Explain how statistical anomaly detection and rule-based intrusion detection are used to detect different types of intruders.

An example of a host-based intrusion detection tool is the tripwire program. This is a file integrity checking tool that scans files and directories on the system on a regular basis and notifies the administrator of any changes. It uses a protected database of cryptographic checksums for each file checked and compares this value with that recomputed on each file as it is scanned. It must be configured with a list of files and directories to check, and what changes, if any, are permissible to each. It can allow, for example, log files to have new entries appended, but not for existing entries to be changed. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using such a tool? Consider the problem of determining which files should only change rarely, which files may change more often and how, and which change frequently and hence cannot be checked. Hence consider the amount of work in both the configuration of the program and on the system, administrator monitoring the responses generated.

The Threatening Interview Candidate

Read the following case study titled “The Threatening Interview Candidate” – Here is the situation:

You are the manager of a health information management (medical records) group, and you are interviewing to fill an open position for an Accredited Record Technician (ART). Human resources has referred four candidates to you, all of whom have been determined to possess the required qualifications for the job. The first two you interview seem satisfactory to you, and you feel that either could do a reasonable job. As you proceed with your third interview, you quickly decide that this candidate, although seemingly friendly and personable, is the weakest of the three so far in knowledge and experience. Toward the end of the interview you ask the candidate if she has any questions. She indicates she has no questions but then states, “I’m five months pregnant.”

You respond, “Why should that concern me?”

She smiles and says, “Because if you don’t hire me I’m going to charge discrimination based on my condition.” With that, she thanks you for your time, and leaves your office.

On the same day, you conduct the fourth interview. In your opinion, the candidate who threatened you was probably the third or last choice out of four.

You are to outline the approach you recommend for proceeding with hiring for the open ART position, stating why you offer the courses of action you propose.

Provide your responses to the outline request at the end of the case study.

Does the criminal justice system represent an effective deterrent against crime? Are punishment mechanisms determined based on partisanship rather than interest in maintaining public order? Why do Republican-dominated states tend to have higher incarceration rates than Democratic-dominated states? Why does proximity to an election increase incarceration rates?

2 Discussion post

Find a public setting where you can practice your hand at field observation to answer a question that you find interesting. For example, it could be studying who does and does not properly return shopping carts at a grocery store. Or, are men or women more likely to hold a door open for someone when entering a building. Plan on spending at least 30-minutes making observations. Write up what you observed in a 250 – 350 word essay. In your essay, include what you learned about field research in doing this exercise. Here is a link to the grading rubric. For this discussion everything should be in your own words, there shouldn’t be any quotes.

Discuss the typical characteristics of the jail population. What is problematic about these characteristics? Is our criminal justice system biased against the poor and minorities, and why do you feel that they are or are not? What are some strategies that could be used to alleviate disparities in jail populations?

Jail Management ‘ Policy Strategies

Jails house both those awaiting trial for offenses when they cannot make bail, as well as those who have been sentenced to offenses, typically for a term of imprisonment of a year or less. Although imprisonment has recently been on the decline, the jail population is still estimated at about 11.7 million per year.

Consider the first three steps of the Criminal Justice Decision Making Model:

Step One: Define the problem (and the questions that need to be answered): Read the sections titled “The Contemporary Jail,” “Pretrial Detention,” and “The Sentenced Jail Inmate.” What strategies should be used to deal with the needs of the two types of jail inmates discussed? What are some of the main issues in jail administration, and how can they best be addressed? Is there such a thing as “rehabilitation” in jail, and should there be more or less emphasis on this concept? What does the future hold for jails, and how could they be improved?

Step Two: Gather evidence (laws, policies, procedures, data) and evaluate for relevancy: Research jail populations that exist in California. Are they currently in decline, and what might be contributing to the trends you see? What guidelines are used for jails in CA?

Step Three: Weigh moral considerations and direct and indirect consequences: Discuss the typical characteristics of the jail population. What is problematic about these characteristics? Is our criminal justice system biased against the poor and minorities, and why do you feel that they are or are not? What are some strategies that could be used to alleviate disparities in jail populations?

Following Steps 4 and 5 of the Criminal Justice Decision Making Model, write a three-page essay in which you discuss the issues facing jail administration and the best strategies for dealing with those issues. As you write your essay, focus on correct usage of direct and indirect quotes to support your points. Your essay should contain a minimum of three direct quotes and three indirect quotes. Be sure to cite your sources in APA format.

Step Four: Write your position paper, argument, or proposal, using the material above.

Step Five: Balance your position by addressing alternatives and potential pitfalls.
