week 1


Security Policy (graded)

Intellectual Property (IP) (graded)

Your organization has asked you to assist in the discussion about how to best protect its intellectual property (IP). The engineers in your organization have developed new database and ordering software to support a faster process for fulfilling customer orders. Which of the various forms of IP protection will you recommend for safeguarding the engineers' work? Should it be protected at all? What does the organization risk by getting IP protection?





week 3

Your company has a special recipe for snack cakes. This snack cake is a key product in your company's lineup, and it is responsible for a large majority of shareholder value. Using a security model described in the text, describ

Security and the OSI Model (graded)

Security can have a cumulative effect. Consider the OSI model as a key component of the Common Body of Knowledge. For definitions of OSI layers, click here: OSI Layers. What is the OSI model about, and how can we use it when we are selecting security controls?
e an approach that will allow this important recipe to be kept secure.



week 4


Amusement Security (graded)

Your company is in the business of entertainment; they run an amusement park. There are thousands of people all over the park every day. It is very important to control who has access to what, and not just for visitors, but for employees as well. Define groups of people, and indicate how you would control physical access for them.

week 5


Backup and Recovery Planning (graded)

Why are backups so often overlooked in an organization? How do we sell the benefits of spending money on backup solutions to business managers and executives?




Access Control Lists (graded)

Access control lists are very valuable for administering granular control over an organization’s resources. So why do a lot of organizations opt not to use them in lieu of more general super user or administrator accounts?




week 6

Cryptograhy (graded)

Which algorithm is more secure: AES256 or AES128? Why?


The Enterprise Firewall is Dead (graded)

A popular computer network publication stated at one time that the enterprise firewall was dead. It boldly stated that the exterior firewalls of the organization should be torn down and replaced with host-based firewalls instead. Is this insane, or is it the best new practice in security management? Explain your answer.

This section lists options that can be used to view responses.





week 7

Intrusion Detection (graded)

Your organization’s business manager has read an article about how intrusion detection systems can help deter hackers. He or she wants to spearhead a campaign to deploy them around the company’s locations in three states. Since an IDS can help deter hackers, does this make it a worthwhile project, or is there some reason to be wary? Specific to this example, how do you respond to ad hoc security requests like this? In general, how can you keep requests like this in check





Secure as a Car (graded)

Engineering software is like engineering a car; if one were so inclined, there could be a completely bug- and security-free application. Do you agree with this? Why or why not?










week 2 you decide

You Decide

Information Systems Use Security Policy: Write a paper consisting of 500-1,000 words (double spaced) about your experience in the Week 1 You Decide exercise.

Since you are responsible for IT Services and want to keep the systems and network functioning effectively, you will want to provide technical guidance and leadership on this issue.

Follow the instructions provided in the You Decide Exercise: Cryptographic Tunneling and the OSI Model.

  • Write a paper consisting of 500-1,000 words (double-spaced) on the security effects of cryptographic tunneling based on an understanding of the OSI (Open Systems Interconnect) model.
  • Review the OSI Simulation in the week 3 lecture.
  • Provide input on the type of cryptographic tunneling protocols (e.g., L2TP, IPSEC, SSL, etc.) which may be used, the layer(s) of the OSI at which each operates, and also recommend how they may be implemented. Cryptographic tunneling is inherent in building any common virtual private network (VPN).

Physical Security Simulation Report

Compose a report on student experience in performing the Physical Security survey. Students will write a 250--500 word report (double-spaced) on experiences in the Physical Security Simulation.

Note: The correct information for the physical security survey is provided at the end of the simulation. The people who were interviewed were aware ahead of time that the survey was to take place and were also aware of the problems of concern to management.

Students should focus on the problems of acquiring good information through a physical security survey. Did the people you interviewed mislead you (either intentionally or unintentionally)? How did you go about obtaining good or correct information?

The purpose of this project is to make students aware of some important issues that arise in a facility security survey.
