All Instructions Are In The Attachment Lab2i Will Be Expecting Thr

All instructions are in the attachment. "Lab#2" I will be expecting three (3) documents. One for the replies, one for the initial Post and one for the Lab initial Post Question: This session's conference is dedicated to discussion related to the second homework assignment. As you select a "prohibited" site to use for your homework exercise, please post a topic to this conference identifying the site you have chosen and share any aspects the web site or its technical characteristics that will contribute to the way you will identify it in your rule. Due by Sat Nov 2nd.

Paper For Above instruction

The purpose of this assignment is to analyze a "prohibited" website as part of your homework exercise on network security rules. For this task, you are required to select a website that is considered prohibited within your network environment or according to specified guidelines. This could include sites involved in illegal activities, sites with malicious content, or any site that violates network policies. Once you have identified the site, you should prepare a detailed discussion post that includes the following elements:

1. Identification of the Site: Clearly specify the URL or nature of the prohibited site you have chosen.

2. Technical Characteristics: Describe the technical aspects of the site—such as domain features, hosting details, server information, or encryption methods—that are relevant for network filtering and rule creation.

3. Rationale for Identification: Explain how these technical features will assist in creating rules to block or monitor access to this site within a network security context.

This discussion should be posted by Saturday, November 2nd. Your initial post should demonstrate an understanding of how technical characteristics influence the ability to identify and control prohibited sites. Additionally, you are expected to prepare two more documents: one for your replies to peers' posts and another for the original homework post assigned in the course. These submissions should be submitted as per the course instructions, demonstrating your engagement and understanding of network security principles related to site blocking and filtering.

In your post, incorporate relevant network security concepts, such as DNS filtering, IP blocking, SSL inspection, and URL filtering techniques, to explain how technical features of websites can be leveraged for security enforcement. Use credible sources to support your analysis and cite them appropriately in your discussion.

Your participation in this discussion contributes to a comprehensive understanding of practical application of network security policies and rules, especially in relation to identifying and managing access to prohibited sites.
