...ter. Scenario: An employee hacked into the human resource records system at the employee’s place of business and changed the employee’s base salary rate to obtain a pay raise. The employee did this by spoofing an IP address in order to eavesdrop on the network. Once the employee identified where the data was stored and how to modify it, the employee made the changes and received two paychecks with the new amount. Fortunately, an auditor happened to discover the error. The auditor sent an email to several individuals within the organization to let them know there was a potential problem with the employee’s paycheck. However, the employee was able to intercept the message and craft fake responses from the individuals the original email was sent to. The employee and the auditor exchanged emails back and forth until the employee was soon given access permissions for some other financial records. With this new information, the employee was able to lower the salaries of the president of the company and several other employees and then to include the salary difference in the employee’s own paycheck. The IT staff determined that the spoofing that occurred that allowed the employee to gain access to the human resources system was caused by a lack of authentication and encryption controls. As such, a local root certificate authority was installed to implement a public key infrastructure (PKI) in which all communication to the human resource system required a certificate. This would encrypt network...

...Running head: PSYCOLOGICAL UNDERPINNINGS: A TASK AT HAND Psychological Underpinning: A Task At Hand Beverly Becnel Grand Canyon University: EDU 313 N February 21, 2012 The task of teaching children comes with many different avenues to choose from, but the avenue we choose is only as good as the way we plan the lesson and the child’s ability to comprehend it. Another notable factor of planning for lessons is the many theories that are available for our use. Because of the fact that children learn and develop at different stages, it is important to evaluate each child and make sure the lessons we are planning to teach is at that child’s level. In order to ensure we have chosen the best pathway for the child’s learning experience it is also important for teachers to make themselves familiar with these theories and discover when and how to use them. One theory I found to be a good resource is Behaviorism which is also known as behavioral psychology; this theory is based on the fact that all behaviors are acquired through conditioning. This conditioning can occur with the interaction of the environment. According to this theory behavior can be studied in a systematic and observable manner regardless of internal mental status (cherry, 2012). The two major types of behaviorism are classical conditioning, and operant conditioning. The classical conditioning theory is based on the act of placing a neutral signal before a naturally occurring reflex. For example you smell...
