Imagine  for a moment that you are a hacker, an ethical one. You are called upon  by law enforcement to hack into a business network known to be engaged  in criminal activity for financial gain as its primary activity. Assume  you are not to be concerned with any politics of the job and that your  actions are legal and ethically justified. This nefarious business takes  its own security seriously and therefore has implemented several forms  of network security. These include firewalls, Web proxies for its Web  gateways, and VPNs for remote users. You also  know that this business exists much like any normal corporation, renting  several floors of office space to accommodate between 100-200  employees. Also imagine that the business’s entire network topology is  located in that same location. Your goal is to infiltrate the security  sufficiently to find evidence included in the local MSQL database. You  need to remain anonymous and operate within the reasonable parameters of  the law.

Write a paper in which you:

1. Explain your method of attack and operation within reasonable parameters of the law. 
2. Discuss specific malware, social engineering, or any other type of attacks you would deploy to achieve your desired goals. 
3. Assess the hurdles you expect and how you plan to overcome them. 
4. Determine how you would remain anonymous and avoid detection. 
5. Use at least four (4) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.  

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Explain  the essentials of Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol  (TCP / IP) behavior and applications used in IP networking. 
• Explain the concepts of network security and associated ethical issues in addressing exploits. 
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in network security design. 
• Write  clearly and concisely about Advanced Network Security Design topics  using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.

Imagine an island archipelago where all of the islands are founded by individuals heterozygous at a particular locus. If there is no migration or mutation, and the alleles at the locus are neutral, what do you expect the island population to look like after many generations?

a) some island populations will have a fixed one allele , and the other populations will have fixed the other allele

b) the populations of every island will have fixed the same allele

c) the island populations will have a high levels of genetic diversity at this locus

d) we cannot predict any outcome because genetic drift is a random process

Imagine a world without money in which you must barter for everything you buy. What kinds of items would you have available for these trades? Would you keep some stocks of items that you know lots of people are willing to accept? Would you really be bartering, or would you be using a commodity as money? How much longer would it take you to conduct all the transactions of a normal day? Now think about your own holdings of money today. How much money do you have in your pocket or wallet? How much do you have in the bank? How does the money you hold change over the course of a month? Of the money you’re holding, which items are part of M1 and which are part of M2? Are all the items in M2 means of payment? Now think about the role that you play in creating money. Every time you charge something to your credit card, you help the bank that issued it to create money. The increase in your credit card balance is a loan from the bank to you. The bank pays the seller right away. So the seller’s bank deposit and your outstanding balance increase together. Money is created. You contribute to the currency drain that limits the ability of your bank to create money when you visit the ATM and get some cash to pay for your late-night pizza. Of course, your transactions are a tiny part of the total. But together, you and a few million other students like you play a big role in the money creation process.

Question 

Discuss and describe the effect you have on this process when you pay for your late-night pizza delivery, or your other take-out food choices, using your bank debit or credit card. 

What is the effect if you obtained cash from the ATM to pay for this purchase?
