Legal Waivers & Torts

/in /by

Please read the following scenario and then answer the below questions:

Tom purchased a ticket from a scalper on a street corner to watch his favorite baseball team the Yankees.  He walked into the stadium and purchased a beer and a hotdog and took his seat in the stands.  During the fifth inning a ball was hit into the stands by one of the players on the opposing team.  Tom was too busy checking his cell phone to realize that the ball was coming right at him.  The ball hit him on the head and knocked him out.  While Tom was unconscious on the cement, another fan stole his cell phone and wallet.  The ushers then rushed Tom, still unconscious to the local hospital.  Tom was diagnosed with a concussion.  Once he awoke, he also became extremely sick.  The doctors diagnosed Tom with food poisoning from his hot dog.  Tom was required to take the next two weeks off from work, as a result of both issues. 

1.  What torts, if any, did Tom incur?

2.  Who is liable for each of Tom’s injuries?

3.  Did the manner in which Tom purchased his ticket matter in regards to legal liability?

Packet Capture Analysis

/in /by

  

You are analyzing packet captures from a wireless network to assess if the captures pose a threat, what risks, if any.

For this assignment, analyze the packet captures provided by Wireshark by doing the following:  

Go to the site, and download the following:

wpa-Induction.pcap.gz Wi-Fi 802.11 WPA traffic  

wpa-eap-tls.pcap.gz WiFi 802.11 WPA-EAP/Rekey sample   

nb6-hotspot.pcap Someone connecting to SFR’s wireless community network 

ciscowl.pcap.gz (libpcap) Cisco Wireless LAN Context Control Protocol (WLCCP) version 0x0 

wap_google.pcap contains two WSP request-response dialogs

Note: Only download these sample captures. Other captures may set off your computer’s system defenses.

Use Wireshark to view and analyze the sample captures.

Create a 1-page table that ranks the packet captures from the highest to lowest threat. In your table provide the following for each packet capture:

Description of the traffic

Description of the risks, if any, the traffic poses to the wireless network

Countermeasures to take to secure network from any threat

Write a 1/2- to 1-page memo to management as a network security specialist explaining the following:

How you can distinguish hostile packet data from normal packet data

How you can recognize any attack signatures in the packets you analyze

Provide a rationale for ranking the packets as you did

After reading Chapter 5: Basic Document Design (pp. 107-131) in MacRae’s Business and Professional Writing: A Basic Guide and watching Nancy Duarte’s “5 Rules for Creating Effective Presentations,” visit .  Slideshare is the world’s largest professional content sharing  community and contains presentations on a wide variety of topics. Browse  Slideshare and identify one deck of “effective” slides applying the  design rules in Chapter 5 and in Duarte’s video. Identify one deck of  “ineffective” slides based on the same design criteria.

On the Module 5 Discussion Forum, complete the following:

  1. Post a link to the “effective” Slideshare presentation.
  2. Below this link, explain how the effective presentation embodies  Duarte’s 5 rules. Explain why the effective presentation applies  MacRae’s concepts in Chapter 5: Basic Document Design.
  3. Post a link to the “ineffective” Slideshare presentation.
  4. Below this link, explain how the ineffective presentation defies  Duarte’s 5 rules. Explain how the ineffective presentation ignores or  misuses MacRae’s concepts in Chapter 5: Basic Document Design.
