...it sometime in life likely. To first take the steps of understanding how to prevent hacking, we must familiarize ourselves with some of their tools. DDOS and DOS Attacks Denial of service attacks are a frequent occurrence on the internet. Often referred to as “DOS attacks”. DOS attacks are initiated by hackers sending packets, or bits of data, very repetitively to the victim’s computer until it is unable to communicate any other packets. (PBS, 2001) One such attack was executed against some big United States companies. On February 8th 2000, “MafiaBoy” or Michael Calce attacked sites such as Yahoo!, CNN, eBay, and E-Trade, with repeated DOS attacks. Even though he was only able to bring them down momentarily, it is a pretty big accomplishment given their security measures.

...2) Analyze and assess the operations system of Manzana (system for processing insurance requests as depicted in Exhibit 2) by taking the following questions as a lead: a) How do the various jobs (RUN, RERUN, RAIN, RAP) flow through the system? How much time do they take? The figure below shows the flow through the system of the various jobs (RUN, RERUN, RAIN and RAP) taken exhibit 2 into account. The red numbers in the figure show the daily processed requests on average based on the data of 1991 which can be found in exhibit 7. The daily requests that are coming into the system are calculated by adding all various jobs (RUN’s, RERUN’s, RAIN’s and RAP’s) processed in the first 6 months and dividing this outcome by 120 (E.g. 6 months x 4 weeks x 5 days). This means that the teams can process 39 requests on average per day. (350+1798+451+2081)/(6*4*5) = 4680 / 120 = 39 requests per day on average. All further calculations can be found in the table below. |Task |Calculation in # of requests per day |Outcome in # of requests per day | |Calculate generated RERUN |(2081)/(6*4*5) |17.3 | |RUN/RAP/RAIN |(350+1798+451)/(6*4*5) |21.7 | |Total # requests per day |(350+1798+451+2081)/(6*4*5) |39 ...

...this condition is something I can relate to due to my mother, but it happens all over the world. There are many risk factors that make these conditions hard for the risk factors to be controlled. There are ways to change the factors that you can to improve your health and wellness. Strokes aren’t so much as transmitted but they can be passed down through history of the family. Strokes are a very big deal, if you are older you have a very higher risk at having strokes. Strokes are the fifth leading causes of deaths in the United States, mainly due to people not taking care of themselves and their health. Although, strokes are not a communicable disease but can be common if it runs in your family. Strokes are a mental thing and can be caused by a lot of things, a stroke occurs when the blood supply to the brain is blocked or when the vessel is ruptured causing the brain tissue to die. According to (CDC) the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that (“over 800,000 people have a stroke each year, and one American dies from a stroke every 4 minutes on average”). This is unbelievable I couldn’t believe how common strokes were in America. Things can always be changed to better prevent the risks of the conditions. How our body protects us from the disease is interesting though. Our body has so many different ways of fighting back on a lot of different conditions. Eating right and staying healthy is the first step towards preventing strokes, this will keep the body with nutrients...

...M. Ghazanfar Ali, Salman Mohsin, Shahida Department of Computer Sciences National Textile University Faisalabad uzair@ieee.org Privacy Protective, Consent Based Joint Location Tracking System for Smartphone Users Abstract: Ubiquitous availability of GPS receivers and internet in Smartphones has made mobile navigation systems widely used in people’s daily life. Due to the rapid growth of mobile navigation systems, users put forward higher privacy demands on location-based services (LBS). Knowing the whereabouts of family, friends, delivery staff, and team-members is common requirement especially in Metropolitan cities. We have designed and implemented a mutual location tracking system that uses location information while observing privacy concerns. Our system provides opportunity to implement a variety of mutual location tracking scenarios. It enables users to establish proper credentials to share each other’s location with mutual consent. Users are provided with each other current location and previous trajectory on map. This capability can enable many other location based applications. Keywords: Location Based Services, Location Based Collaboration, GPS, and Navigation. 1. Introduction: The system we have developed uses the GPS satellite to track the current location of others (Friends, Relatives etc.) By sending/receiving sms/REST notifications. Current version of the system is available for android Devices. Every person doesn't feel easy in sharing personal...

...Toyota Recall Lawsuit Assignment 1 Week 4 Tina Christensen LEG100 Natalie Stratis-Malak, Esq. Strayer University 29 July 2012 Toyota Recall Lawsuit Toyota Recall Summary of Initiation of Lawsuit For those who are not familiar with the lawsuit against Toyota, it is interesting because it involves what so many believed to be quality product failure. Four people died in California in October of 2009 due to stuck accelerator pedal on their Lexus vehicle which is a Toyota made product. The key to the initiation of this case was that it was a State Trooper and his family that had died as the cause of the acceleration pedal failure. One amazing thing about this fact, is that it took the loss of life of a police officer and his family for the Toyota company to recognize that there was a product failure problem. Although the NHTSA had apparently received many reports of this accelerator pedal problem happening, it is cited by Bearman Law as having been ignored although previously investigated. As the investigation unfolded, many injuries and fatalities were uncovered that were caused by this Toyota malfunction and the public was not notified. The solution was for owners to remove the floor mat and not replace it. (Bearman Law Firm, 2012) I personally was shocked when I read further into this case as I recalled that this happened to my mother a number of times in her Toyota Lexus while on the highway and merging with traffic and the pedal sticking. I thought...

...Terrorism in the United States Terrorism is like a plague. It has haunted the world as well as the United States for years. It is only currently, in light of what has happened to New York and Washington, been threatened by a nation. This newly found hatred for terrorism is not just from a government, it is from the governed as well. It is not as strait forward as one may think. There are many definitions of terrorism. The definition of terrorism depends mostly on the views and occupations of the people who define it. Scholars, politicians and journalists all define terrorism differently. Words and motivations that define terrorism range from violence and force to racism. Although one well known notion that many people are familiar with is, “one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.” The notion, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, over time has become more than a cliché. Senator Henry Jackson commented on this notion at the Jonathan Institute's 1979 conference. The idea that one person's "terrorist" is another's "freedom fighter" cannot be sanctioned. Freedom fighters or revolutionaries don't blow up buses containing non-combatants; terrorist do. . . It is a disgrace that democracies would allow the treasured word "freedom" to be associated with the acts of terrorist. (Netanyahu 18-9) Although there are many definitions of the terrorism, one of the most widely accepted definitions is that of the FBI. The FBI states that terrorism is, “the...

...Avian Influenza, also called bird flu or H5N1 is an infection that naturally occurs among birds. Avian Influenza is carried in wild birds in their intestines but usually do not get sick. On the contrary domesticated birds: turkey, chickens, and ducks pick up the very contagious virus and get very sick. The virus is fatal. Birds that are susceptible to the virus become infected by being in contact with contaminated secretions or excretions. Domesticated birds may become infected with avian influenza virus through direct contact with infected waterfowl or other infected poultry, or through contact with surfaces (such as dirt or cages) or materials (such as water or feed) that have been contaminated with the virus. (CDC) 2010. The spread of avian influenza A viruses from one ill person to another has been reported very rarely, and has been limited, inefficient and not sustained. However, because of the possibility that avian influenza A viruses could change and gain the ability to spread easily between people, monitoring for human infection and person-to-person transmission is extremely important for public health. (CDC) 2010. Avian Influenza Outbreak Outbreaks The most recent reported outbreak was January 2015. The outbreak is still ongoing but has not yet spread to humans. The most recent outbreak in North America with transmission to humans was in Canada in 2004. Health Canada reported two cases of laboratory-confirmed influenza A (H7): one in a person involved...

Whether the health authorities in Brazil and also the leadership at the WHO have taken too long to urge to the current purpose may be a subject of discussion among the international health community. The Brazilian government says its response once it had been 1st alerted by the doctors regarding the weird symptoms they were seeing was driven by the proof. “It was too early," told Claudio Maierovitch, director of the health ministry's Dept of malady investigation. "There were such a lot of different infectious prospects and Zika had ne'er been seen during this half of a sphere." And the person told that once Zika was known, the authorities’ response was supported information of the malady. Previous outbreaks of Zika, an epidemic 1st known in 1947 in Republic of Uganda, had occurred in little and scattered rural populations in Africa and Southeast Asia and also the symptoms were relatively kind.

"But as early as we tend to saw that there was association with abnormality, we tend to reacted in respond time." ...
