Shiksha Top Questions

There are three main generally accepted categories of a hacker, each represented by a hat of a different colour: white, grey and black. All of them exploit weaknesses in computer systems and networks. The differences between them are their motivations. The most infamous is the black hat hackers, computer criminals epitomized by Hollywood, whose malicious activities serve their own ends ranging from financial gain to simply causing chaos. White hat hackers are usually those that carry out their craft with no apparent criminal intention in mind. And grey hats sit somewhere in the middle, often hacking into a system just to prove they can, but afterward usually notifying the vendor or owner of the weakness.
Most organisations believe that the act of authorising an ethical hacker to test a company's defences is enough legal protection to justify both sets of actions: firstly, the action of hiring an ethical hacker and secondly, to provide necessary cover for the questionable activities of the hacker, who in turn believes they are justified by the fact that they are acting in the best interests of the company who hired them.

Hello,
First, it is brought out that the concept of lateral entry is there in engineering colleges but this concept is not available for entry into a B.Sc course. This is so since after 10th, there is a possibility of going for a 3-year Diploma course followed by 3-years engineering by lateral entry thus making it a 6-year programme after 10th before one can graduate as an engineer. (10+3+3), same years if one takes engineering via normal route (10+2+4). However, this facility is not available for B.Sc students hence it's a simple course of three years after 12th. It is to be remembered that hardware and networking are actually specialisations in the study of engineering and not available in detail during the study of B.Sc. However, there is a course available called B.Sc (computers) that covers these topics to some extent. List of such colleges is attached as a link:

Hope this helps.

I think IGNOU is the best one. For one - It was created by the Act of Parliament, 1985. So all its programmes are well recognised by different universities for pursuing higher education and also by industries for jobs.
Getting admission in IGNOU is really easy. They have online admission system. You can simply upload your documents at IGNOU Online Admission and secure admission.
The best part is its study material. They are designed by professionals and Ph.Ds/ experts in fields. So the content is of high quality. Since they are specially made for self-study, they are easy to understand. You receive study material by courier. Infact you receive even exam hall ticket and I card by post and well in time. Or else you can download them from the web site. In short, all processes are simplified. For any other queries, you can seek help from your regional centre.
But IGNOU is for those you are sincere in studies for exams are more difficult than Sikkim Manipal University (SMU) for sure. Also, you need to have submitted your assignments in time. Or else you won't be allowed to appear in that particular subjects exam. In other words, passing SMU exams is a lot easier.
In my opinion, If you want more knowledge and study not just for the sake of having a degree certificate, then IGNOU is your way. But if you want easy way then go for SMU. I am no way devaluing SMU degree, but in my personal opinion, Ignou is better.
Also, you can go to IGNOU regional centre and have a look at study material of your course you intend to study. Or you can download study material from eGyankosh: Home of Ignou free of cost before enrolling and then take a final decision.
All the best!
