So many things are happening in the world today to where people don’t even know what’s going on. Isis is one of the many dangerous terrorists in the world today. Terrorists today does not care who they hurt as long as people gets hurt. All these bombings that's taking place today needs to come to a stop real fast. Innocent lives are being taking by stupid people. Today I’m going to write about how technology makes it very easy for terrorists to bomb many different places. The five main points…

was not just a clock maker or a farmer he also helped in the world of communication by creating his own set of codes used to encrypt messages. This invention was called the “wheel cypher” and it was a was to encrypt messages long before electronic encryption. Jefferson created the Wheel Cypher while serving as George Washington’s Secretary of State. All of Jefferson’s inventions were linked to making life easy for the average citizen and government official. 6 Thomas Jefferson Jefferson is not…

Do Americans Really Have True Privacy "History has shown us that sacrificing our right to privacy can have dire consequences -- we still live in a world where all people are not treated equally. Too many people do not feel free to practice their religion or express their opinion, or love who they choose," (Peterson) In the fourth amendment it states that the American people have the right to privacy. This is not well enforced and this right is often overlooked. Even on the internet the privacy…

Sony Picture Entertainment was hacked by a group that calls themselves the Guardians of Peace. At the beginning of the case, no clear evidence about who were the attackers and what their motives are, but after digging deeper in the case and collecting pieces of evidence, someone can say for sure that these hackers are working for the North Korean government. The attackers “GOP” focused on stealing information and implanting malware to use them as a threat and revenge for SPE for producing a…

Since the dawn of sending and receiving messages, people have had a need for keeping the information they send out to remain private and out of the hands of others. This need for security is the reason the field of cryptography was developed, from its early stages of moving letters around in words to the present use of computer programming to keep certain data safe. Cryptography is the reason we can securely use many day to day applications, but with all these developments come issues of…

Some important data breach notification information: “Breach of the security of the system" means the unauthorized access and acquisition of unencrypted and unredacted computerized data that compromises the security or confidentiality of personal information maintained by an individual or entity as part of a database of personal information regarding multiple individuals and that causes, or the individual or entity reasonably believes has caused, or will cause, identity theft or other fraud to…

aspect of information sharing. With the advancement of the digital age, personal information vulnerabilities have increased. With that in mind we should have the knowledge to ensure our safety in the internet through protective measures such as encryption, authentication, and data masking, etc. I. How the internet changed privacy. A. How the end of privacy started. The beginning of data gathering and the advantages and disadvantages of it. B. Technology runs our generation, what comes next…

(Internet Key Exchange) to establish a secure connection (Security Associations); second, the packet will be encrypted by symmetric key encryption algorithms. IPSec has two implementation modes: AH (Authentication Header) and ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload), AH packet is used to confirm the integrity and non-repudiation, ESP packet is used for authentication and encryption. (Cisco Systems 2012…

in an all-encompassing hands-on system is considered as futile by some with real-world experience in the business. Another likely possibility is to guard transferred messages (i.e., communications) by means of cryptography. A definite manner of encryption (the activity of converting data or information into code) is the one-time pad, which is endurable when properly used. A Secure Design feature means that the software has been constructed from scratch to quality to be protected. In this case,…

C. Common Causes of Data Breach The four common causes of data breaches includes the absence of policy, unencrypted dives, lack of security defenses and insider negligence [22]. Insider negligence of private information is one of the top reasons for a data breach. This includes an employee accident that leads to a data breach, and the use of a third-party that is negligent. For example, in 2009 an unencrypted laptop was stolen from the car of an Oregon Health & Science University employee which…
