Current State of Archiving Archaeological Reports in Bulgaria: still more physical than digital

This article provides an overview of the current state of archaeological archiving in Bulgaria. It briefly outlines the legislation that regulates archaeological fieldwork activities. Although the national legislation regulates the non-destructive and destructive activities equally, differences occur owing to the existence of the 'Archaeological Map of Bulgaria', a national 'sites and monuments' type of archaeological information system. Currently, online storage of brief data and information is possible for different archaeological sites. Its next version will be based on GIS and geographic features that allow storage of raw field survey data. According to the regulations, paper/digital reports of all fieldwork activities are collected yearly and copies of all of them are stored at the 'Scientific Archive' section at the National Archaeological Institute with Museum at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Although their digitisation is still in the early stages, the good news is that the centralised archaeological workflow regulates their storage in one place, which makes them more easily accessible. The annual publication of the 'Archaeological Discoveries and Excavations' series, with summaries for all fieldwork activities in the year, is also very useful for keeping track of the archaeological work and results.

IMPLICATIONS OF COMPUTER-AIDED LEARNING IN ELT FOR SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS AND TEACHERS DURING COVID-19

Purpose of the study: The primary purpose of this research study was to get detailed insights about numerous aspects of the online ELT for second language learners and teachers in Faisalabad. Methodology: Our study was based on an online survey. Respondents were students and teachers of the English department from different universities in Faisalabad. Data was collected and analyzed to find answers to our research questions. Other characteristics like focus, comfort, understanding, communication, and expense pinpoint the differences between online and physical ELT methods. Main Findings: We found that students and teachers most commonly faced internet connectivity and audio-visual issues. The overall opinion of students about teachers was encouraging. However, teachers claimed that students were not that much serious in online classes. Online ELT has improved the technical capabilities of respondents, and it has made them proficient in using smartphones, online storage, word processing, and computer troubleshooting. Faculty respondents showed interest in learning new tools despite the burden faced and psychological fears. Finally, social media and solution-oriented discussion forums can prove effective and efficient in addressing future pandemic outbreaks. Applications of this study: This study provided us with valuable insights that can help design an effective online educational framework for efficient and result-oriented English language learning. Novelty/Originality of this study: Our study explored faculty and students' psychological and technological readiness at postgraduate institutes to cope with future pandemics.

Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing Approach Towards Cloud-Based Application and Related Services

Cloud solutions provide a powerful computing platform that enables individuals and Cloud users to perform a wide range of tasks, such as using an online storage system, implementing business applications, developing customized computer software, and establishing a realistic network environment. The number of people using cloud services has increased dramatically in recent years, and a massive amount of data has been stored in cloud computing environments. As a result, data breaches in cloud services are increasing year after year as a result of hackers who are constantly attempting to exploit cloud architecture's security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we investigate and analyse real-world cloud attacks in order to demonstrate the techniques used by hackers against cloud computing systems and how to prevent such malicious activities.

A Continuous Sampling Method for Batch Data Auditing in Cloud Storage

Cloud storage offers online storage services to back up data and enables easy access to real-time data at any time and on the fly. The primary issue of security arises as the data is outsourced to remote servers that cause data loss and modifications to occur. Data corruptions or misbehaviours in the cloud service providers (CSP) have to be detected at low cost and promptly. The data outsourced to CSP by the data owners might suffer from cloud service provider misbehaviour, in particular unauthorized deletion of data by CSP to save storage space towards attracting potential clients. Adapting continuous sampling of random blocks as batches reduce the computation workload on the servers, thus detecting the modifications or corruptions if any without time delays. The corrupted data blocks are located with continuous sampling methods and the probability of detection is high.

APPLICATION OF CLOUD TECHNOLOGIES IN ACCOUNTING

Traditional accounting in modern conditions of digitalization of the economy requires significant changes in terms of the use of new information tools. One of these opportunities is the use of new information technologies in accounting. These new information technologies include cloud technologies, which are a specific environment (for storing, processing, and protecting information) that combines technical tools, software, communication channels, and technical support. Services that may be based on technology (MCloud) are software as a service (SaaS), infrastructure as services (IaaS), platform as services (PaaS). From the point of view of an accounting organization, the most convenient of these three types of services is the service as a software. Cloud technologies are the storage and processing of information on servers on the Internet. The positive aspects of using cloud technologies include the fact that accountants do not need to purchase, install the program on their computer, maintain it in working order, and ensure data protection and security. All this can be done in the cloud. Cloud storage - is online storage where information is stored on the network on servers provided by an information service provider for the use of customers. At the same time, cloud providers provide services for renting a server from various companies based on cloud technologies. The article analyzes the opportunities that cloud technologies provide in accounting, considers the advantages and disadvantages of using such technologies.
