A program that is designed only to read Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) web pages downloaded from Internet websites. They can have helpers or add-on functions incorporated by using interpreters to read the additional instructions and provide different web content types. Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari are examples of these.
What is a browser? (or web browser)

Is the risk presented to an organization by current or past employees who have knowledge of how the organization works and what and where the most valuable (damaging) information might reside.
What is Insider threat?
200
Easily readable programs that automate or provide extra function on a computer system or in an application or browser. ActiveX and JavaScript are examples of this type of language.
What is Scripting? (or Scripting Code or Scripting Language)
300
This core principle of information security ensures computers and information are effective in supporting the mission.
What is Availability?
300
This can prevent loss of data in case of hard drive failure.
What are backups?
300
The ability to recover, converge or self-heal to restore normal operations after a disruptive event.
What is Resiliency?
300
These are well run groups of crooks who methodically look for computer vulnerabilities to steal large numbers of financial or credit card accounts for financial profit.
Who are organized crime groups?
300
A type of a program that takes scripting language and reads it so it can be acted on by a browser or an application. These are found in almost all operating systems, web browsers and many commercial off the shelf application programs.
What is an Interpreter?
400
This is the process of evaluating vulnerabilities and threats, identifying countermeasures, and applying mitigating actions to reduce risk to an acceptable level based on the value of the information.
What are Risk Management?
400
This means examining links URLs before using them and is also an ORNL Cyber Security slogan
What is "Think Before You Link"?
400
The deployment or provisioning of duplicate devices in critical areas to take over active operation if the primary device or system fails.
What is Redundancy?
400
They are structured groups funded by other governments and dedicated to mapping out the internet addresses for the purpose of espionage and possible computer attacks.
What is state sponsored hacking?
400
The contents of electronic documents that can carry out or trigger actions automatically, on a computer platform, without the intervention of a user. Active content includes built in macro processing, scripting languages, or virtual machines. A significant share of today’s malware involves this type of programs.
What is Active Content?
500
These state that all systems at ORNL must have an Approval to Operate (ATO) prior to becoming operational. The ATO is contingent upon successful documentation and certification that appropriate security measures are in place.
What are DOE Requirements?
500
A necessary process to limit the kinds of hardware and software which minimizes the number of different vulnerabilities and reduces exposure to security weaknesses.
What is Standardization or System Hardening?
500
To apply or maintain permissions to prevent an account from getting information they are not authorized to see while making the information available to those who are authorized.
What is Access Control?
500
The weakest link in every computer system. The one person who can through thoughtlessness, unawareness or accident, cause loss of work products through deletion, corruption or improperly safeguarding data.

A program, script, macro or other portable instruction, that can be shipped unchanged to a variety of platforms and executed with the same result. Some of the most common forms of mobile code are JavaScript, Asynchronous JavaScript and eXtended Markup Language (XML) or AJAX, Java applets, ActiveX, and Flash. It is being adapted to run on cell phones, PDAs, and other devices.
