From the comfort of your own home (or even your own bed), you can do a little bit of “comparison shopping,” so to speak, where you get a chance to look at profiles of other people who, like you, just want to meet someone ...

The internet is an integral part of modern communication. Yet it is also the source of many security issues of private information because of its widespread nature and availability. These security issues are associated partly to the inherent characteristics of the internet and to human error (Holden, 2003). The advancement of technology has allowed services and items to be delivered through the internet by collecting information. However, such information comes with a price. In exchange of convenience, consumers become targets to cybercrimes because of the information they provide (i.e. bank account information, address, and personal identity) (Sicari, 2013).

Research Paper Draft: The Hospitality Law and Privacy

Introduction
Privacy, including information privacy, has become one of the great concerns of our modern information society. Each day, without much difficulty, one can find a news story or report concerning some question of privacy. The main focus of these questions, however, have centered around the age-old debate between what is the best balance between security and privacy. That is to say, very little public, media or government attention has focused on other equally important areas of privacy including privacy in the private sector, such as in the hospitality industry. Nowadays, the hospitality industry increasingly has access mountains of ...

It was not long after the social websites like facebook and Instagram were introduced that people are starting posting their personal information and pictures quite freely for their friends and acquaintances to see.

IEEE 802.1X Standard and EAP Authentication Schemes

Abstract
Authentication risks are common reasons why network users are left frustrated when attackers exploit vulnerabilities. With increasing number of network attackers, there is a necessity for reliance on authentication technologies that offer the greatest efficiency in terms of denying access to unauthorized users. IEEE 802.1X and Extensible Authentication Protocol play a major part in mitigating authentication risks including providing a framework for handling issues such as changing of password by attackers, strong credentials in unprotected networks and the risk of re-using a single password for a longer-than-safe duration.
