A successful attack was performed on a system at time t that gave the attacker full control of the system (including the power to modify the audit log from time t and beyond, but not before time t.) Given the log from time 0 to current such that 0 < t < current, would you still be able to identify that an attack happened on the system? Explain your answer. (Assume that all relevant events are logged in the audit log.)
Yes, we can clearly make out if an attack was made on the system, if the logs were also maintained on a remote log server. Then all we had to do, was verify the local log with remote log. If any changes are found, it implies that an attack was made on the local system and the attacker tried to hamper with the audit logs of the local system.

In power system operations, to simplify real-time computations, approximations are made One example is DC state estimation (SE). In DC SE, an m x 1 measurement vector z can be written as follows: z Hxe where H is the m xn system Jacobian matrix; x is the n x 1 state vector; e is an m x 1 vector of errors in measurements, assumed to be independent of x and H, and the ith entry of e is Gaussian distributed...

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...
