What is a Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) attack, how is it implemented, and how do you defend against it?

Secure coding skills are developed and honed by understanding what software attacks are, how they are conducted, and how you can code defensively against them. Secure coding means building an application to defend itself against misuse cases by monitoring all user activity. This takes a good understanding of programming languages and their vulnerabilities as well. Activities that help to secure code are as follows: validate the request, handle exceptions, create self-monitoring code, secure the code base, and know the programming language.
Answer the following questions (5 points each) related to secure coding skills. Do not include the question in your response when submitting your work.
1. Every request that comes into an application should be treated as a potential attack. Identify and explain the three steps required to validate a request.

2. What is a Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) attack, how is it implemented, and how do you defend against it?

3. What is SQL code injection, how is it implemented, and how do you defend against it?

4. Why is it important for applications to handle exceptions (errors) and provide custom error messages when necessary?

5. Describe what is meant by self-monitoring code and provide two examples of ways in which applications can self-monitor.

6. Why is it important to secure the code base?

7. It is important to understand the specific security features of any programming language that you are using. List one security consideration/tip for each of the following programming languages:
a. Java
b. PHP
c. C++

8. What is a buffer overflow attack?

9. List and describe three principles for writing organized code.

10. What is code refactoring and why is it important for security?

This assignment will require some research. Find a United Nations Peace Operation: the name, the location, the dates of the peace op or is it still current, the why (i.e. why is there a Peace Op there?), do you believe it is achieving its objective (or put another way: serving its purpose), where are the troops from, and whether or not you support what they set out as their mission.

Moneyball assignment

Read the book Moneyball ( written by Michael Lewis ) or watch the movie Moneyball ( by Brad Pitt) and answer the following questions in a 3.0 page double spaced report.

1. How did Billy Bean, General Manager of the Oakland Athletics use Statistics to redefine how players are evaluated and how teams are managed in Major League Baseball?

2. Financial Impact: How did his use of statistics and his “Moneyball” Philosophy impact the organization financially? Discuss salaries of teams such as the Oakland Athletics vs. the New York Yankees. Research today’s 2016 salaries – are the Oakland Athletics still using the Moneyball strategy? (Discuss and provide evidence).

3. Why do you think it has taken this long for statistics to be properly used to evaluate and manage major league baseball players?

4. The Cleveland Browns National Football League (NFL) team has now hired Paul DePodesta (the Real-life Moneyball executive of the Oakland Athletics baseball team) to the position of Chief Strategy Officer. In short the Cleveland Browns are going to pioneer the “Moneyball” concept the NFL. What metrics are they using to identify talent? Research three articles on the (Cleveland Browns + Moneyball + NFL Draft) and comment on actions they are already taken to deploy the concept of Moneyball. Do you think this will translate to success in the NFL like it did for the Oakland Athletics?

5. How did this activity help you apply the course materials? What fundamental principles, generalizations, or theories in Statistics were you able to learn from this activity?

6. What value did you receive during this activity?

American History

Twentieth Century U.S. History
Final examination
Book:Zinn, Howard. The Twentieth Century. A People\’s History. New York: Harper, 2005.
Please answer both of the following essays in one to two pages (250 to 500 words). Please do not focus in the first question solely on Rosa Parks which seems to be the most popular figure to students. And if you do mention her, please say more than she didn\’t get up and give her seat to a white person. There was so much more going on here, such as the role of the NAACP, the sections on the bus (not just white and Black, but a buffer zone in between where Blacks could sit unless a white person demanded they relinquish their seat. Also what became of her? Where did she end up living and doing? I really would like some thoughtful, reflective answers that show you took time to ponder all the many contributors. When Marion Barry, the first Black major of Washington, D.C., died, his role in the Civil Rights movement was mentioned in the words of the current mayor-elect, President Obama and others. For his his troubles, Barry left a legacy for being militant and faithful to the cause of integration. Please try to go beyond the objvious choices and fine unsung heroes.

1. What organizations, events or public policies do you think contributed the most to advance the Civil Rights movement from 1950 to 1990?

2. How have the wars of the twentieth, and now, twenty-first centuries shaped the lives of working class people in the United States?

IDENTIFICATIONS (IDs)

Please write a short definition (two or three sentences) of each of the following terms. After the definition, reflect on the term you have defined and write what you think the significance of the term is, that is, why was it important at the time and why is it important today (again, two or three sentences). You must include both parts, the definition and the significance/meaning, to get a complete grade. It is good to put the definition and the significance in two separate paragraphs so I know you covered both. You cannot get better than a C if you only have one part.

There are 25 terms and you must do them all. You will have to do some outside research to complete this assignment although many of them are included in Zinn.

American History

Book:Boyle, Kevin. Arc of Justice. New York: Henry Holt, 2004.
Four sets of study questions for Boyle: The prologue and chapters 1 to 3.Two essays from the entire Boyle book:

1) How did real estate market segregation shape the history of the city of Detroit?

2) How did Clarence Darrow present and win the Ossian Sweet trial?

Please read all the pages in the book that cover this issue (they are listed in the Index in the back of the book). It is important that you give a complete answer as this issue continues to be a major factor in the situation of bankruptcy in which the city of Detroit finds itself today. And the winning of the Ossian Sweet trial by Darrow contains insights for the legal process as it is used now as well as almost one hundred years ago.

In answering the Boyle study questions, please take a few minutes to look up the word Ghetto before you respond to the question that asks you to define it. You will find the origins of the word very interesting and it will broaden your understanding of how a group within society can be marginalized, that is pushed into a neighborhood set off from the dominant culture (or class or race or ethnicity).

Also, when you think about why Blacks migrated North in the 1920s and not after the Civil War, do not neglect to comment on both aspects of this question, that is to compare the two periods and not just write about why Blacks left in the 1920s without mentioning why they did not leave in the 1870s.

The answers to the Boyle questions should be substantial, that is, no less than a substantial paragraph, that is, at least three to four sentences. Two sentences, however meaty they are, will not suffice.
