  the bits and bytes of computer networking: Scene of the Cybercrime Debra Littlejohn Shinder, Michael Cross, 2008-07-21 When it comes to computer crimes, the criminals got a big head start. But the law enforcement and IT security communities are now working diligently to develop the knowledge, skills, and tools to successfully investigate and prosecute Cybercrime cases. When the first edition of Scene of the Cybercrime published in 2002, it was one of the first books that educated IT security professionals and law enforcement how to fight Cybercrime. Over the past 5 years a great deal has changed in how computer crimes are perpetrated and subsequently investigated. Also, the IT security and law enforcement communities have dramatically improved their ability to deal with Cybercrime, largely as a result of increased spending and training. According to the 2006 Computer Security Institute's and FBI's joint Cybercrime report: 52% of companies reported unauthorized use of computer systems in the prior 12 months. Each of these incidents is a Cybecrime requiring a certain level of investigation and remediation. And in many cases, an investigation is mandates by federal compliance regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, or the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard. Scene of the Cybercrime, Second Edition is a completely revised and updated book which covers all of the technological, legal, and regulatory changes, which have occurred since the first edition. The book is written for dual audience; IT security professionals and members of law enforcement. It gives the technical experts a little peek into the law enforcement world, a highly structured environment where the letter of the law is paramount and procedures must be followed closely lest an investigation be contaminated and all the evidence collected rendered useless. It also provides law enforcement officers with an idea of some of the technical aspects of how cyber crimes are committed, and how technology can be used to track down and build a case against the criminals who commit them. Scene of the Cybercrime, Second Editions provides a roadmap that those on both sides of the table can use to navigate the legal and technical landscape to understand, prevent, detect, and successfully prosecute the criminal behavior that is as much a threat to the online community as traditional crime is to the neighborhoods in which we live. Also included is an all new chapter on Worldwide Forensics Acts and Laws. - Companion Web site provides custom tools and scripts, which readers can download for conducting digital, forensic investigations - Special chapters outline how Cybercrime investigations must be reported and investigated by corporate IT staff to meet federal mandates from Sarbanes Oxley, and the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard - Details forensic investigative techniques for the most common operating systems (Windows, Linux and UNIX) as well as cutting edge devices including iPods, Blackberries, and cell phones

  the bits and bytes of computer networking: Shaping the Network Society Douglas Schuler, Peter Day, 2003-01-01 How computer professionals and communities can work together to shape sociotechnical systems that will meet society's challenges. Information and computer technologies are used every day by real people with real needs. The authors contributing to Shaping the Network Society describe how technology can be used effectively by communities, activists, and citizens to meet society's challenges. In their vision, computer professionals are concerned less with bits, bytes, and algorithms and more with productive partnerships that engage both researchers and community activists. These collaborations are producing important sociotechnical work that will affect the future of the network society. Traditionally, academic research on real-world users of technology has been neglected or even discouraged. The authors contributing to this book are working to fill this gap; their theoretical and practical discussions illustrate a new orientation—research that works with people in their natural social environments, uses common language rather than rarefied academic discourse, and takes a pragmatic perspective. The topics they consider are key to democratization and social change. They include human rights in the global billboard society; public computing in Toledo, Ohio; public digital culture in Amsterdam; civil networking in the former Yugoslavia; information technology and the international public sphere; historical archaeologies of community networks; technobiographical reflections on the future; libraries as information commons; and globalization and media democracy, as illustrated by Indymedia, a global collective of independent media organizations.

Every day, billions of photographs, news stories, songs, X-rays, TV shows, phone calls, and emails are being scattered around the world as sequences of zeroes and ones: bits. We can’t escape this explosion of digital information and few of us want to–the benefits are too seductive. The technology has enabled unprecedented innovation, collaboration, entertainment, and democratic participation. But the same engineering marvels are shattering centuries-old assumptions about privacy, identity, free expression, and personal control as more and more details of our lives are captured as digital data. Can you control who sees all that personal information about you? Can email be truly confidential, when nothing seems to be private? Shouldn’t the Internet be censored the way radio and TV are? Is it really a federal crime to download music? When you use Google or Yahoo! to search for something, how do they decide which sites to show you? Do you still have free speech in the digital world? Do you have a voice in shaping government or corporate policies about any of this? Blown to Bits offers provocative answers to these questions and tells intriguing real-life stories. This book is a wake-up call to the human consequences of the digital explosion.

  the bits and bytes of computer networking: Management Science Featuring Micro-Macro Economics and Management of Information Technology W.Y. Dornyo, 2020-10-09 This book is one of a series of various doctoral research project papers and has been further refined and converted into a book. The book has been deemed one of further versions of management science that are to come. These further versions focus more on information technology and its effects as agile tools for management, including software engineering, algorithms and data structures, computer architecture and electronics, systems science, artificial intelligence and robotics, quantum science, statistics, and web-internet and multimedia design and building. Managers are usually multifaceted with multiple disciplines even though they have one or two areas as majors, specialties, or experience. It is in the light of this that Management Science Featuring Micro-Macro Economics and Management of Information Technology was designed in this context to contain economics with IT as a course of study. In the future, further versions will be pure courses instead of combinations. The world has changed gear for the better due to the advanced mysteries of information technology innovations so that we could even conduct scientific laboratory experiments, medical diagnoses, and rule of law adjudications online. That means we could not forget information technology as one major tool in hand that should be a pivot on and around which all other areas in management should dwell and revolve, and this was one of the sole reasons of this book. It is therefore worthy of note for readers aspiring as systems analysts, managers, and professionals to accustom themselves to the subject areas in the book to instill understanding of numerous important terms and points in economics and IT. This will help to build further courage and understanding toward advancement in these fields. All topics indicated in the table of contents have been made reader friendly and treated to focus easy understanding. We highly acknowledge all the intellectual materials used.
