Hoaxes with an attached virus Back doors

An attack is the act that takes advantage of a vulnerability to compromise an asset, thus resulting in a loss. It is accompanied by a threat-agent that denies, damages or steals an organization's information or physical asset. A vulnerability is an identified weakness in a system, where controls are not present, or not effective or have become obsolete. Below you will find a list of attacks, threat agents and vulnerabilities. Pick five (5) of the below methods. Explain the method in detail and provide suggested prevention controls. For example, if malicious code were on the list below I would first explain the topic and then as suggested controls I would state: The obvious controls are good vulnerability management (e.g., installing patches on a regular basis), up-to-date antivirus, anti-spyware, etc., but there are also policy and awareness controls that guide users' behavior (e.g., don't click on links in email, etc). Please make sure that your answers are detailed and well supported. You must use a minimum of three outside sources.
  1. Hoaxes with an attached virus
  2. Back doors
  3. Password attacks
  4. Denial-of-service (DoS) and distributed denial-of-service (DDos) attacks
  5. Spoofing
  6. Man-in-the-middle (MITM)
  7. Spam
  8. Sniffer
  9. Timing attack

This assignment allows students to develop exam study guides, while also helping classmates. Students have been divided into groups (approximately 4 people in each group). To work with your group, and post the two required postings, go to the Blackboard course website and choose “My Groups” from the left side menu. Click on the group, then, under “Group Tools” click “Group Discussion Board”. For further instructions regarding how to use/post to the discussion board, I have attached instructions to this assignment. Students may only consult, and cite, the textbook, the assigned supplemental readings/video, and the narrated lectures for this assignment.    Part 1: The first part of this assignment is to post to your GROUP DISCUSSION BOARD (not the class discussion board), an open-ended question (requiring more than a yes or no answer) from the chapter you have been assigned. Do not post an answer; just a question. To post, click on the Student Study Guide assignment in your group disc

  Reflection Students are encouraged to create portfolios and begin to "manage" their careers. When you began a college education you took the first step. You now need to begin to reflect on the next goal, then medium, and long-term goals. I did not complete my final degree until well into my 50's. And that is fine, I loved my health care career. I was eager to care for patients and did not leave direct patient care for many decades. I did know the time would come to do so however, and began to earn the college degrees I would need at the proper time. This is what is meant by managing your career. This is an entry level program. It is designed to assist you in getting your "foot in the door" where you can learn valuable clinical skills. A common and important degree is the Bachelor of Health Information Management (BS-HIM).
