Homework (should reach me by
MONDAY 26.10.2020 12:00)
An essay, about 500 words.
Part
1. A thought exercise.
Think
of a company / person / Institution, that you would like to attack. Tell me
about it, and why they would be a good target.
Describe
in a step by step fashion, how you would go about compromising the target, and
what would your final goal be. From the beginning. Briefly describe each step, i.e. (a)
I would google the company to find out their domain name. (b) I would look at
budget reports to see who the board members are. (c) I would find the emails of
the board members. etc.
DO
NOT DO ANY OF IT. Not even a little. Not even for fun.
Part
2. Analysis
Look
at your report. Look at all actions described there.
List
which laws you would be breaking at each step and what the prison sentences are
for these offenses, i.e. steps (a) … (e) not breaking any
laws. (f) identity theft, up to 3yrs * 2, (g) breaking and entering, up to
2yrs….
Sum up the per partem sentences and report them.
For
bonus points, think about which informal norms you would be breaking, and list
them.
NB. No need to be wordy. Concise is fine. For homework 1, I will actually tolerate bullet points (but won’t be ecstatic about it).
The general essay writing rules apply (each paragraph about a separate topic, flow, parsimony, double spaced, avoid fluff). No need to go past 500 words
