Chapter 3 outline RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY for Ethical Hacking Research Topic

Topic: Perform a Vulnerability Assessment of your place of employment or living area. If you use your work area make sure you inform the Security Manager to get permission as to what you are doing. If you live in a gated community inform the security guard of your activities.

Instructions: Please follow the Vulnerability Assessment template (MS Word), which is already in APA 7 format, using size 12 Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins, TOC, Headings and Reference page. If you insert images or tables in your report make sure you label them appropriately according to APA. 

For this assignment: The 4 Heading-1s are required. Each Heading-1 must have at least 3 Heading-2s. Each Heading must have at least 2 properly formatted paragraphs with 3 properly formatted sentences each. 

Read three articles and discuss the principle of least privilege in at least 500 words. Explain how this principle impacts data security.

Use at least three sources. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library, not Google. Include at least 3 quotes from your sources enclosed in quotation marks and cited in-line by reference to your reference list. Example: “words you copied” (citation) These quotes should be one full sentence not altered or paraphrased. Cite your sources using APA format. Use the quotes in your paragaphs.

Write in essay format not in bulleted, numbered or other list format.

Reply to two classmates’ posting in a paragraph of at least five sentences by asking questions, reflecting on your own experience, challenging assumptions, pointing out something new you learned, offering suggestions. These peer responses are not ‘attaboys’. You should make your initial post by Thursday evening so your classmates have an opportunity to respond before Sunday.at midnight when all three posts are due.

It is important that you use your own words, that you cite your sources, that you comply with the instructions regarding length of your post and that you reply to two classmates in a substantive way (not ‘nice post’ or the like). Your goal is to help your colleagues write better. Do not use spinbot or other word replacement software. Proof read your work or have it edited. Find something interesting and/or relevant to your work to write about. Please do not submit attachments unless requested.

OVERVIEW

The principle of least privilege promoting minimal user profile privileges on databases based on the idea that limiting user’s rights, makes the data more secure. This principle applies to users, batch files, and scripts. Patch management insures that your database applications are up to date and using the most secure version.

 Using the Internet, each member of your team should read at least 3 academically reviewed articles on team designing. Summarize the articles in 300 words or more. Provide appropriate references.   

Read Chapter 14: Assessing the Organization’s SOA Maturity and Developing Your Company’s SOA Business Strategy and Roadmap. Answer the following questions:

1. What is an SOA Business Strategy and Roadmap?
2. What is the CMMI Maturity model and how does it fit within the SOA model?

Answer the following using the given link:- https://www.zdnet.com/article/third-malware-strain-discovered-in-solarwinds-supply-chain-attack/

Question 1: Explain the issue discussed as you understand it.

Question 2: Who is impacted? And how are they impacted?

Question 3: what are possible mitigations or ways to avoid the negative impacts?

Background: Kamehameha Institute is an organization that provides educational offerings to non-traditional students. The organization has tailored its unique educational offerings into the groups shown in Table 1 below:

Table 1. Kamehameha Educational Offerings.

GroupOfferingKamehameha BrandedFocused on the general public/provides services directly to its studentsCo-BrandedProvides the same services as Kamehameha Branded but resold by a third party and labeled as “…. Kamehameha Strong”White Label BrandedWhile the service offering is the same, these services are labeled solely with the third parties’ information

The State of Hawai’i regulates the educational sector, driving the need to ensure Kamehameha follows the State’s strict security and regulatory requirements. Kamehameha’s leadership is also very concerned with the threat posed by the online theft of their unique intellectual property. Additionally, the number of Hawai’ian entities breached by threat actors is on the rise. Thus, security, privacy, and compliance are all important considerations for the Kamehameha network architecture.

Your boss, the Kamehameha Institute’s Chief Operating Officer (COO) has tasked you to design a network infrastructure for three facilities located in the Hawaiian Islands of Honolulu, Hilo, and Lihue. The COO stipulated that you must separate the three group offerings in Table 1 and provide for strengthened defenses to protect Kamehameha’s cultural heritage. After meeting with the COO, the two of you drafted the following set of requirements for your network design:

· Each of the facilities has three floors:

· The first and second floor of each building requires 150 network connections each

· The third floor of each building houses a data center and requires 75 network connections

· The Honolulu location requires additional network connections for failover purposes

· The Hilo location will be the primary data center and house redundant database servers

· The Lihue location will serve as a failover data center and house the primary web servers (including the primary application and primary database servers)

· A constant connection between the three locations, carrying at least 75 Mbps of data

· All servers at all locations must have redundancy

· Protection from intrusions is required and should be documented

· A plan to verify security and failover measures is required

· Submission: Using the free tool, daw.io available at https://draw.io (no sign-in or registration required), create a network diagram (drawing) specific to the organization that encompasses the three facilities and also depicts ant necessary interconnections. Figure 1 shows the draw.io ‘new network diagram’ dialog window:

Figure 1. Draw.io New File Dialog Showing the Network Diagramming Templates

Your diagram should include enough detail to show the topology interconnections. The viewer should be able to understand the Kamehameha Institute’s network environment and be able to implement the architecture you develop. Ensure that you properly cite any external sources.

One of the keys to producing a viable network diagram is labeling the objects consistently and descriptively. Think about what you would want to know about a network device if you logged into it with little prior information. Consider location, floor number, or other pertinent information. At a minimum, include the following elements:

· IMPORTANT: Your network diagram must include an identifying label (e.g., callout box) that includes your class and section, assignment title, your name, and the date. Edit the items in italics. Your assignment will not be accepted if this element is missing:

· Any necessary hardware

· Site-to-Site (WAN) connections (e.g., leased line connectivity, satellite, etc.)

· Annotate the following values for each of the Sites:

· Network ID

· Useable Range

· Subnet Mask

· CIDR Value

· Broadcast Address

· All devices require hostnames complying with the following naming conventions:

· Routers: Rx; where x is the site number incremented by a value of 1 for each router

· Switches: Sx; where x is the site number incremented by a value of 1 for each switch

· Servers: SRVx where x is the server number incremented by a value of 1 for each server

· For each site router, implement a private ip addressing scheme using a range suitable for corporate infrastructure and include the following:

· management vlan

· production vlan

When finished, export the diagram as a PDF document (Note: You will need to use this diagram again in Project 3, so ensure you save the xml source file!) and submit it to the Assignment folder. Figure 2 demonstrates how to export your draw.io diagram as a PDF document:
