Imagine if Jim was going to be infected by a virus that was going to be attached to an email and sent to him. Can you talk about this attack in terms of vulnerabilities, threats, and the agents of those threats?
Consider a piece of software that enables a surgeon in one location to participate in a surgery on a patient in another city through the internet. Who could be interested in watching the show? What kind of harm do they want to inflict? What flaws would they try to exploit in order to do you harm? Is it possible that such flaws might inflict harm even if there isn't an active, hostile enemy attempting to exploit them?
Imagine for a moment that a piece of software used for online banking had a hidden function that enables the developer to see the account data of any account that has a balance of at least ten thousand dollars. This is one of the scenarios that may play out. Who can say for sure what the repercussions could be if it turns out that this is an attack?
Consider software that lets a surgeon in one location to do surgery on a patient in a different location through the internet. Who wants to keep going once the programme is over? What kind of harm are they hoping to inflict? What flaws would they try to exploit in order to do you harm? Is it possible that such flaws might inflict harm even in the absence of a hostile attacker?
Is it feasible for Eve's adversary to introduce system instability via a transparent Man-in-the-Middle attack? In such case, how would you explain it?
Consider a piece of software that allows a surgeon in one city to assist in a surgery on a patient in another city over the internet. Who would want to pursue the program? What sort of harm do they want to cause? What vulnerabilities could they attempt to use in order to harm you? Is it conceivable that such vulnerabilities might cause damage even if no active, hostile attacker is present?
Imagine a programme that, over the internet, would let one surgeon perform surgery on a patient in another country. The last act has ended, so why should anybody still be there? How much destruction do they want to see? Which of your weaknesses do you believe they will emphasise in an effort to undermine you? Is it possible for harm to occur even if there is no active aggressor seeking to take advantage of these vulnerabilities?

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Discuss a cryptography attack scenario. Choose an attack and explain how it works. Be sure to choose one that hasn’t been mentioned by another classmate. What countermeasures would you apply? How do the countermeasures you would use compare to those your classmates recommended for the attacks they chose? What do those similarities or differences tell you about fighting these types of attacks?
