The state and local police departments are trying to analyze crime rates so they can shift their patrols from decreasing-rate areas to areas where rates are increasing. The city and county have been geographically segmented into areas containing 5,200 residences. The police recognize that not all crimes and offenses are reported. People do not want to become involved, consider the offenses too small to report, are too embarrassed to make a police report, or do not take the time. Among other reasons. Every month, because of this, the police are contacting by phone a random sample of 1,040 of the 5,200 residences for data on crime. (Residents are guaranteed anonymity).

Statement of the ProblemKuala Lumpur Hospital, as we all know, is one of Malaysia's busiest hospitals. This is due to the fact that it admits a diverse range of patients suffering from a diverse range of disorders. These patients have arrived as a result of the health sector that operates in this facility. In other words, the departments within it are quite diverse. As a result, the hospital must deal with a high volume of both existing and new patients. Employees are required to gather patient personal information such as name, address, and so on for all of these admissions. It intends to capture and save their data for further use. Employee admissions, such as physicians and nurses, should also be recorded by the hospital. Furthermore, the hospital must manually record the many departments, rooms, and physicians in hospitals.

There are three sets of specific WebGoat labs this term: Module 4, Module 7, and Module 10. This is the second set. You will be doing, documenting, and reflecting on all the exercises under A5, A6, A8, A9, A10, and Client Side. The WebGoat assignments are research and understand assignments (aka "know it if it came up and bit you"), more than knowing precisely how to complete every exercise (although if you can complete the exercises do consider a penetration testing career path, recognizing that there aren't a lot of positions in that area). We are not expecting you to know how to do everything, but we would like to see what you tried, why did it work, and what did you learn from it. If you are stumped on an exercise, mark that as "for later" and come back to it. Instructions (Click to Explore) Keeping good notes. during your WebGoat adventure is very important. You may not know immediately if something you come across is important until much later. You may also make notes on how you…

A news clipping service is considering modernization. Rather than manually clipping and photocopying articles of interest and mailing them to its clients, employees electronically input stories from most widely circulated publications into a database. Each new issue is searched for key words, such as a client’s company name, competitors’ names, type of business, and the company’s products, services, and officers. When matches occur, affected clients are instantly notified via an online network. If the story is of interest, it is electronically transmitted, so the client often has the story and can prepare comments for follow-up interviews before the publication hits the street. The manual process has fixed costs of $400,000 per year and variable costs of $6.20 per clipping mailed. Theprice charged the client is $8.00 per clipping. The computerized process has fixed costs of $1,300,000 per year and variable costs of $2.25 per story electronically transmitted to the client.a. If the same…
