Suggested security resource
March 20, 2016
Question
I was looking for some information about security when I came across your Security Resources page
Awesome page! I learned a lot of good stuff that I hadn’t seen before.
Anyway, would you mind if I suggest a page that might be of interest to you and your readers? This article might make a good addition to the page. The article is about home security tips when you’re away.
If you find the page useful, I'd appreciate it if you add it.
Either way, keep up the great work!

Thanks for the suggested article. I added a link on the Security Resources and Home Security pages.

Resource for network security
January 13, 2016
Question
Hey Ron,
I was searching for sites with resource pages for small businesses, and I came across this page: www.school-for-champions.com/entrepreneurship/resources.htm.
I wanted to give you a heads up that we created a network security guide for small businesses, as I thought it might be worth a mention on your page along with your other resources: http://www.switchfast.com/guide/protect-your-business-from-cyber-criminals.aspx
Either way, keep up the awesome work!
Cheers,

What if I shoot an attacker?
May 19, 2015
Question
what if i shoot an attacker and dies on spot,what action should i take immediately?
mandela - Kenya (26009)
Answer
If your life was being threatened--or that of your loved ones--it may be necessary to shoot the attacker. If it is simply a case of someone breaking into your house to steal and there is no real threat, it is better to show your weapon and try hold him until the police arrive.
If you kill an attacker, should call the authorities. However, sometimes you would have to prove you were being attacked.
It would be a good idea to check with your police or authorities to find out the proper procedures.
Best wishes. I hope you never get into this situation.

Suggested security resource
December 26, 2012
Question
Hello,
I work for MasterOfHomelandSecurity.org, a web guide for students and professionals in the Homeland Security field. I wanted to share with
you a recent article we've published that showcases the Top 100National Security Resources. You can view it here www.masterofhomelandsecurity.org/national-security.html.
I feel it is a comprehensive list of the best sites covering cybersecurity, counter-terrorism, civil defense, and other areas essential to the national security of this great nation.
We're trying to spread the word about this list, so if you agree with its value and think others would be interested, I'd very much appreciate if you would share it with your readers, and anyone else you can think of.
If you have any questions, comments, or other feedback about the article or site in general, please do let me know.
Best,
Sarah - USA (23081)
Answer
Thanks for the information. I added a link to the site at Security Resources.
I will also add links to many of the resources in appropriate places.
What is Security
Roles of security in the development of a state
January 10, 2012
Question
What are the roles of security in the development of a state
Henry - Nigeria (22317)
Answer
There are many roles of security in a state or government. At a high level, the borders of a state must be secure to prevent enemies from entering the country or attacking it. Buildings and important documents must be secure to present criminals from stealing them or seeing state secrets. Officials must be safe from those who would do them harm.
Security in a state can be very complex, since there are many things and people that need to be protected from those against the state.
Need
I want to teach my team about security
November 22, 2011
Question

how to i write a report for security after a seminar?
nixon - Kenya (22191)
Answer
You can use our material as a start on learning and teaching about security. However, if you need more detailed information and instruction, you need to access companies that specialize in security training.
What is Security
Is security good for Afghanistan?
May 24, 2011
Question
what is security?
security is a good for the Afghanistan or no?
Rajab - Afghanistan (21618)
Answer
Security is protection against danger, damage, loss, and crime.
Security means that you want your family protected from bad people who might do them harm. You want your home and business protected from criminals who might try to steal things.
A country such as Afghanistan wants security against those who want to destroy their society and harm their people. This is security against outsiders, as well as destructive people within the country.
Theory
What strategies are there to avoid terrorist incidents?
March 11, 2011
Question
what kind of strategies /safety precaution are recommended to avoid terrorist incidents?
baber - Pakistan (21313)
Answer
Many countries have used concrete barricades to prevent terrorist vehicles filled with explosives from getting close enough to damage a government building.
Unfortunately, that is not practical for preventing terrorists from bombing groups of innocent people or attacking other buildings, such as houses of worship.
The major weakness of terrorist groups is that they need to organize and meet to plot their cowardly deeds. Informants, police and observant citizens can alert authorities of plans and possible activities of terrorists.
It is a very difficult problem to handle, since the goal of terrorists is often to destroy civilized society.

Reasons
Lawyer using access to secret information
December 9, 2010
Question
The homeland security and the lawyer (divorce I believe) were using finanical audits to gain secret entrance to medical records and for financial security to make money and to use the private companies as an coerced method to gain access to the building itself and to close it and the illustrative censorship program was part and parcel the reason it was used and it was used to advertise bawdy house sales, sexual in nature and to intimidate the voters and so they advertised living off the proceeds of a crime and it was a way to get their own way in general. There was a rat line installed. Sexual exploitation and to challenge the mainstream seemed to be the heart of the matter and where it still remains to date.
ie The group used it to sell the ideal to the public voters that their use of technology was going to be used come hell or high water and that they did not have to be punished as a resultant of their criminal actions.
Karen - Canada (20818)
Answer
Unfortunately there are people who use clever methods to try to make money illegally. But also, there are companies who hold such things as financial records and financial records that are very careless in securing that information.
This is why it is important for individuals companies and the government to make sure that information is secure from criminal elements and that there are laws to prosecute those criminals.
Reasons
Compare anti-virus software
April 21, 2010
Question
comparing Anti-virus software:anti-virus software is a product that is availablable by commercial purchase and freeware offering.do a study and analysis of two drand of anti-virus software either commercial product or freeware and find out what methodologies of that particular anti virus software uses. write a brief explaiing the strength and weakess of their approach and comparing any differences.
hauwa - Pakistan (19584)
Answer
The major anti-virus software products are Norton, McAfee, and Kaspersky. There are a few other brands available.
Since bad people are constantly inventing new computer viruses, these companies spend a lot of money keeping up to date with the latest threats. Free anti-virus software may work fine but also may be up to a year out of date with the latest threats.
You can check the websites of the major software companies, although they do not like to tell how they combat viruses, since it would alert those who write the code.
