Last Paper of Semester 1

Today, I'm going to take the last test paper for this semester. It's on the internet security subject, basically, CIA or Confidentiality, Integrity and Available, actually, two more, Authentication and Access control.

The cryptography topics are the toughest to understand, the hash, symmetric and asymmetric encryption. Terms like DES, 3DES, AES, ECB, CBC, OFB, and other definitions and concepts that I need to understand.

I just hope that the test is not difficult, because I really can't understand and digest all that I read.

Prep for tests

It has been quite a while since I took a test, and for the next 2 week, I will be taking 3 tests.

I hope to study enough to understand, so that I will be able to pass the tests with good results. One of the tests is on e-commerce concepts, heaps of memory work to do. Next, a web programming paper, open book, I don't know whether I can survive this one. The last one  is on security, this one is really tough, private key, public key, DES, 3DES, AES, OFB, etc. I have got to understand them and drill it in my miniature brain. The tutor taught the subject like so easy, but, it is not that so to people like me.

Well, good luck to me, probably I wouldn't be able to write here for the next 2 weeks, let me clear my tests first.
