(#1) In 1987, Denning wrote that the development of a real-time intrusion-detection system is motivated by four factors: 1) most existing systems have security flaws that render them susceptible to intrusions, penetrations, and other forms of abuse; finding and fixing all these deficiencies is not feasible for technical and economic reasons; 2) existing systems with known flaws are not easily replaced by systems that are more secure-mainly because the systems have attractive features that are missing in the more- secure systems, or else they cannot be replaced for economic reasons; 3) developing systems that are absolutely secure is extremely difficult, if not generally impossible; and 4) even the most secure systems are vulnerable to abuses by insiders who misuse their privileges. ****** Are these factors still relevant today? Are there any new factors that motivate the development of real-time intrusion-detection systems. Justify your answer. [50 pts] – Article is included as a .PDF for reference and use.******* (#2) ******* In your own words explain the concept of Network Security Monitoring (NSM). Provide five (5) recommendations made in the text for proper management of NSM devices (servers and sensors), to keep the NSM data secure and protect those systems from attacks. [50 pts] ***********

For this discussion, noting the extent to which we are connected to the Internet, at home, while in class, even in flight, what is your approach to protecting your privacy when online? What measures do you take to safeguard your computer and other devices? And at home, detail and explain what router security settings you chose to apply.

A “feature” is a longer story about a specific subject. It can be a discussion of a person or item in context, or it can tell a story. Split your feature up with at least 3 headings. The headings must pertain to content–for example, a heading cannot be “Introduction.” You’re close to your subject, studying it over the course of this semester and discovering all the details surrounding it. Give your readers perspective by writing in-depth about your chosen topic. Be careful not to plagiarize. If there is a local event that fits into your category, you may attend that, take a lot of photos, and turn it into a feature. Identify relationships between subjects that you routinely cover, and write an exposé. Think about trends, undercurrents, and potentially explosive controversies within your chosen field, and then call some experts, interview people, and turn that kernel of an idea into a full-blown feature. Use at least 2 other sources (3rd requirement for all topics). Use a variety of other voices–quotes–and be sure to tag them, eg., “According to *** who is the chairman of ***” or “In her article entitle *** in Time magazine, *** said, . . . .” Remember to include an enticing title. And remember to use clear introductory and concluding strategies, which you have labelled. An old adage that often rings true reads like this: Posts bring page-viewers, but features bring readers. For a real, online blog, regular readers appreciate the more in-depth articles. Some of the most important features you might write may not get tremendous waves of page-views, but the appreciation you do receive can spread to multitudes of other readers through word of mouth, or linking on social networks. 1200 + words At the end of your feature story, list your sources–whether they be people, print, or other. You can write about anything that has to do with technology. You must use introduction and conclusion strategy listed below.

1. What is the future of public safety technology? Identify at least five areas that you consider are the most important parts when dealing with technology? Summarize what you have learned and explain why public safety managers should be part of the technology innovation process. (Minimum of 100 word response for full credit) 2. Identify at least two types of technology that you believe will continue to grow in the next ten years. Explain how and in what context? Does the technology help or hurt public safety? Examples include nanotechnology or cloaking technology. (Minimum of 100 word response for full credit) 3. Describe the similarities and differences of NIBRS and UCR. (Minimum of 100 word response for full credit) 4. Describe how crime mapping technology can be used in the deployment of law enforcement personnel in the field. This is of particular importance due to the decrease in public funds for many police agencies. (Minimum of 100 word response for full credit) 5. Research the public safety budget process in your jurisdiction. Ascertain and evaluate the types of budgets, budget cycle and time periods used by the specific agency. How is the budget administered? Be specific and list the actual agency. (Minimum of 100 word response for full credit)

You have been hired by a large software development organization to review and recommend to their senior managers whether or not to create a new executive spot that will combine physical and information security activities. Discuss what factors you would consider as part of making such a recommendation. Include in the discussion your position on the integration of physical and information security as a general concept as well as how it might apply to this particular situation.

You get on the elevator with the CEO of your organization and she asks “Do you think we should flatten our network to make it simpler?” You are on the 12th floor heading down and if you can’t answer and explain it in a way the CEO can understand, you will certainly be going down. Give me your elevator pitch, with practical examples and concerns that you could quickly explain before you get to the first floor.

You have been asked to present a paper at a local conference on current threats and vulnerabilities facing information security professionals around the world. In preparation for this presentation, discuss your perspective as to what you would highlight as concerns at the forefront in the security community. Include in the discussion your experience with any of these threats (impact) and how widespread (likelihood) you believe they might be. Also discuss what resources may be available on the Internet to help identify new and persisting threats.

Discuss research/experimenter bias. How does ANOVA help overcome this? Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each of the three experimental design approaches – factorial design, randomized block design and completely randomized design.
