In this assignment, students will demonstrate methods and techniques of adjudicating systems configured in a manner consistent with general practice.

Research methods for hardening PFSense.

Using the virtualized PFSense system created in Topic 3, harden the PFSense system using Snort.

1. Start the Snort service.
2. Update Snort and download the latest community rules.
3. Ensure that you have configured Snort to detect port scans.

Using the Kali VM from Topic 3, run another port scan.

Using screenshots of the results, explain if Snort detected the port scan.

Create a 300- to 500-word step-by-step instructional guide detailing how to detect scans using snort. Make sure to:

1. Explain what hardening is, what Snort does, and why it is being used in this scenario.
2. Explain any other methods by which PFSense can be hardened.
3. Include at least five screenshots.

Designing Team and Team Identity

Part 1: Our text book lists about twelve elements that a manager should consider when designing a team (This is not a design team, this is building or hiring a team of people) Choose two elements that you think are most important.  Define them and explain why these two are most important. Would you choose the same two for a face to face team and a virtual team? If you were a manager and were given a team of five 30-year-old males from the United States and you could hire one more person for the team, would you hire a female from France?  why or why not?

Part 2: Do you feel more attached to your work team, your class team or your ‘team of family and friends?’  Do each of these ‘teams’ have a different identity?  What is the difference?

Need 300 – 400 content including references.

Bellow URLS Will discusses broad context of risk and investigative forensics. Part of risk management is to understand when things go wrong, we need to be able to investigate and report our findings to management.

Using this research, or other research you have uncovered discuss in detail how risk and investigate techniques could work to help the organization. 

ERM helps to protect an organization before an attack, where as forensics investigate technique will help us after an attack – so lets discus both this week.

NOTE: You are required to use at least two-peer reviewed sources (besides your textbook) to answer the above questions.  The initial post is due by Wednesday at 11:59pm ET.  You must engage on at least three separate days (by Wednesday for the first post and two additional days of peer engagement).  Do not wait until Sunday to engage with peers, this should be an active conversation with your peers.  When replying to peers be sure to engage with substantial posts that add to the conversation.  

Investigate whether or not an employee at a local hospital has been accessing patient records and setting information to online pharmacies. It is your first day of the investigation. Put together a list of data sources that must be examined during the investigation.

Please read the Dianrong case study (see HBS Coursepack) and answer the following questions with substantive answers in a cohesive essay. Your paper should be at least 3 pages in length. Use proper grammar, spelling, citations, etc.

1. What are the trade offs that Dianrong is facing? How should the company prioritize its objectives? What should Soul Htite do?

2. As detailed in Exhibit 1 of the case, there are different collaboration models that Dianrong has adopted in working with various parties on technological development. How should the company decide on the nature of collaboration for technological developments in the future (via organic and in-house developments, partnerships, joint ventures, or acquisitions)?

3. Assuming that the company manages to raise an additional US$100 million, how should Dianrong allocate the capital across its many business units to maximize value in the long run? Should the company spend the money on internal R&D initiatives or M&A pursuits? Or both?

4. How should the company work with the local regulations in China? Should the company focus on reviving the P2 industry in China in the process? If so, how?

5. Are there other technologies that Dianrong should consider adding to its already expansive portfolio of technologies? In contrast, are there technologies that may seem redundant at the firm at the moment? How should Dianrong manage this to improve its competitive edge with its “technology DNA?”
