As far as I remember this type of social engineering attack is called fishing. You should be more patient. Check all the links you receive. They can be similar to links to the official websites, but there could be little differences. If you noticed this difference, DON'T follow this link. They will grab your e-mail and your password will be changed automatically.

Phishing is the social engineering attack which uses email to direct you to their their website where they claim you need to update/validate your information and threatens dire consequences if you don't. This type of attack tells you to go to a counterfeit copy of a legitimate web site and enter private or security information. These private information can be later used for identity theft or to access to your financial resources.

Answer:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main

{

public static void main(String[] args) {

 Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

 

 System.out.print("Enter a number: ");

 int userVal = input.nextInt();

 

 String aString;

 if(userVal < 0)

     aString = "negative";

 else

     aString = "non-negative";

     

 System.out.println(aString);

}

}

Explanation:

Ask the user to enter a number and set it to userVal

Check the value of userVal. If it is smaller than 0, set the string as "negative". If it is not, set it as "non-negative"

Print the string

If you were to design a range of athletic shoes for various sports activities, what key factors would you consider during the de
mylen [45]
With this you just have to think about what do different shoes do and why? For example, track shoes need to be extremely light to make it so the runners don't need to move excess weight to accelerate faster whereas basketball shoes can be heavier because they need high ankle coverage for more ankle support during moves like the crossover. Then the key factors that I would do personally are: difficulty to produce, benefit to athlete, cost to athlete, weight, and support. My advice would be to systematically go through a bunch of sports and talk about each of their shoes...

What's the difference between an operating system and an application software?​
Serjik [45]

Answer:

An operating system is something that controls the functions of an application software(app). The app does specific tasks for the end-user; the end user is someone who is, or is supposed to, use a product. The app uses API to request services from the operating system. If the user is interacting direct with software, it is an application software.

Which frequency will 802.11n work on if on a single-link network?
Allushta [10]

802.11n can function in "mixed mode" on the 2.4 GHz frequency, with a theoretical maximum speed of 300 Mbps, or on the 5 GHz frequency.

<h3>What do you mean by frequency?</h3>

In the case of electrical current, frequency is the number of times a sine wave repeats or completes, a positive-to-negative cycle.

802.11n can operate in "mixed mode" on the 2.4 GHz frequency, which will support just 802.11b or 802.11g-capable systems but will slow the entire network down to the maximum speed of the earliest standard connected, at a theoretical maximum speed of 300 Mbps.
