Program Plan Intro

System vulnerability:

  • When huge data amounts are been kept in electronic form, it becomes susceptible to many threats.
  • The information systems in many locations are been interconnected through communication networks.
  • The unauthorized access can occur at many access points in network and is not limited to single location.
  • The data flowing over networks could be accessed; valuable information could be stolen while transmission or data could be altered without authorization.
  • The denial-of-service attacks are launched by intruders to disrupt website operations.
  • Internets are vulnerable than internal networks as it is open to everyone.

Explanation of Solution

Application Controls:

  • Application controls denote specific controls that are exclusive to each application.
  • It includes both manual as well as automated procedures.
  • It ensures that authorized data is been processed by application.
  • The types include:
    • o Input controls:
      • It checks data for correctness as well as completeness while they go in system...

Explanation of Solution

Risk assessment function:

  • A risk assessment would determine risk level to firm if an explicit activity is not controlled properly.
  • The information assets value, vulnerability point, likely problem frequency and damage potential can be determined by business managers.
  • Controls could be added or adjusted to focus on greater risk areas.
  • Security risk analysis would involve determination of what is needed to be protected and the manner to protect.
  • It denotes an examining process for risks of firm and ranking for those risks by severity level.
  • The cost effective decisions are been involved in process...

Explanation of Solution

Security policy, Acceptable use policy and Identity management:

  • A security policy denotes ranking of information risks, identification of acceptable goals of security as well as identification of mechanism to achieve goals.
    • o It drives policies that determine acceptable information resource usage of firm.
    • o It determines access details of company’s information assets.
  • An acceptable use policy denotes acceptable uses of resources of firm and equipment for computing.
    • o It includes desktop, laptop, wireless devices, Internet and telephones.
    • o It clarifies privacy, responsibility of user as well as personal usage for company equipment policies...

Explanation of Solution

Information systems auditing promotes control and security:

  • Information system auditing determines effectiveness of information system security as well as control.
  • An MIS audit would identify all control...

When the FCC added Color Television to the Industry Standards, they went with the system developed in the 1940s by Peter Goldman for CBS.   Question 15 options:   True   False Part of the reason that many critics disliked 1950s gameshows was the fact that gameshows offered one of the few opportunities to see unscripted interactions with "real" (average/non-famous) people on television.   Question 16 options:   True   False The Andy Griffith Show is an example of the "rural revival" shows that become enormously popular on 1960s American television.   Question 19 options:   True   False During the Network Era, the hours before primetime each day were exclusively devoted to locally-produced programming, not programming dictated by an affiliate station's parent network.   Question 20 options:   True   False
Although color television was not added to the industry standard until 1956, CBS had been broadcasting selected special events in color as early as 1950.   Question 1 options:   True   False Two key factors in creating the Network Era of American television were the FCC licensing freeze and ______________.   Question 4 options:   The Quiz Show Scandals   Habitual Viewing   Operation Frontal Lobes   Drop-In Viewing Least Objectionable Programming was designed to embrace the public service-oriented vision of using television to elevate mass culture and enrich viewers.   Question 6 options:   True   False By the end of the 1950s, all three remaining networks (NBC, CBS, & ABC) were broadcasting their entire nightly programming schedule in full color.   Question 9 options:   True   False
7. See the code below and solve the following. public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { int result = 0; } result = fn(2,3); System.out.println("The result is: + result); // fn(x, 1) = x // fn(x, y) = fn(x, y-1) + 2, when y>1 public static int fn(int x, int y) { if (x <= 1) return x; else return fn(x, y-1) + 2; } } 7-1. This program has a bug that leads to infinite recursion. Modify fn(int x, int y) method to fix the problem. (2 point) 7-2. Manually trace the recursive call, fn(2,3) and show the output (step by step). (2 point) 7-3. Can you identify the Base Case in recursive method fn(int x, int y)? (1 point)
