1.Write an algorithm for resolving a battle among the classic Pokemon types.

       The user should select a type of either fire, water or grass. The computer should randomly select one of those three types as well.

      To determine if the user or computer wins, or if it is a draw: fire is stronger than grass, grass is stronger than water, and water is stronger than fire. Whomever chose the stronger type is the winner. If both chose the same type it is a draw.

       See for an example of what an algorithm should look like. Your algorithm should be at a similar level of detail.

       See ( ) for an example of the interactions and determining a winner (the example has pictures, your algorithm needs only to consider text based inpu

Discussion:

 In your own words, explain what the following terms mean to you as they apply to information security and safe computing: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. Why are these factors so important to businesses? 

Assignment:

• 2.1 What are the essential ingredients of a symmetric cipher?
• 2.2 What are the two basic functions used in encryption algorithms?
• 2.3 How many keys are required for two people to communicate via a symmetric cipher?
• 2.4 What is the difference between a block cipher and a stream cipher?
• 2.5 What are the two general approaches to attacking a cipher?
• 2.6 Why do some block cipher modes of operation only use encryption while others use both encryption and decryption?
• 2.7 What is triple encryption?
• 2.8 Why is the middle portion of 3DES a decryption rather than an encryption?

In today's world, both government and the private sector are struggling to provide a secure, efficient, timely, and separate means of delivering essential services internationally. As a result, these critical national infrastructure systems remain at risk from potential attacks via the Internet.

It is the policy of the United States to prevent or minimize disruptions to the critical national information infrastructure in order to protect the public, the economy, government services, and the national security of the United States.The Federal Government is continually increasing capabilities to address cyber risk associated with critical networks and information systems.

Please explain how you would reduce potential vulnerabilities, protect against intrusion attempts, and better anticipate future threats.

Background: As noted by Kirk (2016), working with data is one of the four stages of the visualization workflow.  According to Kirk (2016), A dataset is a collection of data values upon which a visualization is based. In this course, we will be using datasets that have already been collected for us. Data can be collected by various collection techniques.

Reference: Kirk, Andy. Data Visualisation: A Handbook for Data Driven Design (p. 50). SAGE Publications.

Assignment: Summarize 3 data collection techniques (Interviews, Surveys, Observations, Focus Groups, etc.). Compare and contrast the 3 data collection techniques you selected. Lastly, what collection techniques do you prefer and why?

Your research paper should be at least 3 pages (800 words), double-spaced, have at least 4 APA references, and typed in an easy-to-read font in MS Word (other word processors are fine to use but save it in MS Word format). Your cover page should contain the fol

Assignment topic 

The purpose of this assignment is to evaluate your ability to develop a comprehensive implementation proposal for an information system that uses a systems approach. The proposal should be targeted at a potential sponsor organisation that will need to be convinced of the appropriateness and effectiveness of the proposed new system. 

Choose an information system (e.g., ERP systems, CRM systems, SCM Systems, Management Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, Executive Information Systems, Enterprise Portals, Data Warehouse & Data Mining Applications, Enterprise Collaboration Systems, Knowledge Management Systems), and so on, that you have studied in this unit. Alternatively, you may wish to combine features of several systems. Please note for the purpose of this assignment, mobile apps or other e-business and digital enterprise applications should
