Q1227563 Inglês
  Someone on your left speaks French and someone on your right speaks English; both individuals need to speak to each other. The systems analyst is the middleman, assessing the needs of the end-user and translating them into programming or turning over the programming responsibility to the development department. What are the business requirements? Who will comprise the user community? How large is the application going to be? Will it be internal or external? These are all questions facing the systems analyst, who spends much of the day in front of the computer poring over these issues.    With a new product, other elements come into play, such as network location, user community, type of machine, and portability. If the analyst is reviewing an established product, the user community will dictate its changes and enhancements. "One of the biggest surprises in my 25 years of technology work is that people who have a creative background as opposed to a degree in computer science tend to make better systems analysts," says one seasoned professional. "The best analysts I've come across came from backgrounds in theater, art, and filmmaking. But they were all able to see and grasp big-picture concepts very quickly, and break them down into subcomponents. People who have a computer science or math background tend to be very technical, and sometimes that can be a hindrance." Systems analysts need to be independent thinkers – people who can "think out of the box" by grasping concepts quickly and seeing the big picture as opposed to the small details. "I also look for someone who is self-motivated. Here take the ball and run with it and come back if you have any issues," says one employer who heads up a technology group.

Q1224227 Inglês
Windows 2000 suffers millennium bug Malicious code execution possible thanks to flaw. Matthew Broersma, Techworld  22 April 2005 

Microsoft has confirmed a security flaw in Windows 2000 that could allow attackers to execute malicious code via Windows Explorer and other programs.  The flaw, involving a problem in the way the webvw.dll library validates document metadata, was disclosed earlier this week by security firm GreyMagic. The flaw could be exploited by distributing a malicious file which, when selected in Windows Explorer, could execute malicious script commands. More dangerously, an attacker could exploit the bug via a document on a remote SMB share, GreyMagic said.  "Script commands that are injected in this manner will execute as soon as the malicious file is selected in Windows Explorer and will be executed in a trusted context, which means they will have the ability to perform any action the currently logged on user can perform," GreyMagic said in its advisory. "This includes reading, deleting and writing files, as well as executing arbitrary commands." Microsoft has confirmed that it is investigating the flaw, and as usual stated that it is not aware that any customers have been affected so far. The company has also criticised GreyMagic for posting proof-of-concept code along with its advisory. Stephen Toulouse of Microsoft's Security Response Center (MSRC), in a message posted on the Microsoft TechNet website, downplayed the danger posed by the flaw. "Significant user interaction would be required for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability," he wrote. Any attack would rely on Server Message Block (SMB) communication, which customers should block at the firewall level as a best practice, Toulouse said. No patch exists, but users can protect themselves by disabling the "Web view" option in Windows Explorer, Microsoft said. The company said it may patch the bug once its investigation is complete. The flaw affects Windows 2000 Professional, Server and Advanced Server versions, GreyMagic said. The affected library, webvw.dll, is used in displaying information in Windows Explorer's preview pane, which is enabled by default in Windows 2000 systems. An input-validation bug means an attacker could inject script commands into the "author" metadata field of a document, which could be executed when the metadata is processed by webvw.dll. Other applications using the library are also affected, GreyMagic said. "The malicious file does not need to be executed in order to activate the exploit, double-clicking is not required," the firm said in its advisory. "The exploitation takes place as soon as the file is selected."  GreyMagic said it first notified Microsoft of the flaw on 18 January.

Q1212027 Inglês
Because we live next door to the United States of America and share some of their programming and commercials, most1 moviegoers in Ontario are probably more familiar with the American system than our home-grown one. However, our systems are very different.   Films and trailers are classified in the United States of America by the Rating Board of the Motion Picture Association4 of America (MPAA), located in Los Angeles.  This industry-sponsored Rating Board consists of 13 members who serve for varying periods of time.  There are no special qualifications for Board membership except for having a shared parenthood experience, an intelligent maturity, and an ability to put themselves in the role of most American parents. The Board is funded7 through fees charged to producers and distributors for the ratings of their films.   The MPAA Rating Board members, like those of the Ontario Film Review Board (OFRB), do not classify movies on personal judgements of quality.  Their judgements are based on specific guidelines in areas including theme, violence, language,10 nudity, sexuality, drug use, and others.  Like the OFRB, they consider the film in its entirety, and take context into account in classification decisions.    The first main area of difference between the Ontario classification system and the American one is that the OFRB is a13 government body established by statute that requires distributors to submit their films for classification.  In the United States of America, the rating system is a voluntary one that is administered by the movie industry through the MPAA.
