Ken Thompson, one of the inventors of UNIX, said, "The act of breaking into a computer system has to have the same social stigma as breaking into a neighbor’s house.

Discussion Questions Before the discussion at the start of this chapter, how do Fred, Gladys, and Charlie each perceive the scope and scale of the new information security effort? Did Fred’s perception change after that? How should Fred measure success when he evaluates Gladys’ performance for this project? How should he evaluate Charlie’s performance?

Who defines what “social justice” is? “Hacktivists” are people who will often perform cyberattacks with the intent of correcting some perceived wrong. This can be seen as a form of vigilantism. Governments also use cyberattacks to achieve goals in the interest of national security or at least national interests.arrow_forwardMost software, including operating systems, is not error free when it is first released. Some programs, in fact, contain thousands of problems, called bugs. Software companies regularly release fixes (called patches) to correct known issues with released software. Many hackers and other criminals target these bugs with computer viruses or other attacks, frequently on the day a new vulnerability is announced—called a zero-day attack. Obviously, the acts by these criminals are not ethical, but what responsibility does a software company have to consumers if they are put at risk due to the company’s carelessness or rush to market? What responsibility do consumers have to make sure they keep their computers patched against new vulnerabilities?arrow_forward
