Viruses, Biometrics, & Encryptions
The Code Red worm was a computer worm first observed on July 13, 2001 that attacked computers running Microsoft's IIS web server. It caused over 359,000 computers to be infected by July 19th. A worm is a type of virus that spreads from computer to computer over networks like the internet and email to infect many systems quickly. Biometric security systems like fingerprint or eye scans offer improved authentication over passwords by requiring something unique to the individual rather than just a password. However, biometrics can be less reliable for some groups and more expensive than other options.

What types of viruses can affect your computer
Computer Viruses, a portion of a computer program that has been designed to furtively copy itself into other similar canons or computer codes. It's generally created by a prankster or defacer to effect a non-utilitarian result or to destroy data and program , in the case of ransomware.
False alarms
A false alarm occurs when an anti-virus program mistakenly flags an innocent file as infected. This can be costly as it wastes time and resources to investigate and disinfect the falsely detected files. False alarms happen for reasons such as anti-virus programs making files harder to analyze, over-detection of protected files, and errors in heuristic analysis. Common files that generate false alarms include software from companies like AVG, Kaspersky, and Eset as well as programs like Skype, Babylon, and Imesh. The best way to handle false alarms is to check if the anti-virus program giving the alarm has a trusted seal from a major anti-virus company.
Computer virus
Computer viruses are malicious code that replicates by copying itself to other programs and can change computer performance. Viruses require user permission to spread. Some famous viruses include I Love You, Cryptolocker, and MyDoom. Viruses spread by sharing infected files, visiting infected websites, opening spam emails or attachments, downloading unverified programs, and failing to read software license agreements fully. Symptoms of viruses include slow performance, erratic behavior, data loss, and frequent crashes. Protection methods include not opening suspicious messages, deleting spam, updating the OS regularly, using antivirus software, and only downloading from trusted sites.
Web virus activity
This document provides instructions for a web-based activity on computer viruses. It defines viruses and lists two forms of electronic infection: email viruses that replicate by sending themselves to contacts, and worms that use security holes to spread. Code Red is described as the first worm to reside only in memory. Early viruses from the late 1980s spread on floppy disks between PCs and bulletin boards. Executable and boot sector viruses are now less threatening due to larger program sizes being distributed on CDs. The ILOVEYOU virus of 2000 spread as an email attachment that automatically sent itself to contacts and corrupted files. Protection methods include enabling macro protection and using antivirus software. Reasons for creating viruses include monetary schemes, learning/

Trojan appears to be useful program but contain hidden code's such as virus.
Virus (Trojan Horse and Salami Attack)
A Trojan horse is a malicious program that gives full control of an infected computer to another system. It can copy itself and harm the host computer. A salami attack involves committing many small crimes, like stealing small amounts from multiple bank accounts, that together result in a larger crime that is hard to detect. Computer viruses can copy themselves and infect systems without permission, affecting system performance and installing programs incorrectly. Anti-virus software is needed to protect against computer viruses.
Computer viruses and antiviruses PPT
A computer virus is a malicious program that can copy itself and infect computers without permission. It spreads when an infected computer is connected to uninfected ones, such as via a network or removable storage. There are different types of viruses that infect different parts of a computer system. Malware is a broader term that includes viruses as well as other malicious software like spyware, adware, worms, and trojans. Anti-virus software uses techniques like signature matching, sandboxing, and heuristics to identify and remove viruses and other malware from an infected system. Users should practice safe computing habits and use anti-virus software to help prevent and remove virus infections.
Virus and worms
Viruses and worms are malicious programs that can damage computers. Viruses attach themselves to files and spread when those files are opened, while worms can spread automatically from one computer to another without human action. Basic virus structure involves looking for infectable objects, infecting them, and then returning control to the infected program. Worms differ in that they replicate and spread automatically between systems rather than needing a host program. Protecting against viruses and worms involves keeping systems updated, using antivirus software, conducting regular scans, and employing a firewall.
Trojan Horse Virus
This document discusses Trojan horse viruses. It defines a Trojan horse as malicious software that disguises itself as a legitimate program to gain access to a system. It notes that Trojans can install keyloggers or spread to others in a user's contacts. The document provides tips to avoid infection like verifying downloads and using antivirus software. It recommends tools like SmitFraudFix and Ewido to remove Trojans from an infected system.
Viruses, Worms And Trojan Horses
Viruses, worms, and Trojan horses are malicious software programs that can infect computers. Viruses typically infect computers through opening infected email attachments and then replicate quickly, spreading from one computer to another worldwide. Some viruses just overwhelm email servers with messages, while others may lie dormant for a period of time before deleting files or entire hard drives. In 1988, a virus accidentally sent by a student infected over 6,000 computers in minutes, nearly crashing the internet. To protect against these digital threats, users should run regular antivirus software to scan incoming emails and files for infections.
Trojan Horse Presentation
A Trojan horse is a type of malware that disguises itself as legitimate software to trick users into installing it. There are two main types: programs with malicious code inserted by hackers, and standalone files masquerading as something harmless like a game. Trojans can carry various payloads like time bombs, logic bombs, or droppers. To avoid infection, users should only download software from trusted sources, use antivirus tools, and avoid unexpected file attachments.

What is malware
Simon Pell gave a presentation on malware threats facing small businesses. He defined different types of malware like viruses, trojans, worms, and rootkits. Viruses self-replicate and infect files, while trojans and worms do not self-replicate but can still damage files. Rootkits are used to hide other malware. Spyware/adware collects user information without consent. Cookies are small text files that store website preferences. Pell stressed the importance of using updated antivirus software, firewalls, and being cautious of downloads. Firewalls can control network access and applications without slowing performance. Unified threat management provides additional protections like blocking suspicious websites and spam.
The process of computer security
Computer security is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of our computer. Prevention measures help us to stop unauthorized users from accessing any part of your computer system. Detection helps us to determine whether or not someone attempted to break into the system, if they were successful, and what they may have done.

Risk and Threat Assessment Report
The rise of innovation and technological advancement has affected the aspects of technology in different ways. Improvement of software and operating systems gives hackers a reason to strive and develop more complex forms of overweighing security measures on those applications. Traditional application security best practices and secure coding are often recommended in protecting different applications against runtime attacks.
Runtime application self-protection is an emerging application in the protection of software applications, data, and databases. The increase in attacks has triggered the development of security technology that is linked or build into an application runtime environment. Besides, database deployment is safeguarded by run time application self-protection that can control the execution of applications, detecting, and preventing real-time attacks. The threats and risks associated with operating systems, networks, and software systems are significant concerns to users.
The internet has changed how people do their businesses. With the growth of e-commerce and other online transactions, there has been a subsequent increase in internet risk threats that are commonly occasioned by hacking and malware attacks. There are different types of e-commerce threats and might be accidental, deliberately done by perpetrators, or occur due to human error. The most prevalent threats are money theft, unprotected services, credit card fraud, hacking, data misuse, and phishing attacks. Heats associated with online transactions can be prevented or reduced by keeping the credit cards safe. Consumers/customers should be advised to avoid carrying their credit cards in their wallets since they increase the chances of misplacement. Each buyer should be cautious when using their you’re their online credit information.
The advancement in technology has seen an increase in online transactions. The practice of doing business transactions via the internet is called e-commerce. Their growth has subsequently lead to the rise in internet risk threats that are commonly occasioned by hacking and malware attacks. E-commerce is the activity of conducting transactions via the internet. Internet transactions can be drawn on various technologies, including internet marketing, electronic data exchanges, automated data collection systems, electronic fund transfer, and mobile commerce.
Online transaction threats occur by using the internet for unfair means with the aim of fraud, security breach, and stealing. The use of electronic payment systems has a substantial risk of fraud. It uses the identity of a customer to authorize a payment like security questions and passwords. If someone accesses a customer's password, he will gain access to his accounts and.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
