The right to privacy should not even be a question everyone should have the right to privacy to a certain extent. The right to privacy is a recent creation of little consequence other than cultural custom. The right to privacy is a big part if not the biggest part of everyone’s freedom because if anyone can come into anyone’s house at any given time or listen to all their calls and read all their text people will feel unsafe and without any freedom; It will feel like a prions where everything is being monitor. Everyone likes their privacy even if they do not have anything to hide just knowing that whatever they do or where ever they go will be only known to them and those they chose to share it with making them feel in control of their life...

...White American Privileges and Social Class Aieleen Lanot University of Hawaii – West Oahu White American Privileges and Social Class Privilege is a concept of sociology used to implicate that there are certain groups of individuals that have an advantage over others. “Social liberties use the term to mean benefits according to white people under economic, political, and social circumstance. (Anyon 17)” I agree with his stance because there is no extension of such privileges to individuals of other races such as Blacks, Hispanics or Asians. The use of this term is mainly in the social inequality context primarily in relation to social class, sexual orientation, race, age, and gender. Several recorded privileged elements show the advantageous that White America has in getting access to better housing, jobs, and education. This paper will explore the issue of White American privileges and how social class status is based on color of your skin and the financial means of your family. In the article by Peggy McIntosh, she defines, “White privileges as a package of unearth assets, invisible in nature and are obvious” (McIntosh 10). There is a comparison of white privilege to an undetectable light knapsack of assurance, maps, tools, guidance, visa, codebooks, clothes, passbooks, emergency gear, blank checks, etc. I concur with Peggy McIntosh analysis since there are several functions brought about by white privileges. These functions include provisions of “perks”...

...White privilege otherwise known as white skin privilege is a term for societal privileges that benefit white people in western countries beyond what is commonly experienced by the non-white people under the same social, political, or economic circumstances. These privileges are unearned and are distributed based on values of the dominant group, which in the west is white people. According to McIntosh and Lee, whites in a society considered culturally a part of the Western World enjoy advantages that non-whites do not experience. This leads to the controversy over whether or not White people should be able to enjoy these privileges. The term denotes both obvious and less obvious passive advantages that white persons may not recognize they have, which distinguishes it from overt bias or prejudice. These include cultural affirmations of one's own worth; presumed greater social status; and freedom to move, buy, work, play, and speak freely. The effects can be seen in professional, educational, and personal contexts. The concept of white privilege also implies the right to assume the universality of one's own experiences, marking others as different or exceptional while perceiving oneself as normal. Some critics argue that the term uses the concept of "whiteness" as a proxy for class or other social privilege or as a distraction from deeper underlying problems of inequality. Others argue that it is not that whiteness is a proxy but that many other social...

...Social Construction of Whiteness The concept of whiteness, or white privilege, for centuries has been ignored as a potential area of study because it has been widely accepted as the societal norm. Many whites have benefited socially, economically and politically without understanding that most of the privileges they have historically received are solely due to their race and/or gender. The purpose of this review is to analyze the social construction of whiteness from a theoretical perspective, whites understanding themselves and their social status, in addition to the evolution of whiteness. Many studies have been undertaken on the social construction of whiteness. These studies shed a lot of light on the different perceptions on whiteness, gaps in research, areas of highest research interest, strengths and weaknesses of the various methodologies, and direction for future studies. In the study done by Hartmann, Gerteis, and Croll, the focus was on the theoretical aspects of whiteness studies. The findings led the researchers to estimate that in the United States, 15% of the population exhibit what may be called ‘categorical whiteness’ (404). The study by Hartmann, et.al, was carried out using data obtained during a recent national survey, which helped provide an empirical assessment of the theoretical underpinnings of whiteness studies (Hartmann, et.al 404). Three propositions regarding the awareness and conception of whites about their own racial status were analyzed. The...

...“White Privilege: American Reality“ America is the land of the free and the land of opportunity. All men are created equal and can achieve the “American Dream”. These are the kinds of phrases one hears throughout life. Unfortunately, these words are misleading because not everyone has the same opportunity. Court documents from the Dred Scott decision state: “… people of African-American descent are a subordinate and inferior class that, whether slave or free, remains subject to the authority of the dominant and superior white race.” (Day & Schiele, 2013) The concept that we live in a land where all people are equal and success is achieved through hard work alone is nothing more than a myth. White Privilege provides a distinct advantage to white Americans over all non-whites simply by virtue of birth. White Privilege is like gravity, everyone feels the effects but you don’t see it. According to Eduardo Bonilla-Silva most whites believe that racism is less relevant in today’s society. Focus is placed on cultural differences as the reason why some people achieve more success than others. A closer look reveals that this idea still supports the status quo of White Privilege (Bonilla-Silva, 2001). White Privilege is so ingrained in American society that it is virtually invisible (O'Malley Halley, Eshleman, & Vjaya, 2011). The dominant American social values (Day & Schiele, 2013) while separate are still to some extent an extension of White Privilege. White privilege is...

...Case Study 1: Advanced Persistent Threats Keyth Lee Strayer University Online CIS 502 Dr. Emmanuel Nyeanchi January 22, 2014 Abstract This paper analyzes the 2011 APT Summit findings and the 2012 RSA Security Brief. It summarizes the findings of both of the aforementioned documents, examines several popular cyber attack methodologies, and describes various ways to respond to these attacks. It is interesting that both documents allude to the fact that persistence on the part of humans to “wreak havoc” is the root of most security threats. Additionally, both documents unambiguously assert that the most effective way to combat unwanted activity on networks is to share any data regarding network attacks and/or attempts to hack a system. Apparently, organizations are averse to such collaboration for fear of divulging unrelated, sensitive information or because of legal concerns. Not to mention that organizations are generally unenthusiastic about publicizing a network breech. Advanced Persistent Threats If you have ever had a pest infestation in the attic of your home, you will find the concept of “advanced persistent threats” easy to understand. Can you remember how the whole thing started with an intermittent “scratching” noise? Well, that was a persistent pest trying to gain access to your attic. Can you remember how the “scratching noise” gradually morphed into multiple “scratching noises”? Well, that was probably the pest inviting all of his friends after having...

...Rachel Luo M/W 9:30am-10:45am 9/29/2011 In Spite of Women – Esquire Magazine and the construction of Male Consumer Rhetorical Analysis One During early thirties and forties which was right after the depression, government and corporate felt the necessity to revive the market. At that time, people thought women were the ones with dominating consumption powers. As Kenon Breazeale quoted in his article, “Women are indeed the shoppers of the world.” (Breazeale, 231). However, some people such as those in journalism fraternity regarded women’s buying power as “gullible vulnerability to consumerism’s trashy faddishness” (Breazeale, 232). Those people spread wide hostility toward women’s taste and argued that men should be the ones with dominating consumption powers. In this article, Breazeale’s purpose is to make people better understand how some people tried to court man as the main audience in the marketplace under a phenomenon which women were regarded with the major consumption powers. To better achieve his purpose, Breazeale specifically focused on a male targeted magazine Esquire to analyze how it was constructed to attract male audiences. Breazeale argued that Esquire was the first comprehensive magazine which attempted to manipulate and reconceptualize its audiences and targeted men as consumers. He first discussed how Esquire manipulated text to get rid of femininity factors associated in the market which it planned to open for male readers, by using “lifestyle” sector...

These races include Pardos, Mulatos and Morenos as well as the whites. In his analysis, Ben comes up with a conclusion that the different races led to discrimination.

...1. Conduct a PESTEL analysis of China 1.1 Political Analysis China is well-known as one of only five communist nations left in the world, which determined its socialistic ideology and government are different from most countries all over the world. As claimed, china is an investment-welcomed nation since joined WTO in 2001. Leaders of China are also trying to build an open and comfortable environment to foreign investment. The influx of Foreign Direct Investment in China is increasing steady from 2007 and China has been the second largest nation of accepting FDI. (see Exhibit below) Wine has always been seen as a luxurious good in domestic market, so wine importation got a strict duty policy as duty of 14%, add-value tax of 17% and consumption tax of 10%. However, as more and more competition in international trade market, New Zealand has got zero-duty privilege in wine importation industry from China government, followed by Chile and Australia, who will get zero-duty privilege in 2015 and 2019 respectively. Although Chinese politics is stable relatively, there still are some issues like crime and corruption. In 2013, Xi Jinping took power from Hu Jingtao as present president of China and paid more attention to those issues in period of social transition. 1.2 Economic Analysis China’s economy had seen a rapid growth in these years, which was benefit from decreasing intervention and increasing market oriented.

...Advanced Persistent Threats Against RSA Tokens Advance persistent threat has become one of the most dangerous and damaging threat to hit the security arena. APTs are highly adaptable and are usually customized for each attack targeting vulnerabilities, system flaws and even humans with social engineering, spoofing, whaling and spear phishing. APTs are usually an attack against governments, military, political targets, private sector organizations and corporations [ (Curry, et al., 2011) ]. Being able to defend your network and detecting intrusions has become vital. Vulnerabilities APT attacks often use subversive methods to prevent detection. APT attacks are carried out over a long period of time and are planned in advance. Attackers spend a long time planning the attack be it social engineering or searching for access through the supply chain [ (Curry, et al., 2011) ]. Once an attacker gains access to his target network they can go undetected while they snoop around searching for the intended target. Hackers could be after an organization’s top secret information. With social engineering an easy target attackers often gain access through an employee’s account and piggyback their privileges and resources [ (Curry, et al., 2011) ]. Doing this allows the attacker time to search the network and plan an attack method of the target. Attack methods What attack methods were successful and why. The attackers often...
