A Day in the Life of
a Security Professional
Tim Marley
What is it like to be a security professional? What are the day to day experiences? What issues of professionalism, customer service, project management and career growth does a security professional encounter? How can you prepare yourself to be a more attractive job candidate, and what do security professionals look for in prospective employees? How is security managed at a large institution like Cameron University?

Presented:
The Business of Penetration Testing
Summary
Penetration testing are words that
are used often in information security. It refers to a type of audit performed
on a system testing for vulnerabilities that an attacker may be looking to
exploit. The individuals conducting the audit are often known as the “pen-testers”. Becoming a pen-tester is
definitely an attractive bonus in studying Information Assurance and Security
but learning individual tools to test certain areas of a network will be
needed. This presentation will give a look into the basics of conducting a
thorough penetration test. The topics will include initial contact, internal and
external scanning, an in-depth tool utilization of nmap, metasploit, nessus,
john the ripper and backtrack 5; as well as deliverables to the client.
Presentation was at Feb
2nd. At 8:00 am at CETES.

Technology versus
Psychology: Balancing Technology, Education, and Policy for Maximum IT
Security.
Brief description:
For years there has been active
debate about how much emphasis should be placed on technical solutions versus
user training in regards to information and network security. Indeed, where do
policy considerations fit into this picture. In this presentation we shall
review the merits of technology, user education, and proper policy and how
these should be balanced to achieve the best level of information security for
any given organization.

Cat Week : April4 to April 8 , 2011
Monday: April 4, 2011
Database Competition: April 4, 9-11 am
Eight students braved
the first annual Computing and Technology Week Database competition. In Part One of the competition, students had to draw the ERD to the problem
statement and then create a logical schema of the ERD. Also, using SQL,
they had to create the tables and relationships of their ERD.
In Part Two, the students worked off of a created database and manipulated data
into information. They also created a form and report. The
competition used MS Access as the DBMS.
MS Office Competition: April 4,1-3pm
Six students participated in the Microsoft Office
Competition. The students had to import
a text file into an Excel spreadsheet.
After the import, they were required to insert columns, format cells,
construct formulas that may include IF and VLOOKUP functions, work with dates,
several other built in functions as well as several tools available in Excel
such as PivotTable, Filter, Chart and subtotal.
Time permitting, the students were to create a report to the President
of the company and a Powerpoint presentation to the Board of Directors.
The learned there were many different aspects to using an
Excel spreadsheet.
