Project Description:

As you near graduation from college, you plan to apply to various graduate schools. You have prepared a draft of a statement of purpose that you will include in an application packet to each university to which you apply. You modify the statement of purpose so that it is attractive and error free. In addition, you include such items as a table, picture, header, footer, and footnote, formatting text in columns where appropriate. Finally, you use mail merge to prepare personalized copies.

     

Start Word. Download and open   the file named Exp22_Word_AppCapstone_IntroAssessment_Research.docx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

 

Apply the Slice document theme.   Select all text in the document and change the font to Bookman Old Style.   Change the font size to 12. Adjust the right and left margins to 1.5″.

Short Research Paper #1 – Alice and Super Secure Bank

Prepare a short research paper of approximately 5 pages, double-spaced, exclusive of cover, title page, table of contents, endnotes and bibliography.  Your paper must use APA formatting with the exception that tables and figures (if used) can be inserted at the appropriate location rather than added at the end.  Submit the paper in your assignment folder as a Microsoft Word attachment (.docx or .doc format) with the following file name: yourlastnameSSB.doc

For example, a submission file would be called JonesSSB.doc

Alice, a high net worth customer, banks on-line at Super Secure Bank (SSB) and has agreed to use 3DES in communicating with SSB. One day, Alice received a statement that shows a debit of $1,000,000 from her account. On inquiring, she was told that the bank manager, Bob, transferred the money out of Alice’s account and into an account of his own in an offshore bank. When reached via long distance in the Cayman Islands, Bob produced a message from Alice, properly encrypted with the agreed upon 3DES keys, saying: “Thanks for your many years of fine service, Bob. Please transfer $1,000,000 from my account to yours as a token of my esteem and appreciation. Signed, Alice.”

Alice filed suit against Bob, SSB and the government of the Cayman Islands, claiming that the message was a forgery, sent by Bob himself and asking for damages for pain and suffering.  Bob has responded by claiming that all procedures were followed properly and that Alice is filing a nuisance suit. You have been employed by SSB as a cryptographic expert to assist in the investigation of this matter, and will produce a report for the SSB Board of Directors, which will assist them in determining how to proceed in this matter.

Your report to the Board of Directors should address the following issues:

· What can be determined from the facts as presented about whether Alice intended to make Bob a gift of $1,000,000?

· Assuming SSB wishes to continue using only 3DES as its cryptographic system, what could SSB and Alice have done to protect against this controversy arising?

· Would this controversy have arisen if SSB had been using AES rather than 3DES?

Your report should clearly address these issues, with sufficient detail and background to allow the “cryptographically challenged” Board of Directors to understand the issues involved and formulate plans for how to approach the immediate issue with Alice, and to continue business in the future, assuming that they want to continue using 3DES.

Please Note: It is not required in this paper to provide a detailed explanation of the 3DES encryption algorithm.

Firewalling

Again turn to our VM and use the built-in Linux firewall and the tool netcat to learn some firewall basics. iptables is a common Linux firewall that can be found in a variety of unexpected locations. It is extremely powerful with a lot of capabilities but we are going to focus on some of the more straightforward capabilities. In this week’s assignment, you will be using netcat to create some direct network communications on the system then using the firewall to interrupt those communications. 

Refer to the attached file uploaded for additional requirements for this work.

Upgrade the Java built-in class ‘Random’ by using the inheritance concept

The intructor comments:

 
Wrong implementation. 

nextChar (‘X’ , ‘C’)   

must be one of ‘X’, ‘Y’, ‘Z’, ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’ 

Below is the code for the function nextChar: 

char nextChar(){

        char c=(char)nextInt(65,90);            // ‘A’ to ‘Z’ ASCII code is 65-90 finding random ASCII code in this range

        return c;

    }

    char nextChar(char low,char high){

        int l=(int)low;

        int h=(int) high;

        char c=’A’;

        if(l

        c=(char)nextInt(l,h);                    // finding random ASCII code between given range

        else

            c=(char)nextInt(h,l);

        return c;
