The use of AI requires data security.

In the beginning, I must say that modern malicious software is searching data. It opens back gates to the system. And then that sends data to the third party. Another thing is that in most security scenarios the destructive viruses are used to open roads to the data breakers. Those people can try to slip non-secured components into the system.

This component can send the entire data to the attacker's system. It is not the same does the computer virus infects the server or the workstation. If the computer shuts down sometimes. That clears the virus from the RAM. Servers are vulnerable because if RAM-virus infects them it would not be removed from RAM-memory until the next boot. Servers are also involving most of the data.

That is stored in the system. So that means if the spy tool is infecting the server. That requires that the operators must change passwords and other access keys to the system. Computer viruses are always advancing and hackers are always finding new weak points of the system. They might take things like routers of the system to target. And double the entire data flow of the system. Then they can route the other data flow to their servers.

If we are thinking of the form of the AI. That is "only" a database where is stored the solutions for a certain type of problem. Or actually, those databases involve information that the system uses to respond to a certain type of data. The data that travels in the system activates a certain database. And then the AI can solve problems.

Machine learning means that the computer can automatically grow the data mass. And make connections between databases. The automatically learning machines can also call "open systems". The "closed" or "fixed systems" require that the operators are involving the solution. And the fixed system doesn't grow the data mass or connections between databases without operators.

Anyway, without those databases the AI is helpless. If the computer viruses hit those databases. The system would turn useless. This means that also the AI requires virus scanners against data viruses. The data viruses are normally detected when they attempt to write themselves to hard disks.

But there are also RAM viruses that are remaining in RAM. Those viruses are hard to detect. The virus doesn't write its code to hard disks. So the virus scanners are not able to see that thing.

This is why they are called Stealth-viruses. But also the regular computer viruses require to download their code to the RAM-memory of the computer. Regular computer viruses are normally acting always the same way. They are involving virus code.

The virus writers normally pack that malicious code in the form of EXE or COM-file that is only renamed for looking like an innocent file.

The next type of virus is easy to deny. The write protection of Autoexec was enough. And the new operating systems didn't include that file. so making this kind of virus was suitable only in Windows 9X.

Then the program that is some kind of macro as an example the BAT file just replaces the last line in the "Autoexec.Bat" by the command line that renames the virus file ("virus" to Virus.exe). Replacement of autoexec.bat happened by simply deleting Autoexec and replacing it with the macro that is renamed to Autoexec.Bat. And then it will activate the virus at the next boot session. Or sometimes there was only a command what deletes the system files.

Modern virus scanners are scanning also the code what the files involved. And if there is some kind of virus code. The firewall and anti-virus program sends the information of that virus to the network control. And that might close even the internet connection of the systems. Also denying the echoing commands and auto-driving programs can protect computers against viruses.

But computer viruses still exist. Modern malicious code is meant to steal information. They are more complicated than some viruses of the '90s. Those new viruses are also destroying only things like databases. And they can cause more damages than some virus that destroys the entire data system. If only the databases are destroyed. And the system is not used very often. That thing can cause a "nasty surprise" for people who should use the system.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines. The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
