You are a manager of a Web development team for a fictional international delivery service. Please give your fictional business a name, and provide a sentence or two of background information about the company. Your team maintains all of the e-commerce servers, including creating and updating all of the content on the Web pages and the database that stores customer information. These are mission critical servers. 

 

You have 4 clustered nodes that are used for load balancing. These nodes are located in 4 cities around the globe. Two are in the USA, one is in Europe, and one is in Asia.  

 

The choices of cities and countries is yours: 

 

Node1: City___________Country___________

 

Node2: City___________Country___________

 

Node3: City___________Country___________

 

Node4: City___________Country___________

 

Each site is interconnected, and gets regular updates from the home office, located in a different city & country that you will choose.   

 

A TCPDUMP is scheduled daily so the team can analyze real time traffic using WireShark. A team member alerts you to a potential problem found in <NODE OF YOUR CHOICE> capture. There is an alarming amount of activities from port 40452, which shows a redirect to the index.php page instead of the login.phppage. It appears this node has been compromised with a SQL Injection Attack. You rely on these sites so you are unable to shut down all e-commerce activities. 

 

For this Assignment, please write a report to the new CEO. Describe your network as you have set it up. Describe your reasoning for the way you distributed the network. Then, in fully-developed explainations, address each of the following: 

 

1. Explain the immediate steps you would instruct your team to use to contain the attack, but also to maintain the service to the e-commerce site. 
2. Summarize the steps required to mitigate all future occurrences of this type of attack, including  how to verify that the vulnerability has been rectified.  
3. Evaluate the OWASP Top 10 2017, found at  https://www.owasp.org/images/7/72/OWASP_Top_10-2017_%28en%29.pdf.pdf and list three more  potential vulnerabilities. Provide specific mitigation strategies to address each risk.

Case Study: EMPLOYEE HEALTH PROMOTION

 

 

 

A community college has established a Fit and Well for Life (FWL) Committee. The committee is considering adopting the “Dump the Plump” Campaign as its first campaign to promote a healthier lifestyle for its faculty and employees. Teams of 4-10 participants are formed. Each team member sets their own personal weight loss goal for the end of the 8-week campaign, and the personal goals are totaled into a team goal. No more than 50% of each team may have goals of five pounds or less. Twenty minutes of moderate physical activity (walking, swimming, etc.) should be performed six times a week. No special diet is prescribed, but healthy eating tips are promoted regularly. Teams will be judged at the end of the campaign according to the progress they have made towards their goal. Appropriate prizes are awarded to the top three teams.

 

A.After reading this case study, critique this health promotion campaign choice according to the “Common Principles of Learning.” List at least three positive and three negative aspects of this campaign according to these principles.

 

The following year, the FWL Committee chooses the “One Hundred Miles in One Hundred Days” campaign. Participants commit themselves individually to perform a moderate-to-vigorous physical activity daily. A variety of acceptable activities are promoted as the equivalent of walking or running one mile a day (20 minutes of swimming, dancing, biking, etc). Weekly logs are submitted to a department captain. The first three individuals who achieve this are awarded appropriate prizes.

 

B.Critique this health promotion campaign according the “Common Principles of Learning” as above. Is the “One Hundred Miles in One Hundred Days” campaign an improvement on the “Dump the Plump” campaign?

 

C. What advice would you give the FWL Committee based on your analysis of these two campaigns?

The word steganography comes from the ancient Greeks and means “covered writing,” and is defined as the practice of concealing messages or information within other nonsecure text or data.  Although it is a very old process that has its roots in cave paintings, pictures, and other similar types of glyphs that would only have significant meaning to those who knew what to look for, it is still considered an incredibly, and surprisingly, effective way to hide information.

 

• Please explain how steganography works and provide examples of its application.
• What are the advantages and disadvantages of using steganography?
• Can steganography replace the use of encryption?
