High deliverables for the project include; what software (NOS, Computer OS, anti-virus, and applications, firewalls) is needed, what hardware (computers, servers, cables, routers, VOIP, firewalls), is needed, documentation, budget, scheduling, planning. I plan on completing this project using a team of four people that are highly knowledgeable in computer networks as well as computer systems. 1. The first step is to determine what antivirus software is needed or if the current one is sufficient, but to just a newer version of what is already installed. To determine if the current one can be updated, it has to be compatible with updates to the server such as the OS, NOS. With confidential information, it is imperative that the antivirus/firewall software and firewall hardware can handle the possibility of network intrusions...

...is a program that either pretends to have, or is described as having, a set of useful or desirable features, but actually contains a damaging payload. True Trojan horses are not technically viruses, since they do not replicate, however many viruses and worms use Trojan horse tactics to infiltrate a system. Although Trojans are not technically viruses, they can be just as destructive. 2. A virus or malware can impact which of the three tenets of information systems security (CIA)? Describe how it impacts it as well. Virus maybe can send files to other people that don’t allow reading these files. It will affect Confidentiality. Some virus will break program. Then these programs cannot run. This wills effect Availability. Some virus will change some file in a program. This wills effect Integrity. 3. Once a malicious file is found on your computer, what are the default settings for USB/removable device scanning? What should an organization do regarding use of USB hard drives and slots on existing computers and devices? Besides Vendor IDs and Product IDs, some devices also have a serial number associated with them. The “Serial Number Descriptor” string is optional, but a fair number of devices such as thumb drives, removable USB hard drives, PDAs and cell phones have them. While most of these scanning and tracking details would be of most use with the “USB Mass Storage devices containing malware” and the “U3 thumb drives with "evil" autorun payloads” categories, they...

...Administrator: Theresa Burke, Project Management Office BACKGROUND: Good Health Medical Services opened its doors in 1997. The company started out with just one primary physician and one specialty physician, which was an Obstetrician/Gynecologist to assist with the women’s health. The company was slow to start up and therefor manual record keeping was not a problem. The head receptionist was able to maintain the records in a timely fashion and was able to keep records up to date. Good Health Medical Services has grown over the years from seeing an average of twenty patients a week to over two hundred patients a week. The staff has also grown and now has over ten specialty physicians that range from Pediatrics to Oncology. The record keeping staff has grown as well going from one person to three people. There have been several cases of misfiled information or lost or missing files and the directors want to lessen some of these factors, save money and move into the current technology world of Electronic Medical Records (EMR). Purpose/ Business Need: The directors feel that there are several benefits to be had by moving from paper files to electronic files. The benefits of EMR are less paper files, savings on paper, less maintenance to the files and manpower being put into looking for the files. Plus, many times a patient can be seen by more than one physician at the facility. If the file is electronic that can assist the physician in updating files. With today’s technology...

...Joseph W Costa LOT2 Task 2 5/24/2013 Best Practices in Prevention of DoS/DDoS Attacks This guide is meant to describe best practices for the detection and prevention of denial of service attacks, such as the event that recently occurred at the university. It was determined that based on current security guidelines and current controls in place, the university was still severely vulnerable from an internal aspect and all identified gaps need to be addressed and resolved. Each control described below will provide a more in depth look at the overall strategy of how a network should be protected but still allow for the functionality that is required to maintain normal operations. Know the Signs of an Attack An essential part of network security is knowing what the characteristics of an attack are, so they can be countered or prevented. When the university suffered an overwhelming internal DDoS attack, it required administrators to reevaluate its security guidelines based on what was known about the attack. As seen at the time of attack, certain characteristics were: Network performance unusually slow Website was unavailable for at least 24 hours Thousands of bogus HTTP packets sent to internal web server Taking these factors into account, it can be safe to say it was an actual attack rather than just legitimate network usage. Now that it is known what such an event would look like, identifying similar attacks in the future will be much easier and may allow...

...goods because they do not have the technical expertise to establish the IT infrastructure to catch up with, and to remain profitable and competitive amidst the changes in the industry, growing competition and other external factors. Thus, this study allows distributors as end users to be given the idea about Cloud Computing Technology that is centered on the assessment of their own business environment prior to and when already using this technology. This study is designed for these local distributors of consumer goods in Zamboanga City. This study will allow them to acknowledge the benefits and advantages that they may be able to reap when moving into or adopting this innovation in their core operations – inventory monitoring, sales updating and reporting. Although there is a great potential for success, this study also looks into the risks involved but will also give the end users the possible mitigations to eliminate, to reduce or to control such risks. Moreover, this industry study will also give them an assessment of other factors that may affect its implementation such as legal and technical ones. B.

...1.The creation of a strategy through the recognition of threats and risks facing a company, with an eye to ensure that personnel and assets are protected and able to function in the event of a disaster. Business continuity planning (BCP) involves defining potential risks, determining how those risks will affect operations, implementing safeguards and procedures designed to mitigate those risks, testing those procedures to ensure that they work, and periodically reviewing the process to make sure that it is up to date. 2.When a business continuity plan is correctly used it can help reduce operational risks. Operational risk is the risk of loss experienced from internal processes as a result of external events. These internal processes could have failed completely or simply been inadequate. This does include calculating the legal risk as well but does not take into account business risk that is based in strategy or reputation. Some examples of operational risk are losses arising because of internal or external frauds, natural disaster, failed transaction processing or inability to meet the commitment of service, and the disruption of business or system failures. 3.There are many different approaches to BCP and DRP. Some companies address these processes separately, whereas others focus on a continuous process that interweaves the plans.

FLEMINS MUTSOLI VUDOHI- HD211-0977/2011 DATE OF SUBMITION: 11TH OCTOBER FACILITATOR: MR MBITHI INTRODUCTION An information system (IS) is any combination of information technology and people’s activities using that technology to support operations, management, and decision making. In any business organization, data is the most important thing. Different types of information are produced from data.

As a result, it becomes more difficult to process the data manually. With the use of information system, data can be processed with rapid speed and information is generated quickly. To run a business successfully, effective and timely decision-making is very important. The decision making is based on the information we get from the stored data. The history of information systems coincides with the history of computer science that began long before the modern discipline of computer science emerged in the twentieth century. Regarding the circulation of information, numerous information systems still exist today that are continuously updated to improve data integrity and to improve the social effectiveness and efficiency of the whole process. In general, information systems are...
