Basic Information Security Mode
Critical Thinking Questions
1. How could our information infrastructure been more secure if the underlying Internet incorporated security technologies such as encryption?
2. How could the usability of the Internet been crippled if the underlying Internet technologies had incorporated more security?
3. Based on your responses to these two questions, do you agree with Dan Geer's assessment that leaving security to be the responsibility of end users is a good idea?
Design Case Questions
1. List a minimum of 5 threats you can find in the list above. Then, suggest 5 controls that can be added to diminish the threats. Be as complete as possible.
Discussion: Handling Perceived Threat (small paragraph)
In all likelihood, the next car you buy will have some capability of driving itself. However, the increasing computerization of cars is creating the threat that cars may be hijacked wirelessly (https://www.wired.com/2015/07/hackers-remotely-kill-jeep-highway/) . Your instructor has therefore proposed that "Congress should ban remote driving cars to avert this threat and prevent chaos on the road." Post a response arguing for or against your instructor's proposal. Be sure to use the readings and other course content to support your argument. You will complete this discussion by yourself. If your last name begins with an odd positioned letter (a, c, e, g, ...), argue for the proposition. Otherwise argue against the proposition.
