...P a g e |1 BackTrack 5 guide 4: How to perform stealth actions Karthik R, Contributor You can read the original story here, on SearchSecurity.in. In previous installments of this BackTrack 5 how to tutorial, we have discussed information gathering and vulnerability assessment of the target system; explored network assessment, scanning and gaining access into the target; and, delved into privilege escalation tools. In this installment of the tutorial on BackTrack 5, how to perform stealth actions will be discussed. Why stealth? The objective of penetration testing is to replicate the actions of a malicious attacker. No attacker desires discovery of surreptitious entry into the network, and hence employs stealth techniques to remain unnoticed. The penetration tester needs to adopt the same stealth methods, in order to honestly assess the target network. http://searchsecurity.techtarget.in/tip/BackTrack-5-guide-4-How-to-perform-stealth-actions P a g e |2 Figure 1.

...Business Communication – Review of the Module on Interpersonal Communication Ans 1. The different dynamics of interpersonal relationship that is recorded in the story are * Listening for the cues and clues – The non-verbal communication that is going on when Karthik and Priya were interacting with each other. * To be solution-centred – The purpose of the exercise was to understand the other person and to suggest improvements. But Karthik was uninterested in the process and did not want to change himself. * Giving accurate summaries – Understanding the person before judging them. Kartik had already type-casted Priya and formed his judgements about her. He was not willing to understand her better even when he had the chance. * Cross-gender conversation – Kartik was not comfortable in conversing with Priya as he was not very open, and had drawn boundaries around him so he did not deal very well with the whole process and that was a barrier in their communication. Cues that Karthik gave during his interaction between him and Priyadarshini * He sensed her perfume which made him look at Priya. * He observed that she was beautiful and the clothes that she was wearing were modern. * He was irritated with Priya not being interested in the conversation as she was busy with her phone all the time. * He was only asking questions because they were asked to do the exercise but was not really interested in it. * He was surprised with her answers as they...

...In the article “Why “Fair Value” Is The Rule”, the author Karthik Ramanna, has many valid points as to why fair value should be used in the accounting system. She states that fair value takes over for the old, worn out system of keeping books at historical value. She talks about how using fair value makes account more reliable. Also, it was believed fair value accounting was part of the reason the stock market crashed in 1929. Another point that Karthik had was why people actually support fair value. Fair value replaced the old, worn out system of keep books at historical value. With historical value, you never really need to record anything if the price becomes cheaper. It is a way for your assets to look larger than they actually are. If you record an item at fair value, you are normally reducing that value, so you are also reducing your assets. Sometimes you must actually increase the value because you paid less for the item than it is now worth. Fair value also helps with an insurance policy. If you have something that is stolen, and you do not get a settlement from your insurance company, you record the loss at the adjusted fair value. Fair value is a more reliable form of accounting, at least according to some people. It is believed that if someone is using the real cost on the books, it’ll mean that they are more accurately reporting what they have. Others believe that historic costing is more reliable because you are accurately showing what the product WAS worth. I...

...located in the My Marketing Engineering directory (usually located in My Documents): Can the Bunny Hop Data (Positioning).xls “We fought off Time Warner and held on to the bunny. Now we are saying that it’s too childish! Remember, it is mostly children who consume Nutrine confectionery, not teenagers, not adults. And children love the bunny! My son still remembers the advertisement we ran in the 1980s in Chandamama, with bunnies holding Nutrine SuperStar Toffees. The bunny is our identity. We cannot change what we are!” —Ganapathy (VP-Operations). “But things change. Even customers do. The question is, can the bunny hop into new confectionary categories? Will customers accept the bunny in the mints and gum categories?” —Karthik (VP-Marketing). Introduction Nutrine was developed as the umbrella brand (sometimes called the “parent” or “family” brand) for all confectionery products produced by the Nutrine Confectionery Company (NCC). All the products it launched initially carried only the name Nutrine on their wrappers. To attract its target group of children between the ages of 6 and 13 years, Nutrine used a bunny brand character; this bunny quickly became part of...

Karthik Balaji Class- IX- B Roll No- 11 School- St. John’s Public School Make in India * M. Karthik Balaji I t has very nearly been 66 years since we, as one nation, took the reins of our destiny in our own hands. And while that still places us as a relatively young democracy (the US, for example, signed the declaration of independence in 1776), the fact that the first generation born after that fateful midnight has now started retiring is a noteworthy milestone. As a people who use the same word for tomorrow as for yesterday, keeping track of the passage of time and the changes it brings along is not something we are very adept at. The vastness and the diversity of this nation make this task no easier. With a colourful and noisy population, India is perhaps the perfect example of what anthropologist Edward Hall described as a “high-context” society. Such societies are marked by an environment of familiarity and universally-shared polite fiction, where a lot goes unsaid, or is said in just a few words. As a result, much is left to be implicitly understood from context. This inevitably makes the modern historian’s job even tougher, especially given the vagueness and the flowery sense of political correctness of any recorded letter or conveyed opinion. The welcome emphasis in our foreign investment policy on...

...Demystifying the American Graduate Admissions Process Karthik Raghunathan Graduate Class of 2010 Stanford Computer Science kr@cs.stanford.edu Abstract This paper attempts to discuss at length the various factors (along with their respective weightage) that the admissions committee at a top graduate school in the US takes into account while reviewing a Master of Science (MS) application. Disclaimer This paper is a mixture of facts, inferences and extrapolations, based on my personal experience as an admissions committee member at Stanford. All views expressed here are solely mine and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of Stanford University. 1. Introduction In this paper, I outline the various parameters involved in the complex decision making process of a Masters admissions committee in a top graduate school in the US. To clarify this further, (i) This report is mainly targeted at MS applicants, but a lot of it can be extended to PhD applications as well. In most cases, the requirements for a PhD admit will just be a stricter version of those mentioned here. (ii) I do not have a specific list of universities in mind when I say "a top graduate school". Stanford, MIT, UC Berkeley and CMU are certainly up there, but I am not particularly referring to any specific list of graduate school rankings. In a more general sense, I am talking about schools where the default attitude of the admissions committee is "rejected, unless strongly proved otherwise" rather...

...Ethics – can we merge AICPA and IFAC ethics standards? AC504 March 10, 2013 INTRODUCTION There are many challenges and obstacles facing the accounting profession with the convergence towards a globally accepted accounting reporting structure and a global ethics structure. Today’s economy is becoming globally smaller and more importantly the economy from all fronts is becoming more co-dependent on one another from a domestic and international perspective regarding finance, raw materials, IT, and labor talent. Some of the challenges facing the accounting profession as move towards a global standard is how do we ensure the information are reliable? Many companies in various parts of the world have different reasons/motives for how financial information is compiled and distributed due to things such as government or other political/social reasons and influences. Another large issue facing accountants would be what is acceptable in Country A may be unacceptable from an ethical standpoint to Country B. An example of this, IGAAP is less stringent than U.S. GAAP regarding certain disclosures, therefore, how will the information be disclosed in order for investors and creditors to make informed decisions. From an ethical standpoint will companies chose to use IGAAP because it is less stringent and the disclosure will be less disclosed than it is today. Finally the idea of enforceability, in certain countries, will the Commission actually have authority to hold...

...The creative process has four stages, which are searching for challenges, expressing the particular problem or issue, investigating it, and producing a range of ideas. When one is searching for challenges one would explore, discover, and understand. We might believe that something is done a certain way because of common or past practices and overlook challenging the norm. So, we try to use our imagination by using techniques dealing with collaboration and eliminating options with creativity. The second stage deals with expressing the particular problem or issue is a stumbling block. Having insight about a problem allows ones vision and gaps that need to be fixed or corrected. Stage three is investigating the problem or issue deals with reviewing past experiences, observe the issue, and research. The last stage deals with producing ideas allow them to be manifested by evaluating to see whether the new process is better than the old. The personal challenges from the textbook, Ruggiero provided six specific techniques: 1. Being observant. 2. Look for the imperfections in things. 3. Note you’re own and others' dissatisfactions. 4.
