Anti Virus are nasty software’s. It is designed to damage computer systems without the knowledge of the owner using the system and technique advancements are posing big challenges for researchers in both academia and the industry. The purpose of this study is to examine the available literatures on Anti Virus analysis and to determine how research has evolved and advanced in terms of quantity, content and publication outlets. Most Anti Virus programs are large and complex and one can’t possibly understand every detail. Educating the internet users about Anti Virus attack, as well as the implementation and proper application of anti-Anti Virus tools, are critical steps in protecting the identities of online consumers against Anti Virus attacks.

The internet search trend has caused that online users are looking for more and more enriched information. The evolution of social media has been huge and users relate to social networks differently than they did before. Currently, there are more than 4 billion active users on social networks and brands are looking to showcase their products and services. Our research found the following factors that influence social media engagement: informativeness, self-connection and advertising stimulation. Through literature review, we propose a conceptual model that has been tested in the PLS-SEM. Data were collected from 237 consumers and our survey found that engagement in social media is explained by the variables identified by our model. Important contributions to brand theory and management will be found in this investigation.

Although online sex work has become more accessible to people of all socio-economic statuses, labor practices and work safety have not improved since the widespread use of the internet. One way that we can help empower sex workers is to understand their motivations and experiences when using the internet. In a survey conducted by Sanders et al. (2017), the highest crime that 56.2% sex workers experienced was being threatened or harassed through texts, calls, and emails. Because there is no theory application to date on this marginalized group, three theories were proposed. This literature review highlights the need to explore why sex workers, as end-users, should be included in the user cybersecurity defense conversation, such as the cybercrimes that they face, their relationship with law enforcement, and what other factors affect their safety.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to consider the Internet of Things (IOT) and its potential impact on libraries. Design/methodology/approach – This paper presents a literature review and a commentary on this topic that have been addressed by professionals, researchers and practitioners. Findings – In communicating the issues when comprehending the scope of the IOT, libraries need not succumb to the sometimes near-hysteria that surrounds the rhetoric regarding security and privacy. But, librarians must actively engage in the conversation and its subsequent actions to respond to patrons who use library networks and devices with calm, logical and transparent answers to those questions concerning what they are doing to ensure that security and privacy vulnerabilities are regularly addressed. Originality/value – The value in concentrating on this topic is to provide background and suggest several approaches to security and privacy concerns regarding the IOT.

Japan as a non Moslem country realize that nowadays Moslem tourist are increasing and they has some specification for example in food, thus to do some hospitality or omotenashi, Japanese started to welcoming Moslem tourist by serving halal food. The theory used here are the consumer behavior from Etta Mamang Sangadji and Sopiah. While the theory of omotenashi is from Sato Yoshinobu and Abdulelah Al-alsheikh. This paper was based on limited literatures such as books, online articles from the internet, scientific discourses, including author’s empirical journey when living in Japan (1989-1994, 2007-2017) and faced difficulties in finding halal food. The finding of this paper is that the serving of halal food in some restaurants are increasing in Japan nowadays, because of omotenashi from the Japanese for their Moslem consumer. Omotenashi which Japanese do to all their guests has a big influence for the Moslem tourist.Tulisan ini berisi tentang keunikan omotenashi yang khas Jepang. Secara harafiah omotenashi berarti hospitality atau keramah-tamahan bangsa Jepang. Omotenashi yang diperlakukan terhadap para tamu atau wisatawan yang berkunjung ke Jepang tidak terkecuali terhadap wisatawan dengan latar belakang kepercayaan dan budaya yang berbeda seperti kaum muslim. Bangsa Jepang mempelajari kebutuhan dari konsumen mereka dan akhirnya mereka menerapkan omotenashi dengan mulai menjual makanan halal dan membuatkan sertifikasi untuk itu. Tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mendapatkan hasil, mengapa akhir-akhir ini makanan halal dapat lebih mudah ditemukan dibandingkan sebelum tahun 2010an. Jepang sebagai negara non muslim menyadari bahwa akhir-akhir ini wisatawan muslim meningkat dan mereka memiliki beberapa keistimewaan antara lain dalam makanan; oleh sebab itu untuk menyambut tamunya, orang Jepang melakukan omotenashi atau keramah-tamahan dengan cara mulai menyediakan makanan halal bagi wisatawan muslim.

The rapid growth of small Internet connected devices, known as the Internet of Things (IoT), is creating a new set of challenges to create secure, private infrastructures. This paper reviews the current literature on the challenges and approaches to security and privacy in the Internet of Things, with a strong focus on how these aspects are handled in IoT middleware. We focus on IoT middleware because many systems are built from existing middleware and these inherit the underlying security properties of the middleware framework. The paper is composed of three main sections. Firstly, we propose a matrix of security and privacy threats for IoT. This matrix is used as the basis of a widespread literature review aimed at identifying requirements on IoT platforms and middleware. Secondly, we present a structured literature review of the available middleware and how security is handled in these middleware approaches. We utilise the requirements from the first phase to evaluate. Finally, we draw a set of conclusions and identify further work in this area.

As the Internet offers a new venue for gambling, the risks for engaging in pathological behaviors are potentially increased. In light of this, a systematic literature review was conducted in order to shed further light on the relationship between gambling on the Internet and possible addiction by assessing Internet gambling in general and addictive gambling on the Internet specifically. Based on previous research, it is argued that a combination of individual, situational, and structural characteristics determine whether and to what extent individuals engage in Internet gambling. The results suggest that there are more problem gamblers on the Internet than in land-based venues. A reason for this may be the structural characteristics of the Internet inherent to this technology, namely availability, ease of access, anonymity, and convenience. In conclusion, however, the Internet cannot be claimed to be addictive per sé, but rather to facilitate the engagement in addictive behaviors, including gambling.
