Literature Review for Project Reports on Characteristics of an Internal Hard disk

Introduction to  Characteristics of an Internal Hard disk:

A hard disk is a storage device which is also called as a hard drive or a hard disk drive, in order to store the information and instructions into the hard disk, it has one or many circular platters which are inflexible and make use of the magnetic particles for the storing. Usually, longitudinal recording is used by the hard disks for storing the information, in this approach the magnetic particles are aligned horizontally.

The storage capacity of the hard disks can be increased by using the perpendicular recording for storing the information by aligning the magnetic particles vertically. The determination of the hard disk capacity can be done by considering the number of platters it has, which type of recording is used whether the perpendicular or longitudinal and the alignment of magnetic particles on the platters. 

Generally, a platter is prepared with ceramic or aluminium glass and also has a material coating on that and this coating permit the recording of the items on the surface magnetically. Each and every platter consists of two heads on either sides of that and the heads are read and write. A cylinder is a vertical section in a track by which it can be passed across all the platters and this cylinder will refer the location of the write and read heads.

The disk can be classified in to various sections and tracks and this process is called formatting. A narrow recording band which can make a complete circle on the disk’s surface is a track. The storage locations of a disk can be classified into sections which are in pie-shape, and the tracks are broken in to arcs by the sections and these small arcs are called sectors. The platters in the disk drive will revolve when the computer is on; the number of revolutions that the platters rotate is 5,400 revolutions to 15,000 revolutions per a minute.

 This will permit the access to all the sectors and tracks on the platters instantly. That means the tracks and sectors of the platters can be accessed automatically. The speed at which the transfer of information, instructions and data is done is called the transfer rate. The item on a storage medium can be located by the storage device and the time taken for locating the items is measured by the access time. The access time is also used to measure the time needed to deliver an item to the processor from the memory. 

Variations between the Storage Devices and Storage Medium Literature Review

A physical material in which a computer saves the information, data and instructions is called storage medium. The capacity of the storage media can be defined in terms of the number of characters or bytes that it can store.

A computer hardware that retrieves few items from the storage media or records some items to the storage media is called a storage device. The process of transmitting the items in to the storage medium from the memory is called as writing and the process of transmitting the items into the memory from the storage medium is called reading.

Storage Devices Presentation

Introduction to Storage Devices Presentation:

In any types of the business there is a necessity of securing the data. Even the organization is small or large the significant data related to the organizations should always be protected in a secured way. There is even a need to secure the significant electronic documents in homes and for this reasons there are some security issues that will takes place while securing them.

In order to secure the confidential data there are many existing storage options which have came into existence to protect the data. The data can be secured in the hard drive or else the removable disks. Some of the storage options which are been widely used in the recent days are as follows with their vulnerabilities.

 The online storage (Cloud Storage)

The online storage of the data is considered as one of the best and secured option within the existing options. The different types of the protocols of the data security belongs to the world class protocols and the different types of the disused systems will protect and secure the data even if any fundamental device gets failed. The main vulnerability within the online data storage is that it should be operated with the devices or else the computer of the client. There is a necessity of following specific approaches in order to access the data within the online storage.

 The hard drive storage

 In most of the small scare businesses the significant data is being stored and secured within the hard drives and it will not even have the backup process if any network storage problems take place. If the hard drive in which the data is stored is affected by the virus then there will be the loss of data and many errors will also occur. For this reason the specific storage device should be considered to store the important data according to its significance.

The magnetic tapes

 In some situations it is much better to utilize the magnetic tapes for the purpose of the long term data storage. The magnetic tapes are considered to be the best storage devices because they will not have any types of the virus attacks similar to that of the hard drives. But the magnetic tapes are having some vulnerabilities such as they are being affected by the different types of physical damages. On the other hand they totally relay on the backup hardware as well as the software in order to access the data for the future enhancements.

 The network storage

 The network data storage is the type of set up which is considered from the hard drive storage. Within this type of devices the data is being stored up on the network devices or else on the servers. The devices and the servers will perform different types of tasks in order to secure themselves from the problems. The other problem is that if the user is not able to access the networks then he will not be able to access the data which is stored by him.

The removable media

 The USB devices, the flash drives, SD cards as well as the DBDs are the different types of the removable media devices which are capable of storing the different types of data. All these types of removable media devices are more vulnerable to the losses and the physical damages but they can be widely used for securing the temporary data.

Computer and Network Security Project Ideas

Introduction to Computer and Network Security Project:

The computer networks is the set of two or more computers which are been organized together to complete the communication by making use of the different types of the data communication protocols by means of the communication media.

As a result these specific computers will be capable of sharing the information, the programs and the data. The different types of the data communications carried out by these computers are the text data, the images, audio as well as the video.

Purpose statement and motivation

The main reason for selecting Investigation and Critical Analysis of the Effects of Various Storage Media on Computer and Network Security  specific topic is that I my self will always use the computer and its devices for different purposes. But when I stored the information by using some storage devices and I was faced with the different problems like the data loses and some of the hackers have entered into my system and corrupted my significant data.

For this reason I have decided to get more information on the security problems in the storage devices and by this research process I got an opportunity to conduct a research on storage devices with their vulnerabilities. After completing this research work I wish to provide my valuable views and ideas for the future work.

CSE Latest Seminar Topic 2012 on Storage Media on Computer and Network Security

Introduction to Latest Seminar Topic 2012 on Storage Media on Computer and Network Security:

The storage media is considered as the technology that includes the different types of the devices and the materials which are been utilized for the purpose of placing, keeping as well as retrieving the data. The medium is known as the aspect which is been utilized to communicate the different types of the messages in the form of the data. The storage medium will include two different types of storages such as the primary storage and the secondary storage.

There is a necessity of the storage media for the purpose of offering the space for storing the different types resources that belongs to the computer networks such as the servers as well as the clients. In general there are different varieties of the storage devices that are network attached and they are having some advantages as well as the disadvantages which are considered to be usual within the network memory servers as well as the solid state memories.

The shared memory is having different benefits in which the terminal of a self computer and the different types of the computers towards the networks are capable of accessing the memory for them. The access for these specific types of the shared memories is like that of the programming modules in which the entire programming blocks will be capable of sharing the memory and fulfill the tasks assigned to them.

Generally, within the process of establishing the share memories the different types of the issues and problems related to the security will takes place when one computer or else the programming thread is employed with other work by making use of the memory blocks.

Without the interference of the third party some of the different types of the programs having virus will show the impact and will attack the data related to the program which is being carried out. On the other hand, the data which is being accessed by means of the other computers as well as the threads related to the computer programming will even be affected through the different programs that contain virus and for this reason the total system along with the network will be damaged. As a result there are different types of the security issues and problems within the storage media and the shared memories.
