. It is essentially the path taken to pursue knowledge. Although methodology and content seems to be two separate

One of the plates had mould on it. The mould was in the shape of a ring and the area around the ring seemed to be free of the bacteria staphyloccus. Further research on the mould found that it could kill other bacteria and that it could be given to small animals without any side-effects. However‚ within a year‚ Fleming had moved onto

Surface area Surface area is the measure of how much exposed area a solid object has‚ expressed in square units. Mathematical description of the surface area is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of a curve. For polyhedra (objects with flat polygonal faces) the surface area is the sum of the areas of its faces. Smooth surfaces‚ such as a sphere‚ are assigned surface area using their representation as parametric surfaces. This definition of the surface area is based on methods

Cryptographic Authentication for Real-Time Network Protocols1‚2 David L. Mills3 Abstract This paper describes a new security model and authentication scheme for distributed‚ real-time network protocols used in time synchronization and event scheduling applications. It outlines the design requirements of these protocols and why these requirements cannot be met using conventional cryptography and algorithms. It proposes a new design called autokey‚ which uses a combination of public-key cryptography
