As part of your Vulnerability Management project last week, you analyzed a report on a Windows system within the company network vulnerable to the MS17-010 exploit. That report was created using OpenVAS, a free vulnerability scanner designed to run on Linux operating systems (). Now that youve examined a vulnerability assessment report for a Windows machine, its time to see what the same tool produces from a Linux system. OpenVAS was used to scan a Linux machine on the network running the companys database applications. This machine is using an older version of Linux because the companys database applications are not supported with the latest Linux shared libraries. This system contains critical data and cannot be taken offline.

Your analysis of these two reports should provide you with a good understanding of the OpenVAS tool and the reports you will encounter in the workplace. The report used for this discussion limits the scope to a single host to allow you to focus on the vulnerabilities you would encounter on a Linux machine in the workplace. You will also be able to compare/contrast the vulnerabilities across the two OS platforms.

Looking ahead to Project 2s VM Scanner Background Report (due at the end of Week 5), you will analyze the results from a commercial VM scanner. Youll be better prepared to assess the output from the two different vulnerability scanning tools and to form the basis of your recommendation to management.

Review  and answer the following questions in your response:

1. For this Linux system, what do you recommend fixing right away? Are there dangers if the vulnerabilities and associated threats are not fixed?
2. How do you fix the problem(s) identified? Can you defer mitigation for another time? How can the problem(s) be fixed if the system cannot be taken offline?

Judy is considering asking the pen tester to rescan the company systems using the commercial tool, Nessus. The organization has an evaluation version that can be used for 30 days. After that, the company will need to purchase the tool. The cost is significant.

3. Since some machines were already scanned with OpenVAS, should you also consider scanning the same systems with Nessus? Why or why not?
4. Conduct open source research using the internet. Roughly, what is the cost to license Nessus for one year?

Task #1: (10points) -Interpersonal Critique– You may watch a movie/YouTube video and using your critical communication lens to analyze the interpersonal communication that takes place in the film/video. In your assignment, you should briefly summarize the film/video and discuss the ways that you did (or did not) see the principles of interpersonal communication.

Write a 1-2 page proposal for a future white to be written for an educational, nonprofit, or governmental organization. Introduction Note: The assessments in this course build upon each other, so you are strongly encouraged to complete them in sequence. As a psychology professional, you will almost certainly at some point work with people who are not trained in your field, and you will have to translate your expertise to a lay audience. You may have to explain how your work will support theirswhat you have to offer as a developmental psychologist to the broader field (or fields) in which you work. Societal changes have had a major effect on adolescence expectations and behaviors. Adolescent culture varies to some degree by age.

Based on the research you completed in the previous slide, write a one-page summary (400 to 500 words) on the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

You may respond to one or more of the following

questions as you write your report.

1) Why is HIPAA important to patients?

Task#2: (10 points) Campus Activity. You may attend a campus activity, event, or club meeting and write a 1 page, double spaced summary. This should be on NOVA campus and be something outside of what you would normally participate in. In your summary, you should briefly summarize what was presented and discuss the ways that you did (or did not) see principles of Interpersonal Communication. Use 5 terms or concepts that you have been learning about in class and classroom discussions. Underline and define all 5 key concepts used. * Due to the current changes related to COVID-19 please work within your comfort zone an online campus meeting or activity works for this too

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

• Provide an example of when value analysis, value proposition, and pricing might assist in gaining commitment

Post 2 replies to classmates or your faculty member. Be constructive and professional.

PART 2 RESPONSE

1.Value analysis is defined to be, “Value analysis is a set of techniques, knowledge, and skills used to improve the value of a product by eliminating unnecessary costs or improving its functions without compromising its quality, reliability, and performance. It involves understanding the components of a product and related costs” (SendPulse, 2015 – 2022).

A value proposition is defined to be, “Essentially, a value proposition specifies what makes the companys product or service attractive, why a customer should purchase it, and how the value of the product or service is differentiated from similar offerings” (Corporate Finance Institute, 2015 – 2022).

By understanding these terms, then applying them properly in our everyday life, we will come to the realization that it is around us more often than not. I prime example would be the features and upgrades on an iPhone. Personally, I am an Android user however, iPhones are an easier reference. Most of the time when a new upgrade comes out there is something different with the camera or the body of the phone or the storage, etc. There is always something “New and Improved” in the advertisements which leads to the customers being interested in knowing more in order to determine if they want to purchase the phone or not. Also, the marketing suggests that no matter how old you are, if you use it for work or leisure, it is still the right phone for you and a friend or a family member, then come to the pricing, Most times there are deals like BUY ONE GET ANOTHER FOR YOU FRIEND FREE/FOR A LOW PRICE!

A product was put out, details were described and the demographic was targeted and the sale was put forth for the attraction, and the people buy into the vision.

2. A value analysis is a set of techniques, knowledge, and skills used to improve the value of a product by eliminating unnecessary costs or improving its functions without compromising its quality, reliability, and performance. It involves understanding the components of a product and related costs.

The value proposition of a company is perhaps the most significant aspect of its total marketing campaign. A value proposition is a marketing strategy that tells prospects why they should do business with you rather than your competitors and makes the advantages of your products or services evident right away. The value proposition is a declaration of intent or a statement that tells consumers what a company stands for, how it runs, and why it merits their business.

How can value analysis, value propositions, and price help with commitment? I believe it is possible to do so by presenting a compelling, customer-focused value proposition presentation and introducing it at the closing. You can improve a presentation by demonstrating to the prospect that the proposal’s expense is offset by additional value; this is known as quantifying the solution or value analysis. Prospects want to feel as if you are communicating directly to them and that their problems have been taken seriously. When the prospect appears ready, by observing their buying signals (closing cues) would be another optimal moment to take advantage of obtaining commitment

Competitive strategy (400 words)
