CS2301 df5 Questions: Using Figure 17.5 from the textbook explain why we have a “big mess” of our free space memory allocation Answer: Below figure show one example of putting the memory. Quoted: ARPACI-DUSSEAU. R., ARPACI-DUSSEAU, A. (2012, ch17-8) In above example, assume total size is 4096, header eat 16k, each chunk total eat 108k (100 + 4 k header + 4 k chunk). In theory (assume perfect allocation), no waste space resulted. Then total 37 chunk block (108k) can be fitted. However, the…

learning ethical hacking. I would benefit from being able to understand how malware works, but also how to patch a system to prevent any security exploits. The applied mathematics background is useful for having a more in-depth comprehension of how cryptography works and statistics which is advantageous…

Blown to Bits – 15 points each No, it shouldn’t be illegal to encrypt data. It should be legal because the Government shouldn’t have an automatic right to read anyone’s private messages/information at any time. One pro of end-to-end encryption is that data is secured when it travels from a source to its destination. It also offers high flexibility for user in selecting a data to encrypt. Another pro is that we can easily integrate with the existing solution. We can just add an…

The protection of the information is considered a big challenge for all the systems, which manage fragile information of their clients. As a result, the systems should provide security that permits people to trust in their companies and services. Nowadays, the technological environment offers many algorithms and methods that permit to keep the information safe. One of the recent innovation is watermarking. Watermarking is a security method that help people to keep the information protected…

repository or central database and trusted third party Central authority(CA) are used to revoke, issue and store the keys. There is always a risk that these centralized infrastructure can be violated. Hence, Blochcain can be use to to reduce the risks of storing PKI on centralized infrastructure. Here the Data(Keys) will be distributed across the blochchain network[3] In the 2nd section we will go through the introduction of blockchain, In the 3rd Section, we will see how blockchain protects…

Chapter 1 what is Blockchain? Basically, Blockchain is a system created essentially for the running of cryptocurrencies. Wikipedia defines a cryptocurrency as a digital asset that works as a medium of exchange and uses cryptography to secure all transactions and to control the creation of additional units of the currency. An example of such cryptocurrencies is the bitcoin. In this article, we will understand the following: • Basic meaning of blockchain • What it comprises of • How it…

1.1.1 Types of Sensor Networks Terrestrial WSNs: - In Terrestrial WSNs, nodes are distributed in a given area either in a pre-planned manner (sensor nodes are placed according to optimal placement, grid placement, 2-d and 3-d placement models) or in an ad hoc manner (sensor nodes are randomly placed in the target area by dropping it from plane). After all battery power is limited and it cannot be reenergized, terrestrial sensor nodes must be provided with a maximum power source such as solar…

A person who can illicitly obtain a private key can impersonate the owner of the private key during public key cryptography actions. Depending on the security roles granted by the authorized use of the private key, a compromised private key can be used to abuse network resources, steal valuable data, and destroy reputations. Cryptographic algorithms can implement encryption…

In this way file is reconstructed back from its shares. The size of each piece is |F| / (n-k), where |F| is size of secret/data, which is smaller than size of each piece produced through algorithm explained in [52]. In this scheme, m-1 shares of file F may provide some information about F. So in this scheme it is advisable to encrypt F before dispersing it and decode it after reconstruction of the encrypted version. One possible attack on the security of the data dispersed among servers would be…

TEST AND SECURITY EVALUATION PLATFORM Background Work: The need for safe and secure identity authentication is increasing day by day as the number of identity theft occurrences is growing. The strongest security is implemented within the hardware itself. There are two key concepts in designing for testability: Controllability and Observability. Controllability refers to the ability to apply test patterns to the inputs of a sub circuit via the primary inputs of the circuit. Observability refers…
