Computer Security Seminar Report and Material
I want to make a simple report, regarding to my chance to give a lecture in Seminar. It was so interesting experience. The topic told about Network and Computer Security perspective. And college is not an IT college, but focusing in Economics and Management.
The students who attended the seminar were asking much about the computer security attack especially about the computer viruses. It makes me remember 14 years a go when I was still an undergraduate student. I sometimes caught virus. Its name was jebak.com while the viruses mostly in DOS environment. But well, I didn't talk about it more.
Basically computer security is very important. Most of us, usually didn't give any attention except our computer is hang, or stop working. These problems make many people wonder how to solve them. I suggested for windows operating system user, to boot into their Safe Mode and trying to make sure whether hidden program is run by unknown program. Simply run the msconfig and regedit. But perhaps you will need more about these topics by googling and wikipedia website.
I think I need to share the slides. I also quot some slides from my senior lecturer, Rudi Lumanto, because I think the material is good enough.
Later I will try to tell more about my seminar experience, whether I just and attende or presenter. Hopefully, you can share knowledge as much as you want. It will make people arround you happier. But there is a note, the seminar material is in mix of Bahasa Indonesia and English. I'll try to make it available 100% in English later.
