This article specifies the development of a system prototype of fingerprint biometric information (SPFBI). Furthermore, it can use as a technological tool so as to access control and user registration in the Amazonia University. To achieve this project, it was decided to use open technologies that allow to modulate its operation to the processes and needs identified in the requirements of the University, these technologies and the fingerprint biometric sensor FMP10A allow us to make changes in its biometric data treatment protocol, in this case, fingerprint capture, a process carried out locally limited to 165 records that can be stored in its flash memory, thus restricting its use and implementation. In this project, additional functions are added, allowing the extraction of data, communication and validation of them. It can be possible because of the centralization of the processes.

The most appropriate way to evaluate the quality of a free or proprietary virtual training platform is based on the usability analysis made by users who through their perception facilitate the quantification of the quality factor which will serve as a guide for the selection and acquisition of this type of applications by the Educational Institutions. To quantify this assessment more accurately, we propose to design a diffuse logic model based on user’s experience, which integrates usability measurement variable for the more precise generation of data than the qualitative methods already used; demonstrating that the output degree of belonging of the variable (Usability) from the proprietary platforms is greater, such model forces developers to question a little more about the characteristics and services of the products they develop.

In this study, the possibilities to encourage the learning of organic nomenclature were analyzed through the implementation of a hybrid learning environment, in which the TICS were included and used as complement and mediation to the eyewitness and in that way, they generated new alternatives in the learning process development. The implemented methodological design is descriptive and quasi experimental with a quantitative approach. An independent variable was established and it corresponds to the hybrid environment, and the learning of organic nomenclature was the dependent variable, intact groups of comparison, which existed already, were taken. A hybrid environment of learning was stated based on ASSURE methodology for the instructional design and which allows, as a final result, to identify a minimum significance level in relation to the organic nomenclature learning on the part of the experimental group.

Open source intelligence (OSINT) is a cyber-intelligence branch used to obtain and analyze information related to potential adversaries, so it can support risk assessments and help to prevent damages against critical assets. This paper presents a research about different OSINT technologies and how these can be used to perform cyber intelligence tasks of a nation. A set of transforms addressed to the Colombian context are presented, which were implemented and contributed to the community allowing to the law enforcement agencies to develop information gathering process from Colombian open sources. However, the real use of the information is given by the implementation of three machine learning models used to perform sentiment analysis over this information, in order to know the opinion of the adversary about certain topic and understand his motivation and, in this way, define proper cyber defense strategies. Finally, some challenges related to the application of OSINT techniques are identified and described regarding its use by state security agencies.
