Program Plan Intro

IP addresses:

  • The IP address denotes an unsigned integer that is 32-bit.
  • The IP addresses is been stored by network programs in IP address structure.
  • The addresses present in IP address structure are stored in network byte order.
  •  An unsigned 32-bit integer is transformed from host byte order to network byte order by “htonl” function.
  • An unsigned 32-bit integer is transformed from network byte order host byte order by “ntohl” function.
  • The IP address is presented to humans in a form known as “dotted-decimal” notation.
    • Each byte is been represented by its corresponding decimal value and is separated by a period from other bytes.

Passing program arguments to server:

  • The arguments for “GET” requests are passed in the URI.
  • The character “?” separates filename from the arguments.
  • The character “&” separates each argument.
  • The arguments do not allow spaces in it.

Server passes arguments to child:

  • The server calls “fork” to create a child process and calls “execve” to run program in child’s context once it receives a request.
  • The child process sets CGI environment variable values.
  • The “adder” program can reference it at run time using “getenv” function of linux.

Output is sent by child:

  • The dynamic content of a CGI program is to be sent to standard output.
  • A CGI program sends dynamic content to standard output.
  • It uses “dup2” function for redirecting standard output to connected descriptor associated with client.
  • The result written to standard output by CGI program, it goes directly to client.

3. Problem Description: Define the Circle2D class that contains: Two double data fields named x and y that specify the center of the circle with get methods. • A data field radius with a get method. • A no-arg constructor that creates a default circle with (0, 0) for (x, y) and 1 for radius. • A constructor that creates a circle with the specified x, y, and radius. • A method getArea() that returns the area of the circle. • A method getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter of the circle. • • • A method contains(double x, double y) that returns true if the specified point (x, y) is inside this circle. See Figure (a). A method contains(Circle2D circle) that returns true if the specified circle is inside this circle. See Figure (b). A method overlaps (Circle2D circle) that returns true if the specified circle overlaps with this circle. See the figure below. р O со (a) (b) (c)< Figure (a) A point is inside the circle. (b) A circle is inside another circle. (c) A circle overlaps another…
1. Explain in detail with examples each of the following fundamental security design principles: economy of mechanism, fail-safe default, complete mediation, open design, separation of privilege, least privilege, least common mechanism, psychological acceptability, isolation, encapsulation, modularity, layering, and least astonishment.
Security in general means the protection of an asset. In the context of computer and network security, explore and explain what assets must be protected within an online university. What the threats are to the security of these assets, and what countermeasures are available to mitigate and protect the organization from such threats. For each of the assets you identify, assign an impact level (low, moderate, or high) for the loss of confidentiality, availability, and integrity. Justify your answers.
