...Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics Foreword by Pro-Vice Chancellor Research The University of Nottingham‟s Code of Research Conduct and Research Ethics provides a comprehensive framework for good research conduct and the governance of all research carried out across the University. The Code underpins the University‟s commitment to maintaining the highest standards of integrity, rigour and excellence in all aspects of our research and for all research to be conducted according to the appropriate ethical, legal and professional frameworks and standards. The Code is a fundamental component of the research environment which is characterised by our culture of research integrity, good research practice, and the development and training of researchers at all stages of their careers. The Code outlines the duty of researchers including their responsibilities towards all participants and subjects of research including humans, animals, the environment and cultural materials, and it provides a basis for the transparent and appropriate communication and dissemination of research findings. The University welcomes the national framework for good research conduct and governance published as the Concordat to Support Research Integrity and endorses the Concordat as a recipient of public funding for research. This Code has been reviewed to be consistent with the commitments and aims of the Concordat and is the basis for applying...

Eligible assets. - 3. Eligibility requirements and determination of the relevant income: the nexus approach. - 3.1 Nexus approach and trademarks: what went wrong? - 3.2 Looking at the issue from a comparative perspective - 4. - Conclusions. 1. The 2015 Italian Stability Law, Article 1, subsections from 37 to 45, introduces an optional taxation regime for income produced by intangible assets, known as ‘Patent Box’. The regime has been subsequently modified by Article 5 of the Law Decree n. 3 of 24 January 2015. The regime allows taxpayers to exclude from their tax base a percentage of the income derived from certain intangible assets. According to the Stability Law, individual and collective entrepreneurs as well may choose to benefit from this regime, including foreign entrepreneurs having a permanent establishment in Italy and being resident in a state that has both a double tax agreement with Italy and undertakes an effective exchange of information. The election of the regime cannot be revoked and lasts for five fiscal years. The income that benefits from the exemption may originate from: 1) direct use of the intangible assets by the taxpayer; 2) allowance of use of the intangible assets given by the taxpayer to third parties; 3) transfer of ownership of the relevant assets...

...the application code for how the database is called, it may be able to retrieve information about the database (name, attributes, IP address, etc.) and or access the Web Server and attempt a DoS attack. If a Web form cannot handle the unexpected data and fails to return the expected outcome. You have uncovered a vulnerability in this form; penetration testing in this area help IT security identify the vulnerabilities a Web Application may have. 2. What is a cross-site scripting attack? The goal of an XSS attack is see if the Web Application allows the attacker to have administrative read/write access to the functionality of the Web Application. This attack is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found inweb applications that enables attacks to inject client-side script into web pages viewed and accessed by other users. 3. What is a reflective cross-site scripting attack? If the attacker can type a script in a text field and the script alters or creates a pop-up display, the attacker can use these windows to navigate users off the Web Application pages and to constructed pages with malicious code. They can also spoof the pages with the intent to steal credentials from users accessing the pages. This attack is a security vulnerability, which the web application dynamically generates a response using non-sanitized data from client scripts, like Java scripts or VB script, in the data sent to the server and will send back a page with the script. 4.

POPHL, however, is limited to inspection and survey when it comes to intellectual property rights. “Ironic… At present, we do not have enforcement powers… we still need the enforcement agencies to file the case,” Gepty said. This is why IPOPHL is pushing for the passage of Senate Bill 301 or the Copyright Bill, which empowers IPOPHL to inspect and survey private companies and government agencies on IP Code compliance. For now, IPOPHL can inspect or survey companies only if they consent to be placed under such procedure. This is to encourage users to buy only legal copies of the software they need, he added. 2.

Microsoft Internet Explorer Same ID Property Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2012-1875) 3. Microsoft XML Core Services Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2012-1889) 4. Adobe Flash Player Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2012-1535) The attackers gained access to the source code or reserve-engineered to those complied applications. Then use them to hit the targeted victim. 3. Was the attack on Confidentiality, Integrity, and/or Availability? Please provide an explanation for your response. I believe that this attack on confidentiality because the hackers had stolen intellectual property and sought access to the Gmail accounts of human rights activists and this leads to disclosure of data to non-authorized users so it violates the confidentiality 4. What was the attacker's profile based on the definitions provided on the Week 2 lecture material?

To get a more clear understanding of the positives and negatives of the internet, we must first understood how we communicate through it, and its major building blocks and functions. Once we have reached a proper understanding on those basics, we can expand into the vulnerabilities of software application, giving us a real insight and understanding into how criminals can conduct their illegal activities.
