This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase "network security" refers to the measures and processes that are carried out in order to secure computer networks and the resources that are associated with them against unauthorized access, misapplication, modification, or interruption. This may be done by preventing unauthorized users from accessing the network, misusing the network's resources, or interrupting the network's operation. It is of the highest importance to preserve the security of these networks in a world that is getting more and more integrated, where information is routinely traded and transmitted across a variety of different networks. A secure environment that safeguards the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of data and network resources is the primary goal of network security. This purpose requires that a secure environment be provided. This is achieved by ensuring that these assets are not accessible to unauthorized parties. The protection of confidentiality ensures that sensitive information may only be accessed and read by those individuals who have been specifically granted permission to do so. The reliability of the data will not be compromised in any way, and it will maintain its integrity even while being sent and stored. This is what is meant by "data integrity." When it comes to a network, having high availability ensures that all of its services and resources may be accessible by authorized users whenever it is necessary for them to do so. The safeguarding of a computer network calls for a combination of hardware, software, and operational controls to be implemented. These protections protect the network against a wide range of attacks, including those listed below:

Download or read book Innovative Practices in Teaching Information Sciences and Technology written by John M. Carroll and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-27 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: University teaching and learning has never been more innovative than it is now. This has been enabled by a better contemporary understanding of teaching and learning. Instructors now present situated projects and practices to their students, not just foundational principles. Lectures and structured practice are now often replaced by engaging and constructivist learning activities that leverage what students know about, think about and care about. Teaching innovation has also been enabled by online learning in the classroom, beyond the classroom and beyond the campus. Learning online is perhaps not the panacea sometimes asserted but it is a disruptively rich and expanding set of tools and techniques that can facilitate engaging and constructivist learning activities. It is becoming the new normal in university teaching and learning. The opportunity and the need for innovation in teaching and learning are together keenest in information technology itself: Computer and Information Science faculty and students are immersed in innovation. The subject matter of these disciplines changes from one year to the next; courses and curricula are in constant flux. And indeed each wave of disciplinary innovation is assimilated into technology tools and infrastructures for teaching new and emerging concepts and techniques. Innovative Practices in Teaching Information Sciences and Technology: Experience Reports and Reflections describes a set of innovative teaching practices from the faculty of Information Sciences and Technology at Pennsylvania State University. Each chapter is a personal essay describing practices, implemented by one or two faculty that challenge assumptions and push beyond standard practice at the individual faculty and classroom level. These are innovations that instructors elsewhere may find directly accessible and adaptable. Taken as a set, this book is a case study of teaching innovation as a part of faculty culture. Innovation is not optional in information technology; it inheres in both the disciplinary subject matter and in teaching. But it is an option for instructors to collectively embrace innovation as a faculty. The chapters in this book taken together, embody this option and provide a partial model to faculties for reflecting on and refining their own collective culture of teaching innovation.
