Field Report Investigators must ensure the integrity of all evidence collected, analyzed, processed and presented to a courtroom and jury. The reason that this is important is because the improper collection and analysis of evidence can lead to compromised data and potential damage to a prosecution. The seizure and analysis of digital evidence can be particularly challenging but is just as critical to a case as physical evidence. There are specific procedures that must be met to ensure the successful

Assuming feedback to the adversary flagging an error as each incorrect character is entered, what is the expected time to discover the correct password? 3.5 A phonetic password generator picks two segments randomly for each six-letter password. The form of each segment is CVC (consonant, vowel, consonant), where V = 6 a, e, i, o, u 7 and C = V - . a. What is the total password population? b. What is the probability of an adversary guessing a password correctly?
Passwords This lab was to discuss the vulnerability of weak passwords. We were thought how to crack our own passwords using a method called “john the ripper”. We also found out how secure various passwords and how long it would take for a desktop Pc to crack these passwords. We looked up various methods and applications to crack passwords. Report Part One: Explain & Preventions Dictionary Attack = A technique used to try and find the user’s password by trying hundreds of different possibilities
methods used today to break into a system are network spoofing, password cracking and taking advantage of any security weaknesses or vulnerability in the system. There ultimate goal is often achieved through denial of service attack. Password cracking is a sneaky method used by hackers to gain unauthorized access to system through someone’s account. According to www.msdn.microsoft.com network systems are at high risk when the password selected is weak; they are easy to guess by hackers such as date
MN502 NETWORK SECURITY (lab 1) 1. What are the different types of password attacks? Types of password attacks: Brute force attack: It is an attack, the attacker continuously trying too many passwords hoping that it was correct. Dictionary attack: It is an attack, the attacker cracking the password by millions of words in a dictionary Social engineering: It is a type of attack for gathering information using social network. Guessing: It is an attack by our best friends, …… and these attacks on
which someone can do so. One way is to not disclose personal information to anyone. Also, people should “destroy any documents such as mail which may contain personal information which a thief can use” (Dean et al., 2014). Creating difficult passwords that only the user can remember will prevent identity theft. Moreover, companies need to make sure their technology is secure, as they hold personal information of their
INTRODUCTION This topic is about password reuse and password sharing whereby password reuse is a practice that might be dangerous to any organisation’s security if exercised continuously by employees. This is a process of using the same password for a long time after it was reset or expired. And password sharing can be the process of employees giving each other’s password to use if for example one employee is not at work he or she can ask the other one to give his or her password so that one can perform

Most people think that hacking a password you need to be computer savvy. This is not the case, those people are crackers. They use custom code or programs to break the passwords. The best way is to use social engineering, I will explain later in the paper why. Before I go any further into this paper, that this information
space. One oof those is commercial on-line services. These large computer systems can host thousands of users simultaneously. When a computer user purchases an account from the company they recieve a screen name and a password. The user then can use his or her screen name and password to log on and use the system. Most of the online systems have chat rooms where users can chat in real time with one another. some users even think of on-line services as a community. The second catagory involves Bulletin

Currently, employees wishing to access company related information are required to access approximately eight different websites and maintain records for different user names and passwords for each site. This paper will outline the design specifics that will be necessary for full integration and user functionality of the new web-based portal. One of the initial design considerations when looking at this project was the overall network

It also stated that the user will be required to choose a username and password so access control was mandatory. Confidentiality Confidentiality is essential to the online magazine because the same amount of consideration given towards the magazine must be given to the customer.

for implementing SAML protocol is imperative. In addition, with the proliferation of SaaS (Software as a Service), and other web based applications, identity management has become challenging for various enterprises. Handling so many usernames and passwords for your intranet, cloud, webmail, HR system, and other resources is nothing but bothersome especially when your workforce is huge. This is where SAML is desperately needed. Many hosted services providers support SAML for authentication including
building campus. All five buildings, inside and outside will be tested. The perimeter of the campus will also be tested to make sure that no internet service is outside the campus. In order to complete the audit a list of all users, databases, and passwords will be needed. Access to the grounds to observe who has access to what will also be crucial. Going in and out of buildings into rooms will help identify which rooms have computers and who has access to them. Access to servers and the central
In this paper, I will discuss various methods that those who want this access use and ways they can be prevented. Many people feel that because they use passwords their files are secure and can’t be hacked. They unknowingly leave their networks open to attack without protection thinking everything is fine. Hackers can easily get into password protected files once they have access to a computer system. One way to prevent this is to use a firewall. A firewall prevents unauthorized users from gaining

Introduction The seminar was on a very interesting evaluation done on the strength of password meters. Almost all of us are exposed to password-strength meters in our everyday life. The general representation of password meter is a colored bar which when seen as a short red bar indicates a weak password and a long green bar indicates a strong password. The real purpose of a password meter is to show the path for better security to its users. However the strengths and weaknesses of these widely deployed
