Netiquette
▪ Netiquette is the term used to describe the rules of
etiquette that apply to electronic
communications. It is important to use good
netiquette when communicating with me and with
your classmates, so I ask that you abide by the rules
of netiquette in all aspects of this course. These
rules are basically common sense things, but I feel
they are important enough to reiterate here.

Netiquette cont.
▪ The rules of netiquette you will be expected to follow in this course are as
follows:
▪ Be clear.
– Use Standard English and do not abbreviate.
– Spell check, revise and edit your messages before sending them.
– Use appropriate subject lines that reflect the content of the message.
▪ Be polite and careful.
– Do not use ALL UPPERCASE LETTERS!!! or multiple exclamation marks, as it is
sometimes difficult to understand the tone of the message.
– Typing in all capital letters is synonymous to yelling at someone.
– Avoid sarcasm and irony, which can be misinterpreted by the reader.
– Refrain from using inappropriate or offensive language.
– Remember you are not talking to a machine; there is a person on the other end of
your message.

Netiquette cont.
▪ Demonstrate respect for the opinions of others when responding to
your classmates.
▪ Remember that you are communicating within a classroom and
behave accordingly.
▪ Be forgiving of other people's mistakes.
▪ Always remain calm, even if you believe someone has insulted you.
▪ Disagree respectfully and with facts, not gossip.
▪ Apply the golden rule -- treat others the way you would like to be
treated.

Important Dates

the store in your town)
▪ Teams will be split among the class with two captains
▪ Team captains will choose either Wendy’s or Dunkin Donuts
▪ Each team will research their company’s Wi-Fi information to
determine: a) If it is a safe bet to use their company’s Wi-Fi and b) If
it is a safe bet to use the other team’s company’s Wi-Fi

non-malicious reasons such as to test
system security vulnerabilities.

access to your computer and take
almost complete control of it
without your knowledge.

code that is unique to a particular
computer virus.

statements about cookies
is NOT true? Cookies
obtain your personal
information by searching
your hard drive.

website.

This Week’s Agenda: Tuesday, November 29th, 2016
▪Ava, Cam, & Mariely
Presentation

Phishing and Pharming
▪ Phishing
– Luring people into revealing
information
▪ Pharming
– Malicious code planted on
your computer to gather
information
▪ Guidelines to avoid schemes
▪ When malicious code is
planted on your computer
and alters your browser's
ability to find web
addresses, it is known as
pharming.

Scareware and Firewalls
▪ Type of malware
▪ Attempts to convince you
something is wrong … and to
pay money to fix it
▪ Firewall—hardware or software
▪ Windows and OS X include
firewalls
▪ Security suites include firewall
software
▪ You can block logical ports
from invaders and make
your computer invisible to
others on the Internet by
installing a firewall.
▪ Configuring a firewall to ignore
all incoming packets that
request access to a specific port
is known as logical port
blocking.

Preventing Viruses
▪ Antivirus software
– Detects viruses and
protects your computer. Like Symantec,
Kaspersky, AVG, McAfee
▪ Need strong passwords. Password
strength tests
▪ Operating systems have built-in password
protection
▪ Biometrics: Fingerprint, Iris pattern in eye,
Voice authentication, Face pattern
recognition
▪ Provide a high level of security
▪ Rules for creating
passwords include all of
the following EXCEPT use a
dictionary to find a
lengthy word that is easy
to remember.

Protecting Data
▪ Protect your personal
Information. Backups are copies
of data
▪ Backup your data from:
Unauthorized access,
Tampering, Destruction
▪ Power surges
▪ Surge protector
– Replace every 2–3 years
– Use with all devices that have
solid-state components
▪ Social engineering is any
technique that uses social
skills to generate human
interaction that entices
individuals to reveal
sensitive information.

Preventing Theft
▪ Four main security concerns with mobile devices:
–Keeping them from being stolen
–Keeping data secure in case they are stolen
–Finding a device if it is stolen
–Remotely recovering and wiping data off a stolen
device

Security Exam
▪ 25 Questions
▪ On MyITLab
▪ The Yellow Text in this PPT are the questions
and answers. The answers are in boldface.
▪ Study those statements.

▪Ava, Cam & Mariely
Presentation

Review from Last Tuesday
▪ Hackers go after the Elderly due to their financial stability and
Young adults due to their available credit
▪ Google Images is a stronger tool than Google Search in viewing
your digital footprint
▪ Mobile devices are at the same risk as your personal computers
▪ Using Wi-Fi is risky; look for Wi-Fi with a password to make it a
little more secure

Zero Days Video Discussion
▪ What are Zero Days?
–Vulnerabilities in the code that can be hacked
▪ What are Bug Bounties?
–Payment for identifying a zero day in the
software/code
▪ You can either fix a Zero Day, pay someone to
fix it, or get hacked

Protect Yourself
▪ Protecting yourself on your personal computer and mobile devices is a
primary concern
▪ Your data [whether personal like bank account or professional like
work documents] can be useful resources to hackers
▪ Use strategies to prevent issues and continue to be educated about
cybersecurity

Encrypt Me
▪ Read pg. 557 in Tech in Action to answer questions 1 & 2 within
Topic 3 on Security Assignment 2
▪ Wi-Fi Encryption
▪ Data Encryption
▪ Web Encryption

Encrypt Me – Defining Encryption
▪ A methodology using algorithms to modify data, text, code, etc. to prevent
the opportunity of hacking and misuse of information
▪ Courses such as Cryptography devote a substantial amount of time
towards this process
▪ Encryption can exist as: Wi-Fi Encryption, Data Encryption, and Web
Encryption
▪ Encryption can be one of the most secure ways to protect your computer
and mobile device

Encrypt Me – Wi-Fi Encryption
▪ Wi-Fi Encryption is the encryption method you take to protect outside access to your network
[whether at home or not]
▪ Three common types are WEP, WPA, WPA2
▪ Wired Equivalent Privacy can be 64, 128, or 256 bit encryptions; commonly used, but easily
hacked
▪ Wi-Fi Protected Access is 256 bit encryption; created due to the vulnerabilities of WEP
▪ Wi-Fi Protected Access II is an updated version of WPA and the most secure encryption tool for
Wi-Fi

Encrypt Me – Data Encryption
▪ Focuses heavily on making text or information sent via email or
other online transmit difficult to decipher [or read]
▪ Substitution ciphers are the most common tool for this task

Encrypt Me – Web Encryption
▪ Look for the “lock” – it means the most secure websites
▪ Digital Certificates
– Like cookies; gives access based on
prior approval/visit [can expire]
▪ SSL Encryption
– Most common web encryption tool

Encrypt Me – Web Encryption of Social Media
▪ Twitter says:
– Secure Connection
– The connection to this site is encrypted and authenticated using a
strong protocol (TLS 1.2), a strong key exchange (ECDHE_RSA), and a
strong cipher (AES_128_GCM).
▪ Instagram says:
– Secure Connection
– The connection to this site is encrypted and authenticated using a
strong protocol (TLS 1.2), a strong key exchange (ECDHE_RSA), and a
strong cipher (CHACHA20_POLY1305).
▪ Your results may vary. A similar protocol, key exchange, and cipher are
perfectly fine, but often each site will have its own cipher.

Security Exam on Thursday
