Answer:

A) Violation of Confidentiality and Source Integrity:

Passwords are very confidential information and are usually protected by both the owner and the ower of the system (which in this case is Yahoo). To obtain the passwords, the hacker had to illegally gain access to the source of the data which is on Yahoo servers. Hence a breach of confidentiality and lack of adequate integrity on the part of Yahoo.

B) Source Integrity: Anthony accidentally cuts the electricity from the server room. Why would he be able to do that? how did he gain access into the server room? This speaks to source integrity. People should not be able to access the server room except they are authorised.

C) Source Integrity and Confidentiality: NSA finds an efficient method to break AES. AES refers to the Advanced Encryption Standard. AES is a symmetric encryption technology known as a block cipher.

It is used by the United States Government for the classification of information. Their ability to break this code speaks to Violation of Source Integrity. In this case, they haven't exactly hacked any document. However, any document that was encrypted using this technology is already compromised at the source.

D)   Anna registers the domain name, "JohnSmith" and refuses to let John Smith buy or use the domain name: Violation of Availability.

It is assumed here that John Smith was the original owner of the domain but it was highjacked at expiration and registered by Anna. This kind of breach is called Violation of Availability of the domain name.

E) Some malware encrypts the victim’s hard drive with a secret key and a criminal asks for a ransom to decrypt.

This move is called the Ransomeware attack. The Integrity of the source of information (which is the hard drive) is already compromised. This is a combination of Source Integrity or availability and confidentiality violation.

F) The wiretapping of a cell phone is a breach of confidentiality and data integrity.

G) when there is a vulnerability in a system or software that is unknown to those who should be interested, it is called a Zero-Day vulnerability. Where there is a Zero-Day vulnerability there could be a violation of confidentiality, data integrity, source data and or it's availability.

Cheers!

Assume the following JavaScript program was interpreted using staticscoping rules. What value of x is displayed in function sub1
Annette [7]

Answer:

Static scoping: x is 5

Dynamic scoping : x is 10.

Explanation:

Static scoping :

In static scoping the variable of a function take the value within the function.

If there is no values exist within the function then take the global value of the variable.

var x // No value is assigned to x so it check global value of x

function sub1() {

   document.write(“x = “ + x + “”); // So it print x = 5

}

function sub2() {

   var x;

   x = 10;

   sub1();

}

x = 5; // It is the global value of x

sub2();

Static scoping: x is 5

Dynamic scoping :

In Dynamic scoping the variable of a function take the value all the calling function ends.

If the global value is the last assigned value of a variable then it take that value.

If there exist some other function after global variable value if that function contain the variable with some assigned value variable take that value.

var x

function sub1() {

   document.write(“x = “ + x + “”);

}

x = 5; // At this point x value is 5 and check there exist a function

sub2(); // So now call this function

function sub2() {

   var x;

   x = 10; // The value of x = 5 is replaced with x = 10

   sub1();

}

Dynamic scoping : x is 10.

<h3>Which is integration testing?</h3>

Unit and System testing are various testing levels where the Unit testing is used to test each unit or an individual component of the software application. The integration testing is used only after the functional testing is completed on each module of the application.
