Project Description:

As a student at the university, you have an entrepreneurial spirit and have dreamed of starting your own business. You have noticed that the coin laundry in your dorm is always full and crowded. You saw an opportunity to start a business that picks up laundry at the dorms, launders the clothes, folds the clothes, and returns the laundry in a single day. The first step to starting this business is to create a proposal for the university to approve the service to have some operations within the dorms. You started by conducting a survey of your fellow students. The next step is to process the survey results and create a proposal for the university.

The readings this week expand on investigation and of digital forensic analysis and investigations. Organizations, especially those in the public, health and educational areas are bound by legal and statutory requirements to protect data and private information, therefore digital forensics analysis will be very beneficial when security breaches do occur. Using this weeks readings and your own research, discuss digital forensics and how it could be used in a risk management program.

Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least TWO of the following:

  • Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic
  • Answer a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor
  • Provide extensive additional information on the topic
  • Explain, define, or analyze the topic in detail
  • Share an applicable personal experience
  • Provide an outside source (for example, an article from the UC Library) that applies to the topic, along with additional information about the topic or the source (please cite properly in APA 7)
  • Make an argument concerning the topic.

At least one scholarly source should be used in the initial discussion thread. Be sure to use information from your readings and other sources from the UC Library. Use proper citations and references in your post.

Project Part 2: Risk Assessment Plan

 This project is divided into several parts, each with a deliverable. The first four parts are drafts. These documents should resemble business reports in that they are organized by headings, include source citations (if any), be readable, and be free from typos and grammatical errors. However, they are not final, polished reports.Please see attached.

Project Part 2: Risk Assessment Plan

After creating an initial draft of the risk management plan, the next step is to create a draft of the risk assessment plan.For this part of the project:

  1. Research risk assessment approaches.
  2. Create an outline for a basic qualitative risk assessment plan.
  3. Write an introduction to the plan explaining its purpose and importance.
  4. Define the scope and boundaries for the risk assessment.
  5. Identify data center assets and activities to be assessed.
  6. Identify relevant threats and vulnerabilities. Include those listed in the scenario and add to the list if needed.
  7. Identify relevant types of controls to be assessed.
  8. Identify the key roles and responsibilities of individuals and departments within the organization as they pertain to risk assessments.
  9. Develop a proposed schedule for the risk assessment process.
  10. Complete the draft risk assessment plan detailing the information above. Risk assessment plans often include tables, but you choose the best format to present the material. Format the bulk of the plan similar to a professional business report and cite any sources you used.

Submission Requirements

  • Format: Microsoft Word (or compatible)
  • Font: Arial, size 12, double-space
  • Citation style: Your school’s preferred style guide
  • Estimated length: 4–6 pages

Performance Benchmarks ( Computer Architecture )

Homework Content

So far, we have been looking at Computer Architecture from a very high level…and hopefully, you are starting to look at your laptops and cell phones in terms that you were not before this class… We also discussed that every computer design is optimized with performance in mind so the question now is…just how good (or bad) is MY laptop compared against some performance benchmarks…

See the website below:
https://www.passmark.com/products/pt.htm

This site has free benchmarking software that you can download and run against your computer…download the software and let it run against your system…run both the Standard AND the Advanced Test…
NOTE: THE ABOVE LINK IS FOR WINDOWS TESTING…PLEASE SEE THE FOLLOWING WEBSITES FOR SOME PERFORMANCE TESTING SOFTWARE FOR THE MAC…IF YOU ARE A MAC USER AND ALREADY HAVE A PERFORMANCE MEASURE SOFTWARE, YOU MAY USE IT…
https://browser.geekbench.com/mac-benchmarks
https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac/test-mac-speed-3654776/

So how did your system do?…what was your overall score and percentile?…what are the scores telling you?…were you surprised by the results?…do the benchmarks provided sync up with how you feel your system is performing?…provide some screen shots of the results…what takeaways do you have from this test?…any follow-ups?…how can you improve the performance of your laptop?…do you use any other performance testing software?…if so, which ones?…how do the results compare?…provide screen shots of the other performance monitoring software…

Keep your results handy…we will refer to them throughout the semester…

As I mentioned, I am more concerned with QUALITY than I am with QUANTITY…but just as a guideline, you should submit at least ONE FULL PAGES OF WRITTEN CONTENT…meaning that screen shots (and this assignment has many), title page, source listing, etc. do NOT count as part of the one page…

Plagiarism is not allowed and I will give you an automatic zero if I discover that any part of your work was plagiarized either from the internet or another student’s paper.

From the humdrum of the mid-2000s web apps, Apple radically changed the mobile world with the iPhone, offering well-designed apps of their own and curating apps that were accepted into the App Store.  That influence has been far reaching, prompting Google to push their boundaries and develop material design, a design language that has become the distinctive hallmark of Android apps.  When compared to the web world where some popular apps could get away with mediocre design, why do mobile apps face a higher design bar? 

  • When compared to the web world where some popular apps could get away with mediocre design, why do mobile apps face a higher design bar?
  • Compare and contrast native mobile app design versus standard desktop app design.  Discuss considerations for choosing one over the other.  Elaborate on main advantages vs disadvantages.

Question 2 : Creating an Example Web Service. Page 42 Chapter 3.
Chapter 3
For submission : Read carefully “Using the Microsoft Stack” and “Using the Linux Apache MySQL PHP (LAMP) Stack” or 2 different approaches for creating a web service. Then
(a) compare the two approaches and
(b) explain 2 advantages of each approach relative to the other.
