Welcome to Week # 3. This week's assignment will help you to fulfill the requirements for the third course objective (CO-3: Prepare a plan to manage functions that encompass overseeing a program or technical aspect of a security program at a high level ensuring currency with changing risk and threat environments). For this week's assignment instructions, please see below: Assignment Instructions:You are tasked as the Chief Information Security Officer for a large Fortune 500 International Firm to plan, develop and manage the functions that oversee a new large scale Cybersecurity program. The large scale Cybersecurity program will be a “Digital Blackwater” type organization (see the description below of “Private or Mercenary Armies” from the textbook).For the purpose of this assignment, you are to search the Internet and utilize course reading materials to research the types of functions, strategies and tactics this organization will use for this new program. Use your imagination and name your proposed organization and follow the requirements below:REQUIREMENTS:4 – 6 Pages in length in APA format (not including a cover page and reference section)Cover PageIntroduction - Firm name and overview of its purposeTechnical organizational proposal:Value proposition for the new organizationFunctions of the organization including managementHow the organization will address dynamic Cyber risk and threat environmentsStrategies and tactics the organization will employProposed benefits for the U.S. governmentHow will the organization make a profitReference SectionMISCELLANEOUS:Use current and real world data to make your points, not just the textbookYour references should not be more than 5 years oldYour assignment is due by Sunday not later than 11:55 p.m. Eastern time.Private or Mercenary ArmiesIn an age where cyber warfare is more common than the physical battlefield, it may be necessary for the private sector to stop playing defense and go on offense, Gen. Michael Hayden said on August 1, 2011. Hayden, who led the National Security Administration and Central Intelligence Agency under president George W. Bush, said during a panel discussion at the Aspen Security Forum in Aspen, Colo. that the federal government may not be the sole defender of private sector companies—and that there is precedent for such action. "We may come to a point where defense is more actively and aggressively defined even for the private sector and what is permitted there is something that we would never let the private sector do in physical space," he said. "Let me really throw out a bumper sticker for you: how about a digital Blackwater?" he asked. "I mean, we have privatized certain defense activities, even in physical space, and now you have got a new domain in which we donot have any paths trampled down in the forest in terms of what it is we expect the government—or will allow the government—to do". Blackwater is a private military contractor that has changed its name to Academi after incidents in Iraq gave them a negative image. If companies decide to hire forces (hackers) to strike back or conduct recovery operations it could change the cyberspace battlefield dramatically (Winterfield and Andress, 2013).

Consider a steam power plant operating on the ideal regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater . Steam enters the turbine at 20 MPa and 500°C and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kPa. Some steam is extracted from the turbine, at the extraction pressure, and enters the open feedwater heater. Using the EES program : Investigate the effect of extraction pressure on the thermal efficiency of the cycle using a pressure range of 2 MPa. . Investigate the effect of extraction pressure on the second-law efficiency of the cycle. Heat is supplied to the steam in a furnace maintained at 800 K, and waste heat is rejected to the surroundings at 300 K.Determine the exergy destruction in the boiler, turbine and feed water heaters? Comment on the results.Repeat the same analysis (1 to 3) if the OFWH is replaced by a closed feed water heater . Note: All thermo-physical properties should be calculated as functions of the state pressure and temperature using the EES library.Assumptions, if any, should be mentioned clearly and justified in your report.Create parametric tables and plot efficiency versus extraction pressure.The report (word format) should include: schematic diagrams , T-s diagrams, thermodynamics analysis of the cycles, results and discussions, and conclusions.
