In this lab, we'll investigate the 802.11 wireless network protocol. Before beginning this lab, you might want to re-read Section 6.3 in the text. Since we l1 be delving a bit deeper into 802.11 than is covered in the text, you might want to check out "A Technical Tutorial on the 802.11Protocol," by Pablo Brenner (Breezecom Communications) http://www.sss-mag.com/pdf802_11tut.pdf, and "Understanding...
The purpose of security policies is to help mitigate identified risks. Writing these policies is easier once you have created an asset inventory list, prioritized that list, and identified the major risk exposures found in those assets. The task of identifying your IT assets begins with recognizing that your IT infrastructure and supporting resources can be divided into the seven IT domains. The benefit of identifying the assets and prioritizing them across those domains is being able to document policies...
The discussion: 150 -200 words. Auditing We know that computer security audits are important in business. However, let’s think about the types of audits that need to be performed and the frequency of these audits. Create a timeline that occurs during the fiscal year of audits that should occur and “who” should conduct the audits? Are they internal individuals, system administrators, internal accountants, external accountants, or others? Let me start you: (my timeline is wrong but you should use some...
Option 1: Authentication System For security-minded professionals, it is important that only the appropriate people gain access to data in a computer system. This is called authentication. Once users gain entry, it is also important that they only see data related to their role in a computer system. This is called authorization. For the zoo, you will develop an authentication system that manages both authentication and authorization. You have been given a credentials file that contains credential information for authorized...
Risk management in Information Security today Everyday information security professionals are bombarded with marketing messages around risk and threat management, fostering an environment in which objectives seem clear: manage risk, manage threat, stop attacks, identify attackers. These objectives aren't wrong, but they are fundamentally misleading.In this session we'll examine the state of the information security industry in order to understand how the current climate fails to address the true needs of the business. We'll use those lessons as a foundation...

TRUE/FALSE QUESTIONS: Foundations of Information Security and Assurance 1. There is a problem anticipating and testing for all potential types of non-standard inputs that might be exploited by an attacker to subvert a program. 2. Without suitable synchronization of accesses it is possible that values may be corrupted, or changes lost, due to over-lapping access, use, and replacement of shared values. 3. The biggest change of the nature in Windows XP SP2 was to change all anonymous remote procedure call (RPC)...
