This document discusses various types of program and system threats including Trojan horses, trapdoors, buffer overflows, worms, viruses, and denial of service attacks. A Trojan horse masquerades as legitimate software to gain unauthorized access. Trapdoors are secret vulnerabilities built into programs by designers. Buffer overflows occur when more data is input than a program expects, potentially allowing code execution. Worms self-replicate to spread while viruses require host files or human action. Examples like the Morris worm and Love Bug virus are provided. Protection involves antivirus software and safe computing practices. The key differences between worms and viruses are also outlined.

Security is a journey, not a destination. This is a security industry axiom that means we can strive for security, and by making this effort, we can put ourselves on a path to security. But while we may achieve a relative degree of security, our businesses will never be 100 percent secure—the destination we all strive for. Even Fort Knox, the White House and the New York Stock Exchange are vulnerable.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. Trojan Horse
A Trojan horse is a code segment that misuses
its environment.
A Trojan, is a type of malware that
masquerades as a legitimate file or helpful
program possibly with the purpose of granting a
hacker unauthorized access to a computer.
According to a survey conducted by
BitDefender from January to June 2009,
"Trojan-type malware is on the rise, accounting
for 83-percent of the global malware detected
in the world."
4. Trojan Horse
• Long search paths, such as are
common on UNIX systems,
exacerbate the Trojan horse
problem. For instance, the use of
“.” character in a search path, tells
the shell to include the current
directory in the search. So, if an
user A has “.” in his search path,
has set his current directory to
user B’s directory, and enters a
normal system command, the
command would be executed from
user B’s directory instead. The
program would run on user B’s
domain, allowing the program to
do anything that the user is
allowed to do, including deleting
files.
5. Popular Trojan Horses
• Netbus
• Subseven or Sub7
• Y3K Remote
Administration Tool
• Back Orifice
• Beast
• Zeus
• The Blachhole Exploit Kit
• Flashback Trojan
6. Login Emulator
An unsuspecting user logs in at a
terminal and notices that he has
apparently mistyped his password.
He tries again and is successful.
What has happened is that his
authentication key and password
have been stolen by the login
emulator that was left running on
the terminal by the thief. The
emulator stored away the password,
printed out a login error message,
and exited; the user was then
provided with a genuine login
prompt.
7. A Trojan may give a hacker remote access to a targeted
computer system. Operations that could be performed by
a hacker on a targeted computer system may include:
– Use of the machine as part of a botnet (e.g. to perform
automated spamming or to distribute Denial-of-Service
attacks)
– Electronic Money theft
– Data Theft(e.g. retrieving passwords or credit card
information)
– Installation of software, including third-party malware
– Downloading or uploading of files on the user's computer
– Modification deletion of files
– Crashing the Computer
– Anonymizing Internet Viewing

9. Trapdoor
• Trap Door is a type of security breach where the
designer of a program or a system leaves a hole in
the software that only he is capable of using.
• A Trap Door is a secret entry point into a program
that allows someone to gain access without normal
methods of access authentication.
10. Example of a trapdoor
Programmers have been arrested for
embezzling from banks by including rounding
errors in heir code, and having the occasional
half cents credited to their accounts. This
account crediting can add up to a large sum of
money, considering the number of
transactions that a large bank executes.
11. Trapdoors
• Trapdoors can be included in the compiler as
well. The compiler could generate standard
object code as well as a trapdoor, regardless of
the source code being compiled.
• Trapdoors pose a difficult problem since to
detect them we have to analyze all the source
code for all components of a system.
12.
13. Stack and Buffer Overflow
• Stack or buffer overflow is the
most common way for an attacker
outside of the system, on a
network or dial-up connection to
gain unauthorized access to the
target system. This be used by the
unauthorised user for privilege
escalation.
• Buffer overflow attacks are
especially pernicious as it can be
run within a system and travel
over allowed communications
channels. They can even bypass
the security added by firewalls.
14. • The attacker exploits a bug in the program. The bug can
be a simple case of poor programming, in which the
programmer neglected to code bounds checking on an
input field. In this case, the attacker sends more data
than the program was expecting. Using trial and error,
or by examination of the source code of the attacked
program if it is available, the attacker determines the
vulnerability and writes a program to do the following:
1. Overflow an input field, command line argument, of
input buffer until it writes into the stack.
2. Overwrite the current return address on the stack
with the address of the exploit code loaded in the next
step.
3. Write a simple setoff code for the next space in the
stack that includes the commands that the attacker
wishes to execute (e.g. spawn a shell)

16. Worm
• A worm is a process that uses the
spawn mechanism to clobber system
performance.
• The worm spawns copies of itself,
using up system resources and
perhaps locking out system use by all
other processes.
17. Worms Spread
independently of human action
usually by utilizing a security hole in a piece
of software
by scanning a network for another machine that has
a specific security hole and copies itself to the new
machine using the security hole
18. Morris Worm
• Robert Tappan Morris is an
American computer scientist,
best known for creating the
Morris Worm in 1988,
considered the first
computer worm on Internet
- and subsequently
becoming the first person
convicted under Computer
Fraud and Abuse Act.
21. Morris Worm
Once in place, the main program undertook systematic attempts to
discover user passwords. This happened in 3 stages:
1. Trying simple cases of no passwords or passwords
constructed of account user name combinations.
2. Using comparisons with an internal dictionary of 432
password choices.
3. Trying each word in the online UNIX dictionary
This elaborate and efficient 3-stage password cracking algorithm
enabled the worm to gain further access to other user accounts on
the infected system.
With each new access the worm searched for already active copies
of itself. If it found one the new copy exited except for every
seventh instance.
22.
23. Computer Viruses
A virus is a fragment of code embedded in a
legitimate program unlike a worm which is
structured as a complete, standalone
program.
24. Spread of Viruses
• Viruses are spread by users
downloading viral programs
from public bulletin boards
or exchanging disks
containing an infection.
• Exchange of Microsoft
Office documents are a
common form of virus
transmission these days
because these documents
contain so-called macros
which are Visual Basic
programs.
25. Classification of Viruses
NON-RESIDENT VIRUSES
• Non-resident viruses can be
thought of as consisting of a
finder module and a
replication module. The
finder module is responsible
for finding new files to
infect. For each new
executable file the finder
module encounters, it calls
the replication module to
infect that file.
RESIDENT VIRUSES
• The virus loads the
replication module into
memory when it is executed
instead and ensures that
this module is executed
each time the operating
system is called to perform
a certain operation.
26. Classification (contd.)
POLYMORPHIC VIRUS
• Change virus’s signature
each time.
• It’s designed to avoid
detection by antivirus
software.
• It acts like a chameleon.
STEALTH VIRUS
• It use some tactics to avoid
detection such as altering
its file size, concealing itself
in memory, and Modifies
parts of the system that can
be used to detect it.
27. Creeper Virus
The Creeper virus was first
detected on ARPANET. Creeper
was an experimental selfreplicating program written by
Bob
Thomas
at
BBN
Technologies in 1971. Creeper
used the ARPANET to infect
DEC
PDP-10
computers
running the TENEX operating
system. Creeper gained access
via the ARPANET and copied
itself to the remote system
where the message, "I'm the
creeper, catch me if you can!"
was displayed. The Reaper
program was created to delete
Creeper.
28. Michelangelo Virus
On March 6, 1992, the 517th
birthday of Michelangelo,
the Michelangelo virus was
scheduled to erase infected
hard disk files. But because
of the extensive popularity
surrounding the virus, most
sites had detected and
destroyed the virus before it
was activated, so it caused
little or no damage.
29. Love Bug Virus
• In 2000, the Love Bug
became very widespread. It
appeared to be a love note
sent by the friend of the
receiver. Once invoked, by
opening the Virtual Basic
script, it propagated by
sending itself to the first
users in user’s email contact
list. It just clogged user’s
inbox and email systems, but
was relatively harmless.
30. Protection against Viruses
• The problem of viruses can be dealt with by using
antivirus software. They work by searching all the
programs on a system for the specific pattern of
instructions known to make up a virus. When
they find a known pattern, they remove the
instructions, disinfecting the program.
• The best protection against virus is the method of
safe computing : purchasing unopened software
from vendor and avoiding free or pirated copies
from public sources or disk exchange.

32. Worms v/s Viruses
WORMS
rely little or not at all on
humans to spread
VIRUSES
dependent upon a host file
spread across a network
need the help of humans to
spread
spread rapidly
take a while to spread
33.
34. Denial of Service
Denial of service does not involve stealing of
resources or gaining information, but rather
disabling legitimate use of a system or facilty.
It is easier than breaking into a machine.
They are network based.
They fall into 2 categories:
1. An attack that uses so many facility
resources that, in essence, no work can be done.
2. An attack that disrupts the network
facility of the computer.
It is impossible to prevent Denial of Service
attacks. Frequently it is difficult to determine if a
system slowdown is due to surge in use or an attack.
