Most cyber criminals or hackers feel a little more secure when they can hide behind a network; the perception of low risk and very high financial reward prompts many cyber criminals to engage in malware, phishing,…

focused almost solely on my computer science passion to the detriment of other subjects.

Naively, I plotted ideas to become the "next big thing". Needless-to-say my report cards showed one cannot be a genius without studying. Despite having built an elaborate online network of acquaintances and…

who debuted in August 2016 after claiming to have breached the spy tools of the Equation Group, an elite NSA-linked operation.

phase, I would first gather as much information as possible from the I.T. professionals responsible for maintaining the network. I would also assess the networks firewall, all devices that the network is comprised of and inquire of any network failure that may have occurred recently. I would also enter the registry and identify all removable devices that were added to the network and look if they were any that were enabled during or before the time the malware, indications begin appearing.…

sometimes happens so fast and its hard for the human eye to keep up with calls. They have to go under the booth and watch it over and over before coming to to an exact decision on what has happened.

sentient A.I. (artificial intelligence) is inevitable. As of 2016, the top computer scientists of the world agree that we are with fifty years of attaining A.I. capable of superseding humans in most types of analytical and creative thought. Furthermore, the nations of the world at the forefront of technological innovation are only a decade or so away from having deployable, fully autonomous robotic soldiers and aircraft. The computer is without question, the most important and life altering…
