Domain Name Servers (DNS) are certainly necessary for easy access of resources across a network. The applicable options of the above are A and B - below are explanations as to why.

A: Computers generally are set to automatically obtain DNS information from the network they are connected to or can be pointed to a specific DNS server. This allows for records of where resources (network attach storage devices, other computers on local network, or even website server details) are located on a “master” kind of list so that the local machine’s host file does not have to be routinely updated to contain new addresses.

B: DNS, as explained partially by the answer to A, maintains a type-able or “human readable” domain name for the actual server’s IP address so we don’t have to memorize or keep a list of IPs for where we want to visit on the web (although, Google’s 8.8.8.8 IP address does make it easy). It shows an association between a name/domain name and an IP address so that we can enter something simple (Google.com) and the computer knows where to go (the server at IP address 8.8.8.8) so it can show you the content you want to see.

C: DNS would only simplify remote access if your were attempting LAN (Local Area Network) remote access of another computer on your network. DNS would not make it easier for remote access of a computer on the internet, as most DNS used in non-commercial settings are created and maintained by third-parties that will not put a specific record for one of your computers in it - not that you would want them to either, since it could lead to an open cyber attack.

D: Network throughput is a fancy phrase for network speed. It could be possible that different DNS servers could process requests faster than others, but it is not likely to increase network speed on the whole as navigating via IP or DNS records will be relatively the same speed.

Which of the threats discussed in this chapter should receive Charlie’s attention early in his planning process?Ethical Decision
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Before the discussion at the start of this chapter, how do Fred, Gladys, and Charlie each perceive the scope and scale of the new information security effort? Did Fred’s perception change after that?

Answer:

Before the discussion, Fred, Gladys, and Charlie focused on other ends in regards to information security. Fred was more concerned with adding additional software to fix the malware issues when clearly there were easier steps that need to be taken

2. How should Fred measure success when he evaluates Gladys’ performance for this project? How should he evaluate Charlie’s performance?

Answer:

Gladys’s performance should be based on the new security measures and protocol that she has in place for the organization. This of course, is putting a lot of trust into Charlie’s performance as she was the one to introduce Charlie with his new plan on the organization’s new security. She practically had him nominated for CIO.

3. Which of the threats discussed in this chapter should receive Charlie’s attention early in his planning process?

Answer:

Before considering outside threats, internal threats should be looked into early in the planning process. Internal threats does not necessarily mean that the employees have malicious intent, but the case of human error and failure can also be a negative contribution to cyber security. Creating a security program and education end users by creating a security policy guidance is one of the the best ways to prevent simple cyber security issues from starting

Instead of Charlie being named CISO, suppose instead that Fred hired his son-in-law, an unemployed accountant, to fill the role. Assuming the person had no prior experience or preparation for a job in information security, did Fred make an ethical choice? Explain your answer.

Answer:

Absolutely not! By hiring an unexperienced family member over a trained professional, Fred is letting his emotions get the better of him. Fred should consult with Gladys on whether his son-in-law is good candidate for the position or not. Rather than sacrifice company security, Fred could possibly find his son-in-law a position in the companies’ financial or human resources departments.
