the Internet has grown however, causing capitalists and governments to enter the picture, the old rules are changing fast. E-commerce firms employ the latest technologies to track minute details on customer behavior. The FBI's Carnivore email-tracking system is being increasingly used to infringe on the privacy of netizens. Corporations now monitor their employees' web and email usage. In addition to these privacy infringements, Internet users are also having their use censored, as governments,
already there? And more importantly, do we care? Have we been on the “slippery slope” so long that we have lost track of where we are headed and what we are leaving behind? One of the most troubling technologies being developed are highly precise tracking devices which can be used to detect the whereabouts of humans anywhere on earth. We are all familiar with the “teathers” that our probationers wear around their ankles. They are “free” to move around and live a relatively normal life since they can
change of the retail industry from brick and mortar stores to Internet purchases Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. has been able to stay attractive to the buying public.

budget, and satisfying the user’s needs. Data Mining is a process which analyses data from a 360 degree perspective and then summarize it into most useful information. Data Mining Techniques can be applied to solve software engineering defects and bugs. Software development team tries to enhance software quality and efficiency by minimizing the defect ratio to the least possible extent. Software life cycle is a human activity dependent
Major Computer System Failures Caused by Software Bugs In early 2006 problems in a state's financial monitoring software resulted in incorrect election candidate financial reports being made available to the public. The state's election finance reporting web site was shut down until the software was repaired. Trading on a major Asian stock exchange was brought to a halt in November of 2005, reportedly due to an error in a system software upgrade. The problem was rectified and trading resumed
BoundsChecker Introduction: BoundsChecker is a utility for checking applications for bugs like memory overwrites, reading not initialized memory, use of dangling pointers and much more.It is a memory checking and API call validation tool used for C++ software development with Microsoft Visual C++. BoundsChecker is an indispensable tool for Windows programming. It finds errors very efficiently (including tons in Microsoft's code!!). Its main focus is on finding memory leaks. Creation and Version History:
computer users in today’s market. It has become a game of survival of the fittest in protection of your security. The only true way to defend yourself is knowledge.

internal regulatory system for the FBI to control the use of carnivore it looks as though anyone anywhere can be tapped. Carnivore also has other problems too. According to cnn.com; "Specific technical concerns noted by the scientists include a lack of analysis between the Carnivore code and its host environment and operating system, inadequate discussion of the remote access provided by the use of the "PC Anywhere" program, and no evidence of a systematic search for bugs or serious errors.
real world organizations. It also deals with system engineering in order to enforce security policies in an organization. In the modern world, the systems cut across various areas of human efforts, therefore the security engineers need not consider the substantial and logical properties of the organization. They have to concentrate on the attacks or the threats on the people of the organization utilizing the social engineering attacks. These secured systems have to defend with force, fraud and trick
access to the MIT AI Lab by the lab’s director Marvin Minsky. In the 1970’s a trend started with phone hacking. Phreaks exploit phone systems to make free long distance calls. One famous phreak is John Draper, also known as “Captain Crunch”, made long distance calls for free by blowing a certain tone in a telephone. This tone opened a line on the phone system and he was able to make long distance calls for free. Two names that everyone is familiar with are Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak; these
Global Positioning System Global Positioning System (GPS) technology has been on the market for a number of years now. Originally developed by the military for logistical tracking and navigation, it has seen a number of applications for personal and commercial uses in recent years, with more coming down the development pipeline. GPS uses a constellation of low earth orbit satellites to determine the exact longitude, latitude and altitude of the user or vehicle with the tracking monitor. This location
more and more dependent on technology. Ever since technology began heavily integrating itself into society, many major uses have developed, but at a cost that brings on dangerous side effects, both mental and physical, as shown by the potential Y2K bug, that will continue unless active measures are sought out by those so dependent on technology. For quite some time now, technology has been entering the lives of nearly everyone, and, in return, people have embraced it. By now it doesn't matter where
These attacks and threats are built off of the vulnerabilities the previous section and help to determine which security controls would be most valuable against future attacks. Healthcare Vulnerabilities can and will be used by attackers if activity tracking devices, insulin pumps, pacemakers, and other medical devices if they are not corrected by manufacturers. Attacks on healthcare IoT devices exposes the user to theft of their PHI and may potentially put the user’s life at risk. Given the device vulnerabilities
The “Love Bug” Virus The virus dubbed the “love bug” started to rapidly spread throughout the world on May 4, 2000. According to David Ruppe (May 5,2000) in an article on the ABCNEWS.com website, The virus came in the form of “ILOVEYOU” in the subject line, which seemed harmless and greets people in a friendly way. They have no idea that they are in for a big surprise as they opened their email. The message inside reads: “kindly check the attached LOVELETTER coming from me” (Ruppe, May 5,2000)
is an important one to address. Once software is created there are usually changes or bugs that are found causes there to be a need for maintenance. It is important to have a process in place that helps to define how these items are handled and the path they take to completion. Using different tools to log these changes, requests, or bugs will is important to keep things organized and allows for proper tracking of these items. As part of Software maintenance there is another aspect called change
