Ethic and legal responsibilities in computer security


We as bigger understanders of the technology, are responsable for the safety of our society in the matter of computer security. People don't understand the danger that this technology revolution is bringing and it's in our hands to inform and educate people about this.

The Ken's class involves always crazy stories about how the Tec's Staff is always putting the students in danger by making decisions without taking in count the students computer security safety. From MiTec and Blackboard to the physical installations inside the Campus, we need to be a force of disruption and unconformity about this mishandling actions.

Modern computer systems provide services to multiple users and require the ability to accurately identify the user making a request. From services like banks or assurance, is not enough to verify a given password because in a network, its a package that can be intercepted and subsequently used to impersonate a user.
