Fuel cells

 Fuel Cells Discussion 

One of the “goals” of the 21st century is the replacement of fossil fuels with non-polluting renewable energy sources. Solar and wind are widely explored ideas, but so far, have not provided the availability and reliability necessary to replace existing sources of energy. Although practically non-polluting, solar and wind technologies have a significant footprint in the environment requiring thousands of acres for solar and wind farms that produce only fractions of the energy requirements of this country. Another potential energy source that is currently being explored for use in automobiles and manufacturing is the “fuel cell,” defined as “a device that converts the chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through a chemical reaction of positively charged hydrogen ions with oxygen or another oxidizing agent (Wikipedia).” Fuel cells also have the potential to provide energy to individual homes and communities, small businesses and organizations, and major industries. The benefits seem to be enormous, but like all new technologies there are significant issues to deal with. 

Discuss your thoughts on the use of fuel cells and how they will impact energy companies and the labor markets.

2 paragraphs minimum. 

Alternative Energy Sources Discussion 

The U.S. and other countries are taking steps to develop domestic renewable production to address the stresses put on the energy infrastructure. Discuss Ocean and Hydrogen energy and how it will further reduce our dependence on traditional fossil fuels. Describe the energy sources and how they are being used or can be used today as a viable energy source. What are the pros and cons of its use? What technological changes, if any, will further advance its progress in becoming a primary source of energy? 

3 paragraphs minimum.

Project 4: Human Resources Insider Threat Guidelines

 

Project 4: Human Resources Insider Threat Guidelines
Step 10: Prepare a Profile Matrix

Now that you have familiarized yourself with the concepts of hackers and standards, policies, and guidelines, it is important to understand how to match the two in an organization.

For this assignment, prepare a Profile Matrix that lists the different types of hackers in the first column, and for each, list the psychological profile, main motivations, threats to the organization, benefits to the organization, and whether or not a standard, guideline, or policy best applies to them. Be sure to identify an example of a standard, guideline, or policy that may apply.

You should identify a minimum of six hacker-type examples. This will assist you in both helping upper management identify insider threats and to prevent future breaches.

Finally, at this point in your assignment, you should have encountered concerns about using profiles to “watch” employees and the benefits and dangers of doing so. Include a short paragraph about your findings to the matrix.

1000 Word Essay From Outline Alredy Made

  

Each student will select a recent (within 3 years) data breach, and prepare a memo of at a minimum of 1000 words, describing the breach, the techniques and tools used by the hackers to execute the breach, the technical and business impact, and steps taken by the victim company to recover. 

At least three(3) sources must be consulted and cited in the Briefing, including at least one of each of these types:

· A general news source, such as the Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, or a similar network or local news website.

· A technical publication describing the breach, such as CISA, Mitre Att&ck Framework, krebsonsecurity.com, SC Magazine or one of the approved and recommended Resources. (Wikipedia is not acceptable)

· Approved and Recommended Resources

You will be given the main program class (RoobikRunner). You will not need to change RoobikRunner.

 

You will be given the main program class (RoobikRunner). You will not need to change RoobikRunner.

You  will also be given the skeleton to the Rubik’s Cube class (RoobikCube)  and a placeholder class describing the face of a Rubik’s Cube  (RoobikFace). You will not have to change RoobikFace.

Your assignment is to:

1)  Implement the RoobikCube constructor. The constructor takes no  arguments and creates and populates an array of RoobikFace objects. Each  RoobikFace should have its own color.

2) Implement the  toString() method of RoobikCube. The output of the method should be the  net of the cube, with the front face in the center, as shown below.

You must use the array in your toString method to receive full credit.

Network Administration

 

The first step will be to select an organization as the target for your Network Administration Processes and Procedure Guide. This organization can be real or hypothetical, and it will be used as the basis for each of the assignments throughout the course. It should conform to the following guidelines:

  • Nontrivial: The selected organization should be large and should contain a network infrastructure that requires the implementation of network administration processes and procedures.
  • Domain knowledge: You should be familiar enough with the organization and typical network administration needs without significant time required for network administration research and education.
  • Accessibility: You should have good access to network administration officers and management in the organization.
