OKR: Objectives and Key Results
OKR is a goal-setting framework that helps organizations, teams, and individuals define clear objectives and track measurable outcomes to assess progress. An OKR consists of two key parts:
- Objective: A clear, inspiring, and ambitious statement that describes what you want to achieve. It sets the direction and aligns with the organization’s goals.
- Key Results: Specific, measurable outcomes that indicate whether the objective has been achieved. These are time-bound and

SQL Injection Attack Types
Direct Attack: An attacker (Eve) sends a malicious request directly to the server (Bank.com).
Cross-Site: Alice has two tabs open: a sensitive site (Bank) and a malicious site (Evil.com). The malicious site tries to influence the sensitive one.
Third-Party: A legitimate site (News.com) loads an advertisement from a malicious domain (EvilAds.com).
Cookie Security and Session Hijacking
Mechanism: HTTP is stateless. To “remember” Alice,

Detector Arrays and Sensor Calibration
1. Pushbroom Architecture: Pushbroom scanners use CCD or CMOS arrays consisting of thousands of detectors aligned perpendicular to the flight direction. Each detector continuously images a specific ground pixel line as the satellite moves forward.
2. Detector Material Types: Silicon CCD is used for visible/NIR (0.4–1.1 µm), InGaAs for SWIR (1–1.7 µm), and Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) for thermal infrared. Each material has a different quantum efficiency
