...Bug Bounty Information Paper A ‘Bug Bounty’ is a program where private or public entities provide recognition, awards, and compensation in exchange for the responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities, or bugs, in their public or private-facing infrastructures. While conventional penetration testing has a predetermined actor testing a predetermined scope, Bug Bounties generally allow for any actor to attempt to exploit the service without fear of prosecution. If this actor stays within the scope of the Bounty (e.g. not compromising personal data, breaking key infrastructure, etc.), and reports the bug responsibly to the company, without publicly releasing it first, they may receive compensation or awards. Bug Bounties have become increasingly...

...Informational Essay: Bugs What if in the future you were dining in a restaurant and the specialty was an bug ice cream or steak and bug.Bugs are the next big thing in the media right now, bugs are good for you and your health, bugs give you protein and bugs also release less greenhouse gases than cows, pigs, and chickens, also the world throws away more stuff on cows, chickens, and pigs, then we do on bugs, there are also over 1,900 edible bugs in the world. We can address that bugs provide us with the amount of protein that animals do, also we can talk about how bugs release less greenhouse gases, we also can address how bugs might be able to solve obesity and other world problems. Bugs might be able to solve world hunger. “There’s no denying that the population will grow” our population is growing minute by minute that means the world is getting bigger and our food source is getting probably about in 100 years there would probably be no more meat,chicken,or pigs left that means if there’s no more of our main food sources left than we most likely are gonna lack the amount of protein that we need which means less carbon dioxide in the air, this shows that bugs are good for you that doesn’t mean that you have to drop...

...The pill bug was 1.5 centimeters long and had a half-moon body shape. Its body was five to six millimeters in height and had seven overlapping plates which evenly covered its outer-shell from top to bottom. The pill bug had a shiny black shell in which the sun glittered on it and made it more visible. The head was so tiny that only the antennas could be seen which indicated its head was right beneath the antennas, and its legs were attached on the abdomen spreading along its body. The pill bug moved extremely fast and often hid under any objects along its way as if to hide its shiny shell from being distinguishable. It was able to curl up into a ball and protected itself from the outside environment. Location: The pill bug was spotted 1.5 meters away from a pine tree at the Citrus Ranch Park located in the city of Tustin. It was crawling up the soil and headed towards the cement. The weather was chill, and it was cloudy at the time it crawled up from the soil. The sun would shine brightly on the ground if the clouds were blown away by a gust of wind. It was expected to see the pill bugs in this kind of weather because they loved to live anywhere there was moisture and dead plants to eat....

...Have you ever thought of what role lovebugs play in Florida’s environment? Love bugs are known to have an all-black body with an orange thorax. They fill up Florida’s sky with their little black bodies. Floridians and even annual travelers ask themselves “Why are they so annoying? Why are there so many? They are so destructive! How can they possibly help our environment?” As larvae, the waste products they produce help make viable soil for plants, which helps us in obtaining the oxygen. As adults, they help with the reproduction and diversity of plants. Though love bugs are pest toward the human population, they play a crucial role in our environment. Love bugs, also known as Plecia neartica or bibionid flies (Denmark, Mead, Fasulo,...

...In the Isopod behavior lab, pill bugs or roly polys, or scientifically Armadillidiidae, will be examined. A pill bug is a little tiny bug classified as a terrestrial crustacean in the order Isopoda and in a family of woodlice. Armadillidium vulgare is usually what people mean when talking about pill bugs as they are the most commonly seen. Creatures related to Armadillidium vulgare are species of the same family, like A. Eleoniscus or A. Paxodillidium. The family of Armadillidiidae have a special trait compared to other woodlouse families, being that they are able to roll up into a ball, a process called conglobation. Conglobation usually happens in a response to stimuli, as a way to protect themselves from predators and to reduce water loss...

...information a little bit at a time instead of trying to remember all at once. [4] If, I was a juror and I knew about this information then I would definite bring it to light, the fact that we create our own memories to make life more efficient. There are numerous ways that people forgot information without even realizing it. Elizabeth Loftus did studies on manufacturing memories to bring this topic to light because a lot of people were serving time in prison because of these types of memories. She did a study about people visiting Disney World and asks about what type of characters they meet. For example Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Bugs Bunny, Bugs Bunny is not a Disney character, there were a lot of people who remember touching and hugging Bugs Bunny at Disneyland, even thought we all know that this information is incorrect. I did more research on Loftus and it turns out that she herself had memories of finding her mother dead, when...

...Chapter I INTRODUCTION Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis iis an English word that refers to a lung disease that is otherwise known as silicosis. It is the longest word in the English language published in a dictionary, the Oxford English Dictionary. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, it is "an artificial long word said to mean a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine ash and sand dust."[1] Silicosis is a form of occupational lung disease caused by inhalation of crystalline silica dust, and is marked by inflammation and scarring in the form of nodular lesions in the upper lobes of the lungs. It is a type of pneumoconiosis Statement of the problem 1. What is the couse of Pneumoconiosis? 2. How can it be prevented? 3. What are the symptoms? 4. How can affect in our body? 5. What are the treatment? Statement of the Hypothesis HO1: .A pneumoconiosis cause by inhalation of every fine silicate or quartz dust which is found in volcanic ash. HO2: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is fairly easy to prevent. Most countries do not have any volcanoes or any other places where silica dust exposure is likely. In case you live in one of the countries that does, here are few ways how to prevent this disease: Do not go in or near an active or non-dormant volcano. Do not expose yourself to silica dust for long periods of time. If or long periods of time...

...Abstract In this research paper I will be discussing the bug that was discovered and reported in 1994. The Intel P5 chip was found to have a floating point unit bug that made digital divide operation in algorithms flaw after the 4th decimal point. I will also be touching on the contributions of Professor Thomas R. Nicely and the time line on which he brought attention to the bug from the Intel P5. The Pentium FDIV bug The Pentium FDIV bug was first discovered by a professor named Thomas R. Nicely from Lynchburg College in Virginia. He discovered there were a few missing entries in the lookup table by the digital divide operation algorithm. Sadly Intel knew about the bug when they were testing the chip in June of 1994. Intel’s managers decided the error would not affect as many people as it would to issue a recall, and that they should not inform anyone outside the company. Later thet same month Dr. Nicely, a professor of mathematics noticed small differenced in two sets of numbers. Dr. Nicely spent months eliminating possible causes such ad PCI bus errors and compiler artifacts. October 19th after testing on several 486 and Pentium-based computers Dr. Nicely was certain that the error was caused by the Intel P5 processor. On the 24th of October he contacted Intel technical support and the support representative confirmed the error and said that it was not reported before. Then on October 30th after receiving no more information from Intel he sent an email message...

...FDIV Bug La Keith Lee EN1320 COMP 1 The Pentium FDIV Bug * On certain input data, the FPDIC (Floating Point Divide Instructions) on the Pentium processor produce inaccurate results. * The error can occur in any of the three operating precisions, namely single, double, or extended, for the divide instruction. However it has been noted that far fewer failures are found in a single precision than double or extended precisions. * The incidence of the problem is independent of the processor rounding modes. * The occurrence of the problem is highly dependent on the input data. Only certain data will trigger the problem. There is a probability that 1 out of 9 billion randomly fed divide or remainder instructions will produce inaccurate results. * The degree of inaccuracy depends on the input data and upon the instructions involved. * The problem does not occur on the specific use of the divide instruction to compute the reciprocal of the input operand in single precision. The bug affects any instruction that references the lookup table or calls FDIV. Related instructions that are affected by the bug are FDIVP, FDIVR, FDIVRP, FIDIV, FIDIVR, FPREM, and FPREMI. The instructions FPTAN and FPATAN are also susceptible. The instructions FYL2x, FYL2XP, FSIN, FCOS, and FSINCOS, were a suspect but are now considered safe. Intel has adopted a no-question-asked replacement policy for its customers with the Pentium FDIV bug. It has done a statistical research and provided...

...Al Capone Alphonse Capone is the son of Neapolitan immigrants Gabriel and Teresa Capone. They had nine children. He was their forth, born January 17, 1899, in Brooklyn, New York. This is where he attended Public School 7 from age 5 to 14 until an incident with his 6th grade teacher, he gave her a beating and was then beaten and expelled by his principal, never to return. Beatings were a typical form of punishment for public school in this age and young Al was known to challenge authority. Expelled from school and transplanted to a different neighborhood, Capone met notorious criminals like; Johnny Torrio and Lucky Luciano when he joined two street gangs, the Brooklyn Rippers and the Forty Thieves Juniors. Within a few years he was regularly involved in organized crime. Capone worked at a night club called the Harvard Inn for the crime boss Frankie Yale. One night at the Harvard Inn, Capone insulted a young woman which led to fight. The brother of the woman gave Al a beating and a new nickname “Scarface”. This incident also led to Capone’s first arrest “disorderly conduct”. Al met Mary “Mae” Coughlin, a young Irish woman at a dance in 1918. It must have been a tumultuous, whirlwind of a romance because she gave birth to their son Albert “Sonny” Capone on December 4th, 1918 and then they married on December 30th, 1918. Capone was the prime suspect of two murders and the brutal beating of a rival gang member that led to an extended hospital stay. Frankie Yale knew that the...

Some have the mind set of doing some the off the wall and unacceptable things using technology. In this paper I have discussed location and the type of data you will find in in the case of a financial fraud and a child pornography case. Later in the paper discusses the procedures that and investigator might take to collect data from a suspect system. I will also provide a simple tool that can be used to collect all type of data from different location, making the investigator job much easier and help maintain the integrity of the evidence collected to be presented in court. . Forensic Cases There are many location that and investigator search to obtain data using computer forensic tools in a case on financial fraud and child pornography cases. In the case of a financial fraud emails can provide investigators with information not only the text but also the headers. The email headers can provide investigators with the information of who created the email, what software they used and the IP addressed that sent it. The email header also provide a date and time was sent. Credit card data shows the activity of charges. It show the...

...Looney Tunes Dash is the most recent, taking fantastic Looney Tunes characters and setting them into natural parts where they'll have to bounce over snags, gather focuses, and continue running until you foul up. At last, its fundamentally the same sort of game we've played many times in the recent past, which is a disgrace truly, given the fabulous source material. Instead of essentially being relied upon to continue playing to the extent that this would be possible without a genuine objective as a top priority, at any rate Looney Tunes Dash does offer a few objectives for you to finish every time you play. One moment you may be gathering a set number of carrots, or the following you may be encouraged to go for a particular score. There...

...This paper will discuss four common types of distributed computer system failures which are Crash failures also known as operating system failures, Hardware Failures, Omission Failures and Byzantine Failures. Included in the discussion are failures which can also occur in a centralized computer system, and how to isolate and repair two types of failures. Crash failures are normally associated with a server fault in a typical distributed system. Inherently crash failures are interrupt operations of the server and can halt operation for a considerable time (Projects Helper, 2012).Operating system failures are the best examples for this scenario. Operating System or software failures come in many more varieties than hardware failures. Software bugs in distributed systems can be difficult to replicate and, consequently, repair and or debug. Corresponding fault tolerant systems are developed and employed with respect to these affects. An operating system or software failure can also occur in a centralized system such as a data base this is why it is highly recommended to back up a data base using stable mass storage media (Projects Helper, 2012). We have an extensive data base on our server at my work place. The storage back-up is run daily. I cannot imagine the man-hours it would take to re-input even a month’s worth of production data if it were lost due to a failure the system could not recover from. Hardware failures can occur in both distributed and centralized systems. Hardware...

...Bugs Bunny has and continues to be a standing favorite all, his popularity spans generations crossing over form one millennia to the next, he is iconically global and can be viewed in many languages in thousands of homes. True to form the creation of this character has spawned within our culture a love for such a character that he has become not only a welcomed spokes person but an undying legend whose roots can possibly be traced back hundreds of years he is everybody’s hero we laugh and cheer when he is victorious and are shocked and somewhat upset when he “loses.” Warner Bros., released his first cartoon over sixty years ago. Since “There have been over 150 Bugs Bunny cartoons, and all but about twelve are still shown rather frequently on television today. Bugs has had a more diverse and accomplished career than many Hollywood actors ever have, and some of the zaniest and funniest performances ever in film history. This did not happen overnight, by any means. Bugs Bunny's cartoons were directed over the years by such creative geniuses as Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, Bob Clampett, Robert McKimson, Frank Tashlin, and others, all of whom left their mark in film history with these animated films, and Bugs was only one of the dozens of classic creations these men worked with and created. Also not to be forgotten are the creators of the Warner cartoon soundtrack, Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs) and musicians Carl Stalling, Milt Franklyn and William Lava” (Hunter). ...
