Write a function treble that takes a pointer to an integer and triples its value. Note that this function does not return anything. You can test it using the following example or something similar:
int i=7;
cout << "old value; i="<<i<< "-"
treble(&i);cout <<"New Value:i="<< i <<"\n";

Which prints: Old vvalue:i =7 - new value: i=21

Pick any simple game that is played on a mobile device or desktop/tablet or game console. For this discussion you should consider the pros and cons of playing the same game using different interfaces. Select two interfaces, other than the GUI and mobile ones (e.g. tangible, wearable, and shareable) and describe how the game could be redesigned for each of these, taking into account the user group being targeted. For example, the tangible game could be designed for young children, the wearable interface for young adults, and the shareable interface for elderly people.

1. Include the name of the game and the real life platform and interface it is available.
2. Identify the two new interfaces you would play the game. Describe a hypothetical scenario of how the game would be played for each of the two interfaces. (Consider specific design issues that will need to be addressed. For example, for the shareable surface would it be best to have a tabletop or a wall-based surface? How will the users interact with the game features, how will interaction occur? Would you add any other rules?)
3. Compare the pros and cons of designing the game using the two different interfaces with respect to how it is currently played.

Draw a Schema Diagram using the information.

Signum Libri (SL) is a publishing company.

SL Operations Database will keep track of the following:

• • For each book SL publishes: a book name, genre, date of publication, and number of pages;
• • For each writer: a unique writer identifier as well as the writer’s name;
• • For each agent: a unique agent identifier as well as the agent’s name;
• • For each editor: a unique editor identifier as well as the editor’s name;
• • Each SL book is written by one writer, and each writer can write many SL books. SL will not keep track of writers who did not write a book for SL. All books written by the same writer have a different book name. However, two writers can write two different books with the same book name.
• • Each writer is represented by one agent. Each agent represents at least one writer, but can represent many.
• • Each book has one editor. Each editor edits at least one book, but can edit many books.
• • Each editor can mentor one or more other editors, but does not have to mentor any. Each editor can have at most one mentor editor, but does not have to have any

Write a C++ program that involves implementing the RSA cryptosystem. In practice for the encryption to be secure and to handle larger messages you would need to utilize a class for large integers. However, for this assignment you can use built-in types to store integers, e.g., unsigned long long int. Also, rather than using the ASCII table for this assignment use BEARCATII, which restricts the characters to the blank character and the lower-case letters of the alphabet as follows: blank character is assigned the value 0. A, …, Z are assigned the values 1, …, 26, respectively. The message M will be represented by replacing each character in the message with its assigned integer base 27. For example, the message M = “TEST” will be represented as N = 20 5 19 20 Translating this to decimal we obtain: D = 20 + 19*27 + 5*272 + 20*273 = 397838 Note that to convert back to base 27, we simply apply the algorithm we discussed in class, i.e., the least significant digit (rightmost) is obtained by performing the operations D mod 27 and performing a recursive call with D/27. For the example above we obtain, 397838 / 27, 397838 mod 27 = 14734, 20 → 14734 / 27, 14734 mod 27, 20 = 545, 19, 20 → 545/27, 545 mod 20, 19, 20 = 20, 5, 19, 20 = N Find primes p and q by choosing positive integers at random and testing for primality using Miller-Rabin probabilistic algorithm. Your program should prompt the user to input a positive integer representing the public key e. If the user enters a number that is not relatively prime to n = pq, then have the user reenter and keep doing this until e and n are coprime, i.e., gcd(e,φ(n)) = 1. Also prompt the user to enter the message M (as a character string). For handing purposes, run your program with M = “TEST”. Output p, q, n, M, C, P where C is the encrypted message, i.e., cyber text, and P is the decrypted message, i.e., plaintext. If your program is working correctly then M should be equal to P.

Complete the above java program by adding the following methods:

Part1:

1. isEmpty() checks if the linked list is empty or not. (return type is boolean)
2. printList() prints all data in the linked list. (void method)
3. insertFirst(int newData) add newData at the head of the linked list. (void method)
4. insertLasL(int newData) add newData at the tail of the linked list. (void method)
5. findMiddle() finds the middle element in the list and displays its value. (void method)
6. deleteFirst() deletes the first element of the list. (void method)
7. sizeList() returns the number of elements in the list. (return type is int)
8. Main method that calls all the previous seven methods.

3. Public Key Cryptography involves the use of two keys: a public key and a private key. Explain the use of each key

Programing language C++

In this exercise you will explore the performance difference between sequential search and binary search. To do so write a program that performs the following tasks:

Prompt the user for a file containing 100,000 unsorted integers

Read those integers into an array

Prompt the user for a search item

Search for that item (using sequential search) and report the number of comparisons required.

Sort the array. Note that this might take a few minutes.

Search for that item again (using binary search) and report the number of comparisons required.

You will need to modify both of the search functions to report the number of comparisons that were made during the search.

Use your program and the file of 100,000 integers provided here to answer the six questions in the quiz.

Activity 3: How does injection attack occur? (30 minutes)

Assume the web server includes the following code

sqlString = “select USERID from USER where USERID = ` $userId ` and PWD = ` $password `”

result = GetQueryResult(sqlString)

if(result = “”) then

     userHasBeenAuthenticated = False

else

     userHasBeenAuthenticated = True

end if

Here, $userId and $password are the values submitted by the user, and the query statement provides the quotation marks that set it as a literal string.

Critical Thinking Question

1. If a user enters UTC as userId and chattanooga’ as password, what is the constructed SQL statement which is also the value of sqlString from the above code?

2. Will the constructed SQL be executed? Why and Why not?

3. After enter UTC as userId and chattanooga’ you may observe different system responses: a) the SQL parser find the extra quote mark and aborts with a syntax error and return server error, or b) email address is unknown or We don't recognize your email address. This distinction will be very useful when trying to guess the structure of the query. Which one means that user input is not being sanitized properly and that the application is ripe for exploitation?

4. What is the resulting SQL query statement if a user enters User ID as ` OR ``=` and Password as `OR ``=`? What is the result of this query or what is the value of sqlString? Does this input allow user to log in? And why or Why not?

5. What is the resulting SQL query statement if a user enters User ID as ` OR ``=`` -- and Password as abc? What is the result of this query or what is the value of sqlString? Does this input allow user to log in? And why or Why not?

6. Explain why the case in question 7 and 8 construct injection attacks.

Activity 2: Injection Basics Injection attacks trick an application into including unintended commands in the data send to an interpreter.

Interpreters Interpret strings as commands such as SQL, shell (cmd.exe, bash)

Critical Thinking Questions: 1. What does a user/attacker see at the webpage? Where can an attacker enter exploit data/input? 2. Which entity builds user string input and send SQL query to Database server? 3. Which entity executes query including exploit and send back to web server and then user?
