Cyberterrorists use the internet to spread propaganda and enlist new members and use DoS/DDoS attacks to cause disruption to companies that represent actions against their belief’s (Vacca & Rudolph, 2011). Cyber terrorists can also steal information to be used for self-serving strategic purposes. Kostadinov (2012) makes the distinction between cybercrime and cyberterrorism in that the latter should resemble terrorist attacks via traditional methods but perpetrated virtually. Kostadinov goes on to note that most cyberterrorism actions are generally focused on website sabotage and email blasting.

Next tool on our list is the disk defragmenter tool. This tool moves the clusters of a hard drive to make one continuous cluster. When a program is deleted off of a machine is fragments the harddrive leaving the clusters in different parts of the harddrive when a defrag is ran it takes all the fragmented clusters and makes them all one. You can run this manually by performing the following steps. Click Start, and then click Computer.

Timing – synchronization between devices that are communicating so that they each know when the patterns start and end. If one of these elements is not present than communication cannot be established between devices and information cannot be transmitted. Exercise 2.1.2 Characteristics of a modern computer that allow this type of integration is advancement in circuitry that allow it to be installed on the computer as one device or unit. Exercise 2.1.3 Other network services available for installation are UPnP user interface and TCP/IP services Exercise 2.1.4 Since there are no physical connections everything can be done wirelessly. Exercise 2.1.5 The types of connections that are available are wired connection, wireless connection, and dial-up connection.

Port scan is as the name implies, a scan of the open ports on each computer of the network to define which ports are open and what services are running on them. This information can be used to set up an attack on the network by allowing the hacker to bypass vulnerability in the software being run or on any open ports that can be used to gain deeper access to the network. With a port scan the probe sends information to each port on the network and the open ones respond back, this data can be used to determine the easiest way to infiltrate the network. The safest way to defend against this type of probe is using a firewall. Just as in a ping sweep, if you deny access to a port scan requesting information from the network you render them
This helps with secure VPN and Internet traffic through the ASA 5510 VPN Router. The VPN is able to locate in a specific area where the malicious attack is coming from and which employee has done it.
