Question

Email viruses are typically launched by people who modify header information to hide their identity. Brightmail’s Enrique Salem says that in the future, your email reader will authenticate the sender before putting the message in your inbox. That way, you will know the source of all the emails you read. Alan Nugent of Novell says, “I’m kind of a fan of eliminating anonymity if that is the price for security”. Will eliminating anonymity make computers more secure?

Debate the opinion of Mr. Salem.

Debate the opinion of Mr. Alan.

Give pros and cons both for anonymity and for security.

Relate anonymity and security with the help of a practical example from real life.

Finally, write your answer with a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ to the following statement “Will eliminating anonymity make computers more secure?” along with a justification/reason in one or two lines.

the answer is :

Debate the opinion of Mr. Salem.
nowadays, Email authentication allows ISPs to properly identify the sender of the email so it can make smarter decisions about the delivery of your mail. it is a “must do” for legitimate organizations. for applying email authentication, there are methods or techniques for that such as Sender Policy Framework (SPF), Sender ID, DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), Domain Message Authentication Reporting & Conformance (DMARC).

Debate the opinion of Mr. Alan.
I think, Universal identification is impossible. Implementing an Internet without anonymity is very difficult, and causes its own problems. Attempts to eliminate anonymity from the Internet won't affect those savvy enough to bypass it, would cost billions, and would have only a negligible effect on security. What such attempts would do is affect the average user's access to free speech, including those who use the Internet's anonymity to survive.

Give pros and cons both for anonymity and for security.
For anonymity:
        Pros:

Self-expression is much easier.

you can discuss sensitive and controversial subjects, like abortion and politics, more freely without having to worry.

It's safer to be yourself.

        Cons:

Abusive tendencies and language can be harmful.

anyone can post and publish Racism.

Sources might not be trustworthy.

For Security:
        Pros:

you will be feel good. because, the system will be in safety.

Monitor Scenarios and Activities.

Maintain the information from stealing.

        Cons:

may cost a lot of money to protecting the system.

the Antivirus is known and may the hackers have one, and know the weaknesses of it. then exploit these vulnerabilities.

may you lose some advantages in the strict security.

Relate anonymity and security with the help of a practical example from real life.
Anonymity : if you want to browse some of website these are denied in your country, you should use anonymity.
Security : when you login the Internet, you must have security tool( antivirus, firewall) to protect you system from attacking. Because, there are many risks face you.

Finally, write your answer with a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ to the following statement “Will eliminating anonymity make computers more secure?” along with a justification/reason in one or two lines.

No, eliminating anonymity doesn't make computers more secure. but it will violate the privacy rights. if there is afraid from anonymity, the scientists evolve new techniques to gather between more secure and anonymity.

My question is: In short, and a very few lines, please evaluate the previous answer if there are mistakes, and do you agree with the answer?

Please uose you own words No copy from any source , no handwriting please.

Explanation / Answer

As Per Mr Salem Opinion , Yes It can become Easy to detect The Email Virus because Most of The Hacker and Online Criminal take Adavantage of anonymity , with That They are able to Create Email virus By making changes in the Header Information . But The key fact is anonymity is Just a Idea and Security is a thing , Security is the things which enables us to safe our Information from Hackers , Online Criminal . Security is the thing Which can never be compromised , Security is very related to privacy also. Our Personal Information or Privacy Should be secured by following the Security Policy Of Government or Organization. So Security is thing But Anonymity is Just a Idea .Anonymity is idea of not being identifiable as Your true self in internet . Lot of Hackers and Spammers take adavnatge of this idea this is the downside of the anonymity but it has Positive side as well.Like There Are Many Social Plateform Which Offers users to ask their Query As anonymous. People can give Solution to the query without knowing the Identity of Person who asked query.Like In a Case of teenAger who is Having question Related to their sexuality does not want to revel identity to world and family ,friends can ask Question in Internet as anonymous, here anonymity Should get respect. So To provide a democratic System ,anonymity Plays important Role. Eliminating anonymity May make computer Secure from hackers and Online Criminal.But it will lead to Obstacle in Democratic System instead of that Making use of Effcient Technology and Privacy Rule can Also make System more secure without losing the idea of anonymity .

So i hope you got the fair idea about Security and Anonymity both are having its pros and cons where Secuirty is the thing which Enables the data secure and Information secure and can never be compromised .on the other hand pros of anonymity is it leads to democratic Plateform and One can Ask one's query without reveling the identity cons are Many Hacker and Criminal take advantage of this idea for online ill activities like Email virus, Spam etc.
