Malicious insiders are posturing exceptional security difficulties to organizations because of their insight, abilities, and authorized access to data frameworks. The scopes of potential digital evidence supports have grown exponentially, be it hard drives in personal computers and laptops or solid state memories in mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, even while idleness times linger behind. This paper discusses four best sources of data that forensics experts hunger to get their…
Information Security in Game Development As can be seen by tuning into any modern news media outlet, information security is an international concern. Unfortunately, one area that is often left out of the security conversation is the video game industry. The general consumer base rarely hears about security standards when it comes to game development, and it is hit or miss from one game to the next as to whether there is security in place to protect the machine and network it is being played on.…
The Hutu had treated the Tutsi as if they were animals or vermin. The Tutsi race were depicted as “animals,” “haughty,” and a superiority complex. Also, the Hutus claimed them to not be Rwandans, but Ugandans who favored “ethnic perfection”. Many everyday and common sentences and phrases had been used to refer to the extermination of the Tutsi race. They had to say these things in code so that what they had said did not show any “red flags” to those who were witnessing what had been…

What can we do to avoid falling into a survival based lifestyle? A person’s response to a disaster depends on the severity of that disaster. It is shocking to think that such an event that happened in Alas, Babylon was…
1) What is the difference between a virus and other types of malicious code? A virus is a particular type of malicious program designed to duplicate itself and spread from system to system. Normally, viruses attach themselves to files that can be shared enabling the malicious code to access to new computers. Viruses that are more complex may take over your email client, mailing copies of themselves to the contacts for a faster, more effective transmission (Fritsch et al, 2015). Numerous…
Many years ago, much of society may have envisioned a future with flying cars and robots that shared the Earth with humans. While this has yet to occur, technology is leaps and bounds beyond what it was imagined to be at this point. With technological advancement comes a necessity to secure it; and for some, exploit it. Zero day exploits employed for economic or military advantage; cyber crime, cyber terrorism and threats to SCADA systems; meta-data collected and used by the private sector and…
