Researchers discover how coffee house hackers are stealing computer data - Science Now 30

The video covers four main topics: a study on attribute amnesia by Penn State University, which shows how people often forget information they don't expect to remember; research by Lisa Scott at the University of Massachusetts Amherst on how labeling helps infants learn; a study on the impact of ocean pH on coral reefs by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution; and a security study by Georgia Institute of Technology on side channel emissions from electronic devices. Each section highlights the implications of these findings and their potential applications.

What is the term used to describe the phenomenon where people forget information they used for a task?

• Attribute Amnesia

• Information Overload

• Memory Loss

• Selective Forgetting

In the study on infant learning, what was found to enhance a baby's ability to differentiate between images?

• Repetitive Sounds

• Unique Labels

• Loud Noises

• Bright Colors

What percentage of marine species rely on coral reefs for survival?

• 75%

• 50%

• 10%

• 25%

What environmental factor is making it easier for bioeroding organisms to damage coral reefs?

• Lower pH Levels

• Higher Salinity

• Increased Water Temperature

• Decreased Oxygen Levels

What is a side channel emission?

• A direct data transmission

• An unintended electronic signal

• A form of wireless communication

• A type of internet connection

How can hackers exploit side channel emissions?

• By using a direct internet connection

• By hacking into Wi-Fi networks

• By analyzing low power electronic signals

• By intercepting phone calls

What is one suggested method to reduce the risk of side channel emissions being exploited?

• Enhance internet security

• Weaken the signals

• Use larger antennas

• Increase device power
