10. “People often claim that one of every three large-scale software systems gets canceled mid-project. Of those that do make it out the door, three-quarters are never implemented: some do not work as intended; others are just shelved.” By Stephanie Moore

11.  Common Mistakes in Software Creation ◦ “Metaphysical Absence” ◦ Unreachable deadlines ◦ Shortages of “can-do” attitudes

12.  Obtain the correct tools  Keep it simple  Don’t stifle creativity!

15.  Spring of 2007, Russia  Estonian monument was moved by the Red Army from capital city to the outskirt of town  Bogus Requests-Requests for information from computers around the world  Banks, Media Outlets, and Ministries were hacked  Most publicized hack in recent history

16.  Most active for hacking computers  Washington accused China of hacking into government computer networks  June 2007-Hacked into Pentagon Network  Suspected of hacking in Britain, France, Germany, South Korea, and Taiwan  Russian and China both denied the accusations.

17.  William Arkin, Defense Analyst ◦ “Our abilities to penetrate into enemy computer networks, our ability to exploit communication networks, to manipulate digital information, is real.”  U.S. has technologies capable of penetrating and jamming enemy networks

18.  Request information while masking the location of primary attacker  Use of malware, spyware, and other programs to steal information without user’s knowledge  Cyber attacks aimed at critical infrastructure- less common, but more serious and damaging ◦ Nuclear Power Plant Control Systems ◦ Banks and Subways

19.  Until recently, U.S. government did not emphasize on safety from cyber attacks  Difficulty in finding the cyber threat  This is getting more serious and more time demanding  U.S. is a big target  Cyber attacks on the U.S. economy may be the worst case  U.S. claimed that their systems are secure and safe

20.  What country is mostly blame for cyber attacks?  TRUE or FALSE: U.S. have technologies capable of penetrating and jamming enemy networks?
