Understanding Network Security Architecture and Protocols
Vocabulary
Network Architecture
Security Perimeter: First line of protection, includes firewalls, proxies, and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS).
Network Partitioning: Segmenting networks into isolated domains of trust.
Dual-Homed Hosts: Having two network interface cards (NICs), each on a separate network.
Bastion Host: Gateway between trusted and untrusted networks that gives limited authorized access to untrusted hosts.
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ): Isolated subnet that allows an organization to give external

Shift-Reduce Parser Implementation (EXP-6)
This section demonstrates a shift-reduce parser implementation in C++.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
int z = 0, i = 0, j = 0, c = 0;
char a[16], ac[20], stk[15], act[10];
void check() {
strcpy(ac, "REDUCE TO E -> ");
for (z = 0; z < c; z++) {
if (stk[z] == '4') {
cout << ac << "4" << endl;
stk[z] = 'E';
stk[z + 1] = '\0';

Understanding Computer Networks
A network is a group of interconnected devices which exchange information and share resources.
Network Components
- Server: A main computer that provides a service on a network.
- Client: A network computer used for accessing a service on a server.

Independent Components
This architectural style focuses on systems that operate as loosely coupled components. Components interact with each other through defined interfaces, ensuring flexibility and modularity.
Communicating Processes: In this style, independent processes exchange information through messages. These processes can run concurrently, making the system scalable and robust.
Client/Server: This is a widely used architecture where clients request services or resources from a server. The

1. System vs. Application Software
System software includes programs like operating systems (e.g., Windows, Linux) that manage hardware and basic functionalities. Application software is designed for specific user tasks, such as word processing (MS Word) or browsing the internet (Google Chrome).
2. Data Collection Methods
- Primary: Gathering data firsthand through surveys, interviews, or experiments.
- Secondary: Using pre-existing sources like books, reports, or online data.
3. Malicious Software (Malware)

JavaBeans: Components & Core Concepts
JavaBeans are reusable software components that adhere to a specific set of conventions and guidelines defined by Sun Microsystems (now Oracle). They are essentially Java classes that encapsulate data and functionality, making them easily accessible and manageable. JavaBeans follow the principle of “Write Once, Run Anywhere” and can be integrated seamlessly into various Java development frameworks.
- Reusability: JavaBeans are designed to be reusable, enabling
