War Games

This movie seemed to me so impressive, firstly as a child can have as many skills being so small. Secondly what could have caused this child to use their skills.

At first it may sound funny the issue of that one boy has confused a program of a military station with a video game (given the violence in video games, any other would have confused too), but once you thought about the damage that he may cause , the situation leaves to be so funny.

What I learned from this movie is that you have to protect things that are important for you and are within your computer, as you never know who could prowl around. Of course that we do not have programs to launch nuclear bombs or something like that, but I imagine that if someone hates me, can get into my computer and erase my final class project Software Architecture. Of course my teacher would not believe me, and would jeopardize my grade.

Retaking the matter, I believe that security is something we can not put aside. Those who are taking the computer forensics topic, we can get an idea of the information that we can access within a computer.

Although the film is somewhat old, I allowed myself to make a comparison with children of this age. I sincerely believe that children of today have great potential to exploit, but the problem is that this potential is misdirected. If schools put more emphasis on quality education where children have access to other activities that help them at channeling that knowledge, we would have a very promising future.

Taking what happened on the positive side, was good that the attacker was a child and thanks to this, the military could find vulnerabilities in your system that they not believed have. If it had been a terrorist they would not have had the same opportunity.
