II Subject and object pronouns (субъектные / объектные
местоимения),
reflexive
pronouns
(возвратные
местоимения)
Субъектные местоимения (subject pronouns) отвечают
на вопрос «кто?» / «что?»; являются в предложении
подлежащим.
Объектные (object pronouns) – на разные вопросы
косвенных падежей: «кого / что?», «кому / чему?», «о ком / о
чем?» и т. д., являются дополнением.
She cooks everyday for him (Она готовит для него каждый
день), здесь she – это subject pronoun, а him – object pronoun.
8
Возвратные
местоимения
в
английском
языке
используются, когда действие глагола направлено на само
действующее лицо, то есть субъект и объект совпадают, это
одно и то же лицо.
I advertise myself. She speaks about herself.
Для того, чтобы образовать возвратное местоимение,
частица self присоединяется к объектным местоимениям:
Обратите внимание на различие форм возвратных
местоимений в единственном и во множественном числе:
Number
FIRST
PERSON (1-е лицо)
SECOND PERSON
(2-е лицо)
THIRD PERSON
(3-е лицо)
Singular
myself
yourself
Plural
ourselves
yourselves
himself/herself/itself
themselves
Существует
неопределенно-личное
местоимение
oneself, его употребляют, когда говорят о ком-то в общем, не
указывая на определенного человека:
It is a great ability – to put oneself in the others’ position.
Глаголы, которые всегда употребляются с возвратными
местоимениями: absent oneself, avail oneself (of) and pride
oneself (on):
9
Monica absented herself from work. Jim prides himself on his
cooking.
Глаголы, которые часто употребляются с возвратными
местоимениями, но могут использоваться и без них: amuse,
blame, cut, dry, enjoy, hurt, and introduce:
I’ve cut myself with the bread knife. I’ve cut my thumb.
Можно применять объектные местоимения после этих
глаголов (me, him, her, etc.) только когда они относятся к
кому-то другому, не к субъекту, т. е. субъект и объект
различны:
He amused me (НЕЛЬЗЯ I amused me// cut me)
Идиомы с возвратными местоимениями:
We really enjoyed ourselves. (= had a good time)
I hope the children behave themselves. (= behave well)
Just help yourself to sandwiches, won’t you? (= take as many
as you want)
Please make yourself at home. (= behave as if this was your
home)
I don’t want to be left here by myself. (= on my own, alone)
Глаголы, которые не употребляются с возвратными
местоимениями: afford, approach, complain, concentrate, decide, feel + adjective, get up, hurry (up), lie down, meet, remember, rest, relax, sit down, stand up, wake up, wonder,
worry
Shall we meet at the cinema? I feel uncomfortable.
С предлогами места и после with (= accompanied by)
возвратные местоимения не используются, в этом случае –
объектные местоимения (me, you, him, etc.):
There was an empty chair beside her.
I brought the children with me.
10
Есть глаголы, которые обычно не употребляются с
возвратными местоимениями, но могут использоваться вместе
с ними для того, чтобы акцентировать что-то или
подчеркнуть, что действие выполняется с трудом: dress,
hide, shave, wash, get up, sit down, stand up, wake up and get
wet, get tired, get dressed, get married
I sat myself down with difficulty. Old Bill has got himself married at last! My friend is disabled, but she can dress herself.
Сравните значение и употребление -selves и each other:
Kate and Joe stood in front of the mirror and looked at themselves. (= Kate and Joe looked at Kate and Joe)
Kate looked at Joe; Joe looked at Kate. They looked at each
other.
Можно использовать one another вместо each other:
How long have you and Ben known each other? (= known one
another?)

TEXT А. Protect Yourself, Secure Your Future
Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information to:
– Purchase goods, property, or services without your consent;
– Create fake financial accounts in your name;
– Impersonate you for financial gain or to receive medical
care;
– File fraudulent tax returns under your name to obtain your
refund; and/or
– Commit other crimes that can damage your personal credit
and reputation.
Victims often spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to fix the damage caused by identity thieves.
What Does Identity Theft Look Like?
Identity theft can take many forms. Often, identity thieves like
to simply steal money. This is called financial identity theft.
Financial identity theft generally takes one of two forms: existing account fraud or new account fraud. Existing account fraud
is extremely common, and there is a good chance you have already
experienced it at some point in your life. This type of fraud happens when an identity thief gains access to an account that you
created. For example, if an identity thief makes a purchase using
your stolen credit card number, you are a victim of existing account fraud. Existing account fraud can be relatively easy to spot,
but difficult to prevent. Diligently monitoring your account statements for unauthorized activity is one of the best ways to spot existing account fraud. Be sure to check your account statements at
least once a month, but more frequently if possible.
17
New account fraud occurs when identity thieves use stolen information to create a new account in your name. By using your
stolen information (name, date of birth, or Social Security number,
for example), someone may be able to open a credit card or utility
account in your name. This type of fraud can be very dangerous
because it may go undiscovered for many years. Victims often discover the new accounts when they are contacted by a debt collection agency or applying for credit. New account fraud can be hard
to spot, but it’s easy to prevent. A free tool, called a credit freeze is
extremely effective at preventing new account fraud. Checking
your credit report annually from each of the three major credit reporting agencies is a good way to see if an identity thief has fraudulently opened an account in your name. The three major credit
reporting agencies are Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. Check
your credit report from all three major credit reporting agencies at
least once per year. Also consider placing a credit freeze with all
three credit reporting agencies before identity theft happens. This
is one of the only preventative tools in the world of identity theft.
Other common forms of identity theft include medical, criminal,
and income tax fraud.
– Medical identity theft occurs when an unauthorized person
uses your personal information to receive medical care. This is
dangerous because it could negatively affect your insurance rates,
or potentially lead to an inaccurate diagnosis or dangerous drug
interaction.
– “Criminal” identity theft occurs when a person uses your
personal information in the commission of a crime, often as an alias or during a traffic stop.
– Income tax identity theft occurs when a person uses your
personal information to file a fraudulent tax return to obtain a tax
refund. The identity thief will submit phony tax information to receive a large tax refund in your name.
Identity thieves seem to be endlessly inventive. As a result,
the list of miscellaneous forms of identity theft is ever-growing. If
identity thieves can find a way to benefit from using your stolen
18
information, they will. Common examples include government
benefits, Social Security payments, jobs, apartment rentals, student
loans, utility accounts, and much more.

TEXT B. Identity Theft
Recently, a series of identity thefts has affected our customers.
Unfortunately, this led to several instances of fraud occurring at
20
our bank. The best way to avoid these events is to be informed.
Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with some common
ways that criminals steal personal information.
Card scanning is one simple form of identity theft. This is
when someone uses a card scanner to record the information
stored on credit or debit cards. Card scanning can be used to collect passport information as well.
Email also presents opportunities for cyber thieves. Spam, or
unsolicited emails, can contain malware. This malicious software
includes spyware, Trojan horses, and worms that can infect one’s
computer and steal information. Phishing is also conducted over
email. This occurs when thieves trick people into giving them information by pretending to represent a legitimate business.
Pretexting is similar to phishing but is often done over the
phone. One of the most popular examples of pretexting attack is
when an unknown caller contacts a staff member and imitates the
CEO or someone in power to obtain sensitive information.
Pharming occurs when a hacker redirects someone to a site
operated by them. Pharming sets up a website that contains copies
of pages from a legitimate website in order to capture confidential
information from users, such as credit card, bank account, social

TEXT C. How Does Pharming Work?
Pharming, a portmanteau of the words ‘phishing’ and ‘farming’, is an online scam similar to phishing, where a website’s traffic is manipulated, and confidential information is stolen. In essence, it is the criminal act of producing a fake website and then
redirecting users to it.
These fake sites aim to capture a victim’s personally identifiable information (PII) and log-in credentials, such as passwords,
social security numbers, account numbers, and so on, or else they
attempt to install pharming malware on their computer. Pharmers
often target websites in the financial sector, including banks,
online payment platforms, or e-commerce sites, usually
with identity theft as their ultimate objective.
How does pharming work?
Pharming exploits the foundation of how internet browsing
works – namely, that the sequence of letters that form an internet
address, such as www.google.com, have to be converted into an IP
address by a DNS server for the connection to proceed.
Pharming attacks this process in one of two ways:
1. First, a hacker may send malicious code in an email which
installs a virus or Trojan on a user’s computer. This malicious
code changes the computer’s hosts file to direct traffic away from
its intended target and toward a fake website instead. In this form
of pharming – known as malware-based pharming – regardless of
whether you type the correct internet address, the corrupted hosts
file will take you to the fraudulent site instead.
2. Second, the hacker may use a technique called DNS poisoning. DNS stands for “Domain Name System” – pharmers can modify the DNS table in a server, causing multiple users to visit fake
websites instead of legitimate ones inadvertently. Pharmers can
24
use the fake websites to install viruses or Trojans on the user’s
computer or attempt to collect personal and financial information
for use in identity theft.
While DNS servers are harder to attack because they sit on an
organization’s network and behind its defenses, DNS poisoning
can affect a significant number of victims and therefore offer great
rewards for cybercriminals. Poisoning can also spread to other
DNS servers. Any internet service provider (ISP) receiving information from a poisoned server can lead to the corrupted DNS entry
being cached on the ISP’s servers – spreading it to more routers
and devices.
What makes pharming attacks such a dangerous form of online
fraud is that they require minimal action from the victim. In cases
of DNS server poisoning, the affected user can have a completely
malware-free computer and yet still become a victim. Even taking
precautions such as manually entering the website address or always using trusted bookmarks is not sufficient, because the misdirection happens after the computer sends a connection request.
Once pharmers have obtained your personal information, they
either use it themselves for fraudulent purposes or sell it to other
criminals on the dark web.

TEXT D. How to Protect Yourself Against Pharming
– Choose a reputable internet service provider (ISP). A
good ISP will filter out suspicious redirects by default – ensuring
you never reach a pharming website in the first place.
– Use a reliable DNS server. For most of us, our DNS server
will be our ISP. However, it is possible to switch to a specialized
DNS service, which could offer more security against DNS poisoning.
– Only follow links that begin with HTTPS – as opposed to
just HTTP. The “s” stands for “secure” and indicates that the site
has a valid security certificate. Once on the site, check for the padlock icon in the address bar – another indicator that the site is secure.
26
– Don’t click on links or open attachments from unknown
senders. While you can’t protect yourself from DNS poisoning,
you can take care to avoid the malicious software that enables
pharming. Avoid clicking on links or opening attachments in any
email or message you are unsure of.
– Check URLs for typos. Pharmers sometimes use spelling
tricks to deceive visitors, by replacing or adding letters to domain
names. Look at the URL closely and if you spot a typo – avoid it.
– Avoid suspicious-looking websites generally. Aside from
the URL, signs to look out for include spelling or grammatical errors, unfamiliar fonts or colors, and missing content – for example,
some pharmers don’t bother to populate the privacy policy or
terms and conditions. Check that everything is as you would expect before submitting any information.
– Avoid deals that appear too good to be true. Online
scammers sometimes lure victims with eye-catching deals – for
example, discounts much lower than the legitimate competition. If
offers seem implausible, then exercise caution.
– Enable two-factor authentication where possible. Many
platforms offer two-factor authentication, and when this is available, it’s a good idea to turn it on. This makes your accounts harder
to hack into – even if fraudsters have obtained your log-in details
through pharming, they won’t be able to access your account.
– Change the default settings of your Wi-Fi router. Changing the standard password and using a strong password instead for
your private network will help to protect you from DNS poisoning.
It is also essential to keep your router up to date. If your router
doesn’t have automatic updates, consider replacing it with one that
does.
– Use a robust anti-malware and antivirus solution and
keep it up to date. For example, Kaspersky Total Security protects you against hackers, viruses, and malware and works 24/7 to
secure your devices and data.
27
The best way to protect yourself from cybercrimes such as
pharming and phishing is through a combination of antivirus protection and following the latest cybersecurity best practices.

TEXT A. How Malware Spreads
Malware is any kind of software that is designed to harm a
computer. Malware can steal sensitive information from your
computer, gradually slow down your computer, or even send fake
emails from your email account without your knowledge. Here are
some common types of malware you might have heard about:
– Virus: A harmful computer program that can copy itself and
infect a computer.
– Worm: A malicious computer program that sends copies of
itself to other computers via a network.
– Spyware: Malware that collects information from people
without their knowledge.
– Adware: Software that automatically plays, displays, or
downloads advertisements on a computer.
– Trojan horse: A destructive program that pretends to be a
useful application, but harms your computer or steals your information after it is installed.
– A bot is a device that has been infected with malicious software to do something harmful without the user’s knowledge. Botnets are networks of these infected devices that work together under the control of an attacker. Botnets can be used to conduct
phishing campaigns, send out spam or used to carry out Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
Malware can get onto your computer in a number of different
ways. Here are some common examples:
– Downloading free software from the Internet that secretly
contains malware
– Downloading legitimate software that’s secretly bundled
with malware
– Visiting a website that’s infected with malware
– Clicking a fake error message or pop-up window that starts a
malware download
42
– Opening an email attachment that contains malware
There are a lot of different ways that malware can spread, but
that doesn’t mean you are powerless to stop it. To prevent your
devices from being infected with malware, there are a number of
steps you can take.

TEXT B. How to Prevent Malware
1. Keep your computer and software updated.
Microsoft and Apple often release updates for their operating
systems, and it is a good idea to install these updates when they
become available for your Windows and Mac computers. These
updates often include fixes that can improve the security of your
44
system. Some operating systems also offer automatic updates, so
that you can automatically get updates soon after they are available.ma
Windows users can install updates using a feature called "Windows Update," while Mac users can install updates using a feature
called "Software Update."
In addition to your computer’s operating system, your computer’s software should also be kept up to date with the latest versions. Newer versions often contain more security fixes to prevent
malware attacks.
2. Use a non-administrator account whenever possible.
Most operating systems allow you to create multiple user accounts on your computer, so that different users can have different
settings. These user accounts can also be set up to have different
security settings.
For example, an ‘admin’ (or ‘administrator’) account usually
has the ability to install new software, while ‘limited’ or ‘standard’
accounts usually don’t have the ability to do so. When doing dayto-day web browsing, you probably don’t need to install new software, so we suggest that you use a ‘limited’ or ‘standard’ user account whenever possible. Doing this can help prevent malware
from getting installed on your computer and making system-wide
changes.
3. Don’t click on suspicious links.
Phishing remains the easiest way for hackers to install malware
on your device. Phishing scams trick people into opening emails or
clicking on a link that may appear to come from a legitimate business or reputable source. The link may direct you to a fake website
where you are prompted to enter your personal details or take you
to a website that directly infects your computer with malware. If in
doubt, don’t click the link.
4. Don’t download attachments from unknown sources.
You should be wary if a random person sends you a suspicious
email containing attachments or images. Sometimes, those emails
45
might just be spam, but other times, those emails might secretly
contain harmful malware.
5. Don’t trust pop-up windows that ask you to download software. When surfing the web, you might come across sites that
show pop-up windows, making you believe your computer has
been infected and asking you to download some software in order
to protect yourself. Don’t fall for this trick. Just close the pop-up
window and make sure you don’t click inside the pop-up window.
6. Limit your file-sharing. Some sites and applications allow
you to easily share files with other users. Many of these sites and
applications offer little protection against malware. If you exchange or download files using these file-sharing methods, be on
the lookout for malware. Malware can often be disguised as a popular movie, album, game, or program.
7. Use antivirus software. If you need to download something,
you should use an antivirus program to scan that download for
malware before opening it. Antivirus software also allows you to
scan your entire computer for malware. It is a good idea to run
regular scans of your computer to catch malware early and prevent
it from spreading.
8. Install Firewall. A firewall prevents malicious attacks by
blocking all unauthorized access to or from a private computer
network. In addition to anti-virus software, a firewall provides an
extra barrier against malware, reducing the chance of attack.
9. Back up data regularly. It is important to back up on a regular basis to ensure that you can still retrieve all your valuable data
and files if your computer is infected with malware. This will help
mitigate any damage and ensure that you are not held victim to a
ransomware attack.
9. Find in the text the equivalents to the following word
combinations:

TEXT C. Keystroke Logging
Keystroke logging, often referred to as keylogging or keyboard capturing, is the action of recording (logging) the keys
struck on a keyboard, typically covertly, so that a person using the
keyboard is unaware that their actions are being monitored. Data
can then be retrieved by the person operating the logging program.
A keystroke recorder or keylogger can be either software or
hardware.
While the programs themselves are legal, with many designed
to allow employers to oversee the use of their computers, keyloggers are most often used for stealing passwords and other confidential information.
Keylogging can also be used to study keystroke dynamics or
human-computer interaction. Numerous keylogging methods exist,
ranging from hardware and software-based approaches to acoustic
cryptanalysis.
Many anti-spyware applications can detect some software
based keyloggers and quarantine, disable, or remove them. However, because many keylogging programs are legitimate pieces of
software under some circumstances, anti-spyware often neglects to
label keylogging programs as spyware or a virus. These applications can detect software-based keyloggers based on patterns
49
in executable code, heuristics and keylogger behaviors (such as the
use of hooks and certain APIs).
No software-based anti-spyware application can be 100% effective against all keyloggers. Software-based anti-spyware cannot
defeat non-software keyloggers (for example, hardware keyloggers
attached to keyboards will always receive keystrokes before any
software-based anti-spyware application).
The particular technique that the anti-spyware application uses
will influence its potential effectiveness against software keyloggers. As a general rule, anti-spyware applications with higher privileges will defeat keyloggers with lower privileges. For example, a
hook-based anti-spyware application cannot defeat a kernel-based
keylogger (as the keylogger will receive the keystroke messages
before the anti-spyware application), but it could potentially defeat
hook- and API-based keyloggers.
16. Find in the text the equivalents to the following word

19. Read Text D.
TEXT D. How Do Keyloggers Get on the User’s Computer?
When the user has an outdated antivirus, or when the antivirus
is turned off or if the user has not got it installed, keylogger finds
its way to reach the computer. Virus protection tools are to be kept
up-to-date and if not done, they cannot defend or deny such
keylogging activities.
Another possible way is that the keyloggers find a way
through .exe files. However, it is not possible to restrict or limit to
deny .exe files just to avoid keyloggers as most of the important
programs run through .exe files.
Programs That Can Remove a Keylogger Virus
There is a wide variety of protection software available both
free and paid to fit your specific requirements. Ensure there is an
updated Antivirus to drive away the keylogger.
A centralized approach to protecting all the endpoints – servers, laptops, desktops, smartphones and other IoT devices like
Comodo Endpoint Protection would help the users to fend against
such keylogging activities. It delivers total protection for corporate
networks when it is accessed through remote devices. It offers 7layer protection with containment technology, Web URL Filtering,
Firewall, Antivirus, Host Intrusion Prevention and Viruscope.
The best part of Comodo Endpoint Protection is the containment technology that works on Artificial Intelligence, it moves the
suspicious files to a virtual environment so it doesn’t interfere with
the normal operations of the computer. This is also combined with
a future-proof concept called viruscope that helps to analyze the
52
suspicious files while it generates a report for the user to understand about the actions and processes of the suspicious files. By
this way, users can certainly stay ahead of threats like keylogger
malware.
20. Find in the text the equivalents to the following word
combinations:
1) Устаревший антивирус; 2) инструменты защиты от

большинство важных программ запускаются через файлы
.exe.; 5) удалить вирус Keylogger; 6) установлен обновленный
антивирус, чтобы избавиться от кейлоггера; 7) полная защита
корпоративных сетей при доступе к ним через удаленные
устройства; 8) 7-уровневая защита с технологией

TEXT A. What is Antivirus?
Originally, an antivirus program was a piece of software that
detected and sometimes removed computer viruses from infected
devices, whereby it also helped stop further propagation of the malicious content. That was mostly in the 1990s and in the beginning
67
of the 2000s. However, with the dramatic growth in numbers of
malware in other categories, antivirus programs have evolved into
complex security solutions.
To ensure their users’ security, most contemporary protective
products use multiple technologies. These allow them to combat a
wide range of malicious activities, such as spying, keylogging,
credential stealing, unauthorized cryptocurrency mining, unwanted
encryption of files (by ransomware), information extraction (by
banking Trojans), spam and scams as well as other forms of
cyberattacks.
Antivirus software begins operating by checking your computer programs and files against a database of known types of
malware. Since new viruses are constantly created and distributed
by hackers, it will also scan computers for the possibility of new or
unknown type of malware threats.
Typically, most programs will use three different detection
devices: specific detection, which identifies known malware; generic detection, which looks for known parts or types of malware
or patterns that are related by a common codebase; and heuristic
detection, which scans for unknown viruses by identifying known
suspicious file structures. When the program finds a file that contains a virus, it will usually quarantine it and/or mark it for deletion, making it inaccessible and removing the risk to your device.

TEXT C. How Does Antivirus Software Detect and Remove
Viruses and Malware?
Different types of internet threats resulting from various
online activities – email, link clicking, web surfing, file or app
transfers or downloads, and webcam video recording and calling –
require different antivirus solutions. These include, but aren’t limited to:
Signature Analysis: Signature-based analysis is similar to
fingerprinting and is one of the most common types of antivirus
threat detection. All antivirus software vendors compile and constantly update a database of identified threats, known as "virus definitions," from files and suspicious websites. Antivirus programs
compare the fingerprint, or "signature," of a detected potential
threat against the analyzed threats in this database and respond accordingly when there is a match.
Heuristic Analysis: Many hackers understand signaturebased tools and know how to disguise their malicious code. In response, some antivirus software also uses a so-called heuristic approach. Often described as a sophisticated trial-and-error method,
heuristic-based analysis works to identify suspicious characteristics in an otherwise unrecognizable file that might match those of
known malware.
Sandbox Detection: Some potentially malicious code is so
well disguised or encrypted that it escapes signature and heuristic
detection. Thus, if an encrypted file seems even vaguely suspicious, some antivirus software will open and run it in a "sandbox."
This sandbox is a secure area inside the software that the antivirus
program uses to determine if the file is innocuous or malicious
without damaging your computer.
Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence: As hackers have
learned to adapt, antivirus software vendors have developed more
sophisticated machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies to identify new techniques hackers use to disguise their work.
72
The software then adds information about these new threats to its
detection database. As it collects more information, the software
becomes better at detecting previously unknown malware.
Behavior Monitoring: "Generally speaking, behavior monitoring watches the traffic between your computer and various devices – external hard drives, USB thumb drives, networked computers, printers, etc. – to stop them when they do something suspicious," says John Hawes, CEO of the international nonprofit AntiMalware Testing Standards Organization (AMTSO). If necessary,
antivirus software can undo any changes these external devices
make.

TEXT D. Can Antivirus Software Stop Hackers?
Because antivirus software vendors are almost always playing
defense against hackers, behaving judiciously online and using antivirus software will never protect you 100 %. "There are plenty of
successful threats out there, and the industry isn’t winning," admits
Simon Edwards, CEO of security testing company SE Labs. He
continues, "I recently found myself tricked by one, so even the experts fall for them sometimes!"
Hackers’ primary point of attack – one that antivirus software
is powerless against – is prompting careless user behavior. Instead
of trying to stealthily plant a malicious file, more and more hackers try to get you to give up your information or provide a way into
your computer. To do this, they send emails with malware-laden
attachments or links to bogus websites to trick you into clicking
on, downloading, or navigating to something harmful. This process
is what Hawes describes as "obfuscation" – files or "hiding what
they’re doing, pretending to be something else" and "trying to look
harmless or even useful." As a result, never open attachments or
click on links in emails sent by people you don’t know.
There are other ways to stop hackers, as well. For instance,
most legitimate websites employ TLS (transport layer security)
encryption to prevent eavesdropping. "TLS is good for users’ privacy and bad for people wanting to snoop on web sessions," according to Simon. Secure website addresses (URLs) using TLS
begin with "HTTPS" rather than "HTTP." Avoid downloading
files from or sending private information through sites that begin
with "HTTP."
In addition, most antivirus software includes a "firewall" designed, like a real wall, to keep your computer safe from malicious
online intrusions. However, most operating systems and internet
routers include their own firewalls, which makes antivirus software firewalls largely redundant.
74
If you’re thinking about buying a particular brand of antivirus
software, first check the company’s privacy policies and terms of
service or end-user licensing agreement. Make sure you are comfortable with whatever data the software collects and access permissions it requires.
Second, viruses and other threats are designed to attack specific platforms and operating systems. Because you likely own multiple devices running different operating systems, such as a Windows computer and an Android phone or an iPhone, look for antivirus software that offers multiple platform protections for multiple devices.
Finally, choose antivirus software that provides comprehensive protection, regardless of a threat’s type, source, or purpose.
Choosing free antivirus software such as Windows Defender or
free stripped-down software from other vendors could come back
to bite you. "Some free products have fewer features like [cloud]
backup, a password manager, etc., and some free products even
have fewer security features," says AV-Comparatives’ Stelzhammer.

1. Antivirus software isn’t one thing, but rather a package of
evolving defense mechanisms designed to _______ your computer
against the constant barrage of known, unknown, and ever-shifting
malicious threats devised by hackers, trolls, and cybercriminals.
2. However, "antivirus" is a misnomer. Viruses are merely one
type of malware, and malware is only one type of an exploding
number of internet security threats. "It is like an elephant: Each
elephant is gray, but not everything that’s gray is an elephant,"
says Peter Stelzhammer, co-founder of independent _______ testing lab AV-Comparatives.
3. Malware is the ________ term for every malicious threat.
4. So, you have worms, viruses, ransomware, and much more,
and all of it is malware. ‘Virus is only used as a marketing term,
and usually a threat is a combination of several techniques." For
the sake of simplicity, all U.S. News guides use the term "antivirus
software" to refer to ________ that addresses all types of online
security threats.
5. Antivirus software constantly scans your computer for
threats from emails, web surfing, and app and software downloads,
to make sure everything you do and ________ online is free from
potentially harmful code.
6. Once a problem is detected, the software will warn you
about it, block you from accessing a suspicious file or website, or
________ the threat.

When does cloud computing rely on?
TEXT A. Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer
system resources, especially data storage (cloud storage) and computing power, without direct active management by the user. The
term is generally used to describe data centers available to many
users over the Internet. Large clouds, predominant today, often
have functions distributed over multiple locations from central servers. If the connection to the user is relatively close, it may
be designated an edge server.
Clouds may be limited to a single organization (enterprise
clouds), or be available to multiple organizations (public cloud).
Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.
Advocates of public and hybrid clouds note that cloud computing allows companies to avoid or minimize up-front IT infrastructure costs. Proponents also claim that cloud computing allows enterprises to get their applications up and running faster, with improved manageability and less maintenance, and that it enables IT
teams to more rapidly adjust resources to meet fluctuating and unpredictable demand, providing the burst computing capability:
high computing power at certain periods of peak demand.
Cloud providers typically use a "pay-as-you-go" model, which
can lead to unexpected operating expenses if administrators are not
familiarized with cloud-pricing models.
The availability of high-capacity networks, low-cost computers and storage devices as well as the widespread adoption of
hardware virtualization, service-oriented architecture and autonomic and utility computing has led to growth in cloud computing.
As of 2017, most cloud computers run a Linux-based operating
system.

What is Iaas?
TEXT B. Service Models. Infrastructure as a Service
Though service-oriented architecture advocates "Everything as
a service" (with the acronyms EaaS or XaaS, or simply aas),
cloud-computing providers offer their "services" according to different models, of which the three standard models per NIST are
– Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS),
– Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
– Software as a Service (SaaS).
These models offer increasing abstraction; they are thus often
portrayed as layers in a stack: infrastructure-, platform- and software-as-a-service, but these need not be related. For example, one
can provide SaaS implemented on physical machines (bare metal),
without using underlying PaaS or IaaS layers, and conversely one
94
can run a program on IaaS and access it directly, without wrapping
it as SaaS.
Infrastructure as a service "Infrastructure as a service"
(IaaS) refers to online services that provide high-level APIs used
to abstract various low-level details of underlying network infrastructure like physical computing resources, location, data partitioning, scaling, security, backup, etc. A hypervisor runs the virtual machines as guests. Pools of hypervisors within the cloud operational system can support large numbers of virtual machines and
the ability to scale services up and down according to customers’
varying requirements. Linux containers run in isolated partitions of
a single Linux kernel running directly on the physical hardware.
Linux cgroups and namespaces are the underlying Linux kernel
technologies used to isolate, secure and manage the containers.
Containerisation offers higher performance than virtualization because there is no hypervisor overhead. IaaS clouds often offer additional resources such as a virtual-machine disk-image library,
raw block storage, file or object storage, firewalls, load balancers,
IP addresses, virtual local area networks (VLANs), and software
bundles.
The NIST‘s definition of cloud computing describes IaaS as
"where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software,
which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, and deployed
applications; and possibly limited control of select networking
components (e.g., host firewalls).
IaaS-cloud providers supply these resources on-demand from their
large pools of equipment installed in data centers. For wide-area
connectivity, customers can use either the Internet or carrier clouds
(dedicated virtual private networks). To deploy their applications,
cloud users install operating-system images and their application
software on the cloud infrastructure. In this model, the cloud user
patches and maintains the operating systems and the application
software. Cloud providers typically bill IaaS services on a utility
95
computing basis: cost reflects the amount of resources allocated
and consumed.

TEXT C. Platform as a Service (PaaS)
The NIST‘s definition of cloud computing defines Platform as
a Service as:
The capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the
cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications
created using programming languages, libraries, services, and tools
supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers,
operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed
applications and possibly configuration settings for the application-hosting environment.
PaaS vendors offer a development environment to application
developers. The provider typically develops toolkit and standards
for development and channels for distribution and payment. In the
PaaS models, cloud providers deliver a computing platform, typically including operating system, programming-language execution environment, database, and web server. Application developers develop and run their software on a cloud platform instead of
directly buying and managing the underlying hardware and software layers. With some PaaS, the underlying computer and storage
97
resources scale automatically to match application demand so that
the cloud user does not have to allocate resources manually.
Some integration and data management providers also use
specialized applications of PaaS as delivery models for data. Examples include iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) and
dPaaS (Data Platform as a Service). iPaaS enables customers to
develop, execute and govern integration flows. Under the iPaaS
integration model, customers drive the development and deployment of integrations without installing or managing any hardware
or middleware. dPaaS delivers integration – and data-management
– products as a fully managed service. Under the dPaaS model, the
PaaS provider, not the customer, manages the development and
execution of programs by building data applications for the customer. dPaaS users access data through data-visualization tools.

19. Read Text D and answer the question.
What are the advantages of SaaS?
Text D. Software as a Service (SaaS)
The NIST‘s definition of cloud computing defines Software as
a Service as:
The capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider’s applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through either a
thin client interface, such as a web browser (e.g., web-based
email), or a program interface. The consumer does not manage or
control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network,
servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application
capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific
application configuration settings.
In the software as a service (SaaS) model, users gain access to
application software and databases. Cloud providers manage the
infrastructure and platforms that run the applications. SaaS is
sometimes referred to as "on-demand software" and is usually
priced on a pay-per-use basis or using a subscription fee. In the
99
SaaS model, cloud providers install and operate application software in the cloud and cloud users access the software from cloud
clients. Cloud users do not manage the cloud infrastructure and
platform where the application runs. This eliminates the need to
install and run the application on the cloud user’s own computers,
which simplifies maintenance and support. Cloud applications differ from other applications in their scalability – which can be
achieved by cloning tasks onto multiple virtual machines at runtime to meet changing work demand. Load balancers distribute the
work over the set of virtual machines. This process is transparent
to the cloud user, who sees only a single access-point. To accommodate a large number of cloud users, cloud applications can be
multitenant, meaning that any machine may serve more than one
cloud-user organization.
The pricing model for SaaS applications is typically a monthly
or yearly flat fee per user, so prices become scalable and adjustable
if users are added or removed at any point. It may also be free.
Proponents claim that SaaS gives a business the potential to reduce
IT operational costs by outsourcing hardware and software
maintenance and support to the cloud provider. This enables the
business to reallocate IT operations costs away from hardware/software spending and from personnel expenses, towards
meeting other goals. In addition, with applications hosted centrally, updates can be released without the need for users to install
new software. One drawback of SaaS comes with storing the users’ data on the cloud provider’s server. As a result, there could be
unauthorized access to the data. Examples of applications offered
as SaaS are games and productivity software like Google Docs and
Word Online. SaaS applications may be integrated with cloud
storage or File hosting services, which is the case with Google
Docs being integrated with Google Drive and Word Online being
integrated with Onedrive.

TEXT A. A System Administrator
A system administrator, or sysadmin, is a person who is responsible for the upkeep, configuration, and reliable operation of
computer systems; especially multi-user computers, such as servers. The system administrator seeks to ensure that the uptime, performance, resources, and security of the computers they manage
meet the needs of the users, without exceeding a set budget when
doing so.
To meet these needs, a system administrator may acquire, install, or upgrade computer components and software; provide routine automation; maintain security policies; troubleshoot; train or
supervise staff; or offer technical support for projects.
Many organizations staff offer jobs related to system administration. In a larger company, these may all be separate positions
within a computer support or Information Services (IS) department. In a smaller group they may be shared by a few sysadmins,
or even a single person.
– A database administrator (DBA) maintains a database system, and is responsible for the integrity of the data and the efficiency and performance of the system.
– A network administrator maintains network infrastructure
such as switches and routers, and diagnoses problems with these or
with the behavior of network-attached computers.
– A security administrator is a specialist in computer and network security, including the administration of security devices
119
such as firewalls, as well as consulting on general security
measures.
– A web administrator maintains web server services (such as
Apache or IIS) that allow for internal or external access to web
sites. Tasks include managing multiple sites, administering security, and configuring necessary components and software. Responsibilities may also include software change management.
– A computer operator performs routine maintenance and upkeep, such as changing backup tapes or replacing failed drives in a
redundant array of independent disks (RAID). Such tasks usually
require physical presence in the room with the computer, and
while less skilled than sysadmin tasks, may require a similar level
of trust, since the operator has access to possibly sensitive data.
– An SRE Site Reliability Engineer – takes a software engineering or programmatic approach to managing systems.

People skills are necessary as sysadmins deal with end users
who don’t know much about IT. Such users need to be guided in a
concise and clear manner.
Patience is another great quality in this role because it involves
handling tasks that need concentration and much time to complete.
Besides, the willingness to learn and being a team player are
other vital qualities in system administration.
3. What is Windows Deployment Services (WDS)?
Sample Answer WDS is a server role that offers the ability to
remotely deploy Windows operating systems. It can be used to set
up new computers in network-based installations so that each operating system doesn’t have to be installed.
4. What is the advantage of using RAID?
Sample Answer A RAID is a virtualization data storage technology that integrates multiple components of a physical disk drive
into a single or several logical units. The advantage of using RAID
128
is that it increases a system’s storage capacity, improves overall
performance, and offers fault tolerance.
5. Define DHCP and Explain its Importance
Sample Answer Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol or
DHCP is a protocol that is used to automatically assign dynamic IP
addresses to computers or other devices on a network. This means
a device acquires a new IP address every time it’s connected to the
network. The benefit of DHCP is that it reduces operation tasks
such that a sysadmin doesn’t have to manually configure each device. Besides, the protocol optimizes the IP addressing plan meaning that unused addresses are made available to new devices or
clients.
6. What three attributes make you a Great Systems Administrator?
Sample Answer I am curious and analytical. I always explore a
problem to find out what really caused it. If the root cause of an
issue is not identified and resolved, the problem will reoccur and
hurt the business. Besides, I am a good communicator with the
ability to share insights in a jargon-free language.
7. Is it a good idea to restore a DC that was backed up 7
months ago?
Sample Answer Restoring a domain controller that was last
backed up 7 months ago is a bad idea. This is because lingering
objects are likely to be encountered that will lead to inconsistent
data. The general rule is that backup files shouldn’t be more than
180 days old.
8. Briefly tell us about your technical background
Sample Answer I graduated four years ago with a bachelor’s
degree in computer science. Besides, I have earned a CompTIA
certification and also worked mainly in the area of server and PC
installation. In my previous assignments, I have been esteemed for
identifying faulty machines early on and providing lasting solutions.
9. What are you proud of in your working with endpoint systems and offering support to users?
129
Sample Answer I am especially proud of being able to identify
users’ problems and resolve them effectively using appropriate
tools. My clients as well as the users I have supported have often
referred their friends to me to help them resolve their computer
issues. I always resolve issues without taking much of my clients’
time.
10. What is an active directory?
Sample Answer An active directory offers centralized control
for network security and administration. It stores all settings and
information in a central database and enables a system administrator to deploy and update software as well as assign policies. Server
computers that are configured with an active directory are called
domain controllers.
11. What is a Domain?
Sample Answer A domain consists of a group of network objects that are organized logically and share the database of a single
active directory. These objects include users, computers, and network devices among others.
12. Differentiate a gateway from a router.
Sample Answer Basically, a router is a layer-3 device that
functions by forwarding data packets between networks. On the
internet, a router directs traffic. On the other hand, a gateway is a
network device that functions as an entrance to a network.
13. Which port is used to perform a ping command?
Sample Answer The ping command utilized ICMP, which
doesn’t use TCP or UDP communication services. In particular, it
makes use of the ICMP echo packets and echo requests.
14. Explain the Proc File system.
Sample Answer The proc file system or procfs is a special file
system in Linux operating systems that offer an interface to the
kernel data structures. Although majority of files in this file system
are read-only, some are writable meaning that they permit kernel
variables to be altered. Besides, procfs have a hierarchy of special
files that reflect the kernel’s current state.
130
15. What do you understand by forests and trees in system administration?
Sample Answer A tree consists of a collection of one or several
domains or domain trees that are found in a contiguous namespace,
which is connected in a transitive trust hierarchy.
On the other hand, a forest refers to a tree collection, which
shares a common global catalog, directory configuration, logical
structure, and directory schema.
16. What is the difference between NTFS and FAT?
Sample Answer NTFS refers to the current file system utilized
by Windows. This file system offers various features including
security permissions, back up, and quotas so that one can fill up a
disk.
FAT is an older file system developed by Microsoft that was
chiefly used in Windows operating systems up to the XP version.
FAT doesn’t offer most of the key features including security and
back up that are provided by NTFS.
17. Differentiate an antivirus from a firewall.
Sample Answer An antivirus is a program that is designed to
protect a computer from viruses. Once installed on a computer, an
antivirus monitors the system continuously to identify any threat
from the internet, external storage devices, or other sources.
A firewall consists of a program that protects a system from
hackers, intruders, or outsiders. Attacks from these sources may be
viruses or unauthorized access intended to steal or destroy sensitive and valuable information. Firewalls come either as software or
hardware. A software firewall is installed on a computer while organizations install a hardware firewall to safeguard all their systems.
18. What do you understand by VOIP?
Sample Answer VOIP is an acronym for Voice Over Internet
Protocol. It is a category of software and hardware that helps people in using the internet as a medium of transmission for telephone
calls. This is accomplished by forwarding data in packets through
an IP instead of the traditional circuit transmissions.
131
19. Explain how a tracert works.
Sample Answer Tracert or traceroute consists of a commandline tool that can be initiated using a prompt. It is used to track the
path taken by IP packets to their destination. A Tracert command
tracks a route by sending ICMP echo packets to a given destination. In the end, the command helps you determine where the chain
of connection stops.
20. As a system administrator, is team work part of your typical day?
Sample Answer As a sysadmin, I would often provide technical support to teams and end-users. This may involve software
installation, technical troubleshooting, or other technical duties
associated with the role. Thus, I would not be engaged directly in
teamwork. However, I would work with teams occasionally in developing and explaining technological strategies.
