Scenario:

Colors Nepal is upcoming with the matrimonial site, service in Nepalese market for the people all over the globe. Analyzing the Nepalese market in the digital sector, we found few sites that started early and they are still struggling because of a lack of business plan and marketing, and also, the target group was not ready at the time of introduction of that service. 

The new generation is more educated and well familiar with the latest technology, but it’s really hard to follow the tradition pattern to find a right person in a busy daily. This service will give them some time to think about their lives and future, which is lost in the routine life.

Nepal lacked back in the digital sector due to its unstable political condition, and also, there was no internet payment gateway so far. However, recently they introduced digital payment, which is a boom in the field of eCommerce.

Information security uses administrative, technical (logical), and physical controls to mitigate risks related to organization’s assets.  A policy is an administrative control. If no policy exist in the IT department, research shows that employees will default to a defacto policy.  A defacto policy means a policy that is in effect ,but not formally recognize.  To stop this for happening, It is important for students to understand how to take the cloud best practices discussed throughout this course and use them to create a cloud security policy.  Cloud security fundamentals and mechanisms is a huge part of the cloud security policy.  For this assignment, read the attached article: “Our Journey to the Cloud”.  Use the   SANS email policy template SANS email policy template – Alternative Formats   to create a policy for the cloud.  Please note, the SANS policy is a template you can use to structure your policy.  If you are having trouble with the links above, these supporting documents can be found in the Cloud Policy Assignment Documents folder.

 Excel Chapter 8 Hands-On Exercise Assessment – Robert’s Flooring 

  

Project Description:

You are a business analyst for Robert’s flooring, a local home renovation shop that specializes in hardwood floors. You have been given an Excel workbook that contains the last 10 flooring installations completed. You would like to explore this information using the Analysis ToolPak. You would also like to visualize the data by adding a trendline to a scatter plot. Lastly you would like to use the FORECAST.LINEAR function to create a fair market price quote for a 1500 sqft flooring installation 

     

Start Excel. Download   and open the file named EXP19_Excel_Ch08_HOEAssessment_RobertsFlooring.xlsx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

 

You would like to use   the Data Analysis ToolPak to create a histogram to visualize the data. To   complete this task, first ensure the Data Analysis ToolPak is active. Next,   use the histogram feature in the Data Analysis ToolPak to place a histogram   in the worksheet. Use the range C3:C13 as the Input Range. Use the range   F3:F10 as the Bin range. Place the output in cell F13. Be sure to check   Labels, Cumulative Percentage, and Chart Output. Position the Chart Output so   that the upper left corner starts just inside the borders of cell F23.

 

You would like to add   a linear trendline to a scatter plot to help better forecast pricing based on   square footage of the installation space. You will position the chart to   start in cell K3, place the sqft data in the X axis, the Cost data in the Y   axis, and add a trendline with equation and R-square. Be sure to add a   descriptive chart title (Price Forecast).

 

 

You would like to use   the FORECAST.LINEAR function to calculate a cost estimate to install 1500   sqft of flooring. Be sure to use the cost data as the known_ys and the Sqft   data as the known_xs. Place the formula in cell I4.

 

 

Create a footer with   your name on the left side, the sheet name code in the center, and the file   name code on the right side.

 

Save and close EXP_Excel_CH08_HOEAssessment_RobertsFlooring.xlsx.   Exit Excel. Submit the file as directed.

Background Information for the Campus Network Design Project

  

PART 1 Only.

Background Information for the Campus Network Design Project XUMUC is large online university in the Eastern United States. The university has an enrollment of 90,000 students, mostly online. The students do not live on campus and are scattered around the globe. XUMUC offer courses in the fields of arts and humanities, business, social sciences, mathematics, computer science, the physical sciences, and health sciences. Many of the professors are working professionals with jobs in the business community, and only 5% of the 3000 faculty have offices on main campus. Due to opening of new online universities in the DC metropolitan area, the university has had difficult time attracting new students. The college wishes to attract and retain more students, many of whom leave the state to attend more prestigious colleges. Because of these reasons and others, the State advisory board expanded the Shady Grove campus of XUMUC. Nine states colleges open their branches at Shady Grove location. XUMUC’s management board now wishes to consolidate management functions at its Shady Grove location. The president of XUMUC formed an Advisory Group whose mission was to consolidate IT functions and implement state of the art network to attract prospective students. The Advisory Group was also to determine why prospective students do not select XUMUC. The group determined that many prospective students do not select XUMUC because they perceive the computer facilities at XUMUC to be inadequate. In addition to the computer applications used by the students and professors, the college administration personnel use the College Management System, which is a Novell NetWare client/server application that keeps track of class registrations and student records. The Current Network at Shady Grove Campus: The Shady Grove campus hosts 9 independent universities working independently. The campus has three main buildings and fiber optic cable is used for backbone connections. The campus diagram is shown below. Each building is connected by fiber optic cable. Because most of the students that attend XUMUC do so on a part-time basis, and because much of the faculty have other jobs, the assumption in the past has been that many of the students and professors use computing resources at home or at work and do not depend on the XUMUC network. The current network is shown in Figure -1. Fig:-1 All the LANs at this site use 10-Mbps Ethernet although they can be upgraded to 100 Mbps. Every building is equipped with Category-5 cabling and wall plates in the various offices, classrooms, and labs, though the cabling and wall-plates are not used in some of the buildings. To support users in Building-3, multi-mode fiber-optic cabling was pulled through cabling conduits to Building-1 and Building-2. At the Shady Grove campus, XMUC uses the services of 4 ISPs for internet connections. The college provides 10 Macintoshes and 25 PCs in the Computing Center (in Building-1) for student use. A LAN switch in the Computing Center connects hubs, servers, printers, and the router that connects to the Internet. Shady Grove campus does not have its own web server. For security, packet filtering firewall is used on some routers. The routers have default routes to the Internet and do not run routing protocols. Based on the advice of the Community Advisory Group, the president started the “Upgrade XUMUC Project” with the goal of upgrading the computer and networking facilities. The three network administrators and the Director of Operations for XUMUC formed the Project Task Force.

IP telephony is used for internal purpose. PSTN (Phone Company) network is used to dial out. The logical diagram is shown below Security: The site recently experienced an increase in network attacks (DoS). The network was recently unavailable for a considerable time because of an attack. IT staff suspects that these attacks are coming from broad range of spoofed IP addresses, but unable to prevent these attacks. They have suggested installing NID so that they can monitor better and stop it while it is happening. Network availability is crucial for the university, because their revenue depends on availability of network. Web server: The director of the site wants to host a web
