Hi Class,

I have posted your final activity, participation, final exam and final letter grades for the semester (All points are out of 100).  In terms of the final exam everyone did very well with a class average of 88.5%.  In terms of your final grades the class average was a 90.5% which is fantastic as well.  Overall, everyone did very well in this class and you should all be very proud of the work you did this semester.  I was very impressed with you all.

If you would like to review your final exam or any aspect of your grades please let me know ASAP.  Grades have been posted to both our community site and TUPortal (which will upload overnight).

It was great having you all in the class and I really hope you all found the course interesting and valuable.

Good luck with the rest of your finals and have a great break!!

Explain why web applications have become such a target for hackers.  In addition, choose one of the Top 10 vulnerabilities we covered in class and describe why you think it is important to securing web applications.

Week 12 Update

Hi Class, good work last night.  To recap: We covered Web Applications security, including coverage of the Top 10 most common vulnerabilities.

In addition, we went through and completed the Web Hacking Exercise using Mozilla Firefox, the Web Developer toolbar and Tamper Data (Remember: you need an older version of Mozilla to download this tool).

We will not have class next week due to the Thanksgiving Holiday.  We will meet again for our final in-class session on 11/28 to hold a review for the final and cover any other topics you’d like to discuss.

The Web Application Security exercise will be due on 11/28.

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving break and see you all on 11/28.

Database Architecture and Development

November 8, 2018 by Patrick J. Wasson 12 Comments

Why do we store data in separate tables and not in one big table?  Explain to me how we take an ERD and translate boxes and lines in the ERD into a SQL statement.    What is needed in order to design an ERD? What is needed to work with multiple tables in a SQL statement?

For next week: 1) Complete Murach MySQL Chapter 4 Exercises 1-7 by 11/21  2)  Read the posted security readings
