The reading assignment for week 1 is:
Where is infrastructure headed in 2015
As we head into 2016, I find that the issues we faced in early 2015 are still the high priority issues for Enterprise security in […]

That is odd. I will double check.

I have posted the last of the quizzes that will be included in the material ion the final exam.
To easily find the quizzes search for “quiz” and search for “solutions” for the solution pdfs.
Thanks to the folks who identified problems with the solution posting. They have been corrected.

Semester Project
REQUIRED: any diagrams and supporting text necessary to complete the work proposed in your abstract and outline.– Logical diagram
– Enterprise diagram
– Security system-specific physical diagram(s)
– Any notes required to explain the diagram (can be annotations directly on the diagram(s))We have seen lots of examples of logical diagrams in our class sessions, below is an example of a physical diagram (Courtesy of Dave Lanter):

Sorry for the short notice – our class for tonight is cancelled.
In contrast to other classes where I we have not met in person, but I have assigned readings, quizzes, homework, lecture material, etc, I AM POSTPONING THIS WEEK’S LECTURE AND CLASS ACTIVITIES UNTIL NEXT WEEK.
What that means is:
– there will be no new assignment this Friday
– I will push back the class schedule depicted in the syllabus by one week, eliminated the “special topics” class
– Instead, this weekend, I will post the quizzes and solutions to date for you to study
– I will post brief  “voiced over” materials clarifying the final project and encouraging you to contact me to set-up one-on-one meetings (probably by phone) to address your specific questions

Assignment:
Apparently I have not made it clear that when I ask for a physical architecture diagram in this class, I am referring to a network diagram that depicts specific devices on the network with annotations explaining their role in the specific function depicted in the diagram. For example, in previous week’s assignments, I expected to see, among other things, depiction of PKI infrastructure, key management systems, certificate tracking and revocation facilities, firewalls, routers, etc. It has become apparent to me that future classes will have to have their assignements graded to rate them for quality in order to foster an expression of comphrehension and (ideally) mastery of the course concepts in their weekly work.
1. Read the following article:
9 top threats to cloud computing security2. Draw a physical network architecture diagram that provides capabilities to address 5 of the 9 vulnerabilites identified in the above article.
3. Write a brief description of  how your architecture mitigates each of the 5 vulnerabilities that you selected to address.
Send the diagram and text for item 3 in the body of the email with subject “Week 13 assignment” to my tue90933@temple.edu email address by 8 PM on Wednesday April 9th.

Hopefully you all got my email informing you that we will not be meeting in person (again) this week.
Instead, I would like you to watch the video presentation at the link below and get familiar (don;t worry about memorizing details) of the article also at a link below. I have also posted this week’s quiz.
I look forward to seeing you all again on April 3!
