Hacking in Society

Bischoff noted that most hackers are malicious and would like to breach and explore computer systems all over the world. Studies verified hackers cause billions of dollars of damage and disrupt society and businesses everywhere and should be stopped. First, there is a need to analyze the aspects of the destructive and ethical hackers. Another aspect that is needed to be observed is, the psyche of the juvenile and disruptive hackers that cause the most damage due to lack of knowledge and skill. In the end, the precautions and the capital that has been invested in Internet and network protection against the destructive hackers by companies.

Howarth explained that most ethical hackers are called white hat hackers. Quittner noted hackers most known for major destruction in companies and governments are known as black hat hackers. There is one more type of hackers and they are script kiddies, which are “hackers” that depend on scripts, a chat based program, which black hats attach exploits and attacks on and post on the Internet.(2)

QuinThe type the media is most likely to report on script kiddies, they are the ones who usually get caught by bragging on chats. The average age of these script kiddies is around twelve to thirty. Most of the script kiddies that are past age eighteen only have a twelve grade education, and the most common of the script kiddies are white and male. Most of these hackers leave damage or calling cards on purpose, for recognition in their underground community, but even if they are not to leave damage, they are most likely to.

Nature

Nature is a place used by many to reflect, reminisce, and enjoy life. People want to escape from their normal daily activities and do something that is different in their lives so they turn to nature. People go to the beach for recreational activities or to just relax and meet up with friends and family. The beach is used for sports, sun bathing, or to just play with friends. In Walt Whitman’s “On the Beach at Night Alone,” part of Leaves of Grass, Whitman speaks of a person walking on the beach. The person is just looking at the stars and thinking of the future. He is relaxing, taking a slow casual walk and taking time to just think. Shawn Hair is a painter who uses dramatic effects of light and shade to bring life to his paintings. In his painting “Spencer Beach Picnic” families are playing in the sand and just taking a walk on the beach. This painting is showing how the beach can be used in may different ways. It shows the love that the artist has for this setting as well as the beauty of it. Artists and writers use nature to show the feelings and moods of the objects in their work. The beach has many characteristics that draw people to come to the beach.

One specific environment that both artists and writers use is the beach. The beach can be very calm and can be used to just hang out for some relaxation. It’s a very convenient place to rest and enjoy life. As the temperature grows high, the sand begins to get hot, making it scorching at times. This quote shows the rising temperature of the beach, “The sand and rocks get very hot, reflecting the sun light and radiating heat. Ripples of heat waves shimmer of the surface like air above hot coals. The reflection of the sun off the sand can give you a sunburn”. This shows why the beach at times can be an uncomfortable place to be. The beach can be a comfortable place to be as well as uncomfortable on your skin. When this is the case, people use beach towels or chairs to protect their body. In “On the Beach at Night Alone” the person in the story is taking a nice stroll on the beach and taking time to think about the world. This shows how the beach can be used for a place to relax because it is calm and quiet. Artists use their painting to depict scenes of nature to show special qualities of that environment.
