Q2. Assignment 11.2 (Two
Page Paper)
  Evaluate a given security policy and
practice (hands-on) implementing the needed administrative security controls.
For this written assignment assume the
following security policy has just been adopted by your company and you as the
network administrator are responsible for implementing the “mechanism” to
enforce this policy.
Policy Statement: Passwords are the most frequently utilized form
of authentication for accessing a computing resource. Due to the widespread use
of weak passwords, the proliferation of automated password-cracking programs,
and the activity of malicious attackers, they are very often also the weakest
link in securing data. Password use must therefore adhere to the following
policy statement:
All passwords
mush be strong passwords and follow the standards below.
· 
Be at least ten characters in length
· 
Contain at least one lowercase character
· 
Contain at least one number
· 
Contain at least one special character
· 
Contain at least one uppercase character
· 
Cannot contain your first name, last name, or username
· 
Cannot match your last three passwords.
· 
Must be changed every 90 days
 To maximize your learning with this
written assignment, it is recommended that you research how passwords standards
can be enforced (your choice of the target OS) and that you attempt to
implement this policy on a non-production system – preferably one that you have
implemented for use in this course. 
   In a two page (maximum) paper,
delineate the process you would adopt, specific to your chosen OS platform, to
enable enforcement of the password policy.  Include screen shots of
scripts and/ or application settings that you utilized to accomplish this
assignment. 
 Be sure to proof and edit your work before
submitting.  Always cite your source using APA guidelines. Deadline : One day.
Q3.  Presentation (PPT):
1.  Research each of the following
topics:
a.  Continuous Delivery
b.  Continuous Integration
2.  Create a PowerPoint presentation of three to five slides that:
a.  provides an overview of
what each topic is,
b.  explains how continuous
delivery impacts quality assurance and software release management, and
c.  explains how continuous
integration impacts quality and software release management.
3.  Presentations should be thoughtful
and have a professional appearance.
Deadline: 3 days.
Make sure you place Notes in the PPT.

Budget: $20 is the maximum that I can
pay for this assignment.  I believe it’s
a good deal.
