Penetration testing is a simulated cyberattack against a computer or network that checks for exploitable vulnerabilities. Pen tests can involve attempting to breach application systems, APIs, servers, inputs, and code injection attacks to reveal vulnerabilities. In a well-written, highly-detailed research paper, discuss the following:

• What is penetration testing
• Testing Stages
• Testing Methods
• Testing, web applications and firewalls

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately four to six pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
• Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

On April 18, 2016, The United States Supreme Court denied a petition for certiorari (refused to review the lower court’s ruling) in the case of Authors Guild v. Google, Inc., 804 F. 3d 202 – Court of Appeals, 2nd Circuit 2015.

Tell me what you would do if you were the Supreme Court.

That case let stand the ruling of the Court of Appeals which can be found at the following website:

Please write a 500-word summary of fair use as this court decision says it.

Impacts of IT to the society

In the final discussion posting please describe what components of cryptography impacted you the most.

I would prefer about asymmetric cryptography and the math underlying it.  Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited. 30-35  lines should be good enough.

This assignment focuses on conjunctive normal form formulas (cnf-formula) and satisfiability.

In this assignment, you must create a Netbeans Java program that:

• prompts the user for the location of a file to load a cnf-formula (use JFileChooser)

• reads a cnf-formula from the file creating a CnfFormula object (see file-format below),

• prompt the user for a variable assignment (see AssignmentView below),

• verifies and displays whether the user’s assignment satisfies the cnf-formula,

• determines whether the cnf-formula is satisfiable and if so, output the assignment,

• as Java comments give the Big-O analysis of the verify and isSatisfiable methods,

• as a separate file, submit the cnf-formula file you “unit” tested on.

 Many new clean tech ventures have relied on funding and partnership from established corporations. Select a recently funded clean tech venture with corporate venture involvement.
