I’m certain that your role as a System Administrator is more secure than you give it credit for. We all take advantage of abstract, backdoor infrastructure in one way or another. To that end, the internet is a wonderful place to indulge in action research. Regardless of the time and place, there will always be a means of communication, and a safeguard to uphold it. With these increasingly consistent backdrops, system administration is a great vantage point. You can observe people as they inhabit cyberspace, and you have an obvious leg-up in understanding the systemic problems of such an environment. Hacking has a poetic synchronization to it quite frankly. We no longer need to worry endlessly about the implications of how effective the Polio vaccine is; we are all a little more equalized through the internet.
Excellent presentation! I like that you tied your topics back to your research paper. Your example in question 9 was interesting as I am writing a paper discussing the idea of expanding our cybersecurity funding for another class. The last few scenarios you brought up regarding worms and high-level hacking are the types of things that I will be discussing as to why I believe we need more and better cybersecurity. With so much of our lives relying on cloud storage and datacenters, asking questions such as “what happens if this were to go down for any number of reasons?” are the types of research that I would hope network architects are looking at, but as you kind of talked about with question 10, one of my favorite phrases “you don’t know what you don’t know.” If something is unknown, or overlooked, with these datacenters, there could be a lot of awful consequences.
Great Presentation! I thought you explained everything well that was in the book. The knowing yourself really intrigued me. I think this is very important when doing any type of research. I do think we know to put aside our basis and take what we know to improve situations.
Great job on the presentation! I thought you did a good job of explaining everything in the book. Knowing oneself piqued my interest. This, I believe, is critical when conducting any form of research. I believe we understand how to put our beliefs aside and use what we know to improve conditions.
