Understanding Cyber Threats and Security Measures

1. Malware: Any malicious program or code that is harmful to systems.

2. Trojan Horse: A Trojan horse is a program that appears harmless but is, in fact, malicious. Unexpected changes to computer settings and unusual activity, even when the computer should be idle, are strong indications that a Trojan is residing on a computer. It is not able to replicate itself.

3. Worm: A computer worm is a standalone malware computer program that replicates itself to spread to other computers. Often, it uses a computer network to spread itself, relying on security failures on the target computer to access it. Worms almost always cause at least some harm to the network.

4. Spam: Spam refers to unsolicited, unwanted,... Continue reading "Understanding Cyber Threats: Malware, Trojans, and Security" »

EOLIC ENERGY

1. How It Is Obtained and Its Characteristics

• It is obtained from the wind's kinetic energy.
• The sun heats the Earth's air unevenly. The temperature differences in different locations cause air masses to move.

Characteristics of Wind:

• Speed: Higher wind speed results in greater power generation.
• Permanent Wind Zones: Areas with consistent wind patterns are ideal for wind energy production.
• Elevation: Wind speeds are typically higher at higher elevations.
• Power Density: Measured in watts per square meter (W/m²).

2. Parts of a Wind Power Plant

• Propeller (Blades):
  • Number of blades varies depending on the motor (typically one to six).
  • Made from lightweight materials like carbon fiber.
  • Spin the shaft, which drives the generator.
  • Types: Horizontal-
