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 is 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 Infelmax’s notoriously secure system in 1999, they made headline news around the world. The big “successes” came with a major drawback. These headline break-ins 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 the 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. TaiLieu.VN Page 6 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 do 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 will surely wish you had changed your password once more often. 43/ The phrase sitting duck for hackers most probably means: A. target to be attacked by hackers in the future. B. bench of a duck shape available for hackers to sit on. C duck which is sitting near or among hackers D. duck which conducts hackers to their desired seats 44/ What might have been one motive for hackers of Infelmax’s network ? A. Money B. Fun C. Power D. Fame 45/ What has happened to some big-name hackers ? A. They’ve got better jobs. B. They are in jails C They continue to be hackers D. They are in debt. 46/ Which is likely a victim for the new breed of hackers ? A. Large companies B. International companies C Companies without security systems D. Small companies 47/ Why are modern hackers no longer interested in big companies? A. They have less money than small ones. B. They have become more dangerous to hack. C They don’t have much interesting data as before. D. They don’t have ability to break into big companies. TaiLieu.VN Page 7 48/ What is not mentioned as a result of hackers’ work ? A. Stolen soft wares B. Ruined files C. Jumbled data D. Replicated documents C-Fill in each gap with ONE suitable word: ( 2 points ) I was with Overseas Volunteers ( OV ) for a year after leaving university, and I was………………………….( 49 ) to an isolated village in Chad, about 500 km from the capital N’Djamena.
