1. Advantages Access control systems are designed to permit the free flow of authorized movement into any site, whilst denying entry to unwanted visitors.
Disadvantages if there is a power cut it can let no one in or every one in.
2. Key card doors are more secure than normal lock because they are harder to open than standard doors
3. to keep a system going 24/7 you need to keep back ups in case of power failure, good anti virus system and firewall, good physical system to stop people getting in.

Activity 5.7
The Klez Computer Worm (the virus that won’t die).
The Klez computer worm Is now in it’s seventh month of being on the web Antivirus software makers Symantec and McAfee both report more than 2000 new infections daily.
Klez infects Microsoft Windows systems, exploiting vulnerability in Internet Explorer's Trident layout engine, used by both Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express to render HTML mail.
How It Works
Klez is an example of a blended threat: software that distributes itself like a virus but sometimes behaves like a worm and at other times like a Trojan horse. Klez usually arrives in the in-boxes of unsuspecting victims as a file attachment. It uses various subject lines, including "Klez removal tool". Some variants also draw subject lines from random words in files on a victim's hard drive.

The Klez Worm Compared To NetSky
Netsky is a prolific family of computer worms. The first variant appeared on Monday, February 16, 2004. The "B" variant was the first family member to find its way into mass distribution. It appeared on Wednesday, February 18, 2004.
18-year-old Sven Jaschan of Germany confessed to having written these, and other worms, such as Sasser.
Although individual functions vary widely from virus to virus, the Netsky family perhaps is most famous for comments contained within the code of its variants insulting the authors of the Bagle and Mydoom worm families and, in some cases, routines that removed versions of these viruses. The "war" as it was referred to in the media caused a steady increase in the number of variant viruses produced in these families.
As of June 2004, Bagle had approximately 28, Netsky approximately 29, and MyDoom approximately 10.
Other symptoms of Netsky included beeping sounds on specified dates, usually in the morning hours.
The worm was sent out as an e-mail, enticing recipients to open an attachment. Once opened, the attached program would scan the computer for e-mail addresses and e-mail itself to all addresses found.
Until October 2006, the P variant of this virus remained the most prevalent virus being sent in e-mail throughout the world, despite being over two and a half years old. It was surpassed by a variant from the Station malware family in November 2006.

1. Components in a network.
.Switch or Hub
.PC
.Network Card (NIC)
.Modem
.Ethernet Cable
2.The Roles of the Components.
.Switch Or Hub – Connects network segments together.
.PC – Is your Personal Computer that you work at.
.Network Card (NIC) – Is The card that does all the talking to the switch .
.Modem - a modem or a modulator-demodulator converts analog To Digital or A2DC .
.Ethernet Cable – is the cable you use to connect to the switch or modem to connect to the internet.
3.Witch Is Better A Switch Or A Hub?
A Switch is better because it is More Intelligent Then a Hub so It Can take information straight to the location requested But A Hub has to ask every computer on the network “Do Want This” all in one go so it takes more time to do it .
