Include the following in your powerpoint

• The definition of a data breach
• Ways to determine if your system was infected with a virus
• At least three preventive measures against data breaches, both physical or digital
• Instructions on locating antivirus and firewall software
• Instructions on what to do if a virus has infected your computer5/10/2021 Originality Report SafeAssign Originality Report IT/200: Digital Skills For The 21st Century • Wk 5 - Data Breaches [due Mon] View Originality Report - Old Design Jesus Romero Total Score: 44 High risk % Submission UUID: a9dfefd5-1e1b-ddca-9be6-4978c21da597 Total Number of Reports Highest Match Average Match Submitted on Average Word Count 1 44 % 44 % 05/10/21 837 06:49 PM PDT Highest: IT200-5.pptx IT200-5.pptx Additional content 44 Word Count: 837 IT200-5.pptx % 38 % Institutional database (10) 11 Student paper 4 Student paper 13 Student paper 9 User paper 8 User paper 6 User paper 10 User paper 3 User paper 7 Student paper 1 User paper 4% Internet (2) 12 isr09 5 ecejyredagij 2% Global database (1) 2 Student paper Top sources (3) 11 Student paper 4 Student paper 13 Student paper Excluded sources (0) Data Breaches Jesus Romero IT/200 Professor Eric godat 1 De?nition of Data Breach 2 A data Breach is the unintentional or intentional exposure of con?dential, sensitive or private information to an unauthorized entity or person.

The major methods of detecting viruses in a system include scanning, integrity checking, heuristic detection and interception. However, interception and scanning are https://vle.phoenix.edu/webapps/mdb-sa-BB300502SF160441/originalityReport/ultra?attemptId=fb2cb62b-19e6-49ef-9823-154de139b0b2&course_id… 1/4 5/10/2021 Originality Report the most common as they are inbuilt features of anti-virus packages. 4 Scanning involves the search of all ?les in the system or computer memory including the boot sector using code snippets that identify if a ?le is a virus. Integrity checking involves recording integrity information of important ?les on a systems disk. instructions are then given on what to do if a virus has infected your computer If a ?le is corrupted by a virus it won’t match the recorded integrity information. 5 Heur- istic detection is a generic method of detecting a virus. It involves a set of rules to di?erentiate viruses from non-viruses that are built in antivirus software. Interception involves the use of interception software to detect suspicious behavior of a virus and warns the user before the system is harmed. 4 6 Preventive measures against data breaches, both physical or digital Ensure your computer has a running antivirus software which is up to date.
