I also give example of someone who already rrspond to Baker
Baker Post
Data becomes useful information when it is provided with
context. A single piece of data is useless without being
included with a way to relate that data to something else. For
instance, a number by itself means nothing without some type of
context applied to it. Boyle gives this example: “Take the
number 37…now give it some context: 37 degrees C is normal
body temperature” (Boyle, 2011). The number by itself is
merely a data point, but when provided context it becomes a
useful piece of information that can be put to use. However, as
our society has become so reliant on the internet, data is often
pushed out instantly without any chance to provide a true
context to the situation. There have been an unprecedented
amount of controversial situations in recent memory that were
brought to public attention without proper context being
provided. This has the effect of allowing the public to form
opinions without all the information necessary to have a truly
informed opinion. Fayoyin and Ngwainmbi wrote, “Data and
social statistics have been misinterpreted and misrepresented
causing major misinformation within interpersonal and mass
communication” (Fayoyin and Ngwainmbi, 2014). This is a
problem that has been constant for a long time but has only
been made significantly worse with the emergence of social
media.
A primary source is an original document or source
of some kind. If the source of information is an eyewitness or
you get the information directly from an expert in a given field
it would be considered a primary source. An example would be
an autobiography as an individual is writing about their
experiences first hand. A secondary source is when the
information is derived from someone who was either told about
or heard about the information from the primary source. A good
example for a secondary source would be a biography that either
takes the information from the individual themselves or from
things they have written.
For my paper I have found a primary source that was
written by one of the most wanted hackers of all time: Kevin
Mitnick titled Famed Hacker Kevin Mitnick Shows You How to
Go Invisible Online. Mitnick here gives a common example of
how hackers today are able to ensure they cover their tracks and
are not detected, at least with any certainty. Another primary
source I will use was written by Richard Hummel from the
SANS Institute who wrote a paper entitled, Securing Against the
Most Common Vectors o Cyber Attacks. A secondary source
that I will be utilizing is one that discusses many of the biggest
known cyber attacks written by Bruce Middleton titled A
History of Cyber Security Attacks: 1980 to Present.

Example of someone who response to Baker post
enjoyed reading your statement in regard on when data can
become usable. I do agree with you a single data with no access
for dissemination does not provide a chance for others to
dispute data validity. Data with no verification is just data that
it cannot be use. Last year during US senator’s election many
television outlets started informing the audience unverified
information on the news and after too many allegations many of
those candidates just decided to drop their names from the list
of participants even if they only had the best intention to serve
their communities. The Television news that it supposed to
report after information has been verified. Hackers do the same
when they get a hold a new phone number usually they start
calling to phishing for verifying to whom belongs the phone
number and try to get as much information as possible for them
to used data for future attack or financial gain. Great primary
source for your paper, I am sure you will do well. Thanks for
sharing your ideas.
Our country remains divided in so many issues like some states
approving drugs into their states with the idea to build revenue
for their states on behaves of the youth. Many senators openly
promotes approving marihuana in their states. We have at least
11 states who openly proclaims to be openly to try into their
states and we are glad that the majority of people are against
this idea. The news outlets needs to become more responsible
in telling the people the truth in regards how drugs is affecting
our way of life and the future of our teens.
