Discussion:
Fake news is no longer a matter of the occasional hoax. There is growing evidence that fake news has the power to shape public opinion and even sway elections. As more Americans get their news online, it is increasingly vital that we as consumers know how to verify sources and spot fake news.
Topic 1 Questions:

1. Explain at least two ways fake news could affect results of political elections?
2. What can companies like Facebook and Twitter do to stop users from spreading fake news? What can we, as consumers, do? What do you think would work, especially with younger users?

Topic 2: Deepfakes

This week you read about Deepfakes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T76bK2t2r8g) in two different Read & Watch items, one created by CNN Business and one by Forbes.

Discussion:
Deepfake technology will certainly become more prevalent as we move into the future.
Topic 2 Questions: 

1. How concerned are you about the negative impact Deepfakes could have on society?

Discussion: Research a Recent Data Breach Involving Databases

Instructions:

In this module, we discussed how important security is when it comes to databases. As an effective database professional, you’ll need to ensure the systems and solutions you design and use are properly secured from accidental or intentional misuse. Many databases contain sensitive information, such as PII (Personally Identifiable Information, like your birth date), PHI (Personal Health Information, such as your medical history or current prescriptions), and PCI (Payment Card Information, such as your bank or credit card details). Then there are the thousands upon thousands of other data points captured about you and the world (physical and virtual) around you. All of this information is under attack – by malicious hackers seeking to profit, competitors looking for the “Next Big Thing”, or just bored kids who have nothing better to do. 

In your duties, you’ll be managing and acting as a “Data Custodian.” By understanding how impactful a database breach can be, use the internet to research data breaches from the past 5 years. Focus on breaches where

• Data was stored in a database, S3 bucket, or other online repository,
• Data was the primary focus of the attack
• Where that attack caused serious business or financial harm

In general, your post should include: key characteristics or facts about the attack, type of data impacted, business or financial impact. Include any lessons learned or relevant personal experiences. 

The post should be roughly 3-4 paragraphs and be roughly 300-400 words long. 

You MUST cite resources in APA format. 

The Banking e-Teller system allows bank customers to perform ATM transactions from their cell phone. BeT will allow customers to check balances, make remote capture deposits, and perform balance transfers to their checking or savings account. Balance transfers should only be processed if the funds are available. It is time to start organizing your solution for this system and to begin development on your design proposal.
 

Create the following for BeT:

High Availability or HA is one of the primary reasons to migrate servers to a virtual environment or to the Cloud. For this discussion address the following questions. 

Question #1. What are some of the virtualization-related services available to System Administrators to ensure high availability for important servers? Name and explain some of these features available in either Hyper-V or VMware and describe the benefits.

For example, Live Migration or vMotion, HA or Failover Cluster, DSR (Distributed Resource Scheduler), FT (fault tolerance), etc.

Question #2. Provide a real-world example of how some of these HA features are being used by real companies. I suggest searching for “case studies” or “use cases” of the tools that you choose to describe.

It is NOT enough to give a generic one-sentence definition of what is HA. You should do more research (and post more details) if you wish to learn about these very important features of virtualization.

Write answers and submit pdf file with your answers. Complete program nor output NOT
needed.

1. Write sequence of instructions that will use ONLY PUSH and POP instructions to
exchange values in EAX and EBX.

2. Suppose you wanted a subroutine to return to an address that is 3 bytes higher than the
return address currently on stack. Write a sequence of instructions that will be inserted
just before the RET statement to accomplish this task.

Submit one pdf file that has all your work. 

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

Use the five paragraph format. Each paragraph must have at least five sentences. Include 3 quotes with quotation marks and cited in-line and in a list of references.

Include at least one quote from each of 3 different articles. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library, not Google

Cite your sources in a clickable reference list at the end. Do not copy without providing proper attribution

 Write a program to calculate a bowling league’s average bowling scores. You will need to read the input data from the file”BowlingScore.txt” 

• ou must use three arrays:
  • a one-dimensional array to store the bowler’s names.
  • a (parallel) two-dimensional array to store the bowling scores.
  • a one-dimensional array to store the bowler’s average score.
• Your program must contain at least the following functions:
  • a function called GetBowlingData to read and store data into two arrays. The function should take as input parameters the file name and both empty arrays, which it should fill from the file “BowlingScore.txt”
  • return a status of either success or failure (i.e true or false). 
  • a function called GetAverageScore that is used to calculate the average bowling score. The function should take as input the populated arrays and return the average score of each bowler in a separate array.
  • a function called PrettyPrintResults to output the results, i.e. bowler name, scores and average.
• Don’t use Vectors or any other newfangled container, use only old school C arrays like in the book.
• Use repetition structures (loops) in your functions to perform calculations and printing. Remember “dimensions = loops”. So a 2 dimensional array will require 2 loops to completely iterate over all of the elements in the array.
• And as always, don’t use magic numbers. Instead use global constants at the top of the program under the includes.
