Answer:

Rainbow table attack

Explanation:

A rainbow table attack is a type of network attack or hacking where the hacker tries to utilize a rainbow hash table to crack the passwords in a database system. A rainbow table itself is a hash function used in cryptography for saving important data in a database. Especially passwords.

In this process, sensitive data are hashed two or multiple times with the same key or with different keys so as to avoid rainbow table attack. In a rainbow table attack, the hacker simply compares the hash of the original password against hashes stored in the rainbow table and when they find a match, they then identify the password used to create the hash.

In which part of a presentation should you provide background information, ask a thoughtful question, or offer an interesting

makkiz [27]

The correct answer is A. Opening

Explanation:

In a presentation or the text, the opening is the first section that should allow the audience to understand what is the topic and focus. This is achieved through a hook that can include an interesting fact or a rhetorical question (a question that makes the audience think) because these two elements grab the attention of the audience. Additionally, after the hook, it is common to provide background information about the topic of the presentation, and finally, the speaker will state the main point or thesis statement. This occurs before the body of the presentation, which is the main section, and the closing, which is the last section. Thus, elements such as background information or an interesting fact are part of the opening.

Svetllana [295]

You should design and develop the computer system with two serial ATA (SATA) hard drives installed on it.

<h3>What is a computer?</h3>

A computer can be defined as an electronic device that is designed and developed to receive data in its raw form as an input and it processes these data into an output (information), which can be used to perform a specific task through the use of the following computer parts:

Keyboard

Network

Monitor screen

Mouse

Hard drive

<h3>What is a hard drive?</h3>

A hard drive can be defined as an electro-mechanical, non-volatile data storage device that is made up of magnetic disks (platters) that rotates at high speed.

Based on the information provided, we can logically deduce that you're required to design and developed a computer with two serial ATA (SATA) hard drives.

In conclusion, you should follow the aforementioned steps to develop this computer with two serial ATA (SATA) hard drives installed on it.

What is the output of the following code segment? int n = 0; for (int k = 0; k< 2; k++) {n=n +2;} cout << n; oo 0 1 O O

inn [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The loop is used to execute the part of code or statement again and again until a condition is not true.

syntax of for loop:

for(initialize; condition; increment/decrement){

statement;

}

in the question, the value of n is zero.

then, for loop check the condition k<2, initially the value of k is zero. so, the condition is true and execute the code n = 0 +2=2

Then, k is increment by 1. so, the value of k is 1.

then, again loop run and check the condition 1<2, it true. then n = 2+2=4.

then, k is increment by 1. so, the value of k is 2.

Then, again check the condition 2<2, condition false and program terminate the loop and finally print the value 4.
