So these past 2 weeks we have been learning about "Privacy".
Oh yes, something that made me awake for the entire meeting, why? Because you see some videos on Youtube like, "We have the rights!" "Get out of my privacy!" and so on.
Privacy in my understanding is all about the ability of a person or a group's information and rights.
This day we were learning the different kinds of Laws that would be affecting this privacy.
Some examples are like cyber-law, statutory law, administrative law, common law, civil law, criminal law, etc.
After learning the simple known laws and its meanings, our professor gave us an "easy exercise" he says. Our problem was this, we knew what are the laws and rights of the exercise that Sir gave us. But the problem was as a group was that whether he would win or lose about his privacy. The debate went for a few minutes until we settled into a law that would define that the law for the problem would be unacceptable, which made the exercise with our group ending with a conclusion of him losing. It made us brain storm about the problem in how we should use properly the privacy laws and what can be applied.
Other than this, we were also given some time to do our project. Our project was about Mobile Malware and how it works. Took us few days trying to figure out about "FalseGuide" be cause it is a new malware created in the 2017 and is just been detected from the anti-viruses application. Our project was to show how it worked and what it could do. I was focused on the grammar checking and about the conclusion part of it and some example testing of a malware. Was a lot of fun despite the codes and complexity of the project, I learned a lot of things that a single malware about what it is capable of doing. It creates a botnet into the device, also connects to the Firebase cloud which where the malware are stored and installs it into the device with the user not knowing it. We would be showing the things that we learned on Saturday, and i would be showing some simple codes that the malware could do to the android devices once it is connected and installed.
