Answer the following questions related to the reading assignment for the week:

1) In your own words, describe the process of “validation” (per the text).

2) What are the concerns of evidence contamination? How can you protect against this issue?

3) What consent to search requirements would you have if you were asked to provide support in an investigation of a device? Please response with whatever would be ncessary.

Your response to the DQ must be a a minimum of 400 words. You must provide references for your response (APA format). You will need to reply to two (2) other fellow student’s posts (See the syllabus). The responses must be made in the week due.

 Discussion Points 1. Do some Internet research on Chevron’s use of seismic imaging technology. Briefly explain how it works and how it has helped Chevron discover new oil and gas reservoirs.  C6-7 2. Do some Internet research on security vulnerabilities associated with SCADA and digital industrial control systems. Summarize the major security concerns associated with these systems and steps than can be taken to enhance their security. 3. Discuss the pros and cons of moving enterprise-wide applications that have traditionally been supported on premises to the cloud. 4. Do some Internet research on identify management and single sign on systems. Briefly explain how these work and why they are important in business intranets and extranets. 5.

For this assignment, you are to construct a visual story of yourself, through information.

You have a lot of leeway with this assignment, but I want you to come up with an interesting and informative way to tell someone something about yourself, or to somehow track a particular characteristic or event. What is important, what is not? How does it relate to other things? If you can describe yourself in a paragraph, how would you describe yourself in a visual? Can you pick out a little piece of your experience of life and use graphical structure to tell this story, and even learn from it?

Think of this as building something like a resumé (meaning: “summary”) or curriculum vitae (“story of life”), but constructed through graphical structures rather than words, and topically about something broader than your skills and job history. This visual should investigate and show something about yourself that is interesting, unique, and perhaps quirky.

You can, and likely will, choose to concentrate on a particular area or subset of yourself rather than trying to incorporate everything, but you should try to make a coherent point, statement, or story with this visual. Incorporate as much or as little as you want.

This visual can be based on real data, if you have it, or it can be based on pseudo-data — approximations and an organizational sense, even if there is not true “data” to back it up. The point is rather to come up with a way to visually arrange, organize, and communicate.

You can choose to organize your graphic through some mechanism of time, space, flow, connection, overlap, impact, interest, happiness, …

Find a peer-reviewed scholarly journal article discussing electronic innovation and the government.  Complete a review of the article by writing a 4-page overview of the article. This will be a detailed summary of the journal article, including concepts discussed and findings. Additionally, find one other source (it does not have to be a peer-reviewed journal article) that substantiates the findings in the article you are reviewing.  

Discuss the following, supplying citations to support any information that you provide.  Do not include your opinion, only what you can support with a citation.  Address the following topics.

1. Describe operating system hardening
   1. Define it
   2. Why is it done?
   3. What steps are usually done in a Windows environment?
2. Describe system restoration methods and procedures
   1. Define it
   2. Why is it needed?
   3. What tools and approaches are recommended?
3. Describe network security controls
   1. Define it
   2. Why is it needed?
   3. What steps, tools, and policies are used to secure networks?
4. Describe incident response teams and the role of evidence
   1. What are incident response teams and why do they exist?
   2. How does evidence collection relate to incident response teams?
   3. Discuss evidence
      1. Describe why evidence is collected,
      2. How it should be collected
      3. What can happen if it is collected or handled in an inappropriate way

For all writing assignments ensure that you do the following:

• Write 1000 to 1500 words in APA format.
• Utilize at least five scholarly references. 
• Note that scholarly references do not include Wikipedia, .COM websites, blogs, or other non-peer reviewed sources. 
• Utilize Google Scholar and/or the university library. 
• Do not copy and paste bulleted lists.  Instead, read the material and in your words, describe the recommendation citing the source. 
• Review the rubric to see how you will be graded.
• Plagiarism will result in a zero for the assignment. 
• The second instance of plagiarism will result in your failure of this class.
• If you use a source, cite it.  If you do not, it is plagiarism.

  airports = [{‘name’: ‘Cincinnati’, ‘altitude’: 2000, ‘code’: ‘CVG’}, {‘name’: ‘Chicago’, ‘altitude’: 1800, ‘code’: ‘OHA’}, {‘name’: ‘Indianapolis’, ‘altitude’: 1700, ‘code’: ‘INY’}]

1. Given the “airports” list above, create 3 lists, one of the airport names, one of the airport altitudes and one of airport codes using for loops… using list comprehensions…using another technique

2. Given the 3 lists from #1, combine them back into a list of dictionaries using the most efficient technique you can think of

3. Given the “airports” list above, find the total combined altitude using for loops… using the sum() function… using the reduce() function.

PLEASE PROVIDE PYTHON 2.X/3.X CODE FOR SOLVING THE EXERCISES ABOVE.
