Business Quiz: Security Awareness Training

A strong password consists of at least six characters (and the more characters, the stronger the password) that are a combination of letters, numbers and symbols (@, #, $, %, etc.) if allowed. Passwords are typically case-sensitive, so a strong password contains letters in both uppercase and lowercase. Strong passwords also do not contain words that can be found in a dictionary or parts of the user’s own name.

The most prevalent type of social engineering attack is conducted by phone. A hacker will call up and imitate someone in a position of authority or relevance and gradually pull information out of the User or Company.

In the field of computer security, phishing is the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Communications purporting to be from popular social web sites, auction sites, online payment processors or IT administrators are commonly used to lure the unsuspecting public. Phishing is typically carried out by e-mail or instant messaging,[1] and it often directs users to enter details at a fake website whose look and feel are almost identical to the legitimate one.

A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network.

here are several types of firewall techniques:
# Packet filter: Looks at each packet entering or leaving the network and accepts or rejects it based on user-defined rules. Packet filtering is fairly effective and transparent to users, but it is difficult to configure. In addition, it is susceptible to IP spoofing.
# Application gateway: Applies security mechanisms to specific applications, such as FTP and Telnet servers. This is very effective, but can impose a performance degradation.
# Circuit-level gateway: Applies security mechanisms when a TCP or UDP connection is established. Once the connection has been made, packets can flow between the hosts without further checking.
# Proxy server: Intercepts all messages entering and leaving the network. The proxy server effectively hides the true network addresses.

If the door is also regularly used for egress, either another card reader or request to exit device must be installed on the interior side, so that people exiting the door will not generate an alarm on the access control system.

Optical zoom is the traditional method of physically manipulating the distance between 2 lenses to create a different camera view. Digital zooming is a technique in which an electronic processor literally magnifies size of the pixels imaged by an optical lens. There are different techniques, but "grainy" appearance is typically associated with digital zoom, especially when the camera. Of cameras that have the ability to zoom (aka varifocal lens cameras), some are optical, some are digital- and some are both, which means that the mechanical lens movement and internal digital magnification are both taking place (22x optical and 10x digital = total 220x zoom capability). It should be noted that not all digital zooming technology is the same. We've seen all ranges from extremely poor to excellent and are quite pleased with the equipment we carry.

First, You will need lan cards on both of the computers. Connect lan cards of both the computers with a cross cable(One side 568A Another side 568B).
Assign private IP address of same class to both computers (e.g. 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2). Now both computers can share files, network, etc..

The frames per second (fps) relates to how many pictures the DVR will record in a second. Real time recording is about 30 fps on each camera. To calculate the fps per camera take the total fps in the system and divide it by the number of video inputs. For example, a 60 fps digital video recorder with 4 video inputs would result in about 15 fps per camera. The technology has finally gotten to the point now where real time recording is affordable. If you are recording cash registers or something similar then you should definitely invest in real time recording.

You can view the camera video over the internet using a modem which is slow but can display 1 or 2 frames every 5 seconds. Better is a DSL or cable modem connection which can generally display 1 frame per second. When viewing remotely, the refresh rate is restricted by the communications medium (your internet connection speed). When viewing or playing back locally, the display is dependent of the unit's frame rate (fps). You will need a static ip address available to assign to the DVR (more about this in your documentation).

The correct answers are "ping ? (ping www.google.com)", "ipconfig /all", and "ipconfig".

The "ping ? (ping www.google.com)" command is used to check the IP address by sending a request to the specified website (www.google.com) and receiving a response that includes the IP address.

The "ipconfig /all" command displays detailed information about all network interfaces on the Windows computer, including the IP address.

The "ipconfig" command alone also displays the IP address, along with other network configuration information, but it may not provide as much detail as the "/all" option.

Why Does Door Strike Release from the Inside?
Proximity readers can have detection fields that extend both in front of and behind the reader. If a person has his or her proximity credential in a pocket or purse, the reader may inadvertently read the credential when it nears the door. Installing a metal plate behind the reader will reduce or eliminate this problem.

Door releases, such as strikes and magnetic locks, typically are powered by separate power supplies

The fastest growing technology for access control applications, proximity readers continuously transmit a low-level fixed radio frequency (RF) signal that provides energy to the card. When the card is held at a certain distance from the reader, the RF signal is absorbed by a small coil inside the card that powers up the card’s microchip, which contains a unique identification code. Once powered, the card transmits the code to the reader. The whole process is completed in microseconds. The big advantage of proximity over other technologies lies in its simplicity. There are no moving parts, no mechanical wear, no slots, and no read heads to maintain
