1. (Mt) – Cumberland University Emerging Threats Discussion
Chapter 6 discusses the concept of correlation. Assume that An agency has focused its
system development and critical infrastructure data collection efforts on separate
engineering management systems for different types of assets and is working on the
integration of these systems. In this case, the agency focused on the data collection for two
types of assets: water treatment and natural gas delivery management facilities. Please
identify what type of critical infrastructure data collection is needed for pavement and
storm water management facilities. To complete this assignment, you must do the
following:A) Create a new thread. As indicated above, identify what type of critical
infrastructure data collection is needed for pavement and storm water management
facilities. B) Select AT LEAST 3 other students’ threads and post substantive comments on
those threads. Your comments should extend the conversation started with the
thread. Repliesstudent Threats Jyostna1.Most of the government infrastructure system is
experiencing cyber-attack since most of the hackers are targeting their confidentiality.
Therefore, they should deploy useful practices to secure and protect their files from the
hacker’s threats under effective analysis. The information that will be discussed in this
paper will relate to the stormwater and pavement data collection process. Therefore, the
team involved should ensure they have a good plan in identifying and mitigating cyber-
attack (Amroso, 2013). The following are some of the measures that are considered:Strom
water management Internal Database: The management has concluded that the information
that has been gathered from the database is one of the easiest approaches of the sample
data. However, the management had some of the simple approaches to managing the data
even though it was complex.Data Collection: The management uses different approaches
such as geometry, aerial picture monitoring, and other better ways of gaining the sample
data.Historical disasters/Strom data: Moreover, some of the data samples were gained from
different historical events that acted as the data sources. The information was used to make
an effective prediction based on disaster occurrences management (Orlins,2015).Sensors
and Road Monitoring: The use of the maps were very effective to sense some of the flow of
the information while detecting the threats affecting data collections.Latitudes and
Longitudes Movement: This is one of the approaches that can be deployed to help the
business to detect and mitigate the disaster occurrences by the use of the geospatial and GIS
systems in gathering effective information that can be deployed to predict the
information.Therefore, the National Infrastructure system should be protected and secured
effectively as mentioned by Amoroso (2015).Transit: It is the responsibility of the
2. management to make the effective approach of securing the government confidential
information to secure their network under the encryption approach.Data Sources: The
management should consider the source of the data and secure the data effectively.Data
Reduction Emphasis: The data should be maximized securely.Storage Consideration: The
management should ensure the data storage is effectively considered.2. Teja
srivastavaCritical infrastructure data collection is needed for pavement and stormwater
management facilities. The collection of data is very important when it comes to critical
infrastructure development. It’s regarded as being an important step whose effectiveness
will determine the results of the final outcome. Therefore to facilitate the effectiveness of
the two types of assets, the following information will have to be factoredCondition of the
assets- these two assets are similar yet different according to the set performance criteria.
However, the information collected has to be quantitative and detailed or generic and
qualitative according to the established standards and practices. For instance, this can
include information about the pavement conditions, nature of the gas supply, etc. (Pontius,
1993). This information will help to ascertain the present state of the assets and to ascertain
the nature of work /input required to make them operational once morePhysical attributes-
this includes the description of the above two assets such as the length, size, material type,
etc. This will help to ascertain whether the physical attributes coincide with the population
or the present location it is situated. For instance, the material used to build these two types
of assets can be revisited to establish whether the assets are durable enough to withhold
extreme situations.Location- this can be done using geographic coordinates or linear
referencing to clearly map where the natural gas and water treatment facilitates extend.
Location as a factor is used to ascertain the suitability and effectiveness of the asset to that
specific location. In addition, its use in determining the time taken during times such as
disaster recovery and maintenance efforts3. Mohan VamsiFor a proper connection, it is
noteworthy that the components and characteristics of two affiliations are relative. The
more tantamount properties, the least requesting it is to relate, and as the components of
qualities shift, the harder it is to compare. In like manner having similar properties
perceives perils more effectively than the different characteristics as the models are
affirmed against the imprint database. So having various attributes may leave behind the
model that the imprint database has and over the long haul, the structure would be in
danger, causing a shut down from time to time. Relationship between’s asphalt the
executives and tempest water the executive’s offices should be possible from multiple
points of view yet profile-based, signature-based, area-based, and time-sensitive would be
doable for corresponding information for associations at the national level. Any of these
referenced connections enables information gathering to process as well as distinguishes
the anomalous exercises, abnormalities or recognizes noxious dangers and code in the
framework. Low Impact Development (LID) implies a way to deal with stormwater the
board that copies a site’s unique hydrology as the scene is created. Utilizing a low effect
improvement approach, stormwater is overseen on location, and the rate and volume of
predevelopment stormwater coming to accepting waters are unaltered. The count of
predevelopment hydrology depends on local soil.Low effect advancement standards

which indeed stressed moving stormwater off-site with controls, funnels, trench, and lakes.
