Provide a 150 words response for the discussion below. Include a APA reference on the response provided. Must be able to meet deadline. The sooner the delivery of the paper the better.

DISCUSSION:

A Caeser Cipher is one of the easiest ciphers to use.  It is used by simply shifting the alphabet a predetermined number of letters.  For example, if the shift was one: a would be b, b would be c, and so on.  Because the alphabet only has a certain amount of letters, there can only be as many variations of this cipher.  With that being said, if someone was determined enough, they could try all variations until they cracked the code.  However, there are faster ways to break it than using brute force.

One of the ways that would be used to break this code faster than brute force is by using letter frequency.  There have been numerous studies on which letters appear more frequently than others.  Some of the results of these studies are that the letter e is the most common letter used.  The letters t, a, o, i, n, s, r, h, l, d and c are found in about 80% of the words in the English language.  Also the letter h appears more in everyday speech and writing than it does in a list of dictionary words.  By using this method, you should be able to look at the letters used and compare them to the most common letters used and be able to find a match.

Another way to possibly break this code is by using short words.  If the code has a two or three letter word, the possibilities are few.  If you could figure out the word you will be able to break the code for the rest of the message fairly easy.

One of the most important documents within a project is the project charter. Review the research to learn more about what is commonly found within a project charter. Using your research, evaluate the project charter below.

Project Title: SIS Implementation Date: April 7, 2000

Scope and Objectives: Everywhere University is undergoing rapid growth resulting in an urgent need for a more efficient access to internal and external policies related to the student experience and programs. To this end, we are implementing a new p Student Information System Portal that will satisfy both these needs and will enhance communication across the organization.

Defining Conditions, Constraints, and Assumptions: The SIS must be operational on the last day of the Spring semester.

Staffing: The project manager will determine the skill requirements for the project and provide them, along with specific team member names, by June 1 to the appropriate functional managers. The project manager is authorized to have one clerical person to assist. Because of other campus priorities, the project team is limited to no more than 2 technical members without specific authority from the President.

Communications: Status reports will be provided to the President, the Deans, and the Project Sponsor bi-monthly.

> What sections are missing from this document?
> Why are they important?
> Recreate this project charter to include those sections and offer suggested wording.
> What are the remaining areas which may need to be refined to prevent “scope creep”?

Outline your plan addressing these issues and other issues.

Need 8-10 pages in APA format with minimum of 9 peer-reviewed citations. Must include introduction and conclusion.

Write a reflection discussing how the internet is being used to wage a cyberwar that affects corporate privacy.

Make sure to support your reflection with at least 2 scholarly resource

The Individual Midterm Report will entail the development of a detailed report related to the topics below. Students are required to complete and submit this report. You may use the course resources for some of your resource material. It is expected that you will do research outside of the content posted in this course.   As such, the Individual Midterm Reportmust be unique and should not be a restatement of items from the course materials. The use of APA is required for formatting for your report, citing your in-text citations, and providing full references at the end of the report.

Note: All papers will be run through Turn-it-in. Any plagiarized papers or papers with a 20% or greater ‘similarity score’ (indicating that 20% or greater of the paper was copied) will receive a 0.

Individual Midterm Report Topics (pick one for your focus):

1. Comparison and contrast between TCP/IP and the OSI model

Requirements for the Individual Midterm Report include:

• Write a 4 to 6-page paper (1400 to 2100 words at 350 words per page/average) on the selected technology topic. The required 4 to 6 pages of your report does not include the page count for the cover page, front matter (Table of Contents), Back matter (appendix items), and reference page.
• A minimum of THREE outside references is required for your work.  Use peer-reviewed work (e.g., journals, conference proceedings, industry papers, etc.).  Peer-reviewed work refers to articles written by experts, which are reviewed by several other experts in the field before the article is published in the journal in order to ensure the article’s quality.  Please DO NOT use popular press items (e.g., Time Magazine, Forbes Magazine, etc.), which are not aligned with academic work.
• Use APA formatting in your paper.
• AVOID direct quotes. Instead, paraphrase and cite (see APA regarding this). Remember, direct quotes are typically done for seminal research, so limit the use of quotes in your submission.
• In addition, provide an introduction and a conclusion in your paper.
• The paper must follow a logical flow, so working from an outline is strongly recommended.
