Question
Chapter 8, Problem 3RQ
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...
-
o Input controls:
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...

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)

Is FileNotFoundException a checked exception or an unchecked exception? (1 point) 6-3. What is the difference between checked exception and unchecked exception? (1 point) 6-4. Please complete the above program by reading all data from temp.dat and print the data to the standard output (monitor) by using System.out.print, System.out.println or System.out.printf method. (2 points)arrow_forwardWrite a program that reads a list of integers from input and determines if the list is a palindrome (values are identical from first to last and last to first). The input begins with an integer indicating the length of the list that follows. Assume the list will contain a maximum of 20 integers. Output "yes" if the list is a palindrome and "no" otherwise. The output ends with a newline. Hints: - use a for loop to populate the array based on the specified size (the first number entered) - use a for loop to check first value with last value, second value with second from end, etc. - if the values do not match, set a Boolean variable to flag which statement to output (yes or no) Ex: If the input is (remember to include spaces between the numbers): 6 1 5 9 9 5 1 the output is: yes Ex: If the input is: 5 1 2 3 4 5 the output is: C++ codingarrow_forwardDesign and draw a high-level "as-is" process diagram that illustrates a current process related to a product or service offered through the SSDCI.gov database.arrow_forward
