Detailed Description:
Large enterprises of a thousand persons or more often have distinctly distinct data security architectures than lesser businesses. Typically they treat their data security as if they were still little companies.
This paper endeavors to demonstrate that not only do large businesses have an entire ecology of focused programs, specific to large businesses and their needs, but that this software has distinct security implications than buyer or small enterprise software. identifying these dissimilarities, and analyzing the way this can be taken advantage of by an attacker, is the key to both striking and keeping safe a large enterprise.
The Web applications are the important part of your business every day, they help you handle your intellectual property, increase your sales, and keep the trust of your customers. But there's the problem that applications re fast becoming the preferred attack vector of hackers. For this you really need something that makes your application secure.
And, with the persistent condition of today's attacks, applications can easily be get infected when security is not considered and scoped into each phase of the software development life cycle, from design to development to testing and ongoing maintenance of the application. When you take a holistic approach to your application security, you actually enhance your ability to produce and manage stable, secure applications. Applications need training and testing from the leading team of ethical hackers, for this there should be an authentic plan to recover these issues that can help an organization to plan, test, build and run applications smartly and safely.
Large enterprises of a thousand people or even more have distinctly different information security architectures than many other smaller companies. Actually, they treat their information security as if they were still small companies.
We are going to discuss some attempts to demonstrate that not only do large companies have an entire ecology of specialized software, specific to large companies and their needs, but that this software has different security implications than consumer or small business software for the applications. Recognizing these differences, and examining the way this can be taken advantage of by an attacker, is the key to both attacking and defending a large enterprise. It’s really important to cover up the security procedures in the large enterprise.
Key Features:
· Web application security checking from development through output
· Security check web APIs and world wide web services that support your enterprise

Thick Client Penetration Testing Modern Approaches and Techniques.pdfElanusTechnologies
Thick client applications are programs that can operate independently without a constant server connection by containing locally stored resources, unlike thin clients. Thick clients are commonly used for interacting with private data and pose security risks if they are legacy applications. Some common vulnerabilities of thick clients include sensitive data disclosure, denial of service attacks, improper access control, and insecure storage. Penetration testing of thick clients involves gathering information on technologies, behaviors, user inputs, and security techniques used, then mapping, enumerating, scanning for vulnerabilities, identifying and assessing vulnerabilities, and attempting exploitation of potential vulnerabilities found. Elanus Technologies specializes in assessing thick client security through static analysis, dynamic analysis, penetration testing, configuration reviews, and network traffic analysis.

“Verify and never trust”: The Zero Trust Model of information securityAhmed Banafa
The Zero Trust Model of information security assumes there are no trusted interfaces, applications, traffic, networks or users. It was developed by John Kindervag as an evolution from the old "trust but verify" model, since recent breaches have shown that trusting without verifying is risky. The Zero Trust Model has three key concepts - ensure all resources are accessed securely regardless of location, adopt a least privilege strategy and strictly enforce access control, and inspect and log all traffic. It also shifts the primary attack vector from outside-in to inside-out, as internal users accessing external sites can now be just as vulnerable as external users. Implementing the Zero Trust Model involves steps like updating firewalls, establishing protected enclaves, and deploy

The document discusses various measures that companies can take to avoid cyber attacks. It recommends that companies train employees on cybersecurity awareness, keep systems fully updated to patch vulnerabilities, implement zero trust and SSL inspection for security, examine permissions of frequently used apps, create mobile device management plans, use passwordless authentication and behavior monitoring, regularly audit networks to detect threats, develop strong data governance, automate security practices, and have an incident response plan in place. Taking a proactive approach to cybersecurity through multiple defensive strategies is crucial for businesses of all sizes to protect against increasing cyber attacks.
Application Security Testing for Software Engineers: An approach to build sof...Michael Hidalgo
This talk was presented at the 7th WCSQ World Congress for Software Quality in Lima, Perú on Wednesday, 22nd March 2017.
Writing secure code certainly is not an easy endeavor. In the book titled “Writing Secure Code: Practical Strategies and Proven Techniques for Building Secure Applications in a Networked World (Developer Best Practices)” authors Howard and LeBlanc talk about the so called attacker’s advantage and the defenders dilemma and they put into perspective the fact that developers (identified as defenders) must build better quality software because attackers have the advantage.
In this dilemma, software applications must be on a state of defense because attackers are out there taking advantage of any minor mistake, whereas the defender must be always vigilant, adding new features to the code, fixing issues, adding new engineers to the team. All this conditions are important when it comes to software security.
Sadly, strong understanding of software security principles is not always a characteristic of most software engineers but we can’t blame them. Writing code is a complex task per se, the abstraction level required, along with choosing and/or writing the accurate algorithm and dealing with tight schedules seems to be always a common denominator and the outcome when talking to developers.
This talk also includes techniques, tools and guidance that software engineers can use to perform Application Security testing during the development stage, enabling them to catch vulnerabilities at the time they are created.
What is zero trust model of information security?Ahmed Banafa
The zero trust model of information security assumes there are no trusted interfaces, applications, traffic, networks, or users. It requires that all resources be accessed securely on a need-to-know basis and that systems verify and never trust. The model has shifted from protecting networks from outside attacks to also guarding against inside threats, as the primary attack vector has changed from outside-in to inside-out. Implementing a zero trust model involves deploying technologies like next-generation firewalls, sandboxing, and access control to securely verify all users and protect resources.

NURS 6050: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
Walden University
In 2010 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted; the hope was to expand access to medical care, make coverage more affordable, and decrease the number of people without medical insurance. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded and improved health insurance coverage in two primary ways. First, the number of individuals receiving insurance coverage grown by increasing access to coverage through Medicaid expansion and providing subsidies to purchase private insurance on the health care exchanges. Second, the ACA upgraded the quality and scope of coverage by improving benefit design, including implementing the essential health benefits (Willison & Singer, 2017). People who did not have coverage through their employer or Medicaid were required to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. The Marketplace was created as a one-stop-shop for people to view multiple plans and purchase insurance. Just because you have access to health care insurance does not mean you are going to receive quality health care (Teitelbaum, 2018).
Both parties have asked that the ACA be repealed or replaced for multiple reasons. Every Republican presidential candidate for 2016 has called for the repeal of the ACA. Some, but not all, Republican candidates have proposed health policies that they would like to put in place after repeal, but there is no broad agreement on a replacement for the ACA (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). The federal government would spend $90.9 billion less on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). State governments as a whole would spend $5.2 billion more on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). Healthcare is a priority to many Americans for obvious reasons; it was more costly for those with preexisting conditions before the ACA to obtain Medical Insurance. With the ACA the income guidelines for Medicaid where changed so additional people qualified that didn’t prior. As a Behavioral Health Nurse, I am a fan of anyone and everyone having access to Healthcare Services. I have seen to many times my patient not have the money for their medications because insurance was canceled so they go off their medications, they become unstable and ended up in the Emergency Department and admitted Inpatient, costing more money, hurting themselves and their loved ones.
Politicians are aware that election time is the best time to play the tug of war game with the heavy ticket items to capture someone votes. Republicans ran hard on promises to get rid of the law in every election since it passed in 2010. But when the GOP finally got control of the House, the Senate and the White House in 2017, Republicans found
they could not reach agreement
on how to "repeal and replace" the law (Kaiser Health News, 2018). And political strategists s.

Discussion Board Week 1-Original Post
11/30/2020
I have worked in an outpatient behavioral health clinic for the past seven years with many different providers. I live in a rural community, many patients wait six to twelve months to be seen. Patients being treated for Attention Deficit Disorder must be officially tested before being seen by a Psychologist. For this discussion board post, I have changed the name of my patient to Paul to ensure patient confidentially. The provider I worked with this particular patient will also be referred to as PMHNP to ensure provider confidentiality.
Paul was a ten-year-old Caucasian male referred to our clinic diagnosed per DSM criteria, confirmed via Psychologist testing with ADHD. When he saw the Psychologist, he was also diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety. He struggled with concentration, hyperactivity, impulse control, and disorganization. He presented to his appointment with his mother and father, clean, well-nourished, pleasant, interactive with staff, reported no medication allergies, current medication Zyrtec for seasonal allergies. Paul just had his well-child exam and is current on vaccinations and his primary care provider completed lab work to include CBC, CMP, TSH, Vit D, B12, and A1C, all have returned normal. Family history reported father has a history of ADHD (never medicated), brother has a history of depression and anxiety (never medicated treating with psychotherapy), no other significant family history to report. Paul’s current weight at his appointment was 30kg.
PMHNP spent one hour with Paul and his parents for the initial new patient appointment (Thursday). It was decided Paul would be prescribed Strattera (atomoxetine) 40mg once a day for one week then increase to 80mg once a day. I returned to work on Monday and received a call from Paul’s mom, she said he was acting strange. He was tearful, had been in his room with the door closed for most of the weekend, she stated on Sunday she went into his room and he was crying and said he was just thinking about dying and his parents dying. She stated he had already had his meds Sunday so she kept him with her that entire day and made Sunday night a campout night in the Livingroom so he would think it was fun and she could keep a close eye on him. I had a cancelation that morning for him to come to see PMHNP and he was in to see her within twenty minutes and removed from Strattera. His parents decided medications were no longer the route they wanted to try for treatment and a referral was made for psychotherapy.
The only medication Paul takes on occasion is Zyrtec which is in an antihistamine drug class, Strattera is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor; there is no known drug interaction between the two medications. Reflecting on his age and the medication, Strattera has a black box labeled for suicidal ideation with adolescents dia.

Melissa Shortridge
Week 6
COLLAPSE
My own attitude has changed from lack of understanding to enlightenment over the years. In elementary school I never experienced students with disabilities in my classrooms, growing up. But as the years went on and legislation changed students with disabilities started trickling into general education classrooms. They were always ignored by other students and often times had an aide to assist them with assignments. As an adult my heart has opened up to accept all types of people. In the Pennhurst documentary, it was reiterated, they are just people (Baldini, 1968). Which is my outlook on how to treat everyone. Every single person is a human being, treat them the way you wish to be treated. Everyone no matter their race, disability or socio-economic status deserves to be treated humanely.
As an educator I have worked with several different types of students. Students from low socio-economic areas, behavioral issues, vision impairments, hearing impairments, with autism, hyper activity and down syndrome, and with all of these students I have given them my best effort to show them that they are students first. Slavin and Schunk (2017) said it best, “Each student has many characteristics, and the disability is only one of them. To define the child in terms of the disability does him or her an injustice” (p. 235). It is our role as an educator to incorporate different learning styles to give each student, regardless of disabilities, the education that they deserve.
Welcoming students with disabilities into my classroom will be an important aspect in my role as an educator. Allowing each student to feel love and acceptance by peers is important for any students success. Van Brummelen (2009) states, “ It is important to appreciate students with special needs for who they are. Always look beyond their disabilities and teach them as whole persons” (p. 208). Being an advocate for my students with learning disabilities will garner them respect and dignity that they need to be self sufficient. In the Pennhurst documentary, the children did not have complete proper advocacy from the people that worked with them. They were simply shuffled along and not given the proper education and care that they needed to be self-sufficient (Baldini, 1968). “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked” (Psalm 82:3-4, New International Version). It is our Godly duty to defend individuals who can not defend themselves. In His eyes we are all created equal and in that we all deserve equal treatment and opportunities.

Melissa is a 15-year-old high school student. Over the last week, she had been feeling tired and found it difficult to stay awake in class. By the time the weekend had arrived, she developed a sore throat that made it difficult to eat and even drink. Melissa was too tired to get out of bed, and she said her head ached. On Monday morning, her mother took her to her doctor. Upon completing the physical exam, he told Melissa the lymph nodes were enlarged in her neck and she had a fever. He ordered blood tests and told Melissa he thought she had mononucleosis, a viral infection requiring much bed rest.

1. The document describes measuring the angle θ between momentum vectors of particles π- and Σ- produced in a particle interaction using a bubble chamber photograph. The angle can be determined by drawing tangents to the particle tracks and measuring the angle between them.
2. An alternative method to measure the angle not requiring a protractor is described using ratios of distances along the tangents.
3. Instructions are given to estimate uncertainties in measurements taken from repeated readings using calculations of average and standard deviation.
Measurement of the angle θ For better understanding .docxwkyra78
Measurement of the angle θ
For better understanding I am showing you a different particle track diagram bellow. Where at
point C particle 𝜋 − 𝑎𝑛𝑑 Σ− are created and the Σ− decays into 𝜋 ∓ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 K− particles
The angle θ between the π− and Σ− momentum vectors can be determined by drawing tangents
to the π− and Σ− tracks at the point of the Σ− decay. We can then measure the angle between
the tangents using a protractor. Alternative method which does not require a protractor is also
possible. Let AC and BC be the tangents to the π− and Σ− tracks respectively. Drop a
perpendicular (AB) and measure the distances AB and BC. The ratio AB/BC gives the tangent of
the angle180◦−θ. It should be noted that only some of the time will the angle θ exceed 90◦ as
shown here.
Determining the uncertainty of Measurements
In part B, It is asked to estimate the uncertainty of your measurements of 𝜃 and r.
Uncertainty of measurement is the doubt that exists about the result of any measurement. You
might think that well-made rulers, clocks and thermometers should be trustworthy, and give
the right answers. But for every measurement - even the most careful - there is always a margin
of doubt.
It is important not to confuse the terms ‘error’ and ‘uncertainty’.
Error is the difference between the measured value and the ‘true value’ of the thing being
measured.
Uncertainty is a quantification of the doubt about the measurement result
Since there is always a margin of doubt about any measurement, we need to ask ‘How big is the
margin?’ and ‘How bad is the doubt?’ Thus, two numbers are really needed in order to quantify
an uncertainty. One is the width of the margin, or interval. The other is a confidence level, and
states how sure we are that the ‘true value’ is within that margin.
You can increase the amount of information you get from your measurements by taking a
number of readings and carrying out some basic statistical calculations. The two most
important statistical calculations are to find the average or arithmetic mean, and the standard
deviation for a set of numbers.
The ‘true’ value for the standard deviation can only be found from a very large (infinite) set of
readings. From a moderate number of values, only an estimate of the standard deviation can be
found. The symbol s is usually used for the estimated standard deviation.
Suppose you have a set of n readings. Start by finding the average:
For the set of readings x={16, 19, 18, 16, 17, 19, 20, 15, 17 and 13}, the average is �̅� =
∑ 𝑥𝑖
𝑛
=
17.
Next find (𝑥𝑖 − �̅�)
2
Then 𝑠 = √
(𝑥𝑖−�̅�)
2
𝑛−1
= 2.21
Lifetime calculation
In part C you are asked to determine the life time of the neutral particles from their
momentums.
The Σ− lifetime can be approximately determined using the measured values of the Σ− track
lengths. The average momentum of the Σ− particle can be found from its initial and fin

Business Need
The project manager will be hosting an evening lounge event that will be targeting the clientele to an upscale lounge to be built in downtown. Through such an event the city will have a positive exposure.
There will be need for effective marketing, music, modern décor and most likely investors. The menu for food and drinks will need to be within budget. The venue needs to have amiable space and adequate seats for all guests.
The first step to this project involves coming up with a plan on a piece of paper. Once this is done the next step will involve selection of vendors to various goods and services. Once everything has been put to perspective the next stage will be to involve investors who will include local business owners. These investors will be encouraged to do so with the exchange for them to market and advertise their products at the event. We will have three packages for investors including Silver, Gold and Platinum packages.
Project Objectives
The proposal is to have a social entertainment evening lounge in Chicago. The project managers will be showcasing the new concept of entertainment by holding a series of events known as “The Place to be!”
· The events will be used to showcase the atmosphere that the new lounge will be offering
· The events will offer the professional audiences an opportunity to network while at the same time being entertained.
· The events will be targeting an audience of 150 attendants
· To have an environment where attendants can dance, dine and drink socially while discussing business.
Approach
This project will be managed in accordance with the PMI approach as modified.
Assumptions/Constraints/Dependencies
The assumption is that with the provision of an exquisite and upscale venue that is mature in Chicago, IL, will be successful due to the fact that there is no such a venue within a 100 mile radius.
One of the likely constraint is finding a venue that grabs attention of the targeted crowd.
The success of these events depends on attracting two sets of individuals. One of them is investors and the other is private professionals who will attend a social event at night.
Initial Risk Factors
· Obtaining a liquor license on time for the event is the major risk factor.
· Failure of attendees despite investing money and time is another risk.
· Failing to complete the organizational plans within 30 days before the event series begin.
· Not attracting any viable investors
Regulatory cost/impact
One of the needed licensing is from the city council where I will be required to get a special event license. This will enable us to have alcohol i.

Mediation

AMU

Mediation
Recently, I had a dispute with a friend based on sharing of roles and duties at work. If I were to use a mediation to solve the conflict I would have used facilitative mediation instead of evaluative mediation. Facilitative mediation refers to the types of solving conflicts where the mediator creates a process to assist the parties in reaching into a mutual agreement. Evaluative mediation on the other hand refers to the type of mediation where the judge helps the parties in reaching into a resolution through using the weakness of the case (Shrout & Bolger, 2017). The nature of the dispute plays a very huge role when choosing the type of mediation style to use. Since some cases can not fit well or makes it hard to find a solution when using a certain mediation style. For instance work related disputes and family related disputes require mediation that won’t seem to favor one party.
I would use transformative mediation, since it is mostly bases on improving the personal power of each party (Folberg & Taylor, 2016). Also transformative mediation mainly helps in creating a sense of understanding between the two parties through communication so as to solve the dispute. And lastly the reason why I would use the mediation is because; the process that is used does not favor one party. During the process, the mediator listens to both parties and from this he or she is able to help in making the two understand each other and be able to come into a mutual agreement.

Response 1 PD
Question 1
A set of beliefs, norms and values that is shared by a group, culture is a systemic sense that can create a common commitment to an organization’s mission. With identifying markers that extend beyond the individual, it can be represented in a fabric of shared themes and feelings. Whether displayed in forms of dress, symbols, verbal phrases or typical behaviors, its permeance can be silent in its mode of action, yet quite visible to internal and external stakeholders (Daft, 2018).
Serving two fundamental and critical functions, the culture of an organization can be a catalyst in uniting members in how they relate to one another within the organization and how the members follow the same process in relation to the outside environment (Daft, 2018). However, although it is often associated with ethical decision making (Kara, Rojas-Mendez & Turan), the element of inequality can create fear and discourse if an unrealistic and bias culture themes are dictated, thus resulting in disagreement or conflict with management. Therefore, the perception of stakeholders or groups of interest regarding the cultural practices of the organization may not be entirely correct (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019).
Directly related to the perception of the value system of the organization and its management, the acceptable cultural differences that shape the internal behavior of members can have an impact in external relationships (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019). However, as Daft (2018) noted, a mechanistic or controlling system may block any organic input,.

Application security in large enterprises (part 2)
Student Name:
) (
Instructor Name
)
Detailed Description:
Large enterprises of a thousand persons or more often have
distinctly distinct data security architectures than lesser
businesses. Typically they treat their data security as if they
were still little companies.
This paper endeavors to demonstrate that not only do large
businesses have an entire ecology of focused programs, specific
to large businesses and their needs, but that this software has
distinct security implications than buyer or small enterprise
software. identifying these dissimilarities, and analyzing the
way this can be taken advantage of by an attacker, is the key to
both striking and keeping safe a large enterprise.
The Web applications are the important part of your business
every day, they help you handle your intellectual property,
increase your sales, and keep the trust of your customers. But
there's the problem that applications re fast becoming the
preferred attack vector of hackers. For this you really need
2. something that makes your application secure.
And, with the persistent condition of today's attacks,
applications can easily be get infected when security is not
considered and scoped into each phase of the software
development life cycle, from design to development to testing
and ongoing maintenance of the application. When you take a
holistic approach to your application security, you actually
enhance your ability to produce and manage stable, secure
applications. Applications need training and testing from the
leading team of ethical hackers, for this there should be an
authentic plan to recover these issues that can help an
organization to plan, test, build and run applications smartly
and safely.
Large enterprises of a thousand people or even more have
distinctly different information security architectures than many
other smaller companies. Actually, they treat their information
security as if they were still small companies.
We are going to discuss some attempts to demonstrate that not
only do large companies have an entire ecology of specialized
software, specific to large companies and their needs, but that
this software has different security implications than consumer
or small business software for the applications. Recognizing
these differences, and examining the way this can be taken
advantage of by an attacker, is the key to both attacking and
defending a large enterprise. It’s really important to cover up
the security procedures in the large enterprise.
Key Features:
· Web application security checking from development through
output
· Security check web APIs and world wide web services that
support your enterprise
· Effortlessly organize, view and share security-test outcomes
and histories
· Endow broader lifecycle adoption through security automation
· Increase security information over your whole enterprise
· Verify compliance with guidelines and security policies
3. · Accessibility of the application by the Internet;
· If the application provides the ability to method or supply get
get access to sensitive data;
· Source of application's development; such as, in-house,
bought, or bound for;
· Extent that protected practices are used in the application's
development method;
· Existence of an productive, recurring method to monitor,
recognize, and remediate or correct vulnerabilities
· Reality of a periodic promise method to validate individually
the security of the application
Applications cover the gamut of an organization's procedures.
From accounting packages and intranet portals to
comprehensive enterprise resource planning (ERP) schemes,
almost 100 per hundred of an organization's mission-critical
data flows through these submissions. The function of IT
auditors, therefore, is to determine if correct controls are in
location to defend the data residing in these schemes.
Auditors can use various advances when carrying out a
comprehensive review of an application's security controls.
Discovering about each of these evaluation methods will endow
auditors to determine ahead of time which procedure will yield
the most optimal results as well as supply auditors with the
information they need to better assess an application's security
functionality.
Evaluations of an application's security characteristics can
range in detail and scope. The most broadly used methods for
evaluating scheme security controls encompass the use of high-
level conceive audits, black-box or penetration tests, and source
cipher reconsiders. The next three parts supply a more
comprehensive description of each assessment choice.
Most accomplished security professionals agree that, along with
a strong backdrop in technology, a thorough comprehending of
the enterprise is of paramount importance when it arrives to
conceiving protected solutions for that business. Though some
purist security technologists may find it difficult to accept, it is
4. nevertheless factual that security is there for the enterprise and
not the other way around. Security lives to endow the
enterprise, not to be an impediment
Technologies Involved:
Conceiving for security in software is futile except you plan to
proceed on the design and incorporate essential protected
controls throughout the development stage of your programs
development lifecycle. It is imperative that secure
characteristics are not ignored when design artifacts are
converted into syntax constructs that a compiler or interpreter
can realize. Composing protected cipher is no different than
composing code that is working, reliable, or scalable.
Managing security actually means that understanding the risks
and deciding how much risk is acceptable. Everyone knows that
different levels of security are appropriate for different
organizations. No network is 100 percent secure, so don’t aim
for that level of protection. You should look for the major
vulnerabilities that you can address with your existing
resources.
Computer networks have numerous advantages all over the
Internet. Connecting your network to the Internet provides
access to an enormous amount of information and allows you to
share information on an incredible scale. However, the
communal nature of the Internet, which creates so many
benefits, also offers malicious users easy access to numerous
targets. The Internet is only as secure as the networks it
connects, so we all have a responsibility to ensure the safety of
our networks.
You should follow these steps that can provide you the insight
of best specific issues:
· Understanding networking concepts
· Identifying vulnerabilities on your network
· Creating security policies and selecting and configuring a
firewall
· We also focus on wide area networking and network
management
5. 1) Use Strong Passwords and Change Them Regularly
Passwords are actually the first part of defense in preventing
unauthorized access to any computer. Regardless of type or
operating system, a password should be required to log in.
Although a strong password will not prevent attackers from
trying to gain access, it can slow them down and discourage
them.
Strong passwords should include:
· Be at least eight characters long
· Include a combination of upper case and lower case letters,
numbers and at least one special character, such as a hash.
2) Passwords and Strong Authentication
Strong, or multi-factor, authentication combines multiple
authentication methods resulting in stronger security or the
password we required. Other than this authentication method
another one is used now a day. For example a smartcard or key -
fob, or a fingerprint iris scan and face recognition.
3) Use a Firewall
We should have a firewall to protect against threats from
outside sources. While anti-virus software will help to find and
destroy infected software that has already entered, a firewall's
job is to prevent these malicious viruses from entering in the
first place. Actually anti-virus can be thought of as infection
control while the firewall has the role of disease prevention.
Managing Technologies:
· Clearly define your change management plan that will help in
firewall management authority and a documented process can
also help prevent unwanted changes to the current configuration
of the network security.
· Test major firewall changes before going live. Make sure to
test major firewall changes before they are implemented in
production. If possible, build a testing environment that mirrors
production systems.
· Protect yourself by taking a configuration snapshot before
making major changes to your firewall and this is one of the
best protection way.
6. · Monitor user access to the firewall configuration. User access
logs can act as an elementary detection system, potentially
revealing unauthorized access attempts from within or outside
the network security.
· Company should schedule regular policy audits because over
time, rules may not match the actual security policy and unused
rules may clog traffic and present a barrier to network changes.
Technologies involved in Large Enterprises:
IM applications are peer-to-peer software that permit text and
voice communication between two or more users. Widespread
IM submissions are Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger,
Google converse, and AOL Instant Messenger. Risk modeling
physical exercises for IM submissions generally includes the
following components:
· An overview of the submission and its security objectives.
· An identification of assets.
· A detection and ranking of risks.
· An identification of vulnerabilities.
· Below is a recount of each element.
Security Objectives
The application's security objectives should be asserted
apparently. For an IM submission, these might be correct
authentication of user credentials, secure connection between
IM purchasers, availability of the messaging service, and
protected meeting management.
Submission Overview
IM submissions normally have client-server architecture. As a
outcome, it is significant to identify the constituents of the
submission and the communication scheme among these
disparate, yet connected architecture segments. The major
components of an IM submission and its purposes encompass:
· Purchaser undertakings (e.g., sending and receiving notes,
supplementing and deleting associates, and customizing the
purchaser environment).
· Server activities (e.g., organizing the database of users
subscribed to the IM service, overseeing meeting minutia, and
7. providing notification functionality).
· IM connection protocols (e.g., recognizing exact note formats
and sequences).
Identifying Assets
The IM programs stores and transmits sensitive data, including
client names and passwords, profiles and other customized
client facts and figures, and files dispatched and received.
Detecting Threats
The IM application's client-server architecture may be
susceptible to risks, such as:
· Personal thefts, which are exploited by feeble authentication
and meeting administration mechanisms.
· Facts and figures robberies, which are exploited by insecure
get access to to command means.
· Privacy breaks, which are exploited through feeble
authentication or server defense means.
· Isolated cipher executions, which are exploited through buffer
overflows.
· Communal engineering methods, which are exploited through
phishing and cross-site scripts attacks.
Finding out Vulnerabilities
One of the most crucial steps in the threat modeling method is
recognizing the application's vulnerabilities. These may
encompass:
· Message field overflows. The attacker could assemble a note
that determinants the remote IM purchaser to smash into by
overflowing the note area or by overflowing other IM
constituents.
· File move buffer overruns. A document title with excessively
long names can cause a buffer overflow when the client's IM
endeavors to download the document from the server.
· Cross-site scripting. HTTP-based IM constituents can permit
malicious scripts to be injected and performed at the user's end.
· Username spoofs. An attacker can spoof a legitimate meeting
ID and flood an isolated user client without being recognized.
8. For more data on risk modeling, IT auditors can visit
Microsoft's submission risk modelingWorld Wide Web sheet.
Microsoft furthermore has evolved a free threat modeling device
that can be downloaded from its World Wide Web location.
Cryptography
As cited earlier, submissions use encryption techniques when
saving or transmitting perceptive data. When reconsidering
cryptographic vulnerabilities, auditors should identify key
lifetime, storage, transmission, and disposal means as well as
the encryption algorithms and key exchange protocols being
used.
Future Trends:
For bigger enterprises, cloud-based services will endow 30-40
per hundred of enterprise functionality while still relying on
homegrown IT consigned solutions for the residual 70-60 per
hundred of functionality. As this change happens interior
answers will be sustained through newer private/hybrid cloud
platforms.
Impact
The internal IT function will evolve the art of operating in the
hybrid environment where, on one hand, it will dispute and
leverage ISVs (independent programs vendors) and cloud
service providers to incorporate specific functions/features to
support unique requirements; on the other hand, internally with
enterprise purposes, it will drive the mandate of simplification
and standardization.
Different in the past where out-of-the-box functionality was
customized due to free get access to modify an on-premises
solution, the new cloud-enabled environment will serve as a
deterrent to propel only exclusive obligation support where
comparable benefit is to be gained.
