Describe how you would create a Python program that calculates the exact amount of change to give a customer in denominations of quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. For example, if the change is 79 cents, how many of each coin would be needed to give change? Include the necessary code and code descriptions.

Say you work for an educational institution and have just rolled out the policy. The instructor is livid that you have just moved to 16 character passwords for all staff and students. The complaint is that the longer password “harms” instructors and students by giving them one more thing to have to deal with and one more time-consuming thing in their day.   Where would you say the selling process has failed with this instructor? What steps would you take to win their hearts-and-minds?

Assignment Content Securing company data is not as simple as backing up to another hard drive. It is important to have backup tools, processes, and policies for both business continuity and disaster recovery plans. In the final section of your playbook, create a 3- to 4-page outline of backup policies for when the data center is inaccessible. Include the following in your outline: A list of tools used for backup purposes An explanation of the following: Where employees should work from that day How employees can get to their data The communication methods about updates A step-by-step guide to recover your databases and telecommunications A step-by-step guide to recover and provide any additional company assets A description of policies for backup media storage A description of policies for encryption of backup data Note: Numbered or bulleted steps/guidelines make the document easy to for others to follow under potential stressful situations. Paragraphs can be used to help support the steps/guidelines. Cite at least two resources within the assignment in APA format.

Complete chapters 4 and 5 of the dissertation. I have started chapter four – so your should align with the format that is currently in place.  Along with the dissertation (work in progress), I will also provide a guide that describes the format of a completed dissertation.

The goal is to do the Literature Review chapter of a Masters/Dissertation around the topic of Data Loss/Leakage Prevention. I already have some pages done (which i can share after to ensure the document is complemented with new topics and not the same) and the goal is to improve them (optionally) and create new content (around 20 pages) around the topic of Data Loss Prevention (Computer Science). It should include at least and not limited to:  – Traditional technologies used to protect information (IPS/HIPS), Firewall, AV (to explain how they are different from DLP)  – How DLP works  – DLP Architecture  – Detection technologies (DAR, DIM, DIU)  – disk encryption to complement DLP Solutions  – data breaches  – insider threats   Being the Literature Review a key chapter in a Master Thesis, solid sources/references are key. i can also provide some material around the subject.

My initial discussion should be at least 2 paragraphs. I will post 2 peers discussions at the bottom. A response to my peers should be at least 1 paragraph. Very simple The Module Eight required resources discuss a couple of the new and changing technologies that will continue to impact how we communicate now and may communicate in the future. For this discussion, you will consider what you have learned throughout the course about communicating with non-technical audiences and stakeholders and how communication technology could impact that communication in the future. In an initial post: Choose a single technology that currently exists and discuss: Your predictions for how the technology will change over the next 10 years. How changes to the technology might impact communication in your current or future workplace. In a response to two peers: Agree or disagree with the initial poster’s predictions for the future of the selected technology. Provide recommendations for how you can stay up to date with this technology as it changes over the next 10 years. Peer: Bradley I predict that over the next 10 years technology will change even to meet the new demand by consumers. For example the crisis we are facing now with COVID-19 caused a lot of businesses to shut down and the ones that are lucky to adapt to use technology are fighting to keep their business open. The retail chain I work for started to use FedEx to ship customers orders to their house that did not want to come inside the store to pick it up. I also noticed more and more businesses started using online ordering and curbside up in effort to meet the consumer needs. The way technology will change the workplace is that more business will start using remote access. The need to own or rent an office space will soon be not needed for a lot of companies. Running a business remotely from home especially in the crisis we face now is more important than ever. I feel that employee will be more engaged in a clam relaxed environment which the business productive level will increase (Three Future Workplace Realities You Must Be Prepared For, 2018). Peer: Jennifer Being in the medical field and with the current pandemic situation one technology I can talk about is video camera calling. At the practice I work those who are high risk and should be staying home during the pandemic, but still need to have their doctors appointments are being taken care of by telemedicine appointments. Telemedicine is having a doctors visit from the comfort of your home through video camera with your doctor. This technology has been very useful for us during this pandemic. Over the next 10 year I think video calling will be more popular and phone calls will not exist. I think it will get to a point where video calling will be the only option to communicate with one another. Phone calls, text messaging, emailing all these will be left behind and video calling will be the trend. I think video calling taking over will impact my current workplace (medical field) in a good way. Sometimes messages can be miss interpreted through email or text messages. I think a video call will make communication between patients and myself easier. Looking at someone while they speak can help understand the feeling, meaning, emotion, and affect behind the conversation.

My initial discussion should be at least 2 paragraphs. I will post 2 peers discussions at the bottom. A response to my peers should be at least 1 paragraph. Very simple In this discussion, you will demonstrate the knowledge and skills you feel inform you as an IT professional. You will first conduct research in finding an article or story that you feel illustrates security breaches of data.  In your initial post, share an article or story that you feel illustrates security breaches of data. Identify what connections you see between the breach and aspects of the labs and project you engaged in during this module.  In responding to your peers, identify what current or emerging technologies or trends may exacerbate or mitigate security breaches like the one your peer has identified and explain why. ///// peer: Virgil In September 2017, Equifax’s database was breached and exposed personal information of over 147 million people. Names, DOB, SSN’s and credit card numbers are just a few examples of what was stolen from these individuals. Even the CEO was a victim of this attack. The company failed to patch a known vulnerability within the server, which allowed the attackers to create a web shell over the server and continuously gather information on users for over two months and ultimately gain access to an encrypted file. This file gave the intruders access to consumer credit report data. There were over 9,000 queries on the databases and 265 separate occasions when information was downloaded. The deadline to file a claim in this settlement was January 22, 2020, this settlement includes up to $425 million to help the affected individuals. After this date, a claim can still be filed if someone incurs any unusual expenses starting from the deadline to file until January 22, 2024. The connection I see in this article/situation to the labs throughout this course is patching. The company knew about a vulnerability, on an older machine, and chose not to patch it. Also, monitoring your network. Equifax could not see the attackers because the machine used to monitor their network was not compliant nor active due to expired certifications. Paying attention to your network and recognizing anomalies is important in intrusion detection/prevention. Adhering to recommended patches distributed by vendors is essential in hardening your network.                                                                                                                                 References Whittaker, Z. (2018, December 10). Equifax breach was ‘entirely preventable’ had it used basic security measures, says House report. Retrieved from https://techcrunch.com/2018/12/10/equifax-breach-preventable-house-oversight-report/ peer: Robert Hello class, One of the more well known breaches was the Target breach in 2013. Originally, a phishing email led to malware being installed through a vendor that worked with Target. Rights were then elevated and the malware worked through systems until a program was installed on Target’s POS credit card machines. The labs where we were able to use exploits definitely showed how easy it is to get malware on a system once you find a vulnerability. Hence us learning how to do vulnerability testing and closing those vulnerabilities! https://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/12/sources-target-investigating-data-breach/
