Essays on Anomaly

Abstract

This essay is focused on reproductive diseases, which are considered to be conditions affecting both male and female individuals. Congenital anomaly, to be specific, is a kidney disease which entails absence, hypoplasia or the presence of fluid or semisolid-filled sacs, known as cysts. Cysts can lead to urinary obstructive symptoms through local pressure. Severe penis anomalies are rare and are normally related to urinary or various other systematic defects. Even though there are no specific cases reported in the State of Florida, various reports have been filed in United States, Canada, among Asian Americans and Native Americans, in Russia ...

Abstract

One of the alarming issues regarding public health and agriculture is the increasing trend for practicing factory farming. It is a strategy of food companies to increase their profit by reducing the costs of manufacturing animal products. Factory farming commonly involves unsanitary, inappropriate and unethical methods of raising farm animals. Large populations of farm animals are raised in a small confinement. The main problem associated to factory farming is the large risk of food contamination. The extreme use of growth hormones and antibiotics in factory farming could also increase the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria which could endanger ...

Information Security Threats

Introduction Information is one of the most important assets for many organizations, as it acts as a differentiator and provides a competitive advantage. Loss of information such as patent information, proprietary processes, or trade secrets could prove to be very detrimental to a business. While there are many threats to the information security, this report focuses on three of them, which are 1) Denial of service, 2) Privilege escalation, and 3) Backdoor. This report provides measures that address, block, or removes these threats. Information about tools, products, or services that mitigate these threats is provided in the report as ...

Intrusion Detection Systems

Different techniques abound for monitoring computer networks especially within the context of providing security for the network. Intrusion detection is one of such techniques used for security management of computers by analyzing and gathering information from the different areas of a computer network with the aim of identifying possible breaches in the security of the network (Allen et al., 2000). A system put in place to implement any of these techniques is referred to as an intrusion detection system. For the computer network of an organization, the source of breaches to the network can be from within the organization ...

We live in a world where there is good and evil. Since time immemorial, stories told by humans have always had heroes and villains. Human culture has always been rife with tales of heroism, both real and fictional, wherein awe-inspiring individuals faced immense adversity only to overcome it and accomplish good in the end. In the last century, these stories have taken a new turn in introducing fictional characters that are superhuman. The heroes in such storylines who’re more commonly referred to as superheroes are capable of feats that, by any standard, far exceed human capabilities. It is ...

Software testing is defined as the process of executing software to determine its functionality. The goal is to demonstrate to the developers as well as the users that the software meets the technical and business requirements (Homè̀s, 2012). Standards on the other hands are documents outlining guidelines, specifications, characteristics, or requirements to ensure that products are consistent and meet their purpose. There are national and international standards that guide the development and testing processes for software. In Australia, the AS/NZS ISO/IEC 25062:2006 is a standard that provides User Interface (UI) designers or software usability professionals procedures for testing ...

Question #8

Angular momentum refers to the resistance of a rotating body to change its spin rate or direction of spin. Angular momentum can be determined by the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity, or by the cross product of the moment arm and the product of the mass and velocity vector of the body (Sellers 2004, 112-113). For this particular problem, we will use the latter to determine the angular momentum. H=R×mV H=0.5 m×0.25 kg2 ms H=0.25 kg∙m2s Since angular momentum is conserved, the angular momentum of the system every point in time ...

Executive summary

Security has become a big problem in today’s organizations setting. Intruders of al kinds have managed to successfully break into many companies’ web services as well as their networks. Several trials have been developed to curb the same from and secure companies’ infrastructural networks and exchange of information through secure channels, among these are firewall setups, encryption technology, and VPNs. Intrusion Detection is a new mechanism of instilling security in organizations’ networks. Application of this technique assists IT security manager to gather and utilize information resulting from recognized attacks and check if someone is attempting to break into your network ...
