ASCII is an agreement on which number represents which typographic character. Using this table you can look up the number of any character. For instance, "A" has 65, but that is a decimal. Next step is to represent this decimal number in hexadecimal. You can do that by taking the divisor and remainder of a division by 16. Numbers beyond 9 are represented as a through f. Hexadecimal numbers are commonly prefixed by "0x" to make them recognizable.

So "A" = 65 = 4*16+1 = 0x41

And "Z" = 90 = 5*16+10 = 0x5a

There are ASCII tables that have the hexadecimal value in them, to make the task easier (www.asciitable.com).

If you want to do this programmatically, you can write something like this (node.js):

console.log( Buffer.from('AZ', 'utf8').toString('hex'));

Note that the 0x prefix is not shown here.

Describe a situation in which you have experienced harm as a consequence of a failure of computer security. Was the failure mali

Andrei [34K]

Answer: The goals of computer security are to protect computers and users from data theft or loss as well as damage to any part of the computer.

Explanation: Common means of achieving computer security are firewalls, anti-virus software and this can fail due to hardware problems or weaknesses that prevent malicious attacks.

To answer this question, think of a time when you experienced any one of these. For example, personally, I was once an unfortunate victim of a general malicious attack that took advantage of a weakness in my anti-virus software. After clicking on a link on a dodgy website, a virus was installed on my computer. My computer finally crashed, without any hope of restarting it. I lost all my data and I had to buy a new computer. This was a malicious attack.

However, sometimes people can be specifically targeted to steal their data or monitor their activities.

Which sentences or phrases in the passage hint at a bad work habit? Samantha works as an intern at a marketing firm. She always

Verdich [7]

There are two sentences here that hint at a bad work habit.

1.She always shows up for work later than she is expected to but delivers her assignments as per her deadlines.

Here we see that Samantha not only is late to work, but she does it regularly. This is an example of a bad work habit, as being on time is one of the responsibilities of an employee. This also sends a bad massage to her coworkers, if she is not punished for it. That can lead to disorganization and loss of production.

2.She always tries her best to learn new skills even though she does not show up for work regularly.

Again, showing up for work is a must, except your company does not explicitly have a flexible work schedule that allows people to work from home or make their own working hours. In Samantha's case that does not seem to be the case and thus this is a bad habit.
