Whether you’re trying to get into a nightclub, your house, or your computer, you will need something that only you possess. On a Acomputer network, users’ passwords have to be strong enough so that Dwayne can’t guess Norm’s password and Norm can’t steal Dwayne’s password (since Dwayne might have written it on the bottom of his keyboard). Bottom line—one weak password can circumvent secure host configurations, up-to-date patches, and stringent firewall rules. In general an attacker has two choices when trying to ascertain a password. He can ob- tain a copy of the password or hash if encrypted and then use brute-force tools to crack the encrypted hash. Or he can try to guess a password. Password cracking is an old technique that is most successful because humans are not very good random sequence generators.

  • Hydra: a Declarative Approach to Continuous Integration1
    Hydra: A Declarative Approach to Continuous Integration1 Eelco Dolstra, Eelco Visser Department of Software Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EWI), Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Abstract There are many tools to support continuous integration: the process of automatically and con- tinuously building a project from a version management repository. However, they do not have good support for variability in the build environment: dependencies such as compilers, libraries or testing tools must typically be installed manually on all machines on which automated builds are performed. In this paper we present Hydra, a continuous build tool based on Nix, a package manager that has a purely functional language for describing package build actions and their dependencies. This allows the build environment for projects to be produced automatically and deterministically, and so significantly reduces the effort to maintain a continuous integration en- vironment. 1. Introduction Hydra is a tool for continuous integration testing and software release that uses a purely func- tional language to describe build jobs and their dependencies. Continuous integration (Fowler and Foemmel 2006) is a simple technique to improve the quality of the software development process. An automated system continuously or periodically checks out the source code of a project, builds it, runs tests, and produces reports for the developers. Thus, various errors that might accidentally be committed into the code base are automatically caught. Such a system allows more in-depth testing than what developers could feasibly do manually: • Portability testing: The software may need to be built and tested on many different plat- forms.

  • Answer on Question #54811, Physics / Other Task: Describe in Brief Any Five High Level Networking Software Systems
    Answer on Question #54811, Physics / Other Task: Describe in brief any five high level networking software systems. Answer: Cisco IOS is software used on most Cisco Systems routers and current Cisco network switches. IOS is a package of routing, switching, internetworking and telecommunications functions integrated into a multitasking operating system. In all versions of Cisco IOS, packet routing and forwarding (switching) are distinct functions. Routing and other protocols run as Cisco IOS processes and contribute to the Routing Information Base (RIB). This is processed to generate the final IP forwarding table (FIB, Forwarding Information Base), which is used by the forwarding function of the router. On router platforms with software-only forwarding (e.g., Cisco 7200) most traffic handling, including access control list filtering and forwarding, is done at interrupt level using Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) or dCEF (Distributed CEF). This means IOS does not have to do a process context switch to forward a packet. Routing functions such as OSPF or BGP run at the process level. In routers with hardware-based forwarding, such as the Cisco 12000 series, IOS computes the FIB in software and loads it into the forwarding hardware (such as an ASIC or network processor), which performs the actual packet forwarding function.Cisco IOS has a "monolithic" architecture, which means that it runs as a single image and all processes share the same memory space. Juniper Junos is the FreeBSD-based operating system used in Juniper Networks hardware routers. It is an operating system that is used in Juniper's routing, switching and security devices.

  • Bab 9 Pengenalan Jaringan Komputer
    11 BAB 9 PENGENALAN JARINGAN KOMPUTER Jaringan komputer, atau jaringan data, adalah jaringan telekomunikasi digital yang memungkinkan simpul untuk berbagi sumber daya. Dalam jaringan komputer, perangkat komputasi jaringan bertukar data satu sama lain menggunakan data link. Sambungan antar simpul dibuat menggunakan media kabel atau media nirkabel. Perangkat komputer jaringan yang berasal, rute dan penghentian data disebut node jaringan. Node dapat mencakup host seperti komputer pribadi, telepon, server serta perangkat keras jaringan. Dua perangkat seperti itu dapat dikatakan jaringan bersama bila satu perangkat dapat bertukar informasi dengan perangkat lain, apakah mereka memiliki hubungan langsung atau tidak langsung satu sama lain. Dalam kebanyakan kasus, protokol komunikasi khusus aplikasi berlapis (yaitu dibawa sebagai muatan) melalui protokol komunikasi umum lainnya. Koleksi teknologi informasi yang tangguh ini membutuhkan pengelolaan jaringan yang terampil agar tetap berjalan dengan andal. Jaringan komputer mendukung sejumlah besar aplikasi dan layanan seperti akses ke World Wide Web, video digital, audio digital, penggunaan bersama dari server aplikasi dan penyimpanan, printer, dan mesin faks, dan penggunaan aplikasi email dan pesan instan serta banyak lainnya Jaringan komputer berbeda dalam media transmisi yang digunakan untuk membawa sinyal mereka, protokol komunikasi untuk mengatur lalu lintas jaringan, ukuran jaringan, topologi dan maksud organisasi. Jaringan komputer yang paling terkenal adalah Internet. 9.1 Sejarah Kronologi perkembangan jaringan komputer yang signifikan meliputi: l Pada akhir 1950-an, jaringan komputer awal mencakup sistem radar militer A.S. Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE). l Pada tahun 1959, Anatolii Ivanovich Kitov mengusulkan kepada Komite Sentral Partai Komunis Uni Soviet sebuah rencana terperinci untuk pengorganisasian kembali kendali angkatan bersenjata Soviet dan ekonomi Soviet berdasarkan jaringan pusat komputasi , OGAS.
