The fourth mission of the Department of Homeland Security is to safeguard and secure cyberspace (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. . The first goal supporting this mission is “Strengthen the security and resilience of critical infrastructure against cyber-attacks and other hazards.” A review of our nation’s critical infrastructure (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. quickly highlights that much of our infrastructure is privately owned and operated, or it is a joint venture between public and private enterprise. Review the DHS Critical Infrastructure Sector Chart as you read the Introduction to Part 7 and Chapters 31, 32, and 34 in the primary text. Initial Post In a free and open economy, how does the Department of Homeland Security ensure our critical infrastructure is protected, especially when it is owned or operated by a private entity? For example, your post could deal with private airlines, airports, and port authorities; private power stations, dams, and electrical companies; transportation systems, cargo movement, and ports; or the Internet and the cyber world. What are the special considerations that must be taken into account? Write your post from the perspective of the Department of Homeland Security. Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources.

Larry Keasler
As part of the nation’s 16 Critical Infrastructure Sectors, the primary objective of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Sector is to directly support the U.S. military forces in the production of materials and services. As specified by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 7 (HSPD-7), the Department of Defense is the Sector-Specific Agency for the DIB Sector. In this role, the DoD is “responsible for leading a collaborative, coordinated effort to identify, assess, and improve risk management of critical infrastructure within DIB” (DHS, 2013, 11). Associated partners of the DoD working in collaboration are interagency members such as the Department of Energy, Department of State, Transportation Security Administration, and a large number of representatives from the private sector.
The vital roles than the private sector plays in helping the federal government carry out its objectives are to provide support to the military in the field of research and development, manufacturing of products and integrated systems, weapon systems and components. Making up the private sector in the DIB Sector are international and domestic companies, laboratories, academia, and logistic chains. The DIB is broken down into 10 segments which include a make-up of sub-segments. The segments include: Missile, Aircraft, Troop support, Space, Combat vehicle, Ammunition, Weapons, Information technology, Shipbuilding, and Electronics.
The types of services and materials that are produced does not define the DIB as the other critical infrastructure sectors are defined, rather the DIB is defined by who their customer is that will be receiving the services and materials. Once a facility that has been identified by DoD to be a production partner, vulnerability assessments are conducted considering the value to the nation. These assessments not only identify vulnerabilities from natural disasters, but also from possible intentional attacks. However, due to the enormity of associated assets, “DoD encourages DIB asset owner/operators to apply a risk management approach to protecting DIB infrastructure. DoD assists owner/operators with understanding the risk—impact of loss, vulnerabilities, and threat—associated with a specific asset” (DHS, 2015, 23).

Instructions The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was form.docx
Instructions: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was formed after the 9/11 attacks to bring together the organizations, capabilities, and processes that were considered necessary to protect the homeland. The focus on the 9/11 Commission and DHS when formed was primarily to protect physical infrastructure (and people) against terrorist attacks. A traditional role of government, protecting against and helping people recover from natural disasters was logically and easily incorporated into the foundational antiterrorism objective in forming DHS. Discuss the following:
1. Discuss the various cyber and cybersecurity roles of the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, and the Intelligence Community.
2. Discuss how organizations like the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (NSTAC), the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), the Institute for Defense Analysis (IDA), and so forth impact cybersecurity policy proposals and processes.
3. Discuss the interests and equities of private-sector entities in cybersecurity policy debates, including telecommunications providers that provide the Internet backbone, security vendors that provide antivirus and other security products, and commercial service providers that provide cloud and other services.
4. Discuss how and why DHS was established, and how cybersecurity became a part of DHS’s responsibilities.

Cybersecurity for Chemical Industry
ABSTRACT: Cybersecurity risk pervades all sectors of the US economy. It challenges the reliability, resiliency, and safety of our infrastructures. The chemical industry, particularly the petro-chemical industry, is a critical infrastructure that is vulnerable to cyber attacks. By its nature, the chemical industry deals with products that are sometimes highly hazardous for people and the environment. Cyber attacks on chemical industry represent a threat beyond the boundaries of the factory involved. This paper presents a brief introduction to how cybersecurity affects the chemical industry.

Role of Cybersecurity in Maritime: A high-risk sector
Maritime, an ancient industry responsible carriage for 90% of global trade, stands as a cornerstone of the world economy. Despite initial perceptions that maritime assets are immune, the increased reliance on industrial control systems (ICS) and satellite communications renders this age-old industry susceptible to cyber adversaries. The reluctance to openly share information and collaborate on cybersecurity best practices has exacerbated the issue, leading to a surge in maritime cyber incidents, up by a staggering 900% since 2017. The NotPetya cyberattack in June 2017 stands out as one of the most devastating incidents, causing over $10 billion in damages. This malware, initially targeting Ukrainian companies, had a far-reaching impact, affecting global giants like Maersk, which lost significant data and infrastructure.
In this article, we will take you through the crucial role of cybersecurity in the maritime sector, offering insights into the intricacies of the maritime ecosystem, and identifying key vulnerable systems. Additionally, we will explore the far-reaching consequences of successful cyberattacks and effective strategies for cyber risk management in this high-stakes domain.

Port Facility Operations
“The terrorist threat in the early twenty-first century is testing the basic political values and structures of democracy, and in particular, criminal justice roles and processes in controlling deviance in society. Terrorism and the emergence of homeland security are changing the character of local policing, not only in the United States, but around the world”…Kenneth Christopher, Port Security Management
Port facility security is not the sole responsibility of only one entity. It is the responsibility of many including international, national, state and local organizations including the private sector (Christopher, 2015).
The port authorities often do not have direct control over the following:
· Customs and border protection
· Police, fire, and emergency medical services
· Immigration and agriculture agencies
· Coast Guard and harbor authorities
· Transportation and utility regulating bodies
· Employer groups, stevedores, and labor unions
· Cargo terminal operators
· Passenger cruise and ferry lines
· Vendors, suppliers, and customers
Collaborations between Port Security and Enforcement Operations
This week the focus will be on the security management aspects of port facility operations. As we learned in week six, the security and safety at U.S. ports is no doubt a shared responsibility to ensure that port authorities develop and apply an operational approach that includes various resources, processes, and systems to establish an interconnected port security program. Intra and interagency cooperation is essential to effectively coordinate security efforts between different stake holders conducting port activities. It is important to understand that port facility security is not the sole responsibility of only one entity. It is the responsibility of many including international, national, state and local organizations including the private sector (Christopher, 2015, p. 268).
The changing landscape of criminal activity has forced a change in policing. Since 9/11, police forces are relied upon, more often than not, to conduct terrorism training, CBRN/WMD training, intelligence gathering (to some extent) and information sharing; along with traditional police roles of crime prevention and follow-on prosecution, public security and assistance. As with every aspect of our society, this change has encompassed our port security systems as well. Law enforcement agencies are expected (and needed) to work with port authorities “to integrate the appropriate level of law enforcement service into the Port FSP and security regimen” (Christopher). Developing mutual Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) and/or Memorandums of Agreement (MOA) will help to define each entities' roles, responsibilities and organizational hierarchy.
When we take a closer look, we soon realize that collaboration.

Port security planning is an essential component of daily port operations. This is important because without it, an attack would instantly shut down day to day activities. There are several important components that make up a complete port security plan. First, it must address the organization of security administration. Second, it has to identify and cover strategic goals. It must also address many other areas, such as personnel training. This is crucial because without properly trained people, with a clear organizational structure, the port simply cannot be properly secured. Ultimately, like all other areas of domestic security, our ports need to have cohesive plans for protection, just like the other areas of critical infrastructure. An attack on this sector would cause massive damage to both the shipping ability of the United States, and the economy. Our economy depends on the rapid processing of inbound and outbound shipping traffic.
Discuss the significance and purpose of the Secure Freight Initiative?
The Secure Freight Initiative is a program to install and operate nuclear detection equipment in foreign ports. “As part of the Department’s layered approach to port and container security, the initial phase of Secure Freight Initiative will deploy of a combination of existing technology and proven nuclear detection devices to six foreign port beginning in early 2007” (DHS, 2015). This initiative greatly enhances the security of the United States. It provides nearly real time information to US Customs and Border Protection officers and allows them to identify suspect freight before it reaches the United States mainland. In essence, this initiative allows for threats to be addressed before the suspect containers are even loaded onboard a ship for delivery to the United States. “All alarms from the radiation detection equipment for any container will continue to be resolved locally. For containers bound for the United States, we are working with host governments to establish protocols that ensure a swift resolution by the host government and may include instructing carriers not to load the container until the risk is fully resolved” (DHS, 2013) The Secure Freight Initiative provides a critical component of the United States protection strategies.

Title: United States. The National Strategy for Homeland Security - Protecting Critical Infrastructures and Key Assets
PROTECTING CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES AND KEY ASSETS
Terrorists are opportunistic. They exploit vulnerabilities we leave exposed, choosing the time, place, and method of attack according to the weaknesses they observe or perceive. Increasing the security of a particular type of target, such as aircraft or buildings, makes it more likely that terrorists will seek a different target. Increasing the countermeasures to a particular terrorist tactic, such as hijacking, makes it more likely that terrorists will favor a different tactic.
Protecting America's critical infrastructure and key assets is thus a formidable challenge. Our open and technologically complex society presents an almost infinite array of potential targets, and our critical infrastructure changes as rapidly as the marketplace. It is impossible to protect completely all targets, all the time. On the other hand, we can help deter or deflect attacks, or mitigate their effects, by making strategic improvements in protection and security. Thus, while we cannot assume we will prevent all terrorist attacks, we can substantially reduce America's vulnerability, particularly to the most damaging attacks.
All elements of our society have a crucial stake in reducing our vulnerability to terrorism; and all have highly valuable roles to play. Protecting America's critical infrastructure and key assets requires an unprecedented level of cooperation throughout all levels of government-with private industry and institutions, and with the American people. The federal government has the crucial task of fostering a collaborative environment, and enabling all of these entities to work together to provide America the security it requires.
What must we protect? The USA PATRIOT Act defines critical infrastructure as those "systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital to the United States that the incapacity or destruction of such systems and assets would have a debilitating impact on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination of those matters." Our critical infrastructures are particularly important because of the functions or services they provide to our country. Our critical infrastructures are also particularly important because they are complex systems: the effects of a terrorist attack can spread far beyond the direct target, and reverberate long after the immediate damage.
America's critical infrastructure encompasses a large number of sectors. Our agriculture, food, and water sectors, along with the public health and emergency services sectors, provide the essential goods and services Americans need to survive. Our institutions of government guarantee our national security and freedom, and administer key public functions. Our defense industrial base provides essential capabilities to help safeguard ...

The G i r I on the PI an e John Morton came down.docx
The
G i r I
on
the
PI an e
John Morton came down the aisle of the plane, banging his luggage
into people's knees and sweating angrily under his suit. He had just
run through the corridors of the airport, cursing and struggling with
his luggage, slipping and flailing in front of the vapid brat at the seat
assignmenJ: desk. Too winded to speak, he thrust his ticket at the boy
and readjusted his luggage in his sticky hands. ''You're a little late for
a seat assignment," Said the kid snottily. "!hope you can get on board
before it pulls away."
He took his boarding pass and said, "Thanks, you little prick."
The boy's discomfiture was made more obvious by his pretense of
hauteur; it both soothed and fed John's anger.·
At least he was able to stuff his bags into the compartment above
the first seat he found. He sat down, grunting territorially; and his
body slowly eased into a normal dull pulse and ebb. He looked at his
watch; desk attendant to the contrary; the plane was sitting stupidiy
still, twenty minutes after takeoff time. He had the ple-asing fantasy
of punching the little bastard's face.
He was always just barely making his flight. His wife had read in
one of her magazines that habitual lateness meant lack of interest in
life or depression or something. Well, who could blame him for lack
of interest in the crap he was dealing with?
121
Because they wanted to
He glanced at the guy a seat away from him on the left, an alco-
holic-looking old shark in an expensive suit, who sat staring fixedly at
a magazine _photograph of a grinning blonde in a white jumpsuit.
The plane continued to sit there, while stewardesses fiddled with
compartments and women rolled up and down the aisles on trips to
the bathroom. They were even boardlng a passenger; a woman had
just entered, flushed and vigorously banging along the aisle with her
luggage. She was very pretty, and he watched her, his body still fee-
bly sending off alarm signals in response to its forced run.
"Hi," she said. 'Tm in the middle there."
"By all means." The force of his anger entered his magnanimity
and swelled it hugely; he pinched his ankles together to let her by.
She put her bag under the seat in front of her, sat down, and rested
her booted feet on its pale leather. The old shark by the window
glanced appraisingly at her breasts through her open coat. He
looked up at her face and made smile movements. The stewardess
dld her parody of a suffocating person reaching for an air mask, the
pilot mumbled, the plane prepared to assert its unnatural presence in
nature.
"They said I'd missed my flight by fifteen minutes," she said. "But
I knew I'd make it. They're never on time." Her voice was unexpect-
edly small, with a rough, gravelly undertone that was seedy and
schoolgirlish at once.
"It's bullshit," he said.:.:.'·Well, what can you dol" She had large
hazel eyes.
She smlled a tight, rueful smlle that he associated with women

The Futile Pursuit of HappinessBy Jon Gertner· Sept. 7, 2003.docx
The Futile Pursuit of Happiness
By Jon Gertner
· Sept. 7, 2003
·
If Daniel Gilbert is right, then you are wrong. That is to say, if Daniel Gilbert is right, then you are wrong to believe that a new car will make you as happy as you imagine. You are wrong to believe that a new kitchen will make you happy for as long as you imagine. You are wrong to think that you will be more unhappy with a big single setback (a broken wrist, a broken heart) than with a lesser chronic one (a trick knee, a tense marriage). You are wrong to assume that job failure will be crushing. You are wrong to expect that a death in the family will leave you bereft for year upon year, forever and ever. You are even wrong to reckon that a cheeseburger you order in a restaurant -- this week, next week, a year from now, it doesn't really matter when -- will definitely hit the spot. That's because when it comes to predicting exactly how you will feel in the future, you are most likely wrong.
A professor in Harvard's department of psychology, Gilbert likes to tell people that he studies happiness. But it would be more precise to say that Gilbert -- along with the psychologist Tim Wilson of the University of Virginia, the economist George Loewenstein of Carnegie-Mellon and the psychologist (and Nobel laureate in economics) Daniel Kahneman of Princeton -- has taken the lead in studying a specific type of emotional and behavioral prediction. In the past few years, these four men have begun to question the decision-making process that shapes our sense of well-being: how do we predict what will make us happy or unhappy -- and then how do we feel after the actual experience? For example, how do we suppose we'll feel if our favorite college football team wins or loses, and then how do we really feel a few days after the game? How do we predict we'll feel about purchasing jewelry, having children, buying a big house or being rich? And then how do we regard the outcomes? According to this small corps of academics, almost all actions -- the decision to buy jewelry, have kids, buy the big house or work exhaustively for a fatter paycheck -- are based on our predictions of the emotional consequences of these events.
Until recently, this was uncharted territory. How we forecast our feelings, and whether those predictions match our future emotional states, had never been the stuff of laboratory research. But in scores of experiments, Gilbert, Wilson, Kahneman and Loewenstein have made a slew of observations and conclusions that undermine a number of fundamental assumptions: namely, that we humans understand what we want and are adept at improving our well-being -- that we are good at maximizing our utility, in the jargon of traditional economics. Further, their work on prediction raises some unsettling and somewhat more personal questions. To understand affective forecasting, as Gilbert has termed these studies, is to wonder if everything you have ever thought about life choices, and about h.

The Fraud Triangle and HackingThe fraud triangle exists when t.docx
The Fraud Triangle and Hacking
The fraud triangle exists when three elements are in place at a business – opportunity, pressure, and rationalization. Opportunity for fraud is usually present in organizations with weak (or few) internal controls. Pressure to commit fraud may come from outside sources (i.e. the boss wants to make sure EPS meets investor expectations) or could be internally driven (i.e. a person that has personal financial troubles). Once these first two elements are in place, a fraudster will commit fraud if they can rationalize it to themselves.
What motives do people have for hacking? Why has it become so popular in recent years?

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
