Learning Log (INFOSEC)

The focus of the week 7 and 8 is about ethics and prevention. Ethics is about the expected behavior of their members from high-level standpoint. In companies, employees are expected to be at their best behavior and be professional at all times. Not only that but also the other things that the company would want them to know and act. As for the ethics of hacking back, it is an active cyber defense. It is defensive but offensive in nature. One example of this is if you were hacked, you will hack back to that person. As for prevention, a formula as been made for protection. Protection = Prevention + (Detection + Response) The formula is also known for the Operation Model of Computer Security since all of the technique and technology fall on either of the variables of the equation. 

Week 5 and 6 Some part of the week, Sir Justin checked our research paper. As he checked it, we also kept on revising and revising the paper to make it more feasible and understandable. Some part of it is discussion. We discussed the different policies and laws that would fit to different crimes. We also learned the definition of each laws and policies to better understand on what crimes it would fit. Lastly, we defended our research paper last July 15. We did our best and I guess Sir Justin is a bit impressed of it.
