3. Assess your problem or issue from an interdisciplinary perspective and explain/analyze/interpret how an interdisciplinary approach might help provide new insights or perspectives in solving or helping the problem or issue. I recommend using some of the following concepts to demonstrate your understanding:
Describe cyber defense tools, methods, and components, and explain how to apply cyber defense methods to prepare a system to repel attacks.
Often cybersecurity professionals forget the easiest way to access a system is through the front door and not using a computer from 100 miles away. Creating a castle in which both physical and network security defenses are defined holds off intruders.
Part 1:
Create a digital diagram of a castle, complete with all the necessary components:
Gateway router
Firewall
Antivirus
VPN
SIEM
Data backup
Server
IPS
DMZ
Multifactor authentication
Part 2:
Within each defensive layer of the castle, identify the physical security aspect of the defensive structure and the technical aspect designed to protect the king, the server. (For instance, the castle gate would be considered a physical barrier and gateway router to a system. Not every portion of the diagram may have both a physical and technical aspect.)
Incorporate within the design the physical security elements, including environmental concerns (deterrence, detection, delay, response), by identifying them throughout your castle design. Provide an explanation of the design for a professional nontechnical audience.
Describe cyber defense tools, methods, and components, and explain how to apply cyber defense methods to prepare a system to repel attacks.

Your textbook reading this week sets out the different reasons firms cite when explaining why they cross the borders of their home country and become multinational corporations. Read the three basic benefits highlighted in the text and in Figure 8-1.
Select one of the reasons (or benefits) and defend why it might be emerging as the most important one in firms decisions to internationalize in the 21st Century. In answering this question, be sure to consider the international business conditions today and look for the motivations that underlie these current trends. In your answer, be sure to contrast the less important alternatives that you did not select. It will create a more lively discussion if participants dont all select the same reason to defend as the most important, emergent reason or benefit. This section of your post should be 1 page (500 words) in length.
The final section or paragraph (three or four sentences) of your initial post should summarize the one or two key points that you are making in your initial response.

Review the following excerpt from a hypothetical research article that compared memory-test performance between two groups of participants: those who consumed a caffeinated beverage before the test and those who consumed a non-caffeinated beverage:
An independent samples t-test was conducted to examine the difference between experimental conditions on test performance. The results indicated a significant difference between participants who consumed the caffeinated beverage and participants who did not, with participants in the caffeinated group (
M = 7.64,
SD = 2.41) performing worse than participants in the non-caffeinated group (
M = 9.81,
SD = 3.16),
t(97) = 2.14,
p < .05.
Write a brief paper explaining what the author means when she says that the results were statistically significant. In other words, what does it mean to say that results are statistically significant? Be sure to explain what a
p value
is and how it relates to
statistical significance.
As a reminder,
M stands for mean,
SD stands for standard deviation, the
t indicates that this study was a t-test, and the
p represents the
p value. You may consult page 353 of your textbook,
Discovering Statistics Using IBM SPSS Statistics, for help interpreting the statistical results listed in the excerpt, but that may not be necessary.
Specifically, be sure to address the following
critical elements:
· Provide a
description of statistical significance.
· Provide a clear and accurate
explanation of
p value
and how it relates to statistical significance.
