...You Decide Scenario: Week 3 Detecting and preventing insider threats is its own discipline, with its own dynamics. If you put these countermeasures in place, you can reduce the threat dramatically. First, you can use an IP packet-filtering router. This type of router permits or denies the packet to either enter or leave the network through the interface on the basis of the protocol, IP address, and the port number. The protocol may be TCP, UDP, HTTP, SMTP, or FTP. The IP address under consideration would be both the source and the destination addresses of the nodes. The port numbers would correspond to the well-know port numbers (Vacca, 2009). Packet filtering lets you control data transfer based on the address the data is, the address the data is going to, and the session and application protocols being used to transfer data. The main advantage of packet filtering is leverage. It allows you to provide, in a single place, particular protections for an entire network. Consider the Telnet service. If you disallow Telnet by turning off the Telnet server on all your hosts, you still have to worry about someone in your organization installing a new machine (or reinstalling an old one) with the Telnet server turned on. On the other hand if Telnet is not allowed by your filtering router, such a new machine would be protected right from the start, regardless of whether or not its Telnet server was actually running. Another advantage of a packet filtering router is that...

Maybe it's Maybelline. [2] History The Maybelline Company was created by New York chemist T.L. Williams in 1915. Williams, in his early 30's noticed his younger sister applying a mixture of Vaseline and coal dust to her eyelashes to give them a darker, fuller look. He adapted it in his small laboratory and produced a product sold locally called Lash-Brow-Ine. The product was a local hit, but the awkward name held it back. His sister, who inspired the product, was named Maybel. So T.L. Williams renamed it Maybelline, a combination of Maybel and Vaseline. It is under this name that Maybelline has achieved its now legendary...

September 11, 2001, marked an important piece of history in the lives of many Americans; it signified the day that many America would come to realized that this country would now be fighting an ongoing war with the Islamist militant group Al-Qaeda. As the then Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, went about his day that morning, not expecting the city of New York to come under attack by terrorist, led to the testing of his true strength of a leader. It was his obligations at that moment provide guidance, lead, motivate, make quick decisions to assure residences of New York that everything was going to be fine and they all would work together as a collective group to overcome this tragedy that was done on them. This event showed the level of uncertainty that a nation faces and an organization. Even though this event was never expected to happen the mayor still had made preparation for this type of uncertainty that took place. Critical decisions had to be made on the spot and it was up to the mayor to make sure that these decisions were executed in a manner in which it would help to resolve some of the immediate concerns and problems.

...hysteria. The blight this casts on society according to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, entertainer Bill Cosby, and writer Tony Judt, is caused by ourselves, creating these race and religious identities in order to feel safer, blame others for own problems, and an attempt to make a perfectly imperfect world uniform. After the terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001, Americas view on Muslim society drastically changed, Muslim Americans went from neighbors and citizens, to potential enemy combatants in the eyes of an overwhelming amount of Americans. Determining whether or not someone was a Muslim became of paramount importance to Americans. Citizens, who were once doctors, lawyers, and politicians especially, now had to identify themselves as a Muslim doctor, Muslim Lawyer, or the dreaded Muslim Politician. It was this type of fear that promoted the controversy over whether Mosque being built near the former site of the twin towers should stand; to which Mayor Bloomberg said “Let us not forget that Muslims were among those murdered on 9/11, and that our Muslim neighbors grieved with us as New Yorkers and as Americans. We would betray our values and play into our enemies’ hands if we were to treat Muslims differently than anyone else. In fact, to cave to popular sentiment would be to hand a victory to the terrorists, and we should not stand for that.” (Michael 1). The popular sentiment Coon 2 Bloomberg speaks of is the anti-Muslim sentiment felt by a large majority of Americans...

...Kairotic Moment of Gun Control On July 20, 2012, The Dark Knight Rises was formally released in the U.S. It could have been a grand festival for Batman fans, unfortunately, the tragedy happened. In the cinema of Aurora, Colorado, a man named James Holmes, who wore a gas mask and dressed up as the super villain in the movie, threw tear gas into the theater and shot at people during the showing of the film. Twelve people were killed and fifty-eight people were injured in the incident. As one of the most serious shooting cases in the U.S., the issue of gun control has once again attracted public attention, rushing people into pro and con camps. The controversy around the issue is whether it is better to strengthen the laws for gun control or not. Major media around the world have made extensive covers and reports of the Denver shooting case; they also joined the discussion of gun control because it has significant effects for people’s lives and safety. There are three articles from different media responses to the hot topic. The article titled “Gun-control, gun-rights groups’ ready for renewed debate after Colorado shooting” by Michael Martinez was published on CNN.COM. CNN is one of the most influential global media and authoritative news sites, which can be seen or read by over 100 million U.S households and viewers in over 212 countries. This article notes that both sides were engaged in a renewed debate about the issue of gun control in the aftermath of the shooting tragedy...

...Bloomberg and Koch Deeply Split Over Blame on Fiscal Ills Who is to blame for the financial status of our country? That question brought current New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and former Mayor Edward Koch at odds. Bloomberg, who was a very successful billionaire before running for mayor, nonchalantly kind of dismissed the question by saying “it’s entertaining to go and to blame people….but it doesn’t get better by complaining about it”. He was referencing to the protestors of Occupy Wall Street. Koch on the other hand, took a view point from the community instead by saying how “there’s something wrong with a kid who steals a bike going to jail and someone who steals millions paying a fine.” He sees how the ones doing the real damage in this city tend to get away with things that disrupt the financial state of this country, while other crimes tend to receive harsher punishment. Later in the argument Bloomberg says the banks are not to blame for the crisis, rather it should be the Congress taking the burden because they were the ones who forced certain deals to get done which are now hampering us. While Koch disagreed, saying the banks should be the taking the blame because they abused their relationship with the customers and that is the reason they have been getting fined. And again he added how a fine is not enough, and would like to see them punished criminally. In this debate, I believe both current and former mayor have good points on who is to blame for...

...Why Citizens Should Have Guns Those in agreement with strict gun control laws argue that guns are too easy to purchase. One can purchase a firearm at a gun show relative easily. The Bureau of alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives reports that 30 percent of guns involved in federal illegal gun trafficking investigations are connected to gun shows (Project of the City of New York. Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg. Copyright 2009). It also a fact that guns kills, especially children. Every day, eight American children and teenagers die from gun violence. More than 29,000 people are killed by guns in the U.S. each year. One major reason for these deaths is easy access to guns (Marian Wright Edelman President, Children's Defense Fund). These are very good reasons for stricter gun control laws; however, there are arguments that support the other side of this argument. Data show that the areas of our country with the most draconian restrictions on firearms have the highest levels of crime. Criminals, by definition, break the law. Excessive firearm laws only restrict the rights of law-abiding citizens (New York Times upfront Magazine —U.S. Senator Larry Craig Republican of Idaho). Gun control laws are written to protect the innocent and the law abiding citizen, stricter laws may prove to hurt the very citizens it is designed to protect. We are fortunate to live in a country who’s Founders valued this critical right enough to protect it. They were able to bear arms...

...Aurora, Colorado (CNN) -- One year after a gunman killed 12 people in an Aurora movie theater, the city is marking its losses with solemn moments and a continuing debate over the place of guns in society. Tom Sullivan was part of an observance at a state park Friday, where volunteers read aloud thousands of names of victims of gun violence. His son, 27-year-old Alex Sullivan, died in the Century 16 theater on July 20, 2012. Pay tribute to the victims "A guy walked into a movie theater with a 100-round drum, and one second my son was watching a movie and the next second he was dead," Sullivan said. Aurora victims are getting married The ceremonial reading, which lasted more than 10 hours, ended at 12:28 a.m. Saturday, the moment when the shooting began one year earlier. The event was part of the "No More Names" bus tour, sponsored by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's group, Mayors Against Illegal Guns. Carlee Soto came to mark the Aurora killings, although she lost her sister five months later. First-grade teacher Victoria Soto, 27, was killed in the elementary school massacre in Newton, Connecticut. "Every situation is different," Carlee Soto said. "From a movie theater to an elementary school to a church, it's all different. But we all carry the same grief, and we all share the wanting to change our gun laws." A handful of gun rights advocates peacefully protested the event Friday. One of them, Rob Blancken, said all Coloradans should remember...

...CNN vs. Fox News I decided to focus on the CNN and Fox News networks for this assignment; in order to gain an understanding on the differences between how each network shares information with the public. From my own perspective, I have always viewed CNN as a more reliable source than Fox News, and as I analyzed both networks I find this assumption to be truer than I thought. I found that both networks share several of the same world news events, but each network has a different priority. However, of the several stories shared, one news report caught my attention most; the ISIS video threats to France, Italy, and the U.S. After watching both CNN and Fox News, it was evident to me that CNN broadcasted their findings in a very conscious manner, keeping the audiences best interest at mind. However, it isn’t just the fact that CNN touches upon several aspects concerning ISIS that gives me the impression that they are a more reliable source; but the depth that they get into in just thirty minutes. In the particular news broadcast covering the ISIS video that I saw, CNN gave detailed advice on how American tourists should stay safe, potential targets that ISIS may hit, and the protective security measures that the government is taking along with the FBI. They include insight on how several authorities are taking action by attending briefings and reporting back, as well as further investigation on how suicide bombs were built. When watching the one hour segment that Fox News had...

...If you want to get a glimpse into the mind of New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, it can be summed up in one word: liberalism. Bloomberg is a big time liberal, not so remote from the leftist Obama Administration, evidenced by his support for abortion, support for Obama’s health care reform bill, banning smoking, and so on.. Recently, Bloomberg has attempted to pass a bill that would limit soft drinks in any eating establishment to 16 oz. per portion, and if this law is not abided to, it will result in a penalty for that establishment. Bloomberg seeks to defend the law on the basis that obesity is rampant in American society, and so he’s drafting the law for the ‘common good’, for you, ‘The People’. He seems so concerned about a healthy society for the American people, doesn’t he? Well, guess what? He doesn’t give anything about your personal civil rights. He makes health a rather significant issue, but has total disregard for morality – nobody wants to be living with morally sick people, right? While obesity isn’t contagious and morally corrupt, homosexuality is, and once it is permitted for one couple, it becomes permitted for everybody else, brainwashing the moral minds of the American people. The question that bothers practically everyone is that how can Bloomberg be so hypocritical as to be concerned more with health issues, and yet allow this sexual perversion to corrupt society?...
