Case Number 16-0134 ©2016 The MITRE Corporation. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Winter 2016 Course Schedule Course Descriptions TCO1040005: Cloud Security: Threats, Requirements, and Architectures Course Description: This course introduces the security challenges unique to cloud-based deployment of information systems. The approach starts with a description of security threats to cloud computing. Cloud computing is subject to both unique threats and adaptations of existing threats. After examining threats, existing government security requirements are considered. Many of these requirements were developed prior to the use of cloud computing and must be interpreted for application to a cloud environment. Lastly, the course examines architectural approaches to satisfying security requirements. In addition to new ways to build information systems, cloud computing offers new security capabilities. Course Objectives: *Understand the security threats associated with cloud computing. *Understand and apply existing government security requirements to cloud-based system deployment *Understand the security implications of the NIST-defined cloud service models and cloud deployment models *Understand cloud security best practices for security architectures that effectively address threats and satisfy the intent of government security requirements Format: This one-day course introduces the security challenges unique to cloud-based deployment of information systems, beginning with a description of security threats to cloud computing. Prerequisites: Cloud Architecture, Infrastructure, and Platforms Target Audience: Systems engineers and systems security engineers building a cloud-based information system. Length: 1 Day (7 Hours) Schedule: 2016-03-11 to 2016-03-11 Application Deadline: 2016-02-26 Instructor(s): Faatz,Don B., Spina,Mari J Approved for Public Release; Distribution Unlimited. Case Number 16-0134 ©2016 The MITRE Corporation. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Winter 2016 Course Schedule TCO4660005: Data Analysis with Spark Course Description: This course is an introduction to the use of Apache Spark and its associated libraries for large-scale data processing. Spark employs an advanced DAG execution engine and in-memory computing to deliver performance which considerably exceeds that of Hadoop's legacy MapReduce engine. Spark libraries address stream processing, SQL querying, machine learning, and graph processing in Big Data environments. The course will introduce students to the core concepts behind Spark's performance improvements, and use of Spark's programming model/APIs. Hands-on exercises will familiarize students with using Spark to perform large-scale data analysis tasks. Course Objectives: *Become familiar with how Spark's execution engine and programming paradigm differs from legacy MapReduce *Develop a working knowledge of the Spark modes of operation, interface, APIs, and libraries. *Gain hands-on experience with applying Apache Spark to perform data analysis tasks Format: The course will introduce students to the core concepts behind Spark's performance improvements, and use of Spark's programming model/APIs. Hands-on exercises will familiarize students with using Spark to perform large-scale data analysis tasks. Prerequisites: Working knowledge of the Linux command line interface. Working knowledge of the MapReduce programming paradigm. Working knowledge of Java, Python, or Scala programming languages. Target Audience: This course is appropriate for technical staff involved with architecting and deploying big data analysis solutions. It is a part of the Big Data for Analytics Learning Path. Length: 1 Day (7 Hours) Schedule: 2016-05-24 to 2016-05-24 Application Deadline: 2016-05-10 Instructor(s): Kraunelis,Joshua J. Approved for Public Release; Distribution Unlimited. Case Number 16-0134 ©2016 The MITRE Corporation. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Winter 2016 Course Schedule TCO4770002: Cloud Security Architectures, Operations, and Authorization Course Description: MITRE's federal government sponsors are moving towards adoption of cloud architectures to improve security, modernize their infrastructure, perform large scale analytics, and potentially lower costs. Security is a major concern, and this uncertainty can slow progress. This two day course will discuss the ways that security can be built into various cloud architectures, how to operate clouds securely with shared responsibility between the sponsor and the Cloud Service Provider, and how to achieve authorization for deployment. Specific case studies and exercises from actual MITRE cloud projects will be included. This course is a sequel to the MITRE Institute course, TCO104 Cloud Security Threats, Architectures, and Requirements. Course Objectives: * Understanding of market and technology factors driving cloud adoption and affecting cloud security. * Appreciation for cloud security challenges impacting cloud migration * Working knowledge of secure cloud architectures * Practical understanding of best practice cloud security operations * Effective techniques for applying RMF/FedRAMP, and for obtaining Authorization. * Discover the use of Big Data, Splunk, and AWS tools for securing the cloud Format: This 2-day sequel to TCO104 Cloud Security: Threats, Requirements, and Architectures will discuss the ways that security can be built into various cloud architectures, how to operate clouds securely with shared responsibility between the sponsor and the Cloud Service Provider, and how to achieve authorization for deployment using case studies and exercises from actual MITRE cloud projects. Prerequisites: TCO104 Cloud Security Threats, Architectures, and Requirements Target Audience: Engineering and Management Staff working cloud migration projects.

  • Google Earth in the Classroom
    Google Earth in the Classroom Created by WestEd for Google Get the tool: http://earth.google.com What is it? Google Earth is a free, downloadable application that works as a browser for all sorts of information on Earth. It uses satellite imagery to grab, spin, pan, tilt and zoom down to any place on Earth. Students can explore every corner of the globe, measure distances, create their own virtual tours, and share their tours with others. You can also create and download layers of information and view them in geographic context. Why use it? Students can use Google Earth to: • study natural and political maps • learn map reading and navigation • visually explore historical, news, and census data • annotate locations and share with others • create their own 3D models to overlay on maps • download geographically-referenced information created by others Instructional Ideas Expert Tip Elementary. Have students explore verified locations where meteors have hit the Earth (http://www.gearthblog.com/ To help you know what is kmfiles/impacts.kmz), then create a chart of the number of possible with Google Earth, craters per continent. download and explore lots of Middle School. Have students explore the 19 annotated virtual tours (KML and KMZ placemarks mentioned in Jules Verne’s “Around the files) before creating your World in 80 Days” (http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/download. php?Number=156427).

How does Google Earth Display Maps? • Using sets of information called LAYERS http://www.townofbernalillo.org/img/gislayers.jpg Earth view with NO LAYERS selected. (This is a bare map) Earth view with ‘Borders and Labels’ LAYER selected. (This is a map with one layer) In Google Earth, LAYERS are sets of information that you can stack onto your map. Google Earth Basics This is a map of the northern Gulf of Mexico without any layers. Selecting LAYERS by clicking the boxes can let you see sets of information at the same time. They ‘stack’ on top of each other like a set of transparencies. Select the ‘Places’ ‘Roads’ and ‘Weather’ LAYERS and you can read a current weather map using major roads for reference. BUT BE CAREFUL!....... Too many layers = TOO MUCH INFORMATION If too many map layers are turned on, it can make the map unreadable! Be sure to turn on only the layers that you need! Google Earth Basics Turn layers off by clicking the checked boxes. To remove all layers, click the ‘Primary Database’ box. To turn off “Tour Guide” across the bottom of you map, click on the double down arrow just to the left of the title.
