...between public-key encryption and private-key encryption. List advantages and disadvantages of each encryption method. Explain which method you would use for e-mail sent from a field sales office to corporate headquarters. Assume that the e-mail regularly includes highly confidential information about upcoming sales opportunities. Answer: Responses will vary but should mention that public-key encryption, encodes messages by using two mathematically related numeric keys. Private-key encryption, encodes a message with one of several available algorithms that use a single numeric key, such as 456839420783, to encode and decode data. 4. In about 300 words, describe the security threats that a company could face if it implements a wireless network.

...conversation was a chore. Now when you do any of these things, you see such advancements that come from two of the most popular technologies that have come to be. Bluetooth and Infrared, both have been around longer than most of us know. During my research for this paper, I learned that Infrared is where we get our remote controls for TV, for which all 80’s children are grateful, we no longer had to come inside to change the channels for our Moms. I have learned where these technologies came from, what they are used for, the people and companies that buy them, and what we can look forward to in the future. Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows data to be exchanged over short distances using short wavelength radio transmissions. This technology is built into of plethora of products that allows them to exchange information over a wireless connection, or in basic terms, it allows one device to talk to another without wires. Two devices must be paired together in order to share. Several devices can be connected to a single Bluetooth, such as PDAs, mobile phones, laptops, computers, printers, controllers to game consoles and digital cameras. Bluetooth transmits data over radio waves, on frequency of 2.45 gigahertz. Bluetooth uses spread spectrum frequency hopping to keep signals from interfering with one another and this becomes very useful when connecting up to the eight device limit. Infrared is a band of light found on the electromagnetic spectrum. It is...

...CYBER SCAM AND ITS EFFECTS November 27, 2011 SUBMITTED BY: FETALVER, FRANCIS VIOLETA, ROGENE CRIS SUBMITTED TO: MRS. MARY GRACE P. ALFANTA I Introduction Background of the Study Experts and law-enforcement officials who track Internet crime say scams have intensified in the past six months, as fraudsters take advantage of economic confusion and anxiety to target both consumers and businesses. Thieves are sending out phony emails and putting up fake Web sites pretending to be banks, mortgage-service providers or even government agencies like the Federal Bureau of Investigation or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Cell phones and Internet-based phone services have also been used to seek out victims. The object: to drain customer accounts of money or to gain information for identity theft. Most scams are done by e-mail (Spam). They entice users to give them critical information like usernames, passwords, credit card information, or other types of account information. Most of these e-mails can easily be identified as fraudulent, by identifying a couple of general characteristics. If someone pretending to represent a company or organization contact you by e-mail to supply them with usernames, passwords or other critical information by e-mail, then you can be certain it’s fraudulent. Today we have something we call SSL (Secure Socket Layer). E-mail is one of the most un-secure methods to send user information and passwords. Most organizations...

...help from many of my colleagues and friends in the field, I have endeavored to compile a comprehensive blog about starting an InfoSec career. This is a very lengthy blog broken into sections that may help people as parts or as a whole. We want you to succeed in our field. As always, please feel free to ask questions or leave comments / gripes / suggestions. Chapter 1: The Fundamentals Unfortunately, for all the interminable hacking tool tutorials and security guides floating around the internet, many InfoSec job candidates haven’t grasped two fundamental concepts: * To hack something (or defend it from hacking), you must have a solid understanding of how that thing works. And, * InfoSec is not a career that can be put in a box once you go home from work or school. You must be passionate enough about the field to be continually learning and aware of quickly changing current events. If you want a career that you can forget about once you go home at 5:00 PM, InfoSec is probably not the right choice. The really intriguing thing about InfoSec and hacking in general is how they draw heavily from knowledge of all sorts of IT subjects. It’s difficult to understand attacks,...

...INFORMATION SECURITY STRATEGY AND ARCHITECTURE The path for risk management and the security panels consumed by a corporation are offered by information security strategy and architecture, which is very important to any companies and organizations. The security architecture would need to define the way that obligation would be accomplished in the numerous regions of the corporate. Furthermore, the security architecture must report past activities that have affected the company’s information properties. These incidences designate areas that may need larger safekeeping controls. Fresh intimidations may compel differences in the security design and supplementary controls. The safekeeping design must also integrate with the current technology substructure and postulate assistance in inaugurating the appropriate risk controls needed for the corporate to accomplish its business firmly. Its purpose is significant in proposing risk management for the foundation and for organizing the controls that diminish that hazard. A safety package is not an occurrence management guides those particulars what transpires if a security break is noticed. It takes a usual method that labels in what way part of corporation is tangled in the package. A decent safety package delivers the immense copy in what way to retain corporation's facts protected.
