Mafiaboy case is well known to the world as it affected 11 corporate networks.
- He became a great example as a novice who used pre-coded exploits to launch DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks.
- The tools used by Mafiaboy are easily available on the internet.
- The tools used by him required little computer knowledge and can be used by script kiddies.
- These attacks resulted in nearly $1 loss to many reputed companies.
Exploitation of several sites:
Mafiaboy’s attack blocked the networks and filled the networks with garbage data, by running a computer script.
- Because of these attacks it got difficult to reach those sites. In some cases the sites got completely crashed.
- The issue became so serious that the authorities were prompted to investigate...

Although you measure your products in kilograms, you often get orders in both pounds and ounces. You have decided that rather than have to look up conversions all the time, you could use Python code to take inputs to make conversions between the different units of measurement. You will write three blocks of code. The first will convert kilograms to pounds and ounces. The second will convert pounds to kilograms and ounces. The third will convert ounces to kilograms and pounds. The conversions are as follows: 1 kilogram = 35.274 ounces 1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms 1 pound = 16 ounces 1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds For the purposes of this activity the template for a function has been provided.
