Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) provide a secure data flow between two endpoints. There are not only different types of VPNs, but there are also different Internet security standards for implementing security in these different VPN types. In this assignment, you will classify the three different types of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). You will compare the features of the IPsec and SLL/TLS Internet security standards. You will then evaluate these two Internet security standards for implementing security in the three different types of VPNs. Instructions Write a 3 - 5 page paper in which you: Classify the three different types of Private Networks (VPNs). Distinguish the characteristics of each type in terms of configuration (e.g., host-to-host), transmission technology (e.g., multiplexing), and ease of implementation. Compare the two different Internet security standards of IPsec and SLL/TLS in terms of features they provide for security, strengths, and weaknesses. Evaluate the IPsec and SLL/TLS standards for implementing security in the three different types of VPNs. Your evaluation for each VPN type should include the VPN type, your proposed Internet standard for implementing security in this type of VPN, and the rationale behind your evaluation. Reflect on your learning experience in this assignment, the lessons you learned, and how this experience would apply to your personal or professional life. This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all support. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is: Evaluate Internet security standards for implementing secure Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a collection of key security standards. As such, IPsec offers several protection mechanisms and several modes of operation. Analyze the IPsec two protection mechanisms of Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH) in terms of protection, authentication, and confidentiality. Differentiate the ESP two operation modes of Transport and Tunnel modes and explain which mode provides more protection and why. Respond in 200-250 words
The Governmental Role in Healthcare Expand your understanding of how important watershed moments have pushed healthcare systems to where they are today (watershed: an event marking a unique or important historical change of course or one on which important developments depend). Refer to the full discussion details in the weekly content folder and the rubric to complete this assignment. Include the following aspects in the discussion: Complete readings and videos. How do you think the founding fathers viewed healthcare? Has this view changed among the majority in the US and do you agree? Why or why not? List five pivotal impacts that changed the direction of healthcare over the centuries. Discuss if you think we can improve healthcare for all without socialized medicine. Cite any references. Proper grammar, sentence structure, and spelling are required. Use your own words. Copying and pasting are not allowed.
Instructions Address a course-related topic, such as: operating system security issue such as hardening malware removal establishing proper policies and permissions protection against network threats, etc. Prepare a 8-10 page double-spaced (not including title or reference pages) research paper based on the topics above or similar topic in the text or something covered in this class. Paper organization will include: Introduction Clearly define the problem, issue, or desired topic that was researched. Starts out broad and becomes more and more specific. Body Present the relevant literature and ideas. Identify relations, contradictions, gaps, and inconsistencies in the literature. Possible solutions to any problem(s) identified. Conclusion References (at least ten). Instructions: An in-depth submission that is free of spelling and grammar errors in APA format. Double-spaced format (APA) with a readable style and font and submitted inside the electronic classroom (unless classroom access is not possible and other arrangements have been approved by the professor). 12-point font, Times New Roman styles. Page margins Top, Bottom, Left Side and Right Side = 1 inch, with reasonable accommodation being made for special situations and online submission variances Important: Good academic writing requires writers to cite the sources of all facts in text. If you state that the sky is blue, then you must cite who said it. A good rule of thumb is one citation per paragraph; paragraphs 3-5 sentences (This is how to avoid unintentional plagiarism). Papers are always written in third person past tense as you are writing about events in the past from the point of view of an observer. The student or writer proposed; One must observe.
PURPOSE: To analyze a problem and possibly provide a solution AUDIENCE: Classmates, others interested in the field LENGTH: 750-900 words (Times New Roman font). Please do not go significantly (~10%) under or above the word count requirement. This word count includes only the paragraphs in your final (not the Works Cited/References page or previously submitted sections). SOURCES: 5 (five) sources from the APUS Library (These may include sources you used in previous assignments. Going under this number will cost points in grading.)
Week 4 DiscussionAfter completing the reading this week, we reflect on a few key concepts this week: Discuss what ethical leadership is and how it impacts the organizational culture.

Create a discussion thread (with your name) and answer the following question: Discussion (Chapter 4): What are the privacy issues with data mining? Do you think they are substantiated? Note: The first post should be made by Tuesday 11:59 p.m., EST. I am looking for active engagement in the discussion. Please engage early and often. There must be at least one APA formatted reference (and APA in-text citation) to support the thoughts in the post. Do not use direct quotes, rather rephrase the author's words and continue to use in-text citations.
This week’s journal articles focus on transformational leadership and knowledge and knowledge sharing within an organization, please review these concepts and answer the following questions: How do trustworthy and ethical leaders enhance knowledge sharing in organizations? How does this impact the rate of information technology implementations? How does this impact data management within organizations? How does servant leadership assist with transferring knowledge in an organization? When thinking about data analytics, how does transformational leadership assist with building good data structures? Be sure to use the UC Library for scholarly research. Google Scholar is also a great source for research. Please be sure that journal articles are peer-reviewed and are published within the last five years.The paper should meet the following requirements: 4-5 pages in length (not including title page or references) APA guidelines must be followed. The paper must include a cover page, an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion. A minimum of five peer-reviewed journal articles. The writing should be clear and concise.
