IAM Exercise 2Due:  April 6, 2012 1.​For the OOPS case identify organizational critical information. 2.​Identify the “impact attributes” of confidentiality, integrity, and availability as the minimum for the column identifiers, more can be added.  Write these as the column headers.   3.​Define the “impact” values of High, Medium, and Low.  Each definition will cover all the identified impact attributes identified in #2.  The definitions are normally qualitative but can be quantitative.   4.​Develop the information criticality matrix.  Assign impact values to each block of the matrix.  Each value is independent of other blocks. 5.​Determine the high water mark. 6.​Develop system information criticality matrices.  Review of the system diagram may help. 7.​The customer has shared the following concerns during preassessment: a.​Management is concerned about session controls because the current system does not implement automatic logouts or password protected screen savers.  They are concerned that operators are leaving stations without logging out and potentially leaving the system vulnerable. b.​Management is concerned that they are lacking proper disaster recovery (DR) and contingency plans (CP).  This concern is rooted in the fact that the system does not seem particularly redundant and they have not tested contingency plans. c.​Management is concerned that they may not be practicing proper control of their media.  The media destruction and labeling practices are ad hoc. d.​Management is concerned about security concerns associated with older equipment and software. 8.​Develop a list of individuals that you would interview during the on-site visit.  Indicate those individuals by position within the organization. 9.​Complete a draft of the following: ​Findings – vulnerabilities identified​Discussion – description of vulnerabilities and consequences of each vulnerability being exploited.​Recommendations – countermeasures for elimination or mitigation of the vulnerabilities preferably with more than one alternative countermeasure for each vulnerability.   OOPS Case The Organization for Optimal Power Supply (OOPS) provides electricity to one twentieth of the United States’ Citizens.  They constantly monitor power consumption and redirect power according to demands.  This includes initiating or terminating operations of generator stations. ​Historically, OOPS has had a difficult time starting up idle generator stations when they are needed.  Therefore, they have decided to place servers in each station to control the generator’s output and status.  To activate a generator station, the regional office calls into the server and logs onto the machine.  After a generator station has been activated, it updates its status and output to the regional server by hourly dial-up connections. ​The control of all the OOPS generators is run through a main control center at corporate headquarters.  The control center decides when to activate any generators and which areas are in need of power.  All of the regional offices are connected to the main server via frame relay lines which allows for rapid updates of the current situation.  All updates are done automatically by the servers, but can be initiated by authorized users if necessary. ​OOPS has corporate headquarters located in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  Regional sites are located in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Provo, Utah; Seattle, Washington; and Boise, Idaho.  There are eight generator stations located across the region.  Access to the generator stations is through dialup modem. ​OOPS plans to install wireless networks at headquarters but they haven’t yet focused on the security implications of that decision.  Currently user systems are typically running the Windows XP operating system and Servers are running Windows 2000 Server.

You are considering leasing a car that costs $25,000. The lease requires monthly payments of $500 forthe next 5 years, starting one month from today. The lease also allows you to buy the car for $8,000immediately after making the final lease payment. Your rich uncle, who hates leasing, offers to loan you the$25,000 at a 9% APR interest rate (i.e., 0.75% per month). Your uncle is so nice that he will allow you torepay the loan in full over the next 5 years in any way you choose. If you cannot deduct interest expense orcar depreciation on your tax return, should you accept your uncle’s generous offer?

I don’t think the answer on course hero is correct. My teacher says the answer is to take the uncle’s offer because with loan payments of $413 per month you are saving money

I will pay for the following essay Applied Biology. The essay is to be 1 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

Therefore, pure biology gives us the theoretical approach that will be applied and used in the field through applied biology (Roberts et al., 2000).

Living organisms or their derivatives such as enzymes have been used to improve and even manufacture new products. Taq polymerase from Thermophillic bacterium Thermus aquaticus has been used in polymerase chain reactions, in the molecular field of biology. Through biotechnology, yeast in the form of Sacccaromyces cerevisae and S. Carbergensis have been applied in production of alcohol. Similarly, scientists through pure sciences have discovered that use of chemical pesticides is polluting the environment besides causing serious health problems to the consumer. In return, they have discovered that B-toxin that is derived from a bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis kills larvae in plants. Through applied biology, the idea has been applied in the manufacture of biopesticides against larvae in maize hence improving production and conserving the environment (Roberts et al., 2000).

Therefore, the two fields co-exist and they can not live without the other. Therefore, students should be exposed to more applied field work rather than pure studies. The knowledge learnt should be applied in solving, improving and modifying of life (Roberts et al., 2000). Therefore, it should be emphasised in the school
