No. Credible is a long reach. Credibility comes from substantiated facts and corroboration. Google search engine information is not cleared for its accuracy. Google does little if any quality control of their site for accuracy of information. For example, Google has a review process for merchants which anyone can post negative or positive, unsubstantiated, uncorroborated, false information about that company. If you read a positive or negative review about anything on Google, there is no way for you to know if it is true or not, so therefore the review process is an unknown mathematically speaking, that is, if you can't quantify the validity or value of the source, then it's value is unknown. I would say that Google is an incredible resource which can be a great tool for finding evidence which may lead to credible information.
What is a bookmark in a Web browser and what do bookmarks allow you to do?

Difference a web page and website?
Consider the following:
A website is a group of webpages.
Imagine a big business like KMart or General Motors. Their website contains webpages for each department in their organization, for each promotional campaign they create and for every business they are contacted with.
Their website consists of 100s of webpages.
Most small businesses can get all their company information in as few as 5 pages. I have seen businesses with only a single webpage. Their website consists of 1 page.
A website is created the same way a webpage is created. As you create webpages, it is common to add a navigational link to your other pages. This process of binding togather the webpages creates what is commonly know as a website.
A website may contain one or more than one (virtually any number) webpages while a webpage is always a single entity.
What is the difference between a web browser and a software platform?
Web applications are hosted on Web Platforms. For example: Google Chrome is a Web Platform. Google Maps is a Web Application. The browser is the platform, the interactive experience is the application.

What is the concept of security testing?
Today in the world of digitalization, as more and more people are getting dependent on technologies to meet their day to day tasks. Thus, in such scenarios security testing of applications being used, becomes very vital.
Intro to security testing: Security testing is basically a process that tries to penetrate into an application to fetch user/owner sensitive data. Security testing is a part if software testing. It validates confidential data stays confidential. It is performed with the intention of finding out flaws in security mechanisms and revealing the vulnerabilities/weaknesses of software applications. Many software development companies invest thousands of dollars on software testing companies for security testing to ensure that the product delivered is of a high quality.
Concerns related to security are:
- Authentication: origin of the application and its data is genuine.
- Authorization: Only authorized users should get access to application authorized functions.
- Confidentiality: Data/information is secure from theft.
- Integrity: The application and its data is not altered during transmission
Thus, security testing makes applications reliable and reduces the risk of theft or misuse of confidential information that may lead to quality or business loss.
How is it done:
There are two types of people who investigate websites for security holes/vulnerabilities. They are:
- Hackers: Those who try to penetrate through application for making personnel gains.
- Crackers: Those who try to beat security measures in order to find out security holes.
They basically attempt to make different types of attacks on application such as SQL Injection, Cross Site Scripting (XSS), URL Manipulation, Session Hijacking and Brute Force Attack.
1. Usually secure Development Best Practices are used to ensure that an application is secure. Such as:
- Passwords are in encrypted form.
- Browser back-forward buttons do not break secure login to different pages within application.
- Unauthorized user is unable to access page he is not authorized to.
- Sessions should be timed out after a specific time, if a user is not active.
2. Use of Automated Security Scanner tools to verify security holes. With the help of these probability of vulnerability reduces as they use high-level security tests. Various security testing tools are:Netsparker, Fiddler, ZED Attack Proxy (ZAP), Vega, wapiti, SQLMapetc. Sample Test scenarios to give a glimpse of security test cases are:-
- Application should not allow invalid users.
- Verify cookies and session time for application.
- For financial sites, Browser back button should not work.

How do you close a web page that is frozen?
Alot of the times in Windows, a Window has a tendency to freeze. Which can become very annoying and cause the Operating System to freeze if the program persists. Windows freeze due to a # of problems, most which is unknown most of the time. Usually the window will freeze and your mouse pointer will turn into an hour-glass while you see the menu of the window titled "not responding". You can try right-clicking on the program while it's in the taskbar and choosing to "close". However this does not always work. The best way to do this is to press Control+Alt+Delete and then click the button titled "Task Manager". You will then see a list of programs/services running in Windows, find the correct name of the frozen program, highlight it and then click the "End Process" button. However, if it's just a folder window or similar in Windows, this will not be displayed in the task manager. You can try simply right-clicking the frozen window in the taskbar and left-clicking close, repeat this process until the frozen window finally closes. Most of the time this will be successful. In some cases, you may have to do a hard or soft boot if all completely freezes up.

What was the very first graphical Web browser?
The first web browser ever written was called "WorldWideWeb", and it was created by a man named Tim Berners-Lee. While this was the very first web browser, it was not widely used, and was only available for the NeXT platform.
The first widely-used web browser was Mosaic by Marc Andreessen and Eric Bina at the NCSA at the University of Illinois. The first version was written for X-Windows on Unix, and it was later ported to other operating systems.
What is the most popular symmetric encryption system used over the Web?
The most common hybrid system is based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange, which is a method for exchanging private keys using public key encryption. Diffie-Hellman key exchange uses asymmetric encryption to exchange session keys. These are limited-use symmetric keys for temporary communications; they allow two entities to conduct quick, efficient, secure communications based on symmetric encryption, which is more efficient than asymmetric encryption for sending messages. Diffie_Hellman provides the foundation for subsequent developments in public key encryption. It protects data from exposure to third parties, which is sometimes a problem when keys are exchanged out-of-land.
To connect to the Internet, you need a contract with an ISP. The ISP will provide the appropriate equipment (for example: an ADSL router), which is connected to the ISP's offices; you need to connect your computer to this equipment, usually via network cables or Wi-Fi.
