In my previous article, I have discussed at length some of the facts that you need to know about computer security. In this article, I want to look at the five layers of computer security. Follow me as we will be analysing this together in this article.
#1 Physical Security
This has to do with the process of safeguard network hardware, computers, and other infrastructure from intruders and thieves.
Most at times, you have to ensure that computer devices are kept away from locations where they can be damaged or tampered with. You have to keep some of these data away from unauthorised access as much as possible.
#2 Network Security
This has to do with protecting your network appliances and there services from unauthorised modification, destruction and disclosure.
This will prevent hackers and unauthorised users from having access to your network resources.
#3 System security
This protect system and it’s resources as well as information from corruption, theft and unauthorised access to users resources. This will ensure that computer systems available in the organisation are kept secured.
#4 Application Security
This has to do with the use of software, hardware and procedural methods to protect applications against external attacks.
It has to do with all measures that organisations have put in place in order to ensure that users are secured when using organisations resources.
#5 User security
This ensures that a valid user is logged in and that the logged-in user is allowed to have access to all the resources that are needed in order to guarantee user experience.

The word “entrepreneurship” is used to describe the creative, innovative, and risk-taking and organisational process and functions of individuals who initiate, run and nurture a business venture.
In this article, I want to talk about all that you need to know about the basic concept of Entrepreneurship.
The ultimate aim of such an individual is to receive the reward of resultant profit, independence, personal achievement and fame. However, there are risks which the venture of the entrepreneur must take.
These are business or financial losses as well as social, psychological and health-related risks.
Entrepreneurship also involves a strong initiative-taking ability to start something new, venture into new areas to take advantage of opportunities, continuous innovations, commercialization of new technology, and a strong managerial process.
An example of an entrepreneur is Ingvar Kamprad, founder of IKEA, a multinational company that makes first-class furniture. Others are Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Carol Slim Helm, and Aliko Dangote among others. These are individuals who achieve greatness through entrepreneurship.
There are many perspectives on the definition of entrepreneurship. Economists view entrepreneurship as the taking of risks in expectation of profit by combining factors of production or resources such as Land, labour, and capital in a way that produces something new with greater value or utility for the satisfaction of human wants.
To a management scientist, entrepreneurship is a creative, innovative, and strategic process of starting and revitalizing an organization and continuously improving its products and services.
It involves perceiving business opportunities and using available resources efficiently and effectively to achieve the goals and objectives of an organization.
To an accountant or financier, entrepreneurship is concerned with the activities of individuals with realistic business or investment ideas and is able to take advantage of investment opportunities that yield a high return on investment.
The majority of psychologists and sociologists see entrepreneurship as the activities of individuals with a high aspiration to achieve, seek financial and personal independence, and want to create a new thing.
To a business person, entrepreneurship has to do with the process of a modern business, industrial leadership, and aggressive competition among others with the aim of making financial gains by offering better products and services. Others may have a negative view.
To many others who dislike free enterprise such as communists, labour unionists, social activists among others, the entrepreneur is a rogue who appropriates profits, exploit society and destroys the natural environment.
Notwithstanding, the benefits of entrepreneurship largely outweigh any negative aspects. In all, these different views there are common components of entrepreneurship. These include:
Recognition of business opportunities. Initiating ideas and action. Using economic, managerial, social, and technical mechanisms in converting, improving, and organizing resources.
Innovation and creating something new and of value. Risk-taking and tolerance for failure.
Entrepreneurship is a process of identifying opportunities, creating or improving new or existing technology, products, and services, bearing the accompanying risk, and receiving a resultant reward.

7 Types Of Computer Security Attacks For Home Users
When it comes to computer security attacks, the most vulnerable set of people are the home users. This is simply because most times they always feel that there is absolutely nothing on their device that will be of interest to hackers.
This at times always make them take things for granted. In this article, I want to talk about seven types of computer security attacks for home users. Follow me as we are going to look at this together in this article.
When it comes to these attacks, we can categorise into two major parts. There are some that we can categorise as attacks and some can be categorised as accidents. I will look at those two categories in this article.
Now the attacks…
#1 Malware attacks
Malware is also known as malicious software. They are software that is capable of damaging your device. Some of this software might look as if they are good software but when you finally install them, they are capable of trying to access sensitive data on your computer.
If the owner is not careful enough, he might loose sensitive data to the activity of malware.
#2 Email attacks
Email attacks are also one of the most common attacks that hackers and scammers always use to perpetrate their attacks. This is because almost every adult has an email address.
At one point or another, even those that do not have an email address are asked to open it. The majority of people are also fond of clicking on any link they find in an email.
You have to confirm the authenticity of links that you find in all emails before you visit such a site. Once you click on those emails, they are capable of activating viruses or malware that can destroy your device. That is why you have to be very careful.
#3 Mobile code attack
Another form of attack is mobile code attack. In this type of attack, a website can be created that looks legit but they are meant to attack your device and steal sensitive data from your device.
That is why you have to be very careful when links are included in emails sent to you.
Some of these links are from sensitive websites where sensitive data can be stolen. That is why you must not open links that are sent to you by an unknown person.
#4 Denial of Service attack
Another form of attack that home users can experience is a Denial of Service attack. In this kind of attack, their systems might be attacked in such a way that they are not able to have access to resources that they are trying to access.
They might be prevented from having access to resources that they need to access at any point in time.
#5 Identity theft and computer fraud
Another form of attack that careless computer users can experience is identity theft. When you are careless with your device, it is very possible for hackers to steal your sensitive information and use such data to commit cybercrimes.
#6 Packet sniffing
Another issue with careless computer users is that they might always be a victim of packet sniffing. It is very possible for hackers to grab data that are being passed from one person to another.
When hackers have access to such data, they actually look at what is being sent. They might be able to divert such data. This can lead to greater attacks for such users.
#7 Man in the middle
When you are careless, you might become a victim of a man-in-the-middle attack. This is when a computer acts as a novice and he is being used to achieve other things that are so deadly to organisational devices.
A good example is a computer user that likes to click on any type of like sent to him. Such a user will introduce viruses to the organisational network.
Some of the accidents…
#1 Hard disk failure
One of the bad things that can happen is that if you fail to take care of your device you might experience hard disk failure.
It is very possible for viruses to penetrate into your device and your hard disk or other components will be destroyed.
#2 Power failure and surges
Another problem has to do with power failure and surges which can also damage computer devices. Take for example you always overcharge your laptop, there is a high tendency that the laptop might be destroyed. You have to take all precautions not to overcharge your laptop.
Now your take on this article…
I know you might agree with some of the points that I have raised in this article.
You might not agree with some of the issues raised. Let me know your views about the topic discussed. We will appreciate it if you can drop your comment. Thanks in anticipation.
#3 Theft
Lastly, when you are careless with your device, it can be stolen. You have to make sure that you keep your computing device safe when it is not in use.
You must ensure that your device is locked up safe. Never take anything for granted. There was a time that my laptop was stolen. I was very careless then. My laptop was stolen and I have lost so many daughters since then.

How Unemployed Youths Can Identify Business Opportunities
In my previous articles, I have looked at some of the facts that you need to know about entrepreneurship but in this article, I want to talk about some of the ways by which unemployed Youths can identify business opportunities and stop running after white-collar jobs. Follow me as we are going to look at that together in this article.
Business Opportunities are identified from the business environment, customers, government institutions, mass media, schools among others.
Most societal problems are opportunities for the entrepreneur to provide a solution, that is a product or a service.
It could be a new drug to solve a health problem, new farm equipment, or pesticide, a multimedia system that is used to impact knowledge in schools, a new course in the university, a new perfume that prevents body odour, an accounting problem among others.
This shows that the entrepreneurial process requires and involves improving existing products and commercialising untried technology. Entrepreneurship is neither a science nor an art. It is more of a practice, however, as in all practice, such as accountancy, Engineering, Medicine, knowledge is vital as a means to an end.
The practice is what really defines who is actually an entrepreneur. Drucker (1985) explained that every practice rests on a theory of economy and society. Intending entrepreneurs get their knowledge, skills and passion through informal education and experience in the family business, apprenticeship or on the job, practical training in small or large organisations.
Formal training can also be obtained in educational institutions. Entrepreneurship is increasingly becoming a discipline and course of study in universities, professional institutions as well as technical and vocational schools.
The emergence of a free-market economic system in hitherto to state-controlled economies of Eastern Europe, defunct Soviet Union, China etc. and developing economies in Asia, Africa, Latin America among others has given an increasing rise to global entrepreneurship.
The free market system encourages competition in the marketplace among entrepreneurs.
To remain in the market and be relevant to society, the entrepreneur must be very innovative and continually developing new products with greater value to their customers.
Innovations have been the bedrock and driving force of modern entrepreneurship. Business ventures that are not willing to invest in innovation are soon forced out of the market. This is a pointer to business failure.
Through innovation, new industries are built and existing ones changed. Innovation is usually in all aspects of a business; in product design and development, in production process and techniques, in managing staff, finance, marketing, sales, distribution, customer services and so on. This invariably means that entrepreneurship has also gone beyond just starting a new business venture or owning a small business.
To be entrepreneurial, specific characteristics are required of an individual.
These are abilities to create new things, something different with added value. Entrepreneurs strive to do things better, creatively destroying existing orders and introducing new and better ones.
Entrepreneurship is not only found in business organisations but also in non-profit making organisations. It is found in government, non-governmental organisations and even religious organisations.
Many government establishments also innovate, create new things, change and add value to their products and services.
Take, for example, the activities of many Nigerian government regulating agencies and research institutes and proactive government officials who attempt to bring some innovation into the government.
An example can be found in NAFDAC and NIPOST that made themselves very relevant to society with their various products and services.
NGOs develop various ways of offering services as well as assessing funds from donor agencies. Once their proposals are creatively written to be responsive to core development intervention areas such as health, basic education, gender issues, conflict resolution, microfinance among other development financial institutions and donor agencies will be willing to provide funds.
Proposal writing and project execution require foresight, creativity and innovation. Many churches and other religious organisations, especially the charismatic ones are also very entrepreneurial.
A number of clergies are engaged in a lot of entrepreneurial activities. They create new and different approaches of worship, ceremonies, as well as novel approaches to evangelism or missionary, works to satisfy the needs of their members as appealing to new members.
There are innovations in their obvious products such as the regular church services offered ion Sundays, Bible studies, evening services, find raising services like bazaars and special services such as being ceremony, baptism, marriage, funeral among others.
Others even go as much as to introduce other products like daycare services, medical care, basic and higher education etc Schools, hospitals, publishing houses etc established by churches are among the best in the world.
The church is also one of the best mobilisers of funds for community development. Clergies who are able to introduce acceptable innovation in their churches are great achievers today.

I have talked about some of the facts that you need to know about entrepreneurship development theories in organisations. In this article, I want to look at some of the Entrepreneurship Development Theories for entrepreneurs. Follow me as we are going to look at this together in this article.
The word entrepreneurship originates from the French word ‘entrepredres’. It means to undertake, that is, to undertake a business venture. It also means ‘go between’ that is a person who signed a contract with a financier to sell his or her product.
The capitalist provided a loan to the merchant adventurer at a given rate of interest.
The merchant adventurer performed an active role of trading bearing the physical and emotional risk; the financier bears the passive risk and usually take a large part of the profit.
This was the earlier view of the entrepreneur prior to the middle age in Europe.
An example of such an entrepreneur was the legendary adventurer Marco Polo. In the middle age, merchants, actors artists, painters, sculptors, architects or managers of large scale art projects were referred to as entrepreneurs.
Theories and commentaries on entrepreneurship originate from the following source of approaches:

#1 Psychological Trait Approach
The contributors to this approach are McClelland, Meredith, etc. They contended that the entrepreneur has some personality characteristics e.g need for achievement and independence, risk-taking, internal locus of control, foresight, tolerance for ambiguity, acceptance of failure among others that distinguish him or her from other individuals.
#2 Sociological Approach
The contributions of writers such as Marx Weber and Frank Young argued that prevailing social and economic conditions in the social environment have impacts on the development of entrepreneur behaviour.
There are other African commentators that believe that entrepreneurship is a product of the social-economic and technological system.
Once these systems are weak in a nation or state, entrepreneur behaviour is retarded. For instance, Ogbor Ikhimokpa and Enwegbara believe that the banes of African entrepreneurship are bad governance, corruption, poor infrastructure, weak economic base among others.

In this article, I want to continue my discussion about entrepreneurship development. I will be talking about all that you need to know about the contributions of Richard Cantillon and Jean Baptiste Say to Entrepreneurship Development.
To earliest theories of entrepreneurship are this of Richard Cantillon and Jean Baptiste Say. Both were 18tj century French economists. He argued that all entrepreneurs -merchants, financiers, farmers and artisan operate their enterprises at a risk by buying at a certain price and selling at an uncertain price.
He is regarded as the founder of the term entrepreneur. He explained that the person bearing risk (entrepreneur) is distinct from the person providing finance (capitalist).
He observes that entrepreneur plays a pivotal role in the development of the market economy.
Contillon and Say belong to the Economic School Of Thought known as the ‘Physiocrat’ which concerned there economic analysis mainly on the physical aspect of an agrarian economy.
Contillon wrote that there are those classes of people in an economy or society:
The entrepreneur
The landowners
The workers
Entrepreneurs As Actors
According to him, entrepreneurs were actors in the economy. They provide mainly commercial roles in the stages of production. Cantillon’s views were not considered by the earliest industrial economists probably because of the dominance of their thinking on land and agrarian economy.
Jean Baptiste also emphasized this difference between the entrepreneur and the person providing capital.
He distinguished between the profit of the entrepreneur who bears the risk and interest paid to the provider of the capital.
Say described the entrepreneurial functions as that of combining various business resources, risk-taking and management.
According to him, the entrepreneur shifts economic resources from areas of lower productivity to areas of higher productivity and greater yield.

In my previous article, I have talked about all that you need to know about how you can become an entrepreneur and be your own boss. In this article, I want to look at some of the common attributes of emerging Entrepreneurial ventures. Follow me as we are going to look at that together in this article.
#1 Result oriented
A good entrepreneur will always focus on results. He will always highly his vision, focus on what customers want and plan on how he will be able to achieve those goals that he has set when he was starting out as an entrepreneur.
#2 Task culture with a flat structure
Another major fact about entrepreneurs I’d that they are always task-focused and has a flat structure. At times, when they are starting out, they are almost the ones doing everything. Their aim is to complete all the tasks that he has set for themselves.
#3 Development of new ideas
Also, Entrepreneurial ventures always encourage the development of new ideas.
As an entrepreneur that wants to succeed, he needs to bring diverse brains together in order to achieve corporate goals. He will always welcome different calibre of people that will be able to help him to succeed.
#4 Continuous innovation
Another thing that you can not take away from entrepreneurs is that they continue to evolve.
A good entrepreneur will always look for ways of doing things in a better way by creating what is not existing before or packaging it in a better way. They are always ready to explore new opportunities.
#5 High uncertainty
Another major issue with new Entrepreneurial ventures is that there is a high-level às far as the business venture is concerned.
The so-called new business owner is not even sure whether the business venture will succeed or not. It was even discovered according to research that most of the new business ventures failed in the first five years of establishment.
#6 Risk-taking
Another issue that you need to know about emerging Entrepreneurial ventures is that there is a high level of risk-taking.
There is always little tolerance for failure and persistent trial in the organisation. Sone of these new business owners always fails because they are always afraid of taking risks.
#7 Visionary and persistent leadership
Another fact that you need to know about entrepreneurs is that they are always visionary and they are very persistent in their vision.
They have goals that they have set to achieve and they always put together all the resources that they needed in order for them to succeed.
You also need the knowledge that entrepreneurs always follow a long lope to success.
They need to understand that they have to pass through many upheavals on their way to success and they are ready to weather the storm in order for them to succeed. Amazingly, not all of them always get to the end of the rope.
#9 Organic organisation
You also need to know that entrepreneurs have an organic organisation that is wired up for change. Unlike big corporations where there are procedures for making changes.
It is always very easy for the owners to quickly adjust and change some practical steps in order to adapt to new situations. This allows the organisation to progress steadily towards attaining its goals.
#10 Reward
Good entrepreneurs need to also understand the concept of ” the higher the risk, the higher the reward”.
They need to know that the best time to take risk is the time that everyone is running away from risk.
Entrepreneurs have developed a system that is based on performance and results. If you failed to perform, then you have no reward.

In my previous article, I have talked about the contributions of Richard Cantillon to Entrepreneurial Development. Now I want to look at some of the major contributions of Francis Walter to Entrepreneurial Development. Follow me as we are going to consider that together in this article.
His Contributions
In the late 19th century, Francis Walter also differentiated between those who supplied funds and received interest and those that provided management and receive profit.
This distinction was as a result of the increasing industrialization of the 19th century.
At the beginning of the 20th century, entrepreneurs were viewed mainly from an economic perspective.
The entrepreneur was regarded as an organiser who starts and operates an enterprise in expectation of reward of profit and equally bears the risk of making a loss.
The work of undertaking risk in expectation of profit is referred to as an ‘enterprise’ and the provision of capital is referred to as ‘financing’.
The famous economist John Stuart Mill in his 1948 Classic, ‘ The Principle Of Political Economy’ also popularised the ideas of the entrepreneur as an organiser who assumes the risk of a business in return for profit.
Before the industrial revolution in England, production was carried out on a small scale and usually in cottage industries.
There was no distinction between enterprise and management. With the invention of heavy machinery and the emergence of large industrial undertakings, joint-stock company ownership from control, that is, the separation of shareholders and directors.
Hence, a separation was made between enterprise and management.
The shareholders bear the risk and get the reward of ownership.
Enterprise relates to shareholders. In most organisations, the actual work of management is done by paid managers or appointed directors. The entrepreneur is not a paid manager: he or she performs the task of risk-taking and provides general leadership.
The directors perform the work of corporate management.
However, in small scale businesses, it is difficult to separate the functions of the entrepreneur and that of the organiser or manager. These functions are performed by the same person, the small business owner.

In my previous article, I have talked about different elements of computer security. In this article, I want to talk about some of the things to secure in a computing environment. Follow me as we are going to look at that together in this article.
Here are what you should secure…
#1 Hardware
One of the very first things you need to secure is your hardware. You need to make sure that your devices are kept away from the prying eyes of thieves. You have to make sure that you don’t carelessly place your devices. You must keep it away. You also need to make sure that the server room must be transparent enough so that you can see what is going on in that server room at every point in time.
#2 Software
There is a need for you to also identify your software and enumerate them. You need to make sure that anti-virus are installed and they are updated regulated. You have to make that it is only lawful users that are able to access your software at. any point in time.
#3 Information
Another major component that you need to secure is your personal information. This includes your login details such as your password, social security number, national identity number as well as other personal information that can give hackers access to your account.
#4 Communication
Another major thing that you need to secure is your communication activities. Such communication includes instant messaging, email communications and other means of sending such communications from one person to another.
Examining Home Computers Vulnerabilities: How It Can Be Addressed
In my previous article, I have talked about some of the facts that you need to know about layers of computer security. In this article, I want to talk about some of the actions that make home computers vulnerable.
#1 Low-level security awareness
One of the reasons why home users are open to attacks is because of they little or no knowledge about computer security.
They do not know what they actually need to do in order to secure their devices. This allows hackers and crackers to take undue advantage of them.
#2 Default settings
Another mistake that opens home users to attacks is that they always retain default computer settings.
A new device will not have a password or fingerprints. It has a simple password which hackers can guess easily. If you fail to change these default settings, you are setting yourself up for more attacks.
#3 Increasing online activities
Another problem with home users is that they are always careless when they are online.
What they forget is that when they are online, they are connected to a network of networks. They are open to more attacks and some of them are even surfing the internet without having good anti-virus software.
#4 Little or no investment
There are many home users that always find it difficult to invest in Security.
They want everything absolutely free. Some cannot even afford to spend at least $10 to bit a good antivirus.
In my previous articles, I have talked about some of the steps that you can follow in order to secure your devices. In this article, I want to talk about four major actions that can guarantees system security. Follow me as we are going to look at that together in this article.
Here are the steps to take…
#1 System access control
First and foremost, you need to make sure that it is only authorised users that can have access to devices.
The users need to access devices based on what they have or what they do not have. This will reduce unauthorised users.
Also, you need to ensure that authorised users comply with security measures that you have put in place.
An average employee will not always want to comply but you have to make sure that the system is configured in such a way that system will force them to comply with measures that you have put in place.
#2 Data access controls
There is a need for you to keep a close eye on organisational data that are available at your disposal.
You need to understand who is accessing organisational data and for what purpose are they carrying out such activity.
You also need to define access levels based on the roles that every individual are expected to perform. You have to make sure no single individual have access to all aspect of the data.
Nobody should be given access more than what they need to perform their roles.
#3 System and Security Administration
You also have to perform system and security administration such as configuring system settings, implementing security policies as well as monitoring system states among others in order to be sure that intruders cannot have access to organisational resources.
#4 System Design
This has to do with the development of various aspects of system designs for the security architecture.
It covers hardware and software design such as memory segmentation, privilege isolation among other features.

There is a saying that you cannot outgrow what you don’t know. The same thing applies to system security, you need to make a conscious effort to learn of you don’t want to fall, a victim.
In this article, I want to look at five benefits of computer security awareness ..Follow me as we are going to look at the benefits together on this article.
Now the benefits…
#1 little chances
The first thing is that if you are aware of all the precautions that you need to take in order to secure your devices and you are doing all you could to follow all the necessary precautions, it will reduce the rate of computer attacks that hackers can perpetrate on your device.
#2 Prevent the loss of information
If your re also security conscious at all times, you will be able to prevent loss of sensitive data and information to hackers.
Those who are not security conscious always feel that there is nothing they have that is of benefit to hackers. This also allows hackers to have unhindered access to their sensitive data and information.
#3 Man in the middle
Other benefits of having computer security awareness are that it will prevent you from being used as a medium of attack for others.
When you are security conscious, you will not be used as an avenue to steal vital information from others.
#4 Minimize physical damage
Also, when you have computing security knowledge, you will be able to minimise physical damages.
You will know some of the necessary precautions that you need to take in order to keep your computer and other devices secured. This will increase the lifespan of your devices.
#5 Protecting sensitive data

How Blogs Can Complement Websites: A Practical Guide.
As you will find out later on, blogging brings many benefits to a business. One of the main reasons for blogging as a business is to provide more information to your potential customers.
The company website provides information to all of the visitors, but this content is more static and general. Therefore, a blog is a perfect way to complement your website with more information and content that is more dynamic, which means it is regularly updated. A blog also allows you to implement an abundance of keyword-rich materials which is an ideal way to attract relevant search engine queries and position your blog among the top search engine results.
The content that can complement your website include: • How-to articles • Guides • Product details and specification • Product introduction • Product comparison • Demonstration of product features
• Information about the events you are organizing/participating in • Company news and updates
Besides more information about products and product usage, the main distinction a blog can bring to your website is personalization. While website content is more across-the-board, blogging can bring that level of personalization necessary to create a bond with your visitors.
Using the status of an individual as a blog author can help you create content which is more individualized and targeted at specific visitors within your target group.
The bottom line is that blogging is a part of your business and it has a specific role in online marketing. As you will discover later on in this ebook, it is essential that blogging becomes a part of the overall planning, to be incorporated and coordinated with other segments of your business, to ensure the highest performance.
