See for yourself, when she treats you to a one- hour family photo shoot for up to 6 people. The resulting outdoor natural light portrait will be an enduring classic. Donor: Joanna Price Photography Value: $200 Q2 Your Child’s Name as a Work of Art We may think of our children as our precious masterpieces, but fine artist (and Kindergartner Pippa’s grandmother) Jean Fogle expresses this belief literally, turning your child’s name into a hand-painted, framed watercolor. See the “Je M’Appelle” section of jeanfogle.com for details. You won’t fail to be inspired by her decorative Pigments of the Imagination. Donor: Jean Fogle, Fine Art Pigments of the Imagination Value: $250 Q3 Smile for Senora Dosch Enjoy a mini-photo session with former Tower Spanish teacher Victoria Dosch in a location of your choice. Item includes all editing costs and images to keep on a CD, and perhaps some Spanish language expressions such as mirar al pajarito and di/decid patata. See victoriadosch.com for more details. Donor: Victoria Dosch Photography Value: $150 8 Auction Booklet 2013 print.indd 8 3/15/13 1:09 PM Q4 Hollywood-Worthy Home Movies How many of us have chaos in our home movie/DVD drawers, or digital files?

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE COLLEGE OF INFORMATION SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY DATA FUSION OF SECURITY LOGS TO MEASURE CRITICAL SECURITY CONTROLS TO INCREASE SITUATION AWARENESS MATTHEW KENNEDY SPRING 2018 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Security and Risk Analysis with honors in Security and Risk Analysis Reviewed and approved* by the following: Nicklaus A. Giacobe Assistant Teaching Professor of Information Sciences and Technology Director, Undergraduate Programs Thesis Advisor Dinghao Wu Associate Professor Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. ii ABSTRACT In Jan. 2018, a NIST draft to the Cybersecurity Framework called for the development of cybersecurity metrics, saying such work would be a “major advancement and contribution to the cybersecurity community (National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2017b).” Unfortunately, organizations and researchers continue to make little progress at measuring security. Along with this, research around measuring security fails to present detailed guides on how to implement security metrics collection and reporting in an organization. This research seeks to explore how measuring the CIS (formally SANS) Critical Security Controls, through data fusion of security logs, has the potential to increase situation awareness to strategic decision makers, and systems administrators. Metrics are built for each of the sub controls for Critical Security Control 8: Malware Defenses. Along with the development of these metrics, a proof of concept is implemented in a computer network designed to mimic a small business that is using Symantec Endpoint Protection and Splunk. A Splunk dashboard is created to monitor, in real time, the status of Critical Security Control 8.1 and 8.2.

  • The Invisible Journalist: Understanding the Role of the Documentary Filmmaker As Portrayed in the Office
    The Invisible Journalist: Understanding the Role of the Documentary Filmmaker as Portrayed in The Office Massiel Bobadilla JOUR575 –Joe Saltzman Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture May 5, 2011 Bobadilla 2 ABSTRACT: This study aims to shed light on the enigmatic ‘mockumentary’ filmmaker of The Office by using specific examples from the show’s first six seasons to understand how the filmmaker is impacted by and impacts concepts of journalism and the invasion of privacy. Similarly, the filmmaker in the American version of The Office will not only be compared and contrasted to the role of the filmmaker in the British version, but also will be compared to the anthropologic ethnographer an “outsider” attempting to capture life as faithfully as possible in a community to which he/she does not belong. The American interpretation of The Office branched out of Ricky Gervais’s British original of the same name with the pilot episode hitting the airwaves on NBC on March 24, 2005,1 to largely mixed reviews from critics, but a strong showing among viewers.2 The show’s basic premise is that of a faux documentary providing an inside look at the day-to-day life of the employees of a mid-level paper company. The primary focus centers on the socially inept branch manager, his even more inept right-hand-man, and the budding romance of the young and earnest paper salesman and the mild-mannered receptionist who happens to be inconveniently engaged to one of the branch’s warehouse workers. What was the Slough branch of Wernham Hogg in the U.K.
