To answer question 1, the malware that I found in this assignment image is the application background processes, namely ‘csrss.exe’. It runs after windows logon process complete and running under user profile. This malware will random the targeted file from the targeted location, C:\Documents and Settings\ , and start process by move targeted file from normal extension to be the extension that end with ‘1’ as show on Figure 1 on appendix A. After that, malware will send targeted file name after rename the extension to gpg2 for encryption. This means that, this malware tries to encrypt user’s information on the system by using ‘gpg2.exe’ application with specific key for encryption. The malware will call ‘gpg2.exe’ by using command line, as …show more content…
First of all, I observed windows processes by using ‘Process Monitor’ application and found the suspect processes that start and stop in the short time period. Thus, the application tools that we need to use in this challenge are ProcessExplorer and ProcessMonitor. The ProcessExploere is using for comparison all of processes in assignment image OS, Windows-XP-Assignment.ova, and normal image OS, Windows-XP.ova. This tools will help us compare the different processes list between two images and lead us to easily isolate suspect processes that running in assignment image as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6. About the ProcessMonitor, I used to observe the behaviours’ of suspect processes such as what they do, which processes they called, and/or what are the parameters they used to participate with other applications, also all of activities that they proceed, show on Figure 7. The difficult part that I found in this stage is how malware specify the targets and key for encryption. In this challenge, the new knowledge that I learnt is the malware do not need to create all code from scratch but they can build from any security application and make worst damage to social. In this case, they use gpg application also known as PGP, that the one of security application using for encrypt and sign data for secure communication and widely use in secure email
Linux is a free open-source software that anybody can use . Most people use computers don't even know that Linux exists. Most people just use whatever is already downloaded onto the computer. Or if they buy computer that has no software on it they would buy Windows or Mac since it's displayed in many stores. Difference between Linux and windows / Macs is that you can download a version that specifically displays OS that relates to what you want to use it for. For example there's different distributions that are customized to be only used for editing software. or on the other hand many people just want to use the terminal or start with a o s that is used for coding. Either way you can find many different types of Linux that you can download anywhere on the internet. all of these being free. this is one of the main

Twenty systems will initially be imaged for Linux and configured to run on the existing network environment. A testing group will be compiled from departments across the organization to determine how the operating system meets user needs in various departments. After a ten day testing period, any problems identified can be resolved as required to support a seamless transition. The phased migration can then be completed 50 systems at a time, cycling the Linux systems in and the XP systems out. As the XP systems are collected, Linux will be installed on them to continue with the phased concept. Diagram B displays how the systems will be tested, configured and distributed. Additional factors need to be taken into consideration for this project
During my semester off in spring of 2012, I was in China taking care of my paternal grandfather who passed away from lung cancer the April of that year. I was raised by my paternal grandparents and was really close to him. While I was in China, I volunteered at the Fujian Medical University Affiliated First Hospital. I mainly worked in the pediatric ward where I assisted physicians as they went on their rounds and helped with physican exmainations and took down medical history. I also served as translator for patients and families that spoke English. That summer I shadowed Dr Simon Chang, a Radiation Oncologist at the New York Presbyterian Hospital.
There are many reasons why I would like to be a staff, while I have played some days I see no Staff on the server, And there are people who spam chat with servers or people will abuse features or hack and scam as i as a regular player on the Cyclone Network cannot do anything about these problems/players. I really love this server and love the people on it, and I want everyone to have the experience I have had playing on the Cyclone Network server I don't want the server to be full of hackers, scammers, and abusers. If you ask most people who know me they will most likely say I am nice and caring, because
In order to first begin to create a website one needs not only come up with a name and logo, if they do not already have one, but also need to buy a domain name. The domain name can be bought from many different Host websites, such as GoDaddy and Network Solutions, and should be short and easy for people to remember and type. One is less likely to get traffic through their site if the domain name is hard to type and/or remember.

What are your past experiences of being a staff member: I've been Helper, Mod , Admin and even Owner on different servers in the timeline of 3 years. And mostly on Faction servers. Not on hcf yet, but you need to start somewhere :D
There is sufficient fake news today that validation of certain packets of SOCMINT might have to simply be thrown on the back burner. There is so little fact checking anyways so one implication is that SOCMINT will be directed to the final user and mass-disseminated if it must reach a large group with the ever present stamp “take this with a grain of salt” or “rumor has it…” The benefit of seeing the big picture remains and patterns can still be detected. “The massive sample size creates something of a normalizing effect and enables higher confidence levels in the inferring of trends, anomalies and patterns which might normally escape notice with small datasets, with implications for future predictions.” (Lim, 2015. 4).
Generally I am online for 2 – 4 hours a day, everyday. I don't keep track of what time this is usually at, as it can depend, but usually its in the afternoon or evening.
NOTE: This is not all the servers, these are the most successful ones. Comment below if you need proof.
The CSO or CIO should establish policies as to what data is allowed to be stored on mobile devices, what level of protection is required, and what access to internal systems various mobile devices can have. Regularly, these policies are part of the overall data management and access management policies. The network administrator and IT manager usually decide on which tools to use to ensure that password, virtual private network, access control, and malware protection requirements are followed. They may also decide on which types of mobile devices are authorized for use with company data and services. Managers and users are responsible for following these policies. It is tempting for employees to use personal devices with forbidden data and

Computer viruses are minute program which is “embedded inside an application or within a data file which can copy itself into another program“(Adams et al, 2008 ) for the sole determination of meddling with normal computer operations. The consequences may range from corruption and deletion of data; propagation of virus on to network and deployment through attachments through emails in order to further creating havoc to all associated computing devices.
