Types of networks:

There are several ways to classify networks. One of the best ways to classify network is to consider the geographic scope of the network.

Types of network based on the geographic scope of the network are listed below:

  • Local Area Network (LAN)
    • A LAN is a set of computer machines placed in the same common area. A LAN can cover a small area such as a single building, a work area, or a group of buildings.
  • Backbone Network (BN)
    • A BN is a large central network connecting many local area networks. Typically backbone networks extent from hundreds of feet to several miles and offer high speed data transmission.
  • Wireless Area Network (WAN)
    • A WAN connects many backbone networks. They typically range from hundreds to thousands of miles and offer high speed data transmission that range from 64-Kbps to 10-Gbps.

From the following mass-spring system, obtain its transfer function and pole-zero diagram in MATLAB. Analyze how stability varies when entering values. wwwww R -0000 e(t) i(t) e(t) is the input variable, and the voltage across the capacitor is the controlled variable.
Conduct a comprehensive study on Botnet networks, focusing on their architecture and functionality. Provide a detailed analysis of their control mechanisms via C2 (Command and Control) structures, and classify the different types of Botnets (centralized, decentralized, hybrid). Explain their primary uses in offensive contexts and discuss the evolution of detection and mitigation techniques in light of technological advancements in cybersecurity. Additional Note: Design a complete Botnet simulator using Python programming, including both the C2 server and the bot client. Demonstrate how the bots connect to the server, and how commands are sent and received between them.
