 Scenario

Always Fresh allows external users, such as vendors and business partners, to access the Always Fresh Windows environment. You have noticed a marked increase in malware activity in the test environment that seems to originate from external users. After researching the likely source of new malware, you conclude that allowing external users to connect to your environment using compromised computers exposes Always Fresh to malware vulnerabilities.

After consulting with your manager, you are asked to create a policy that will ensure all external computers that connect to Always Fresh environment are malware free. You create the following policy:

“To protect the Always Fresh computing environment from the introduction of malware of any type from external sources, all external computers and devices must demonstrate that they are malware free prior to establishing a connection to any Always Fresh resource.”

Consider the following questions:

1. What does “malware free” mean?

2. How can a user demonstrate that their computer or device is malware free?

3. What are the steps necessary to establish a malware-free computer or device?

4. How should Always Fresh verify that a client computer or device is compliant?

Tasks

Create a malware protection procedure guide that includes steps for installing and running anti-malware software. Fill in the following details to develop your procedure guide:

1. Provide a list of approved anti-malware software solutions—include at least three leading antivirus and two anti-spyware products. You may include Microsoft products and third-party products. Instruct users to select one antivirus and one anti-spyware product and install them on their computer.

2. Describe the process of:

a. Ensuring anti-malware software and data is up to date. Mandate daily updates.

b. Running regular malware scans. Mandate that automatic scans occur whenever the computer is idle. If that setting is unavailable, mandate daily fast scans and biweekly complete scans.

3. Provide steps to follow any time malware is detected.

a. Immediate reaction—what to do with current work, leave the computer on or turn it off

b. Who to contact

c. What information to collect

The procedure guide may be used by company security professionals in the future. Hence, all steps listed should be clear and self-explanatory.

Please write a research paper (3 to 4 pages) to answer the following question:

How the Internet of Things Technology can Enhance Emergency Management Operations

Please see below the discussion in response to the original question asked and respond as a peer using 150 or more words.

Original Question:  Explain SQL and its functions. What do you enjoy the most about learning SQL? What you find the most difficult? 

Peer Response:

SQL is a query language and one of the most popular database languages, mostly due to it not being too difficult to learn. Each SQL database systems have data definition language and data manipulation language. The data definition language is for database creation, change and maintenance. The data manipulation language (DML) is used for computing data within a database. The DML can also support functions like COUNT, which counts the number of rows meeting the selection criteria. CURRENT_DATE will return the current system date. AVG computed the total value of the column given. Some very basic and standard commands include, SELECT, INSERT, FROM, CREATE and DROP. 

I enjoyed how simple it was to understand the language. I have taken courses with other languages and this has been the least confusing. Being able to continue to build on what you already have is the best part. The most difficult was understanding the normalization forms. This was a big hurdle for me but once I got more of an understanding it became simpler to understand how I needed to do the diagrams. Also some of the syntaxes. in the trucks assignment it took me hours, and I mean hours, to fully understand where I was going wrong with some of them. But now I’ve become more aware of what to use and where to use it.
