INTRODUCTION What is computer security? Protection of computing systems and the data that they store or access. According to Wikipedia, computer security, it also known as cyber security or IT security, is the protection from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide or as well as of computer systems from the theft or damage to the hardware, software or the information on them. Why computer security is important? It is essential because it enables people to carry out their jobs, education
Network Security Networks are the systems that are formed by computers linked to share data and resources. Before 90s, network were relatively uncommon and general public was not made-up heavy internet-users. During this times, security was not critical. However, with more and more sensitive information being placed on networks, Network Security has grown in importance. To be specific the network security is just the protection of our data and securing them over the internet or even intranet. There
Introduction : The history of information security begins with computer security . The need for computer Security — that is, the need to secure physical locations, hardware, and software from threats. Despite the fact that information security plays an vital role in shielding the information and wealth of an organization. we habitually hear news about the security incidents, such as mutilation of websites, as well as server hacking and data escapeing.The organizations require to be entirely thoughtful
stories are full of computer security concerns, home computer users do not have a clear image about computer security. Home computers are target for hackers because of their vulnerabilities. Hackers change home computers into what is know a Zombie army which facilities them to attack other computers on the network by using smart software. Moreover, Home computers are subject to other threats like identity theft. Therefore, this report focuses on the importance of Home Computer Security by shedding light
2.1 Security According to (Whitman, 2011), Security is a act to be protected from adversaries. There are some layers of security : - Physical security - Personal security - Operations security - Communications security - Network security - Information security 2.2 Information System Information System defined as a system of information in the company that is used to retrived and manage data to produce a useful information to support the company, employees, customers and all associated company
Introduction As there are many events in field of computer security , few of them are satisfiable while some are worthwhile just like a successful courtroom experience. Investigating a computer security incident leads to a legal proceeding such as court proceeding, where the digital evidence and documents obtained are likely used as exhibits in the trial. There are specific and special rules existing for ensuring that the evidence which are likely used as exhibits are genuine and exactly the same
Computer security largely depends on appropriate user behavior, their conscious thinking, and actions they take. This exploratory study examines the relationship between computer-related causal attributions and security behavior (i.e., the use of security technology and security-conscious care behavior). Attribution theory deals with the subjectively perceived causes of events and is commonly used for explaining and predicting human behavior and motivation. Individuals’ attributions could either
studying a computer related course perceive computer security in their lives and actions? 1.3.2 Research sub questions • What is computer Security? • What is security in a physical context. • What is computer Security awareness ? • Benefits of computer security awareness? • What are the results of the students current perception of computer security • Why students may perceive computer security the way they do? • What resources are in place to assist with better computer awareness and security on campus
twenty-first century, anybody could do anything with technology because people don't take computer security seriously. If people don't know computer security, they should start off simple. Start off by encrypting passwords so their harder to hack. Then, they should install password generators. The Passwords will be stronger, and this means it's more secure. On the consumption that you still want your computer to be secure, you should install anti-virus software. Anti-virus software fights off viruses

Following code is vulnerable to buffer over flow attack…..? There are two lines in the following code that are erroneous; 1. While ((buffer [i++] = getchar()) ! = ‘\n’) {}; In this line, it is not being checked that whether the characters that are being entered by the user are of which size. Either they are less than
INTRODUCTION In computer security, a vulnerability is a weakness which allows an attacker to reduce a system information assurance. Vulnerability is the intersection of three elements a system susceptibility or flaw, attacker access to the flaw and attacker capability to exploit the flaw. Web application penetration testing works by using manual or automated penetration tests to identify any vulnerability, security flaws or threats in a web application. The tests involve using any of the known

Summary on my research on Outsource Computer Security What is computer security? According to www.cert.org, “Computer Security is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of your computer. It involves the process of safeguarding against intruders from using your computer resources for malicious intents or for their own gains (or even gaining access to them accidentally). It encompasses several security measures such as software programs like anti-virus suites, firewalls, and user
CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.0 BACKGROUND OF STUDY Computer systems have been used to run multiple applications and serve multiple users since its invention. They have mostly been used to host information for several users at different levels of an organization in recent times. Computer systems that are used for this purpose can be referred to as Information systems. An information system is an electronic database designed to accept, store, process or analyze data and to deliver results, usually
ANSWER ASSIGNMENT 2 COMPUTER SECURITY QUESTION 1 PERSONAL VIEW In this new era globalization everything need a technology. In addition, nowadays people are always updated and alert with new gadget or any latest technology. For instance, now have many device in market such as laptop that student really need to do their task or any assignment, printer to print all the notes, smartphone also are needed to search any information without limitation and also knowns as personal assistant. Since the gadget
is one of the main constituents of computer security. Public cryptography is the art of protecting information by transforming it (encrypting it) into an unreadable format, called cipher text. Only those who possess a secret key can decrypt the message into plain text. This paper reviews five commonly used asymmetric key cryptography algorithms namely RSA, Diffie–Hellman, El Gamal, DSA and ECC and present their comparative study. 1. Introduction Today security is the challenging aspect in internet

efforts are need to be spended. So security is a topic of concern. Ethical hacking is nothing but testing your computer and networks. It is necessary to test for security vulnerabilities before it is being exploited by a bad guys or hacker. There is a silent war on the internet between bad guy and a bad guy. Good guys are the ones who are trying hard to secure the information and the bad guys are ones who are trying to get prohibited access to these information. As security is a never ending process, there
