System Administration and Security Assurance

Assignment 1

Introduction

Due date: 11:59pm Thursday 15th September (week 9)

Weight: 20%

Length: 2500 words

Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) assessed:

2. Identify security issues using relevant tools

4. Assess and document system and network security issues for use by people at all levels of the

business

This assignment builds on the skills and knowledge you acquire in this unit by a having you investigate and

write about a real-world issue or an in-depth examination of a theoretical concept.

Specification

This assignment is an individual assignment on a topic of your own choosing within the area of server

administration or system or network security.

You will be writing from the perspective of a security professional for other security professionals (or a

system administrator for other system administrators), and you will need to find and read multiple papers,

articles, and/or reports to be able to properly understand your topic.

Your topic will need to be approved by the unit coordinator by the end of week 5 (12th of August, 2022) to

ensure that all students have chosen an appropriate topic, and to ensure that there is a diversity of topics

across the class. If you leave your topic proposal until the last minute, it may already have been proposed

by someone else, and could be rejected. Students who do not negotiate a topic by the deadline risk a 10%

penalty mark.

Topics will be approved on a first come, first served basis, and you should not consider that your topic is

approved until you are so notified. If you choose a topic early on in semester, and receive a confirmation

that it is approved for you, you can complete the assignment as early as you like.

To propose your topic, send it in an email that includes your student ID to the unit coordinator

The topic can be:

based around a news event that is relevant to server administration or system or network security,

or

about a principle or concept that relates to server administration or system or network security,

without a specific news focus

If your topic is news-event inspired, then the event must have occurred within the last two years (that is,

the original event itself must not have occurred before January 2020).

News-inspired assignments are not intended to be solely a narrative of the events, but rather a discussion

of the events that took place, an examination of the security issue that may be relevant, and the

implications of the event, tied back to relevant peer-reviewed literature.

The assignment is to be 2500 words in length (plus or minus 10%, not including references), and must be

submitted in Word document format to MyLO.

Other points to note:

Your assignment should be clearly formatted and must use in-text citations and references when

referring to content that is not your own.

Assignments must have multiple references, and strong assignments must make use of multiple

academic-standard (peer-reviewed) sources.

o You must use citations and referencing when making statements that are not otherwise

common knowledge in the field.

o All citations must be included in the reference section.

o Do not list references that are not cited.

o References must include the author and the publisher. Be careful when attributing online

sources. For example, “Facebook” is not an author nor is it a publisher.

o All referenced source material must be in English.

Overly broad topics (e.g., “5G security”, “Security in the healthcare profession” or “best practices

for system administration”) will not be approved.

Do not use online paraphrasing or online rewriting services to change original content to disguise

the source and/or remove the need to cite sources.

Do not include an executive summary in your assignment.

You may include diagrams, figures, tables, charts or similar elements where they are relevant to the

discussion. You must attribute sources for such elements using a citation placed adjacent to or

under the element, just like any other citation.

You may not choose a topic that you have already written about for KIT501, nor self-plagiarise nor

self-reference.

Citations and Referencing

This is a research assignment, and as such you are expected to read a range and diversity of content on

your topic, and based on your reading, your thoughts, and understanding in the area, condense/summarise

the topic in your essay. This means putting content into your own words and citing where it has come

from.

You are expected to use a range of different sources, including academic sources.

What is an academic source?

Most academic sources will likely be formally peer-reviewed articles that have been published in

journals or conferences, although other sources are permitted (such as books, and government

and/or standards bodies documents). Magazines, web sites, blog posts and news articles are not

considered to be academic sources – you may still include them as sources, but your marks will be

improved when academic sources are also included (please see the marking rubric).

What do I have to cite?

All source material (anything you have read and obtained from elsewhere) must be cited and then be

listed in a references section at the end of the assignment. Correctly citing and referencing the

content you have used makes up a significant part of your final mark. You must use citations and

referencing when making statements that are not otherwise common knowledge - you provide

citations to justify all claims or statements you have made in your essay:

'A citation is a reference to the source of information used in your research. Any time you directly

quote, paraphrase or summarize the essential elements of someone else's idea in your work, an

in-text citation should follow. An in-text citation is a brief notation within the text of your paper

or presentation which refers the reader to a fuller notation, or end-of-paper citation, that

provides all necessary details about that source of information.' (Suny Empire 2021).

In other words, any borrowed ideas (which includes direct quotes such as that above), must be

acknowledged through the form of an in-text citation in the body of your essay (Victoria University

2015).

What referencing style do I have to use?

You are required to use the Harvard referencing style, which in simplest terms, is the Author/Year

style. More information can be found by following the links below:

Plagiarism and Academic Integrity

Plagiarism is a very serious matter, and ignorance of this is not an excuse. If you submit work, claiming it to

be your own, and it is not original work of your own, this is cheating. This includes (but is not limited to)

trying to obscure the source of your work (such as blocks of text submitted as images), using language

translation services to source text from one language and convert to another, or paying individuals or

companies to do the work for you. Plagiarism can result in academic penalties both in relation to your

assignment, and on your permanent university record.

If the work you submit is that of another person, without appropriate attribution (such as citation and

references), then an academic misconduct case may be filed against you with the possible penalties

mentioned above.

Note: We will be using Turnitin as a plagiarism detection tool.

Submission

The assignment is due on or before the 15th of September by 11:59 pm. It must be submitted to an

assignment folder that has been established in the unit’s Assessment’s section on MyLO.

Your submission must be in Word document format

Do not submit in PDF format, and do not ZIP your file before submission.

DO NOT include an electronic cover sheet with your assignment.

How is your essay marked?

Your essay will be marked against the rubric that can be found on the next page. Please pay close attention

to the weighting % of each criterion and how each grade (HD, DN etc) is assigned. Also note, for example,

the Referencing criteria does not mean you will automatically get full marks (25%) if you have 10 or more

sources, including 6 academic sources – the mark is assessed on how well you use the sources (e.g. are they

relevant), the referencing style, as well as the source quality (for example, are too many of the references

from the one web site, or the one company, or the one news report, and are they just blog sites etc).

References (example)

The two references below are an example of two web sites that were directly cited in the content above

with in-text citations.

Your references section should also be sorted in alphabetic order, by author family name. Please see the

Harvard referencing style linked-to above to determine how to refer to other types of sources such as

journal articles and conference proceedings.

Note that the first reference listed below (Suny Empire 2021) is not about Harvard referencing style, it was

included as some text was directly quoted in the body of this assignment specification.
