Cybersecurity Assignment
Questions:
. As with Assignment 1, again you are to find recent tweets that are particularly interesting to you pertaining to cybersecurity. This time, while you will write up five tweets, you may use any of the people you follow (including any of the people I showed you or any you have added). For each of these people, post a link to a tweet that is particularly interesting, and summarize it in about two sentences each, using Solution1A:, Solution1B: etc for each. Do not just cut and paste, and do not just take the first line or two of the main content of the tweet. Actually summarize it for yourself. For example: Solution1A: Link: https://twitter.com/Th3G3nt3lman/status/1268832976… Shows how ServiceNow (cloud-based company offering IT services management) exposed information it should not. In its Knowledge Management application, once an entry is created with endpoint of form KB00xxxx, they are publicly reachable and but should not be, leaking passwords, corporate domain tokens, and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) between employees. remembering that ALL of the above line is a single line (no carriage returns except after the final word employees.).
2. As for Assignment 1, again find five (5) interesting posts from any of the security blogs you wish (including those I showed you). For each, using Solution2A:, Solution2B: etc., find a post and summarize it much like you did in question 1.
Instructions:
For this assignment, we continue with you keeping present on cybersecurity topics, as well as to introduce you to basic security in Windows and Linux, networking, and monitoring network traffic. Again, all written answers to the questions below MUST be written in a text-only document titled Answers.txt (e.g. using Notepad++ on Windows, or nano on Linux, not with Word or another editor that uses some non-text formatting (for example TextEdit on a Mac writes to RTF, which is not acceptable.) You can test your final Answers.txt document by opening it in Kali using nano and making sure it really is just text. When writing an answer, you MUST write each solution on a single line, that is, do not hit a carriage return even if the line is long. Just let it wrap around. Also name the answer EXACTLY what I ask you to name it, so if I say write Solution1:, do not make it solution1: or Solution 1: or anything else. When I grade the assignment, your file must be grep-able, so that my using grep “Solution1:” Answers.txt should provide me with your full answer to that question. When finished with the assignment, zip up (as a .zip file) all of the screenshots and your Answers.txt file into a zip file called Assignment2 DanielP.zip (where obviously, you replace DanielP with your own first name and last initial) and submit it on Blackboard.
