Is your company a sitting duck for hackers? When did you last change your password? How complete are your security systems? Have you ever been broken into before? According to IANS, the International Association for Network Security, there’s a new breed of hackers out there. And, there’s also a new target. In the past, hackers gained notoriety from breaking into big companies’ networks. In fact, the bigger the company, the bigger the success. when hackers broke into Informix’s notoriously secure system 1999, they made headline news around the world. The big “success” came with a major drawback. This headline break-in came with international teams of investigators and serious criminal charges. Several former famous hackers are now sitting behind bars or working overtime to pay off hefty fines in penalties and damages. So, hackers of a new decade have turned to a new target: smaller companies. Smaller companies often spend less on their security systems. if they have never been broken into before, they may be lulled into a feeling of security. They are often lax about changing their password frequently enough. And that spells trouble. Also, a breach system in a smaller company may attract little public attention. Investigations may be brief and superficial, as overloaded investigators pursue bigger problems. But if you fall victim to hackers, it will definitely attract your own attention. These thieves can gain access to your files, destroying, copying, or altering them. They can create havoc with your data. And if they do, you’ll surely wish you had changed your password once more often. Câu 1: The phrase “sitting duck for hackers” at the beginning of the passage most probably means _______.

As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States, researchers have become increasingly interested in identifying the potential risk factors that trigger heart attacks. High-fat diets and ‘life in the fast lane” have long been known to contribute to the high incidence of heart failure. But according to new studies, the list of risk factors may be significantly longer and quite surprising. Heart failure, for example appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns. A higher percentage of heart attacks occur in cold weather, and more people experience heart failure on Monday than on any other day of the week. In addition, people are more susceptible to heart attacks in the first few hours after waking. Cardiologists first observed this morning phenomenon in the mid-1980s and have since discovered a number of possible causes. An early-morning rise in blood pressure, heart rate, and concentration of heart-stimulating hormones, plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart, may all contribute to the higher incidence of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00 A.M and 10 A.M. In other studies, both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated as risk factors. Statistics reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly for both females and males in the few days immediately preceding and following their birthdays. And unmarried men are more at risk for heart attacks than their married counterparts. Though stress is thought to be linked in some way to all of the aforementioned risk factors, intense research continues in the hope of further comprehending why and how heart failure is triggered.
