While troubleshooting a computer hardware problem, you find that the processor is not being informed when a device has data ready to be read or written. What is the likely problem?

Which of the following best describes the job duties of security administrators?

A. They create security policies. B. They design secure systems. C. They check if employees comply with security policies. D. They ensure appropriate separation of duties exists to prevent abuse of privilege.

A program is written to compute the sum of the integers from 1 to 10. The programmer, well trained in reusability and maintainability, writes the program so that it computes the sum of the numbers from k to n. However, a team of security specialists scrutinizes the code. The team certifies that this program properly sets k to 1 and n to 10; therefore, the program is certified as being properly

restricted in that it always operates on precisely the range 1 to 10. List different ways that this program can be sabotaged so that during execution it computes a different sum, for example, 3 to 20. What will be an ideal response?
