All of our technology has come a very long way over the years. From the very first phone or television that was invented, it is unbelievable how these same devices look and function in today’s world.

Throughout the years most country's governments have established some sort of secret police. No matter what the government called it, whether it is the United States' Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) or her Majesty's secret service (MI6), whatever name the government used, the international term of "secret police" could always be applied. Many agencies of secret police have had their success and failures, some more than others. The KGB, which in English means "the Committee of Public Safety," has had their share of both successes and failures. Most secret police agencies have been used primarily to obtain information from other countries. This was also a primary goal for the KGB, but one of their other goals, which was just as important, was to keep unwanted outside information from the Russian people. This was only one out of many the KGB's objectives. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to prove that the actions of the KGB were, all in all, a success.…
The Homeland Security Bill enacted in 2003 was established in results of the devastation caused by the attacks on the home front in September 11, 2001. After this tragic event, President George W. Bush wanted to establish a collaborative team which included 22 existing agencies that work as a preventive force to help with the minimization of terrorist attacks and activities. This team would be used to respond to all domestic emergency situations which include, but are not limited to terrorist occurrences, natural disasters, and any other major crisis event. There were four divisions produced and they are The Border and Transportation Security, Emergency Preparedness and Response, Science and Technology in Support of Homeland Security, and Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection. This collaborative team that included many separate government agencies and entities as well as the four newly established branches formed The Department of Homeland Security.…

Hackers are people who hack into other people’s computers or electronic devices so they can take control over their things. A book titled Net Crimes and Misdemeanors written by J. A. Hitchcock takes us through many different aspects of how people take and control our things. She explains to us “When you’re connected to the internet, your computer is part of a worldwide network and anyone can try to connect to your system. The best way to describe it is by contrasting it to your television, a one-way communication mechanism” (Hitchcock 237). Hackers can reach any personal information located on an individual’s computer. Any accounts or credit card numbers in the system, they can get ahold of. We use many internet softwares today that can help prevent hackers, but not all the time. Hackers are extremely knowledgeable with computers and can find their way in. Hitchcock also gives us a little background information on when many viruses and softwares were introduced. She states, “…there was a good enough market for a security suite that included a personal firewall and antivirus capability. They were right. When NIS was introduced in December 1999, the U.S. retail market for internet security software grew more than 140 percent” (Hitchcock 236). Throughout the years, many software updates came out to help protect people and their information. The problem is that the more…

We can use the internet for news, map, email, video chat, websites, music, blogs, research, online banking, business transaction, social engineering, sharing photos etc. We can do all these by sitting in front of PC which is connected to the internet. These are the many advantages we can take from internet but there are some disadvantages too. There are Trojan horses, worms, viruses, hackers etc. They are made to disrupt the computer network or personal computer. They can be biggest threats for our computer anytime while using the internet therefore keeping away from those malicious attacks we need to have best level of protection for our PC and home network. They can steal our bank account information, Social Security number without our knowledge.
