allowed to de-serialize and stops those classes from loading, forcefully making them non-deserializable. An example of this is the “org.apache.commons.collections.functors.InvokerTransformer” class that can be added to the list. This process is accomplished by checks made prior to the ObjectInputStream.resolveClass call. If the class being loaded is on the list of classes that should not be allowed, an UnsupportedOperationException is thrown instead of the resolveClass being loaded; the class is never loaded and thus is not deserializable. (Katenga, 2015)
Another option is to manually delete the InvokerTransformer class. This class is the main reason why the Java deserialization weakness is allowed to exploit systems. Although instead of

Although, this is a feasible solution, it can be an expensive one to implement because of the amount of extra functionality that comes with the Burp Extender. It is also not supported across all servers and containers and therefore may not be feasible. (Portswigger, 2016)
The biggest problem is the knowledge of the attack port and domain that the system is running on. If these were changed and access is restricted, it would make it much more difficult for the attacker to exploit a system. A random port should therefore be assigned per domain and access to the servers restricted to only specific IP addresses which can be put on a whitelist. Embedded LDAP directories can be put into place that allows only specified users access to the server’s console and settings. However, an external LDAP directory is recommended as the embedded one can still be compromised. A Splunk report describing any changes to these directories should therefore be setup. This will notify administrators if any changes are made to

Description of Application of Chosen Countermeasure
The method of attack chosen was to attack a WebLogic domain running on a Linux CentOS box making use of Kali Linux as the attackers chosen use of operating system. The attacker would then use the “ysoserial” tool to create a malicious payload. The “ysoserial” tool would then be used to send that
I believe Reconstruction hurt the south more than it was supposed to help. The south was broke and homeless. The money they did have had no value to the United States and homes and schools were burned or damaged during the war. Reconstruction was made to reform the union, change how the south ran things, and to help the newly freed slaves come into society. Lincoln created the Ten Percent Plan. The goal was for the south. To be readmitted into the union, at least ten percent of the voting population had to keep loyalty to the U.S. After the assignation of Lincoln, President Johnson adopted the plan and had to make an agreement with the Radical Republicans in congress that the southern states needed to abolish slavery for good.
During the period of reconstruction in the U.S., from 1865-1877, there were plans put in place by Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, and Congress in hopes of a brighter future. Reconstruction took place after the Civil War occurred in the U.S. from 1861-1865. Abraham Lincoln was the President during the Civil War, and he had plans prepared at the end of his presidency because he sensed that the nation would have to be rebuilt through a reconstruction period. Once he was assassinated in 1865, his successor, Andrew Johnson had his own ideas for the country involving the issue of reconstruction. In addition to those two Presidents, Congress was active throughout the reconstruction era. All of the plans set by Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson,
After the Civil War, the United States had many problems to solve. The country had to figure out how to integrate newly freed slaves into society and bring the former Confederate states back into the Union. Reconstruction was period of time after the civil war in which the United States addressed these problems. Reconstruction had two different phases: Presidential Reconstruction took place from 1865 to 1867, and Congressional Reconstruction took place from 1867 to 1877. Presidential Reconstruction began with Abraham Lincoln, who proposed the Proclamation of Amnesty and the ten percent oath plan. Lincoln was focused on leniency and forgiveness; under his plan southerners would take an oath of loyalty to the Union, and after only ten percent of a state’s voters had taken this oath, the state could be readmitted. After Lincoln’s assassination, Andrew Johnson took over Reconstruction. Johnson wanted to punish landowners, but liberally handed out pardons, as he greatly enjoyed the power that he had over southerners. Under Johnson, former confederates were re-elected, and southern states discriminated blacks. Eventually, Congress took over Reconstruction. During Congressional Reconstruction, the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments were passed, and the freedman’s bureau was created. Overall, the failures of Reconstruction outweighed the failures because it took a very long time for it to achieve its goals, and the South was still able to
Today, people are still facing issues with the United States government on their freedoms. Many people view that they may not have all of the rights that the person next to them have because of their skin color, religious beliefs, and family heritage. It has been almost non-stop fighting against the government to establish the equal rights of all humans in the United States. There are still so many questions that have not been answered since the Reconstruction era. The United States government is still working on these issues attempting to help as many people as they can.
America has gone though many political changes since its birth as a nation. Many presidents have come and gone, trying to bring about change, thus creating revolutionary moments in this country’s history. These “revolutionary movements” have created lasting impressions on the United States that helped mold the nation that it is today. One such movement was Reconstruction. Reconstruction was a time in America consisting of reuniting the country and pulling it from the economic catastrophe that stemmed from the Civil War. The reconstruction era had dealt with three separate plans: the Lincoln Plan, the Johnson Plan and the congressional Plan. These plans, each with their own unique way of unifying the country and integrating newly freed blacks into American society, came with their pros and cons.
Even though the Proportional Representation system sounds like it could be a good thing for the United States, I think that the system we use now works best for our country. I think we should stick to what we have been doing for all these years. No system is ever going to be perfect but since we are familiar to how our system works, we should just keep it. I feel as though adding more parties would just be too much and get a little out of hand. With the Proportional Representation system I see the votes getting split up between too many parties, therefore there will not be one candidate that is over powering the rest.
The era of Reconstruction was supposed to be a positive turning point for the United States. The North and the Confederacy was fighting to see who was gone represented the South. After the North beat the South there were a lot of hopes of the nation moving forward together, The south didn’t agree with the plan and wasn’t corporative. These Documents shows the struggles and views for the North and South, American Horizons; Louis Hughes, "Thirty Years a Slave: From Bondage to Freedom," 1897: Letter to Colonization Society 1880: The Social Principle among a People, Reconstruction, 1875; and Equal Suffrage 1865. During, the Reconstruction era there was a failed attempt to bring the Nation together; there were some positive came from the Reconstruction and also some negative.
Users can be the main risk to an organization. A disgruntled employee can access the server and open it up to all types of security issues or install malware or virus’. User access to the server should be limited to users that need admin level and closely monitored. Admin accounts should never be used for day-to-day activities as this could lead to username/passwords being stolen more easily providing access to others from the outside. When an employee leaves their admin and general use accounts should be turned off immediately. If an employee is to be terminated with cause, theses accounts should be disabled prior to the termination discussion. Users risk are medium impact and highly controllable with policy and procedures.
The American Civil War of 1861 to 1865 led to many positive and negative changes, which were created during the Reconstruction era, to the United States of America. After the 4 year long, destructive Civil War, the Southern states (referred to as ex-Confederate) were left in despair — destroyed environment and economy. The Reconstruction was put into action by Abraham Lincoln in order to bring racial equality between the colored and white people of America, but this goal was never achieved; it was a failure for the American people, both socially and politically. The common white people of the South continue to oppress freedmen. Laws against the freemen liberties were passed by state governments. And the government, ultimately, could not do
Have you ever thought about the Reconstruction period, maybe all of the negatives or positives from it? Reconstruction had different periods such as Emancipation and Reconstruction, Presidential Reconstruction, Radical Reconstruction, and the Compromise of 1877. The era after the Civil War, 1865 – 1877 was called the Reconstruction period. “The Union victory in the Civil War in 1865 may have given some 4 million slaves their freedom, but the process of rebuilding the South during the Reconstruction period (1865-1877) introduced a new set of significant challenges”(History.com Staff). Though human equality was the main goal of the Reconstruction period in the South after the Civil War, it proved to be an attempted compromise that actually created more conflicts.

Prison reform is the policy in which conditions in prisons are improved. Prisons have been a part of our government since the Americas were first colonized. Conditions in the prisons were completely different than they are now. For instance, our current prison system calls for regulations and check ups on the facilities to make sure that they are habitable for prisoners. Many prisons are very costly to keep up and running.Even though, there are some privately owned prisons but many are funded by the U.S.’s taxpaying citizens.Additionally, prisons make it hard to come back to society. Once you have something on your record a lot of opportunities are thrown out the window.
1. User Domain- The User Domain defines the people in the organization that make up the network. Employees are responsible for the use of their assets. That responsibility is extended to the information that is classified as “internal use only”. This domain is affected in a few different ways. First, it forces the user to become aware of what they are sending through emails out to external addresses. Information that is classified as “internal use only” cannot be divulged in emails, texts, or over the phone. This is information that may or may not be classified that must not be seen beyond the confines of the company infrastructure.
Society holds expectations for its citizens, and non-citizens at a very high level. They expect everyone to abide by the law, and give back to the community. In a perfect world all citizens and non-citizens would be good Samaritans, sadly it is far from that in today’s society. Many individuals are deviant and stray from society’s expectations of them. We know them as criminals. Indeed some of them may be hardened criminals, yet some of them commit petty crimes that are still a burden on society. Whether, their crime is petty or severe, society expects them to pay for their actions. Most criminals at one time or another will spend time in prison or jail.
