Describe the process of ensuring anti-malware software and data is up to date. Mandate daily updates.

Always Fresh allows external users, such as vendors and business partners, to access the Always Fresh Windows environment. You have noticed a marked increase in malware activity in the test environment that seems to originate from external users. After researching the likely source of new malware, you conclude that allowing external users to connect to your environment using compromised computers exposes Always Fresh to malware vulnerabilities.

After consulting with your manager, you are asked to create a policy that will ensure all external computers that connect to Always Fresh environment are malware free. You create the following policy:

“To protect the Always Fresh computing environment from the introduction of malware of any type from external sources, all external computers and devices must demonstrate that they are malware free prior to establishing a connection to any Always Fresh resource.”

Consider the following questions:

1. What does “malware free” mean?

2. How can a user demonstrate that their computer or device is malware free?

3. What are the steps necessary to establish a malware-free computer or device?

4. How should Always Fresh verify that a client computer or device is compliant?

Tasks

Create a malware protection procedure guide that includes steps for installing and running anti-malware software. Fill in the following details to develop your procedure guide:

1. Provide a list of approved anti-malware software solutions—include at least three leading antivirus and two anti-spyware products. You may include Microsoft products and third-party products. Instruct users to select one antivirus and one anti-spyware product and install them on their computer.

2. Describe the process of:

a. Ensuring anti-malware software and data is up to date. Mandate daily updates.

b. Running regular malware scans. Mandate that automatic scans occur whenever the computer is idle. If that setting is unavailable, mandate daily fast scans and biweekly complete scans.

3. Provide steps to follow any time malware is detected.

a. Immediate reaction—what to do with current work, leave the computer on or turn it off

b. Who to contact

c. What information to collect

The procedure guide may be used by company security professionals in the future. Hence, all steps listed should be clear and self-explanatory.

 

Based on your understanding of Group Policy, determine possible Group Policy Objects that will make it easier to manage groups of computers.

Always Fresh is expanding. The company is adding another application server and several workstations. As the IT infrastructure grows, it becomes more difficult to manage the added computers and devices.

Consider the Windows servers and workstations in each of the domains of a typical IT infrastructure. Based on your understanding of Group Policy, determine possible Group Policy Objects that will make it easier to manage groups of computers. Focus on common aspects of groups of computers, such as permissions for workstations or printers defined for use by groups of users.

What are “market externalities,” including “positive externalities” and “negative externalities? Give two examples of positive externalities and two of negative externalities.

What are “market externalities,” including “positive externalities” and “negative externalities? Give two examples of positive externalities and two of negative externalities.

Discuss negative externalities in view of “The story of stuff.”

What is “Karl Polanyi’s Paradox” (not his brother “Michael Polanyi’s Paradox”)? Give an example.

What is the “Malthusian” theory of population, and what is its underlying ideology? What are the general arguments against Malthusian theory?

What is the concept of “the carrying capacity of the Earth”? What is problematic about this concept?

What is the “demographic transition” theory and the “wealth flows” theory of population? How do they specifically argue against the Malthusian theory?

How does the article “Too many Africans?” critique mainstream ideas about overpopulation (especially Malthusian and neo-Malthusian ideas) and coincide with wealth flows theory? How does the critique also coincide with the documentary video “King Leopold’s Ghost”?

In summary, does the textbook author regard overpopulation as a principal cause of global poverty, environmental degradation, and social/political conflict? Why or why not?

Explain the advantages and disadvantages of the C3 pathway for photosynthesis.

1. How is light energy harvested in photosynthesis?

2. Trace the flow of carbon within the process of photosynthesis. Be sure to include the following terms in your description: Glucose, NADPH, ATP, Calvin cycle, RUBISCO, CO2.

3. If a green plant is exposed to only green light in a laboratory, predict what will happen to the green plant. Why?

4. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of the C3 pathway for photosynthesis. Under which conditions would a C3 plant have an advantage? a disadvantage?

5. What is the role of hydrogen ion gradients in both cellular respiration in the mitochondria and photosynthesis in the chloroplast?

6. Compare and contrast the processes of catabolism and anabolism. Explain one way each of the terms differs from each other in relation to cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

7. Describe how cell metabolism affects the processing of a pear as it moves through the process of cellular respiration. Be sure to list each step of cellular respiration and account for the energy released from the pear at each step.

8. A toxic drug is discovered that has the ability to promote the degradation all the NADH in a cell. Explain why the lack of NADH would be problematic as it relates to energy production.

In your post, be sure to discuss how an individual’s race, class, and gender can influence the way that he or she is socialized.

As humans, we become aware of ourselves as belonging to a group and we learn how to behave through the process of socialization. In addition to reading Chapter 4 of the text, you will also read Introduction to Sociology: 06 Socialization (Links to an external site.). After reading the required resources, describe the various agents of socialization and why they are important. Do socializing agents contribute to an institutionalized system of social inequality? Why or why not?

In your post, be sure to discuss how an individual’s race, class, and gender can influence the way that he or she is socialized.

After reading the required resources, explain why Emile Durkheim alleges that if we did not have deviants, we would create them.

For this discussion, you must read Chapter 6 of the text, Introduction to Sociology: 06 Socialization (Links to an external site.), the article, The Anomie Tradition: Explaining Rates of Deviant Behavior, Durkheim’s classic contribution (Links to an external site.), and the Anomie theory reading from Key Perspectives in Criminology, found in the ebrary database. After reading the required resources, explain why Emile Durkheim alleges that if we did not have deviants, we would create them. In other words, Durkheim is making an argument that having a group of people society considers deviant serves broader functions for society. What are these functions?

The National Labor Relations Act was passed in 1935. In 1944, 35% of the workforce were members of an organized union. In 2016, private-sector workers (those workers not in the government, schools, etc) only had 6.4% participation in unions.What do you think are the reasons?

What do you think are the reasons?
Has the culture changed?
Is the National Labor Relations Act as important now as it was?
Are the reasons for unionization not as valid and they were?
If that is the case, why are 34.4% of public sector employees unionized today?

What right does an individual have to keep themselves private given that everything they do such as order online, pay with credit card, GPS on their phone etc, forces them to relinquish privacy in order to function in society?

Right to Privacy

Individuals are relinquishing their Right to Privacy more and more.

Sometimes willingly by posting on Facebook and Twitter, etc., and sometimes unwillingly [or unknowing] such as recent Facebook release of information to an outside group or police surveillance.

Is this trend going to continue? What right does an individual have to keep themselves private given that everything they do such as order online, pay with credit card, GPS on their phone etc, forces them to relinquish privacy in order to function in society?

what is Right to Privacy?
