Joe Green, a system administrator for a large corporation, is installing a new software package on Chuck Dennis’ personal computer. The company has not authorized Joe to read the employees’ e-mail, Web logs, or personal files. However, in the course of installing the software, he accidentally comes across directories containing files with suspicious-looking names. He opens a few files and discovers they contain child pornography. Joe believes possessing such images is unethical for their profession. What should he do? Acme Corporation licenses a sophisticated software package to many private and government agencies. Kyla is one of Acme's employees who works in the support organization. She mostly provides phone support but also teaches an on-site class from time to time. In fact, she created many of the instructional materials used in these classes. One day Kyla gets a call from Maria, who works for a government agency that uses Acme's software package. Maria offers to pay Kyla Php…
Charlie was just getting ready to head home when the phone rang. Caller ID showed it was Peter. “Hi, Peter,” he said into the receiver. “Want me to start the file cracker on your spreadsheet?” “No, thanks,” Peter answered, taking the joke well. “I remembered my passphrase. But I want to get your advice on what we need to do to make the use of encryption more effective and to get it properly licensed for the whole company. I see the value in using it for certain kinds of information, but I’m worried about forgetting a passphrase again or even worse, that someone else forgets a passphrase or leaves the company. How would we get their filesback?” “We need to use a feature called key recovery, which is usually part of PKI software,” said Charlie. “Actually, if we invest in PKI software, we could solve that problem as well as several others.” “OK,” said Peter. “Can you see me tomorrow at 10 o’clock to talk about this PKI solution and how we can make better use of encryption?” (Case Study…
Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Discuss a cryptography attack scenario. Choose an attack and explain how it works. Be sure to choose one that hasn’t been mentioned by another classmate. What countermeasures would you apply? How do the countermeasures you would use compare to those your classmates recommended for the attacks they chose? What do those similarities or differences tell you about fighting these types of attacks?
There are very few federal laws specifically for hacking, though most states have their own laws. The first law for hacking, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFFA) was passed in 1986 and is still the backbone of the hacking legislature. Currently, it is at issue in the United States Supreme Court; there is talk that the law is overly broad (one interpretation proclaims a federal crime for sharing passwords - for instance, Netflix).

Kardo keeps on sending private messages to Alyana and asking her to go out with him to the point that it is already becoming creepy. Alyana already blocked Kardo but he keeps on sending messages to Alyana. Did Kardo committed a cyber crime? * 1E No Kardo committed a copyright right infringement act therefore it should be punish Yes Kardo committed a computer crime because he is sending private messages to an individual that is no longer interested in him this is what we call fraud and punishable under R.A 10175 No Kardo did not committed any crime that is punishable under R.A 10175 or the cyber crime law of the Philippines Yes Kardo committed a crime moreso this is what we call cyber stalking to the point that he is being creepy that is punishable by at least 6 months in prison under R.A 10175
Most software, including operating systems, is not error free when it is first released. Some programs, in fact, contain thousands of problems, called bugs. Software companies regularly release fixes (called patches) to correct known issues with released software. Many hackers and other criminals target these bugs with computer viruses or other attacks, frequently on the day a new vulnerability is announced—called a zero-day attack. Obviously, the acts by these criminals are not ethical, but what responsibility does a software company have to consumers if they are put at risk due to the company’s carelessness or rush to market? What responsibility do consumers have to make sure they keep their computers patched against new vulnerabilities?
On November 24, 2014, employees of Sony Pictures Entertainment booted up their computers to find an image of a skull along with a message from a group calling itself theGuardians of Peace. The message read: “We’ve already warned you and this is just the beginning. We’ve obtained all your internal data including your secrets and top secrets [which will be released] if you don’t obey us.” As Sony would eventually discover, the hackers had stolen reams of sensitive data, including the Social Security numbers of 47,000 current and former employees, system passwords, salary lists, contracts, and even copies of some Sony employees’ passports. The hackers accessed hundreds of Outlook mailboxes as well as Sony IT audit documents. They also stole media files and placed pirated copies of five of Sony’s movies on illegal file-sharing servers. Sony was forced to completely shut down its information systems in an attempt to stem the data breach. Ultimately, Sony would determine that the damage done…
Kim is working on a project on the health of young mothers among poor people. Since she had little time, she only collected data from the experts who work with these women. Just before the deadline, Kim found that all her project files were locked and wouldn’t open without an access key. She then received an email from her friend Tom that told her to transfer 500 dollars unless she wanted all the project files deleted forever. She immediately called Tom and was baffled to know that all passwords and data saved inside Tom’s laptop were somehow leaked and he could not access any of his accounts. Apparently both Kim and Tom downloaded some files from a third party website and faced these problems afterwards. Sadly, Kim had to pay 500 dollars to retrieve her project and Tom had to reset his entire laptop and delete all his digital information to get rid of the malware. a. Compare and contrast among the Observation method and the method used by Kim for information collection. b. What made…
A student found a loophole in the university computer’s security system that allowed him access to other students’ records. He told the system administrator about the loophole, but continued to access others’ records until the problem was corrected two weeks later.
Review each scenario carefully and respond to each question as either (very ethical, ethical, neither ethical nor unethical, unethical, very unethical) and justify your choice. 3. A student found a loophole in the university computer’s security system that allowed him access to other students’ records. He told the system administrator about the loophole, but continued to access others’ records until the problem was corrected two weeks later. a.The student’s action in continuing to access others’ records for two weeks was:
When operating systems and most other types of software are first released, they are not completely bug-free.There are applications available that contain tens of thousands of bugs.Known flaws in published software are routinely addressed by software companies through the distribution of patches (also known as patches).Hackers and other criminals frequently launch zero-day attacks the day after a new vulnerability is publicly disclosed. No one can deny that these criminals' actions are unethical, but what duty does a software company have if their negligence or haste to market causes harm to customers? What are computer users' responsibilities in terms of staying up to date on security patches?
