              Crimping Tool

               The purpose of a crimping tool is to prepare a network or cable for use, with an example of crimping being to adjoin a connector to the end of a cable. RJ-11 and RJ-45 connectors are common connectors used for cables, but they can be attached to the end of a cable with a crimping tool.

              Wire Stripper

           A wire stripper is used to remove a section of insulation at the end of a wire. It trims a bare wire to reach the end of the connector and helps it to match the connector base by simply inserting the wire into the correct gauge slot, and closing the jaws of the stripper for which the wire will then strip away from each other when pulled.

           Wire Cutter

           It is a tool used to cut a wire and sometimes used to cut a cable, it is always advisable to make sure that the tool is clean and in good condition and gripped securely when trying to cut a wire with the tool.

System Hardening Week 9

  Assume Breach and Be Proactive: Traditional cybersecurity is reactive, responding to known attack methods. However, sophisticated adversaries continuously evolve their tactics to bypass security solutions. Threat hunting operates under an “assume breach” mindset. It seeks to uncover indications of attack (IOA) that haven’t been detected yet. The goal is to outthink the attacker by identifying and mitigating threats before they access sensitive data.

Week 7 Cloud Computing.

  Cloud Computing vs. Internet of Things (IoT) Cloud Computing Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services (such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, and analytics) over the internet ("the cloud"). Key characteristics include: ·          On-Demand Resources : Users can access resources as needed without physical hardware. ·          Scalability : Easily scale resources up or down based on demand. ·          Cost-Effectiveness : Pay-as-you-go pricing models reduce the need for significant upfront investments in hardware. ·          Accessibility : Access services from anywhere with an internet connection. Internet of Things (IoT) The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of interconnected devices that collect and exchange data. These devices can include anything from smart home appliances t...

week 10 Cloud Computing.

  File Storage Description: Structure: Hierarchical, using directories and subdirectories. Data Organization: Files are stored with metadata like filename, timestamps, and permissions. Advantages: Familiarity: Easy for users to understand and manage, akin to traditional file systems. Ideal Use Cases: Great for storing and managing documents, media files, and shared drives. Block Storage Description: Structure: Data is divided into fixed-sized blocks. Data Organization: Each block has a unique identifier, but no metadata is attached directly. Advantages: Performance: High performance and low latency. Flexibility: The operating system can be formatted and used as required. Ideal Use Cases: Databases: Suitable for database applications. Virtual Machines: Commonly used for VM storage and high-performance applications.
