- When huge data amounts are been kept in electronic form, it becomes susceptible to many threats.
- The information systems in many locations are been interconnected through communication networks.
- The unauthorized access can occur at many access points in network and is not limited to single location.
- The data flowing over networks could be accessed; valuable information could be stolen while transmission or data could be altered without authorization.
- The denial-of-service attacks are launched by intruders to disrupt website operations.
- Internets are vulnerable than internal networks as it is open to everyone.

Change the following code so that it checks the following 3 conditions:
1. there is no space between each cells (imgs)
2. even if it is resized, the components wouldn't disappear
3. The GameGUI JPanel takes all the JFrame space, so that there shouldn't be extra space appearing in the frame other than the game.
Main():
Labyrinth labyrinth = new Labyrinth(10);
Player player = new Player(9, 0); Dragon dragon = new Dragon(9, 9);
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Labyrinth Game"); GameGUI gui = new GameGUI(labyrinth, player, dragon);
frame.add(gui); frame.setSize(600, 600); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setVisible(true);
public class GameGUI extends JPanel { private final Labyrinth labyrinth; private final Player player; private final Dragon dragon; //labyrinth, player, dragon are just public classes
private final ImageIcon playerIcon = new ImageIcon("data/images/player.png");…
Make the following game user friendly with GUI, with some simple graphics. The GUI should be in another seperate class, with some ImageIcon, and Game class should be added into the pane.
The following code works as this: The objective of the player is to escape from this labyrinth. The player starts at the bottom left corner of the labyrinth. He has to get to the top right corner of the labyrinth as fast he can, avoiding a meeting with the evil dragon. The player can move only in four directions: left, right, up or down. There are several escape paths in all labyrinths. The player’s character should be able to moved with the well known WASD keyboard buttons. If the dragon gets to a neighboring field of the player, then the player dies. Because it is dark in the labyrinth, the player can see only the neighboring fields at a distance of 3 units.
Cell Class:
public class Cell { private boolean isWall; public Cell(boolean isWall) { this.isWall = isWall; } public boolean isWall() { return…

Palindrome numbers are numbers that their decimal representation can be read from left to right and from right to left (e.g. 12321, 5995, 1234321). The program will create T worker threads to check for prime and palindrome numbers in the given range (T will be passed to the program with the Linux command line). Each of the threads works on a part of the numbers within the range. Your program should have some global shared variables: • numOfPrimes: which will track the total number of prime numbers found by all threads. numOfPalindroms: which will track the total number of palindrome numbers found by all threads. numOfPalindromic Primes: which will count the numbers that are BOTH prime and palindrome found by all threads. TotalNums: which will count all the processed numbers in the range. In addition, you need to have arrays…arrow_forwardHow do you distinguish between hardware and a software problem?
