Modulo 2.6: Lectura y escritura de documentos en ingles sobre redes y seguridad informatica

Computer security is known as cyber security or security of information technologies. The definition of information security should not be confused with that of "Computer Security", since the latter only deals with security in the computer environment, but the information can be found in different media or forms, and not only in media computer. Computer Security encompasses a series of security measures, such as antivirus software programs, firewalls, and other measures that depend on the user, such as activating the deactivation of certain software functions, such as Java scripts, ActiveX, caring of the proper use of the computer, network or Internet resources. The four main areas covered by computer security: 1. CONFIDENTIALITY: Only authorized users can access our resources, data and information. 2. INTEGRITY: Only authorized users can access our resources, data and information. 3. AVAILABILITY: Data must be available to users when necessary. 4. AUT

Illicit access will be typified in the event that a person accesses a computer system, however without authorization and could even exceed generating the security measures are violated. It is to be noticed, after reading the referred  article, does not require your configuration to subtract or delete information. It has the following characteristics: *The active subject is the one who accesses the computer system. *The taxpayer is the owner of this system, who can be a natural person or legal. *The behavior committed by the agent is fraudulent since he has had the will to access the computer system, without having an authorization or has exceeded of what he has. 

Unauthorized access to info. That an organization is trying to protect. A person is guilty of computer trespass if s/he intentionally and without authorization accesses, alters, deletes, damages, destroys, or disrupts any computer, computer system, computer network, computer program, or data. Computer trespass is directes generally towards computer hackers. There are state specific laws on the subject which varies from state to state. However a key element for all computer trespass offences is lack of of authorization to access a computer or computer system. The following is an example of a State Statute (New York) defining computer Trespass: NY CLS Penal $156.10 Computer trespass. A person is guilty of computer trespass when he or she knowingly uses, causes to be used, or accesses a computer, computer service, or computer network without authorization and: 1.
