1. You are the CEO of a three-year-old software manufacturer that has several products and annual revenues in excess of 500 million dollars. You've just received a recommendation from the manager of software development to hire three notorious crackers to probe your software products in an attempt to identify any vulnerabilities. The reasoning is that if anyone can find a vulnerability in your software, they can. This will give your firm a head start on developing parches to fix the problems before anyone can exploit them. You're not sure, and feel uneasy about hiring people with criminal records and connections to unsavory members of the hacker/cracker community. What would you do?

Ans.
No, because we can't sure the safety of our company, if we have a problem we can hire a professional I.T. graduate to help us to fixed any problem.







4. Your friend just told you that he is developing a worm to attack the administrative systems at your college. The worm is "harmless" and will simply cause a message - "Let's party!" - to be dispalyed on all workstations on Friday afternoon at 3 p.m. By 4 p. m., the virus will erase itself and destroy all evidence of its presence. What would you say or do?

Ans.
I will discourage him to stop his plan because many people put in danger situation although the virus is harmless because that is the beginning of large virus.
