DUE DATE: Saturday End of Day USA time (6 days from now)

Topic:

Many business environments have both visible and invisible physical security controls. You see them at the post office, at the corner store, and in certain areas of your own computing environment. They are so pervasive that some people choose where they live based on their presence, as in gated access communities or secure apartment complexes. Alison is a security analyst for a major technology corporation that specializes in data management. This company includes an in house security staff (guards, administrators, and so on) that is capable of handling physical security breaches. Brad experienced an intrusion—into his personal vehicle in the company parking lot. He asks Alison whether she observed or recorded anyone breaking into and entering his vehicle, but this is a personal item and not a company possession, and she has no control or regulation over damage to employee assets. This is understandably unnerving for Brad, but he understands that she’s protecting the business and not his belongings.

When or where would you think it would be necessary to implement security measures for both?

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 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. Use proper citations and references in your post.

You are hired to design a database for a fitness center. As the fitness center is expanding with more than one branch, they want to create a database to keep track of its customers, facilities and employees. Each branch has a unique id and address (building number, street, district, and city). A branch may have more than one facility (e.g. swimming pool, spa, etc.). Each facility must belong to only one branch, and the information for a facility is name and fees. In addition, each fitness branch offers different classes (such as Yoga, Pilates, Zumba, etc.). All classes should be led by at most one trainer, who is an employee. 

Employees must work at one and only one branch. Each employee has an id, name, address (building number, street, district, and city) and can have multiple phone numbers. An employee can only be an admin, managing the facility or working as a clerk, or a trainer. An employee cannot be a trainer and an admin because the trainer id compensated an hourly wage while an admin staff paid a monthly salary. Trainers can train individual customers at different time sessions. 

A customer must register at one branch. Each customer has a membership number, name (stored as first name and last name), email, and only one phone number. A customer can join more than one class or uses any number of facilities. A customer may also decide to be trained by at most one personal trainer.  

Given the above description: 1. Draw an ERD for the database, identifying the following: a. All the entities, attributes and relationships b. Primary key and (discriminator in weak entity, if any). Don’t forget each entity has to have PK. c. Participation and cardinality constraints. (Explain your choices for two constraints- i.e. identify the words the guided your decision) d. Specialization and completeness constraints (if there is an ISA relationship). 

2. Write a schema for two entities and two relationships of your choice. Remember, sometimes a relationship is better not be represented in a separate schema; if this is the case with your chosen relationship explain what you will do.

select one of the key terms listed below and conduct a search of Campbellsville University’s online Library resources to find 1 recent peer reviewed article (within the past 3 years) that closely relate to the concept. Your submission must include the following information in the following format:

Key Terms:

• Styles of Negotiation
• Anchoring in Negotiation
• Mediation
• Arbitration

DEFINITION: a brief definition of the key term followed by the APA reference for the term; this does not count in the word requirement.

SUMMARY: Summarize the article in your own words- this should be in the 150-200 word range. Be sure to note the article’s author, note their credentials and why we should put any weight behind his/her opinions, research or findings regarding the key term.

ANALYSIS: Using 300-350 words, write a brief analysis, in your own words of how the article relates to the selected chapter Key Term. An analysis is not rehashing what was already stated in the article, but the opportunity for you to add value by sharing your experiences, thoughts and opinions. This is the most important part of the assignment.

REFERENCES: All references must be listed at the bottom of the submission–in APA format. 

Be sure to use the headers in your submission to ensure that all aspects of the assignment are completed as required.

 Pick one of the following terms for your research: Strategic philanthropy, locus of control, ethical culture, ethical awareness, or normative approach 

Attached below

1. How does Application Security relate to software development?
   1. Define application and software development
   2. Briefly describe the role of application security in software development
2. Discuss two software development approaches
   1. For each briefly discuss the high-level principles/approach
   2. Discuss how Application Security should be included in each phase/step of the approaches
   3. Discuss what elements of the application should be addressed and how.  Examples: data at rest, data in motion, identity management, etc.
3. Discuss the potential downfalls that can occur if Application Security is not integrated with application development

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.

Describe in 500 words the shared security responsibility model that a dba must be aware of  when moving to the cloud.

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.  Stand alone quotes will not count toward the 3 required quotes.

Copying without attribution or the use of spinbot or other word substitution software will result in a grade of 0.

Do not use attachments as a submission. 

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. It usually results in nonsense and is not a good way to learn anything. . I will not spend a lot of my time trying to decipher nonsense. 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.
