The presence of an information security audit increases the probability of adopting major security measures and preventing these attacks or lowering the cyber world attacks.
VAPT includes auditing the system for finding vulnerabilities, which may be exist on the system; exploit that vulnerability same as an attacker perspective and produce data which representing the system level risk.
PeopleSoft: HACK THE Planet^W universityDmitry Iudin
The PeopleSoft Campus Solutions is used in more than 1000 universities worldwide. In this presentation, we will show how to use several vulnerabilities to gain access to the entire information system of the University. And it means grade fraud, sabotage, access to student information, access to credit cards, bills, payment plans, fees, etc. In this presentation, we'll look at the architecture of PeopleSoft products, its strengths and weaknesses. We show attack surface and demonstrate a practical attack on the system. We also prove how one vulnerability affects a whole family of products, Oracle PeopleSoft, not just PeopleSoft Campus Solutions.
DIDAR: Database Intrusion Detection with Automated RecoveryAsankhaya Sharma
In this project we present a new architecture for database intrusion detection. We
implement this framework called DIDAR (Database Intrusion Detection with Automated
Recovery) and discuss the performance issues. Recently there has been considerable
interest in the design of intrusion detection system for databases. Most of the current
systems take a laid back approach and concentrate more on containment and recovery
once the database has been infected by malicious transaction. We propose a more
proactive solution; DIDAR aims to detect the intrusions as soon as possible with support
for damage containment and auto recovery as well. DIDAR provides intrusion tolerance
by working in two phases – learning and detection. During the learning phase we build a
model of the legitimate queries for each user based on the currently executing
transactions and later use that model to detect the malicious transactions. DIDAR
guarantees quality of information assurance at four different levels for each user. We
have positive results based on our prototype and preliminary testing on synthetic
database. With almost no load to the database DIDAR achieves high detection rates,
quick damage containment and full recovery.
This presentation targets to guiding security expert and developer to protect PaaS deployment to eliminate security threats. This also introduces Threat Modeling.
Business value of business models
Requirements for software development
Requirements provide a description of what a proposed software application should do. Without detailed requirements, application development projects fail. Business models capture this detail in a way that is understandable to both the business users and the software developers. Business users do not need to understand how the system will be created; they need to understand how it will support their need. Business models are a better form of requirements for end users.

What is a business model?
A business model is a simple representation of the complex reality of a particular organization.
Business models are useful for understanding how a business is organized, who interacts with whom, what goals and strategies are being pursued, what work the business performs, and how it performs that work.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
