I can argue a little.Honestly it depends.
Some people are great in programming, so in that case their computer knowledge respective to their category is advanced
Another set of people are great in networking, some in database manipulation and another set is good with tech support.
You cannot see someone who's good in all these categories and the many more that I haven't mentioned. I think you get the idea.
Computer knowledge is a broad concept.
I can argue a little.
Computer science == programming.
Network administrating is just a minor part. In fact, I've M.S in computer science and various awards throughout my life, yet I'm ignorant about network administrating. I am working for Modis'. You see, database manipulation, DNS-spoofing, SQL-injections etc. are just the basic concepts which I cannot count as Network Administrating.
I am a computer scientist, which means I've the knowledge of hardware (relatively minor concept), and programming (direct hardware-manipulation via Assembly, reverse-engineeering, debugging, patching and pointing). You see, as someone with a little experience, I can assure you most of the computer science (not engineering) is strictly based off programming. Database, SQL-injection etc. are programming-related. In fact, MySQL itself is a semi-programming language.
SQL = Structured Querying Language
MySQL, and other SQL-software use SQL as their query language. You need the basic knowledge of programming to understand it.
That whole "Computing Knowledge" term is kind of broad and vague. I think here it should apply more to OS, software, hardware and troubleshooting in general over programming as it would be more related to the kind of thread it's being answered on.
Here's how bogdan has defined computer knowledge in this thread: http://malwaretips.com/threads/how-to-share-your-config-read-before-posting.87/
****************************************************************
Current level of security knowledge and awareness
The one that reflects you current security knowledge.
Having a hard time deciding? An advanced user would know the following:
- Basic
- Medium
- Advanced
***************************************************************
- User knows how to distinguish a signed installer from an unsigned one.
- User knows how to create a full partition backup.
- User knows what processes and services usually run on their computer and how they can terminate one of them.
- User knows what processes and services run at start-up and they can prevent one of them from loading.
- User knows how to edit the Windows registry.
True. But Windows Registry is complex, and in my opinion, requires at least the basic amount of programming to understand. I am sure you know that.
Backbox 4 will be out soon, like the end of this month..Im running Backbox 3.13 modified by me
Yeah dude. When I ask myself "how can I learn more about computers other than learning more languages?", the answer is "computer engineering books. Which are insufficient".Based on my observation this is my first time to encounter a girl who have lots of known stuffs install in a system and test beta OS/programs. :O (Thumbs up)
I will agree a bit on Computer Science deals on programming (you are making your own version of software) but it also alongside to understand other concepts like hardware, operating system, computer security and others.
In short computer knowledge will be determine by its analytical and logical thinking outcome but in terms of computer security habits and tweaks.
