My Experience Using Scratch and Programming Languages

My Experience Using Scratch and Programming Languages My Scratch Projec t file:///Users/marcusmitchell/Downloads/Scratch Project (1).sb3 Experience Using Scratch Scratch is a super cool tool that helps kids learn about programming. It’s got a friendly interface that makes it easy for kids to create their own games and animations. I tried it out and made a golden cat that could move around the scene! It was my first time programming an animation, and I had a blast. You use different keys on your keyboard to control your characters. I chose a cat and programmed him to walk, cartwheel, jump, and flip. The only challenging part was adding sound to the command. I could not get the commands to sync with the sounds. I wanted the cat to move with the sound as soon as I pressed the key. So, I moved the sound box down one slot, but it didn’t work. Then I tried using an IF/THEN control, but his legs wouldn’t move. After a few tries, I finally figured out how to make it work. It turns out I d...

The Vulnerabilities of Computer Systems

The Vulnerabilities of Computer Systems Introduction Computer systems are exposed to various hazards when connected to the Internet and other networks. Threat actors are people who wish to steal information and damage networks (TestOut, 2024.). When bad guys take over a network, their sneaky fingers can get a hold of your personal info, and you could lose it forever. So, it’s super important to be careful and follow the rules of cybersecurity. These cyberattacks are constantly changing, so the bad guys are always coming up with new ways to steal your stuff. They easily manipulate the interconnected nature of the modern-day world by praying on unsuspecting individuals. Raising awareness about cyber threats and adhering to safe protocols makes you less likely to fall victim to cybercrimes. This paper explores various common cyber threats, such as ping flood attacks, malware infections, and phishing schemes, emphasizing the importance of cybersecurity awareness and best practices to safeg...

Computers and Cybersecurity

Computers in Cybersecurity Computers play a critical role in cybersecurity. Cyberattacks are becoming more prominent as computers continue gaining popularity (Zeng et al., 2024). Gaining control over computers and networks is the primary goal of threat actors in cybersecurity (TestOut, 2024). Computers store valuable information, such as financial and medical records. Threat actors can steal your secrets and do whatever they want if they enter your computer. Cybercriminals send fraudulent emails that lead users to replicated websites (phishing) and other forms of social engineering to steal your personal information (TestOut, 2024). Cybersecurity analysts defend people and networks against threat actors. They use computers daily to review emails and monitor security alerts (Struggle Security, 2023). They also use computers to access the internet and learn about the updates in cybersecurity and technology (Struggle Security, 2023). Staying up to date keeps security analysts in the loop...

I Documented My Day Using Productivity Software

My Experience Using Ping and Traceroute Command

Ping and Traceroute for Google Ping and traceroute For this experiment, I chose to ping google.com, bbc.co.uk and abc.net.au. The first time I pinged Google, I thought I had broken my computer because my computer wouldn’t stop pinging Google. I ended up terminating the whole program and looking for more information on YouTube. After a quick search, I found I was supposed to end the command by pressing CTRL C (eHowTech, 2012). On my second attempt, I got the results I was looking for. My computer sent six packets with low latency of around 20 to 29 ms. However, one packet was lost along the way. Next, I sent a ping to the BBC in the UK. The information traveled quickly, about 10 to 20 ms and no packets were lost. Finally, I pinged ABC in Australia. My packets took a bit longer to reach their destination, averaging around 40 ms, but no packets were lost. I was able to connect with each website with little hassle. Next, I use traceroute for the same websites. Google showed the same low la...
