  • Paypal's Security
    PayPal’s Security Key PayPal is a great service for enabling both businesses and consumers to buy and sell goods and services online without exposing private financial information to the other parties in a transaction. As a consumer, you can safely purchase goods and services online without exposing your credit or debit card information to be recorded and possibly misused. As a business, you can be paid for your goods or services using the Web or email without the need of storing your customer’s private financial information. A big concern with PayPal is that anyone who knows the password of your PayPal account can access the financial services that you have authorized to be used with PayPal. For consumers, this means that unauthorized purchases or cash transfer may be performed from your credit cards and bank accounts. As a business, unauthorized PayPal access can be a source of fraudulent purchases. Password security is always the responsibility of the PayPal account holder; but now PayPal has a service to make the disclosure of your PayPal password an almost insignificant threat. In February 2007, PayPal introduced an optional security key system for users to access their PayPal accounts. The security key does not replace your PayPal password; instead, it adds an extra layer of security by requiring an additional security code be entered with your password when you log into your PayPal account. What makes this security code so different from a password is that it randomly generated by a small, electronic device called a security token, which is a key fob that easily fits in the palm of your hand.

INTRODUCTION DEFINATION AND MEANING Inventory is a list of goods and materials, or those goods and materials themselves, held available in stock by a business. Inventory are held in order to manage and hide from the customer the fact that manufacture/supply delay is longer than delivery delay, and also to ease the effect of imperfections in the manufacturing process that lower production efficiencies if production capacity stands idle for lack of materials. The reasons for keeping stock All these stock reasons can apply to any owner or product stage. Buffer stock is held in individual workstations against the possibility that the upstream workstation may be a little delayed in providing the next item for processing. Whilst some processes carry very large buffer stocks, Toyota moved to one (or a few items) and has now moved to eliminate this stock type. Safety stock is held against process or machine failure in the hope/belief that the failure can be repaired before the stock runs out. This type of stock can be eliminated by programmes like Total Productive Maintenance Overproduction is held because the forecast and the actual sales did not match.

    Security Now! Transcript of Episode #761 Page 1 of 21 Transcript of Episode #761 Zoom Go Boom! Description: This week starts off with a bunch of web browser news including Firefox zero-days, Safari's recent scrape, more coronavirus-related feature rollbacks, the status of TLS v1.0 and 1.1, and some interesting developments on the Edge front. We revisit the lingering STIR and SHAKEN telco protocol mess, then look at a new DNS-filtering add-on service from Cloudflare and at the growing influence of an Internet group hoping to tighten up the mess with BGP. After a quick update on my SpinRite project, we take a look at what's been going on with the security of Zoom, the suddenly chosen tool for hosting Internet virtual classrooms and meetings of all kinds.

  • Alpine Start Advising Response to Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement Greg Rafert, Ph.D. February 14, 2020
    Alpine Start Advising Response to Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement Greg Rafert, Ph.D. February 14, 2020 I. Executive Summary 1. This comment provides an economic analysis of Verisign, Inc.’s (Verisign) proposed price increase for .COM registrations. Based on my training as an economist, review of the available evidence, and experience with ICANN and the TLD marketplace, I conclude that there is no economic rationale for Verisign to increase prices for .COM and that increased prices will very likely harm consumers: In the face of heightened competition, which has been provided as one reason for increasing .COM pricing, economic theory and empirical economic studies predict that a firm would typically lower, not increase, prices. To my knowledge, Verisign has not provided a rationale as to why increased competition would require it to increase prices for .COM. Verisign’s gross profit and operating margins have grown significantly over time and are currently high relative to other firms. While not demonstrative as to whether Verisign has market power in the TLD Alpine Start Advising 1 marketplace, they do suggest that changes in Verisign’s costs are not driving Verisign’s interest in increasing prices for .COM. An increase in the price of .COM registrations will harm consumers worldwide, as consumers are unlikely to switch to other, less expensive TLDs due to the high costs associated with switching from a .COM domain. While Verisign may argue that it will use increased revenues from .COM price increases to further improve the security and stability of the internet, thus benefiting consumers, this is unlikely.
