7. How did Stuxnet work? 

8. What was the Arpanet?

9. Deep brain stimulation is a treatment for Parkinson’s disease. Medical devices such as these are now becoming accessible through the web. Consider the dangers (threat surface)?

10. What is the Red Team?

You are tasked with examining Artemis Financial’s web-based software application by conducting a vulnerability assessment. Implementing what you have learned so far and using the supporting materials provided to assist you, review and analyze the security vulnerabilities specific to Artemis Financial’s web-based software application and document the following in the Vulnerability Assessment Report Template.

1. Interpreting Client Needs: Review the scenario to determine your client’s needs and potential threats and attacks associated with their application and software security requirements. Document your findings in your Vulnerability Assessment Report. Consider the following regarding how companies protect against external threats based on the scenario information:
   • What is the value of secure communications to the company?
   • Are there any international transactions that the company produces?
   • Are there governmental restrictions about secure communications to consider?
   • What external threats might be present now and in the immediate future?
   • What are the “modernization” requirements that must be considered, such as the role of open source libraries and evolving web application technologies?
2. Areas of Security: Use what you’ve learned in Step 1 and refer to the Vulnerability Assessment Process Flow Diagram provided. Think about the functionality of the software application to identify which areas of security are applicable to Artemis Financial’s web application. Document your findings in your Vulnerability Assessment Report and justify your reasoning for why each area is relevant to the software application.

*Please note: Not all seven areas of security identified in the Vulnerability Assessment Process Flow Diagram may be applicable for the company’s software application.

1. Manual Review: Refer to the seven security areas outlined in the Vulnerability Assessment Process Flow Diagram. Use what you’ve learned in Steps 1 and 2 to guide your manual review. Identify all vulnerabilities in the code base by manually inspecting the code. Document your findings in your Vulnerability Assessment Report. Be sure to include a description identifying where the vulnerabilities are found (specific class file, if applicable).
2. Static Testing: Integrate the dependency check plug-in into Maven by following the instructions outlined in the tutorial provided. Run a dependency check on Artemis Financial’s software application to identify all security vulnerabilities in the code. Specifically, record the following from the dependency check report in your Vulnerability Assessment Report:
   1. The names or vulnerability codes of the known vulnerabilities
   2. A brief description and recommended solutions provided by the dependency check report
   3. Attribution (if any) that documents how this vulnerability has been identified or documented previously
3. Mitigation Plan: Interpret the results from the manual review and static testing report. Identify steps to remedy the identified security vulnerabilities by creating an action list that documents how to fix each vulnerability in your Vulnerability Assessment Report.

*Please note: You do not need to fix these vulnerabilities in this project.

Question 1 (35%)

Assignment description

You should be able to start solving this TMA part after studying week 3. We expect you to develop a client-side application that connects to any website (online) and execute the HTTP get command to retrieve any web page content. You are free to choose the programming language, we recommend JAVA, as it is the language we are using in this course. It is up to you, which technology to use, whether low level using socket or higher level using for instance HttpURLConnection library JAVA packages, it is about using the HTTP client commands.

We expect a desktop client application having at least the following features:

1- The URL of the website should be entered by the user once the program runs. [5 marks]

2- To retrieve and display the server response header information. [5 marks]

3- Read and display the source (HTML) contents of the web page. [5 marks]

4- To save the retrieved information in a text file with HTLM extension. [5 marks]

5- To deal with exceptions in case something goes wrong. [5 marks]

6- Screen shots (at least two) showing that the client application runs properly. [5 marks]

You need to provide the whole project source code.

Along with your project, please create a file named README. txt that contains your name and email address along with the name of your application and a brief description of programming langue used how to run the application whether using IDE or you provided an executable, in all cases you should provide the source code of your project. [5 marks]

Question 2 (40%)

You should be able to start solving this TMA part after studying week 4. We expect you to practice developing a server-side web application (we recommend you to use JAVA servlets) to generate a response to an HTTP get request. 

It is up to you to decide what the web application should do, but we will grade it based on the technologies used. We expect a web application having at least the following features:

1- It contains a get method that response to a get HTTP client request [5 marks]

2- The server side get method receives at least one parameter form the HTTP client request. [10 marks]

3- The get method response should include the received parameter and other content. [5 marks]

4- We expect you to run the client application developed in part1 to execute the server-side web application and retrieve its content. [5 marks]

5- We except you to provide an HTML page (using the form tag) that can be used to execute the web application as an alternative to the client application created in question 1. [5 marks]

6- Screen shots (at least two) showing that the execution of the website runs properly. [5 marks]

Along with your project, please create a file named README. txt that contains your name and email address along with the name of your application and a brief description of programming langue used how to run the application, in all cases you should provide the source code of your project. [5 marks]

Question 3 (25%)

Assignment description

You should be able to start solving this TMA part after studying week 5. We want you to write code to perform symmetric encryption on a string plaintext using a ciphering algorithm such as DES, AES or TripleDES. 

§ The parameter sent form the client application in the previous questions should be encrypted before being sent to the server-side application. [10 marks].

§ We expect also that the server-side application should be updated to decrypt the parameter received [15 marks]. 

Along with your app, please create a file named README. txt that contains your name and email address along with the name of your app and a brief description of what the application does, along with any special instructions that the user might need to know in order to use it properly (if there are any). 

README. Txt file content example:

Sami  Student <[email protected]>

Programming language: JAVA

All application can run within NetBeans IDE and any standard web browser.

How to structure the submitted files for the three questions?

§ Create a folder and call it “TM352_YourID_BranchName_FALL2019”, inside this folder create a folder for each questions and call it question (replace X with 1 for question1 and 2 for question2) and put each app project in the corresponding folder. 

§ Zip the folder “TM352_YourID_BranchName_ FALL2019”and submit it as single file. [2 marks]

Chapter 11 – Review the employment challenge in the digital era (as well as the entire chapter).  Reflect on the various challenges are present in the digital era.  Will things get better or more complicated as times goes on?  Explain.  What are some methods to assimilate new generations into the workforce to think about competitive advantage?
