What are some reasons why you’d want to monitor Powershell activity in an environment?

Following up on the discussion of SIEM and event logs in section 12, I want to introduce you to a free utility that has become a central component in the security program at my organization — Sysmon. For those of you who have never had the opportunity to use Sysmon, take a look at the official product page (with documentation) at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/sysmon (Links to an external site.). Among it’s many amazing capabilities, Sysmon provides the capability to capture and log Powershell activities on a monitored system (a great resource about this capability is the writeup at https://adamtheautomator.com/powershell-logging-2/ (Links to an external site.). Using Winlogbeat as discussed on TestOut, you could log this activity to an Elastic-based SIEM product very easily. (If you were able to implement the Elastic Cloud we created in the supplemental materials last week, you can practice ingesting Sysmon data into your tenant. I’ll post some instructions a bit later this week with notes on how to set this up for anyone who would like to follow along).

Write an essay that provides a firsthand profile of a person, giving vivid details, a unique perspective and thoughtful research.

Write an essay that provides a firsthand profile of a person, giving vivid details, a unique perspective and thoughtful research.

Why Do Writers Use the Profile?

Magazines and newspapers are usually filled with profiles that tell us about interesting people, places, and activities. They’re usually called “human interest” stories.
They are interesting to us because they take us behind the scenes of familiar places, giving us a glimpse at their inner workings. The writer usually conveys an interesting interpretation or perspective that gives us something interesting or something provocative to respond to.
They may introduce us to the exotic—peculiar hobbies, unusual professions, and bizarre personalities.
They share many features with autobiographical and biographical writing—you can use narrative, anecdote, descriiption, dialogue—yet they also differ significantly: autobiography is about remembered experience whereas profile is (usually) about newly acquired observation—acquired firsthand or through research.
This kind of writing helps you practice the field research methods used across many disciplines: observing, interviewing, and note taking are all techniques commonly used by investigative reporters, social scientists, and naturalists. The challenge once you’ve acquired your materials is to analyze and synthesize what you’ve gathered effectively—to give it shape in an essay that communicates a dominant impression.
Basic Features of the Profile

A well-focused subject. The familiar or the exotic. Even the mundane can look interesting if you look closely and have a unique perspective to offer. Whatever your subject, your goal is to bring out his/her uniqueness, show what’s amazing or fascinating about them and their life.
A vivid presentation: avoid generalizing. Instead of writing about “teenagers” in general, show us a vivid portrait of one in particular and leave it to readers to draw their own generalizations, if they wish.
A dominant impression: convey your personal interpretation or impression of your subject, your own special insights—what you’ve gained by having spent time observing the scene and talking to people. Select your details carefully and arrange them in such a way that they convey your attitude. (For example, if you want your readers to see that you think the 13-year old gamer is out-of-control, you might focus on all the electronic equipment, the dark room, the candy bar wrappers on the floor, and the backpack that is thrown into a corner.)
An engaging and informative plan: you are master of ceremonies; you control the flow of information—how much and in what order. What do you want your readers to fully understand?
Some General Tips for This Assignment:

Do not write about a family member (too close to be truly objective), someone famous (unless you know them personally), or someone deceased (no opportunity for field research). You must be able to conduct an interview or observation for this paper.

Here’s a tip: Choose a person first, interview them in a strategic location (not Starbucks or your car), then research. Examples:

Interview the elderly woman across the street. Go to her house, record the details of her surroundings. Then do research on one thing that struck you (her dementia, her loneliness, her poverty, her deep religious beliefs, etc.). That will be your angle.
Interview your friend who teaches dance. Go to her studio, record the details of her surroundings. Then do research on one thing that struck you (her persistent injuries, her struggle making ends meet on a dance instructor salary, the joy dance can bring to people, etc.) That will be your angle.
Interview a homeless student who lives in her car. Record the details of her living situation. Then do research on one thing that struck you (what caused her homelessness, her resiliency despite her situation, the lack of resources that she can access, etc.). That will be your angle.
Interview a volunteer at the animal shelter. Record the details of the shelter. Then do research on one thing that struck you (the lack of funding, the positive effects of volunteering on mental health, the animal activist philosophy, etc.). That will be your angle.
Guidelines:

1000 words (minimum) required.
Use strict 3rd person perspective.
Include in-text citations and a Works Cited page.
Follow MLA conventions for formatting your paper (double space, paragraph form, proper headings, etc.).
Originality report must be 20% or less.

The purpose of this paper is to give you experience in writing a brief analysis of a law that impacts a business corporation. You can choose a law and a corporation with which you are familiar. For example, you might analyze The Sarbannes Oxley Act, 2002, or the Family and Medical Leave Act, 1993, Americans with Disabilities Act, or some other law, and show how this law has benefitted society, and what constraints it has put on an organization of your choice.

Explain how disease has influenced politics in human history?

HIST 112B: Short Assignment #1

Answer the following questions in a double-spaced, 3-page essay. Writing three pages in extra large font does not fulfill the length requirement – your essay should be at least 900 words. (900 words is just under three pages, double-spaced in Times New Roman, size 12 font.)

How has disease shaped human history?

This essay is meant to help you connect our coursework so far to the wider theme of disease that we will continue discussing throughout the semester. The following guidelines are essential, because they offer a structure to ensure that you are able to integrate ideas and examples from different sources and different parts of the world, that you do not plagiarize, and that you fulfill Breadth Humanities requirements.

In writing the essay question, you can answer such questions as:
• How has disease influenced politics in human history?
• How has disease shaped the lives of everyday people?
• How has disease shaped economies in human history?

Your essay should include an introduction with a clear argument (thesis), several examples backed up with evidence from the readings, and a conclusion. It must be written in full sentences with good English grammar. You MUST include at least one primary source in the essay. You can use the primary sources from ‘Weighing the Evidence’ in the textbook, from Blackboard, or from our in-class primary source activities. You MUST include examples from at least two different continents, or examples that highlight the connection between multiple continents. This assignment is meant to help you bring together themes and readings that we have been covering recently in class, and your essays should draw primarily on material from Chapters 15, 16, and/or 17. That means that your essay must be about the time period between 1300 and 1600.

You must reference all of the material that you draw from other sources, and if you use sources from outside of class, they must be reliable. All of your sources must be referenced in the essay and at the end, using any of these citation methods: . A good way to make sure that you are citing everything that you use, and not plagiarizing, is by having a citation at the end of each sentence.

The assignment is due on Sunday, February 6th at 11:59 PM. You must submit a copy on Blackboard by this time, and please bring a hard copy to the next class. You may use late passes on this assignment. If you want to get the best possible grade – and I hope learn the most – follow all of the guidelines above. You could lose points on the following:

Points Reason
-10 No primary source
-10 Only provides examples from one continent
-10 Uses information and words written by other people without citation
-5 Cites direct quotes, but does not cite further sources
% off total WC = Word count: If you turn in an essay with 800 words, then an 89% (800 out of 900) is the highest grade you can get. If your WC is lower than 900, then the missing % will be taken off your final grade.
