Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2000 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: 1,7 (A-), UNITEC New Zealand (Information Systems), course: Course Internet and Intranet Management, 18 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This report deals with how one can crack a company’s IT system. It is written from an attacker’s point of view who wants to penetrate the e-Fence company with an appropriate method. Therefore the weak points of the company are highlighted to determine in what areas the organization is vulnerable and which approach to chose. The technical and human factors in terms of weaknesses are described whereas the conclusion is drawn that there are heaps of security lacks in both areas. The technical flaws that are not removable in some cases as well as the incompetence of staff and managers pose a major threat to the entire company since the most important asset, the information, is not enough protected. As a second step the methods how to attack a company are described. The alternatives of using virus, worm and trojan horse program are emphasized and how they can enter the computer system of the organization. In most cases it is the floppy disk that carries the viral code to the nodes. But email attachments can often contain malicious code as well that can cause damage within the corporate network. In the following section the cracker’s impact on the organization is revealed. It is described how the code is brought into the company and how it is activated. Moreover it is figured out that it takes an activator, who must trigger the malicious application. The results are devastating. From erasing the local hard drive to recoding the file allocation tables those programs have the power to corrupt or even delete data on the computer. As one computer spreads the virus via the network on other computers the whole network will be infected soon. Much more damage can cause trojan horse applications. They gain the control over the victim’s computer and can log all the actions taken by the user. For instance typed passwords can be identified and sent back to the cracker. They are also capable to read, write or even delete data on the computer and can control the entire hardware of the system. As a counter measure it takes both the staff and the technical safety measures to be able to stop a cracker from doing his job. With the awareness and knowledge about security the staff is able to recognize security flaws and suspicious activities. Anti-virus scanners, firewalls, user restrictions might help to avoid being cracked by someone else.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although leadership theories have evolved to reflect changing social contexts, many remain silent on issues of equity, diversity, and social justice. Diversity and Leadership, by Jean Lau Chin and Joseph E. Trimble, offers a new paradigm for examining leadership by bringing together two domains—research on leadership and research on diversity—to challenge existing notions of leadership and move toward a diverse and global view of society and its institutions. This compelling book delivers an approach to leadership that is inclusive, promotes access for diverse leaders, and addresses barriers that narrowly confine our perceptions and expectations of leaders. Redefining leadership as global and diverse, the authors impart new understanding of who our leaders are, the process of communication, exchange between leaders and their members, criteria for selecting, training, and evaluating leaders in the 21st century, and the organizational and societal contexts in which leadership is exercised.

Book excerpt: Redefining the way we view business success, Pamela Laird demolishes the popular American self-made story as she exposes the social dynamics that navigate some people toward opportunity and steer others away. Who gets invited into the networks of business opportunity? What does an unacceptable candidate lack? The answer is social capital--all those social assets that attract respect, generate confidence, evoke affection, and invite loyalty. In retelling success stories from Benjamin Franklin to Andrew Carnegie to Bill Gates, Laird goes beyond personality, upbringing, and social skills to reveal the critical common key--access to circles that control and distribute opportunity and information. She explains how civil rights activism and feminism in the 1960s and 1970s helped demonstrate that personnel practices violated principles of equal opportunity. She evaluates what social privilege actually contributes to business success, and analyzes the balance between individual characteristics--effort, innovation, talent--and social factors such as race, gender, class, and connections. In contrasting how Americans have prospered--or not--with how we have talked about prospering, Laird offers rich insights into how business really operates and where its workings fit within American culture. From new perspectives on entrepreneurial achievement to the role of affirmative action and the operation of modern corporate personnel systems, Pull shows that business is a profoundly social process, and that no one can succeed alone.
