  2. Smurf Amplifier Registry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smurf_Amplifier_Registry

    The Smurf Amplifier Registry is a blacklist of networks on the Internet which have been misconfigured in such a way that they can be used, as smurf amplifiers for smurf denial of service attacks. It can probe networks for vulnerability to smurf amplification, and then will either add them to its database, or remove them from the database ...

  3. Radioactive contamination from the Rocky Flats Plant

    [11]: 13 It initially had an area of 4 sq mi (10 km 2); a 4,600 acres (19 km 2) buffer zone was added in 1972. [11]: 12 Construction of the first buildings began on July 10, 1951. Production of parts for nuclear weapons began in 1953. At the time, the precise nature of the work at Rocky Flats was a closely guarded secret.

  4. Climate change vulnerability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_vulnerability

    Climate change vulnerability is defined as the "propensity or predisposition to be adversely affected" by climate change. It can apply to humans but also to natural systems , and both are interdependent. [1]: 12 Vulnerability is a component of climate risk. Vulnerability will be higher if the capacity to cope and adapt is low. [1]: 5

  5. OpenVAS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenVAS

    OpenVAS (Open Vulnerability Assessment Scanner, originally known as GNessUs) is the scanner component of Greenbone Vulnerability Management (GVM), a software framework of several services and tools offering vulnerability scanning and vulnerability management. [2]

    They were able to factor 0.2% of the keys using only Euclid's algorithm. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] They exploited a weakness unique to cryptosystems based on integer factorization . If n = pq is one public key and n ′ = p ′ q ′ is another, then if by chance p = p ′ , then a simple computation of gcd( n , n ′) = p factors both n and n ′, totally ...

  7. Nuclear safety and security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_safety_and_security

    A clean-up crew working to remove radioactive contamination after the Three Mile Island accident. Nuclear safety is defined by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as "The achievement of proper operating conditions, prevention of accidents or mitigation of accident consequences, resulting in protection of workers, the public and the environment from undue radiation hazards".

  8. Climate Vulnerability Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_Vulnerability_Index

    The Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI), also referred to as Climate Change Vulnerability Index (CCVI), is a tool that identifies places that are susceptible to floods and heat-related effects of climate change by combining built, social, and ecological elements. [1] [2] It is also described as a systematic tool to rapidly assess climate change ...

  9. Market for zero-day exploits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_for_zero-day_exploits

    Exploits are digital products, which means that they are information goods with near-zero marginal production costs. [7] However, they are atypical information goods. Unlike e-books or digital videos, they do not lose their value because they are easy to replicate but due to the fact that once they are exposed, the original developer will "patch" the vulnerability, decreasing the value of the ...
