Company hiring a New CISO

Introduction

A well-known company (you select the industry or the company that will help you design the plan) has suffered a breach and is concluding its return to normal operation after hiring a forensic firm. As a result of the intrusion, the CISO was terminated. The CEO and CFO are hiring you to be the new company CISO.

They have asked you to create a 90-day plan for the company that will address the issues of the breach and will implement a comprehensive security program. The CEO and CFO want a five (5) to ten (10) minute presentation of your plan that will be at the quarterly company board meeting. You must be able to submit your security program to the board-of-directors before the meeting.

At a minimum your security plan should cover recommendation regarding corrective measures and activities that will improve the company (you may make assumptions regarding the cause of the breach and the weaknesses of the organization, but, you must explain those assumptions):

  1. Create a 90 day plan (suggest use of a timeline) that includes the following components:
    1. Reference at least 3 CIS controls and the reason you need the control, how you would use the control and what the expected benefit will be to implement them and mitigate the weakness you identify (3 pages; one page per control maximum).
    2. Identify 3 Risks that might impact the company and your proposed mitigation plan (what are the 3 risks and what will happen to the company if they are not mitigated; remember they may not mitigated completely). (1 -2 pages maximum)
    3. Compose a Security Blueprint that contains at least 3 areas that you will be addressing. (any format you choose)
    4. Describe at least two security education or awareness actions you would implement and what they would contain. (1-2 pages)
  2. Prepare a 5 minute presentation to be presented in addition to the written document.

After you reach age 70, you start withdrawing $6,000 every month until death. Also, you withdrew $30,000 (a one-time withdrawal for the birthday party) on your 75th birthday. Determine the balance in the account on your 90th birthday.

Financial Management

Today, you celebrated your 25th birthday. You just landed a new job at Citi Bank. Citi provides you a 401-k plan, and you decide to deposit $300 every month for 10 years. Citi matches your 401-k at 100% (matching funds are deposited annually) and pays interest at 7.2% compounded monthly. At the end of 15 years, you change the job to JP Morgan Chase, and you decide not to roll-over your 401-k to Chase. The money continues to earn interest at the specified rate when you are not working at Citi.

You join Chase on your 40th birthday. At Chase, you contribute 7% of your salary to the 401-k; deposits are made annually. Your starting salary at Chase is $70,000 and you expect to earn 2.5% pay raise every year. Chase matches your 401-k at 100% (matching funds are deposited annually) and pays interest at 6% per year compounded monthly. You retire from Chase when you reach 65.

While at chase, you get a letter from your previous employer, Citi stating that beginning your 50th birthday, the interest rate on your 401-k at Citi will go down from 7.2% compounded monthly to 4.8% compounded monthly. Since the new interest rate is lower than the interest rate at Chase, on your 50th birthday, you roll over the balance from Citi 401k to Chase 401k.

You had a hardship withdrawal of $50,000 at age 55. The money was returned to account at age 60.

On your 65th birthday, and you stop contributing to 401-k. Assume that you leave the money at Chase and not rollover to a retail account like Fidelity. The money will continue to earn interest.

  • a)Determine the total account balance (including company match) in your Chase account on your 65th birthday.
  • b)After you reach age 70, you start withdrawing $6,000 every month until death. Also, you withdrew $30,000 (a one-time withdrawal for the birthday party) on your 75th birthday. Determine the balance in the account on your 90th birthday.

Create a class called ”Illegal Roman Numeral Exception” that extends ”Illegal Argument Exception” as shown in lecture.

/in /by

Use a GUI to open the file for displaying the Roman numerals

Modify your Roman Numeral GUI so that it will be a complete JFrame with a menu bar and menus.
There should be two menus: one called File and another called Convert. The File menu should have the menu items Open and Quit. The Convert menu should have one menu item that says “Roman to Arabic”. When chosen, a dialog box should be displayed asking the user to type in a Roman numeral. After receiving the Roman numeral, another dialog box should display the Arabic value. If the Roman numeral is not valid (see below) a dialog box should say so.

You will need a handler for the File menu, and another handler for the Convert menu. As mentioned in lecture, be sure when opening a file with the file menu handler that your ask for the absolute path to the file rather than just its file name (getAbsolutePath() rather than getName()).

Create an exception for illegal Roman numerals
Create a class called ”Illegal Roman Numeral Exception” that extends ”Illegal Argument Exception” as shown in lecture. This exception should be thrown by the constructor of a ”Roman Numeral” if there is an invalid the console, not placed in the GUI. This exception may be thrown when constructing a Roman numeral read from the file, or when trying to convert from Roman to Arabic.
