Cyber security Engineers

Could computer hackers get into the computer network security systems that run crucial elements of the world's infrastructure, such as the power grids, air services, water works or even a nation's military arsenal? Not really, if the system is properly configure and secure no hacker can enter that system. Hackers always look for holes or try making holes in the system and many time finding holes because of bad configuration and command mistakes...For example with the right configuration in a secure network a 3DES should take a great engineer hacker a long, long time to break the encryption code and even longer to break AES code.

I can recall the year, it was 2001 while working at JPMorganChase as an senior engineer I remember the morning very well because when I got to my office that Wednesday morning it turn out to be a mad place, heads of several different departments were on conference calls about intruders and viruses, that morning some users got infected, we were able to see and stop the four intruders and fix the problem, it only shows how dangerous intruders or hackers can be to a computer network system or systems.

Cyber security Engineers

As an engineer I don't think there are. It's great when agencies and groups come up with these really grand statements, that's what you're shooting for. You'd love to have 100 to a 1000 of the best engineers, but Cyber Command wants 100 of the best and Air force 10th Wing wants 100 of the best, to name a few (and Google, AT&T and IBM want 100 of the best engineers). At some point there's just not enough engineers left. But they continue to say when you work for government you're not really working for the money. People tend to do it for different reasons. You either do it because you're patriotic or you do it because you get to play with some really cool stuff that wouldn't ever be possible in the civilian world. And I think they're trying to address the third thing, which is pay.
“Hackers or intruders attack would be devastating to virtually every company computer networking systems nowadays, driving a huge need for experts who can analyze how vulnerable a system is to a security breach and create functions and programs to protect against it. Since new technologies (and hackers) are being developed all the time, government and other organizations demand for security consultants should continue to increase as well.” – CNN

The 60-day review released earlier this year concluded that the government is not prepared to respond adequately in the event of a cyber attack. Is it just a matter of having enough staff and having more trained staff?

It's the civilian governments defensive. It's like their IDS (intrusion detection system) and IPS ( prevention detection system). So there's a technology road map. If you go to a government system or leave a government system you would pass through this Einstein system and so the idea is once you have everything in these TIC's you can start to analyze flows and look for interesting patterns...We need more train engineers to protect our computer network security systems from attack.

Flexibility for intrusion detection systems (IDS) or intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to inspect the traffic. Even end-to-end SSL traffic can be secured in this way. For example, the outer DMZ context can decrypt the SSL and send it to the proxy. When the proxy sends HTTP down to the next context, IDS inspection can be applied to the clear text on one of the VLAN interface for security reason, then the traffic can be encrypted again toward the servers on the inner DMZ context.

For example, on the outer DMZ, context traffic could be limited to HTTP and SSL destined to the VIP address for the proxy. All other traffic is denied by default. Remember hackers uses HTTP as a transfer interface protocol over eighty percent of the time...A server name typically, a URL is converted to a socket address before the resource is accessed.

I worked on a project between Germany and Maryland using asymmetric and symmetric keys in the configuration and this project was one of many, but, the most complex and secure design government project with vast AES and other encryption protection.

How and why we raise funds

The services Mary Joseph Foundation provides to raise funds for individuals who have Alzheimer's disease and young hungry children here and around the world.

We can put as many of our network and security engineering professionals on you Businesses, Government and Universities sites to work on your Network, we can DESIGN, BUILD and INSTALL NETWORK VIRTUALIZATION and PATH ISOLATION, MAINTAIN, MONITOR, CONFIGURE and TROUBLSHOOT all your network problems such as QOS. TOS. HSSI. POS.TCP/IP. TCC. PAM. NAT. IPSEC. IKE. IPv4. IPv6. BGP. OSPF. RIP. EIGRP. VRF. MPLS. FHRP. NHRP. HSRP. STRICT SOURCE ROUTING. SECURITY. RECORD ROUTES. STREAM IDENTIFIER. SNMP. RMON. MARS. SNIFFERS. OPENVIEW. NETVIEW. NETCOOL. Configure and troubleshoot VOIP. VIRTUAL SENSORS and complex Vlans design. NNTP. DHCP. HTTPs. SSL. CSS. VPN. UNIX. LDAP. SECURITY BINDING. TACACS+. RADIUS. IDS. IPS. RSA. DES. 3DES. AES. ATD. PIX. DMZ. ASA. CHECKPOINT.

Every Network problem are very difference from each other and many are complex and complicated and there are million and many are difference in there own way. A real Network Engineer must have deep knowledge and many years of hand on experience working on complex and complicated problem from level one to level four and beyond and able to work under great pressure on their own especially on billion dollars complex Network systems.

Do not let any thieves or intruders steal your private information or money...Today some of the largest Banks in America and around the world lost hundred of million of dollars every year to Internet thieves and intruders, I know because I used to work for two of the world largest Banks.

Bad configuration of Network Security policies would always lead to stolen passwords, sensitive data and money. Thieves always attacks and exploits weak area in the network, they retrieved and modified data, capture manipulate and replay data. They enjoy vulnerabilities in the network security policies... Session replay, session hijacking, rerouting network packets, masquerading invalid ip address, packet snooping, eavesdropping and more.

We can set SECURITY POLICIES, AUDIT and MONITOR your computer network system for any type of trouble or problem such as TCP, UDP, ICMP OR any other attack on your Network system from the inside or outside, remember we can see them they cannot see us from your business site or remotely.

A Network should always have INTEGRITY. CONFIDENTIALITY and AUTHENTICATION...We use many techniques such as superb algorithm, adaptive threats detection, AAA, encryption, rmon, mars, asdm, sniffers, advance firewall and many more to keep each Network working right and stop the intruders from break into your Network.

Remember we are the REAL Network and Security engineering professionals with well over twenty five years REAL complicated complex hands on experience working for real Multinational corporation like CISCO. NORTEL. CITI BANK. JP MORGANCHASE. IBM.and the US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT configuring, troubleshooting, monitoring, installing and maintaining Cisco. Juniper. Nortel and Foundry Routers, Switches, firewalls and other IOS.

To all Government, Businesses, and Universities CIO's here in America and around the world, I hope that we at the Mary Joseph Foundation a non-profit organization will gets the chance to provide our professional services to your network now and in the future. All of our Network and security professional Engineers are expert in their fields, with many years of complex and complicated hand on experience in multinational corporations, Governments and Universities and very deep knowledge of the over all Network systems.

Over thirty percent of all funds raise from our Seminars. Training and Consulting work goes to helping individuals who have Alzheimer's disease and young children who are hungry here and many third worlds countries. We provide rooming, foods, vitamins, medicines and caring for individuals with Alzheimer's disease especially those who are living in homes for the insane and crazy, on the street and homeless, we also provide foods for young hungry children especially in the third world countries.

Sandra Day O'Connor makes plea for Alzheimer's FUNDING!

WASHINGTON... Speaking out for the first time about her husband's Alzheimer's disease, retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor told senators Wednesday that the disease takes a "staggering toll" on families and said, "our nation is certainly ready, and have to get deadly serious about this deadly disease."
As she referred to her "beloved husband," John, and how he is "not in very good shape," her voice cracked.

Who feel it knows it...Living with this disease has been sad and difficult for my entire family or any family," O'Connor wrote in the testimony she prepared for Wednesday's morning session. "The disease begins quietly, with memory difficulties that gradually become more serious and much more frightening with each passing year. Then, what follows is confusion ... impaired judgment ... trouble expressing even the simplest thoughts .... disorientation ... and socially inappropriate behavior." Yet Sandra Day O'Connor who was the first woman on the Supreme Court, clearly conveyed her main message to the Special Committee on Aging: that Alzheimer's disease research must be expanded to find a CURE, and it will take both public and private funding, I must say every dollar count.

Speaking from experiences In Sandra Day O'Connor's actual remarks to the committee, she did not read that text and instead highlighted the need for policymakers to focus on research of this deadly disease that currently has no cure.

Senate Special Committee Hearing on Alzheimer’s

Sandra Day O’Connor and Newt Gingrich testify

The Senate Special Committee on Aging held a hearing to examine the tremendous burden Alzheimer’s poses not only to the estimated some 8 million Americans with the disease and their 12 million caregivers, but also to the healthcare system.



Recently, researchers identified abnormal tau protein in the entorhinal cortex before dementia was even clinically detectable. For years now most researchers targeted a different symptom, the amyloid beta plaques that gum up the spaces between the brain's neurons, causing them to die. You can now see many famous people such as Charlton Heston 1924-2008,former President Ronald Reagan and more who die from Alzheimer's disease on our web site ( my forum )

We are asking everyone for their support let us fight this disease together, I watch my mother and two of my cousins slowly past away from Alzheimer's disease.

Long-term care for Alzheimer's

There may come a time when it is too difficult for you to care for your loved one at home. As the disease progresses, your job will become increasingly difficult — despite a variety of community services — to the point where long-term residential care may be the most responsible option.

Making the decision

As you come to terms with residential care, you may grapple with feelings of guilt that you're abandoning the person. You may assume incorrectly that people who wind up in nursing homes were discarded by their families. But the truth is just the opposite. Most families exhaust every other option before resorting to this type of arrangement, and, contrary to popular belief, most families do stay connected to the individual and visit often. You can also draw comfort in knowing that there are an increasing number of good programs that specialize in care and treatment of people with Alzheimer's disease.

Better understanding for Alzheimer's patient care

There has been a shift in the general philosophy of caring for people with dementia. In the past, the general consensus was that they should be continually oriented to reality. For instance, if a person talked about visiting a sister who had died, the caregiver would remind the person what year it was and that the relative wasn't alive. Experts recommended responses like "No, I'm not your daughter, I'm your nurse."


Experts now believe that these efforts are futile and only frustrate the individual. Today, the preferred approach is to validate the person's feelings. For instance, responses like "You must really love her" to a man who talks about his dead wife, rather than, "She died 8 years ago," fosters emotional well-being. Repeated validation may also curb some behavior problems associated with frustration.


Resurrecting the patients remove frustration


There is also more of an attempt to resurrect what's left of the person's "self." In high-quality programs, caregivers try to understand each person's past interests and plan activities accordingly. If, for example, a person loved to dance, he or she may still derive considerable enjoyment from music and dance activities at a center.


In one case involving someone who had been a newspaper reporter most of his life, his caregivers set up a makeshift newsroom with a typewriter and assigned him the task of writing a newsletter for the center. He was able to enjoy this until typing became too frustrating. Although his caregivers eventually removed the typewriter, they still reinforced the idea that he was working in a newsroom. In another case, a caregiver arranged for several former stamp collectors in the assisted-living facility to see a stamp exhibit that was in town. Despite their disease, the caregiver said they seemed to thoroughly enjoy the experience.


Real facts


Over half of all individuals living in nursing homes have Alzheimer's disease or another dementia.


Evaluating a home for Alzheimer's patient


Keep in mind that not all specialized Alzheimer's care is equal. When you visit a home, try to determine what makes it unique.For up to date information on the wide variety of options available and how to evaluate them because the Alzheimer's patient may live for as long as 4 to 8 years and during that time the patient will gets worse in a regressive state, contact the Mary Joseph Foundation.


Please remember these


When you visit a facility, ask plenty of questions, such as these:

  • How is the program geared specifically for people with Alzheimer's disease?

  • Are the caregivers trained in the treatment of Alzheimer's?

  • Is it a homelike environment?

  • Are residents engaged in meaningful activities?

  • Does the facility incorporates design features that can be helpful to those with Alzheimer's, such as enhanced lighting, color-coded hallways, and plenty of walking room?

  • Is the environment safe? How secure is it for people who wander?

  • How would an upset resident be handled?

  • How many people live there? What's the ratio of staff members to residents?

  • Can medical care be given on site if needed? Who provides it? Skilled nurses? Visiting physicians?

  • What personal items can the resident bring?

  • Are skilled professionals — including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants — on duty at all times?

  • How long and often may family members visit?

  • What's the cost? Does the facility requires you to pay privately?

  • If the patient needs to change to Medicaid funding after a few years, will he or she be able to remain at the facility?

  • Under what circumstances would a resident be required to leave?

Remember the average cost today of long-term care is between $39,860 a year for an assisted-living facility and $82,095 a year for a private room in a nursing home, you'll have to investigate payment options.

Remember we are here to help.

Some famous people who died from Alzheimer’s disease

In Alzheimer’s disease, memory for old events are preserved till the advanced stages of the disease. In the early stages, the ability to learn new things are impaired. Since the common man assumes that memory for old events are more important, some individuals who have Alzheimer's disease is not brought to the doctor in the early stages of the disease.

Even if a individual with changes in intellectual capability is taken to a doctor, general physicians with limited experience in treating Alzheimer’s disease will rarely make a specific diagnosis of this disease. Although awareness is increasing, many misconceptions prevail among medical practitioners.

Charlton Heston 1924-2008


Mary Joseph Foundation extends its deepest sympathies to the Heston family on the passing of Charlton Heston on Saturday, April 5. In 2002, Mr. Heston courageously announced to the public that he was suffering with symptoms consistent with Alzheimer’s disease.

Currently there are over 8 million Americans living with dementia/Alzheimer’s disease and that number is expected to grow to as many as 30 to 35 million by 2050. Alzheimer’s disease is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States and growing.

Researchers are close to developing accurate ways to diagnose and treat Alzheimer’s, but current Alzheimer's funding is nowhere near enough. Significantly increased federal funding for Alzheimer's research, education and care is imperative to reach the goal of a world without Alzheimer’s.

Estelle Getty Born: July 25, 1924 in New York City, New York Occupation: Actor: ... She played Sophia on Golden Girls from 1985 to 1992...We at the Mary Joseph Foundation are sorry to hear about Estelle Getty condition, for sometime now she had developed and been living with dementia and later coming down with Alzheimer's.

Brooke Astor (March 30, 1902 – August 13, 2007) was an American philanthropist and socialite who was the chairwoman of the Vincent Astor Foundation, in 2000 Brooke Astor was diagnosis by her doctor of having Alzheimer's disease...On August 13, 2007 she died from Alzheimer's.

Although there is no cure as yet for Alzheimer’s disease, a lot can be done to make the individuals with Alzheimer's disease more comfortable.

The loving letter to all Americans that make me cry.

Letter from President Ronald Reagan to the American people:
Nov. 5, 1994

My Fellow Americans,

I have recently been told that I am one of the millions of Americans who will be afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease.

Upon learning this news, Nancy and I had to decide whether as private citizens we would keep this a private matter or whether we would make this news known in a public way.

In the past, Nancy suffered from breast cancer and I had my cancer surgeries. We found through our open disclosures we were able to raise public awareness. We were happy that as a result, many more people underwent testing.

They were treated in early stages and able to return to normal, healthy lives. So, now we feel it is important to share it with you. In opening our hearts, we hope this might promote greater awareness of this condition. Perhaps it will encourage a clearer understanding of the individuals and families who are affected by it.

At the moment I feel just fine. I intend to live the remainder of the years God gives me on this earth doing the things I have always done. I will continue to share life’s journey with my beloved Nancy and my family. I plan to enjoy the great outdoors and stay in touch with my friends and supporters.

Unfortunately, as Alzheimer’s disease progresses, the family often bears a heavy burden. I only wish there was some way I could spare Nancy from this painful experience. When the time comes I am confident that with your help she will face it with faith and courage.

In closing, let me thank you, the American people, for giving me the great honour of allowing me to serve as your President. When the Lord calls me home, whenever that may be, I will leave with the greatest love for this country of ours and eternal optimism for its future.

I now begin the journey that will lead me into the sunset of my life. I know that for America there will always be a bright dawn ahead.

Thank you, my friends. May God always bless you.

Sincerely,

Ronald Reagan

I will always LOVE you.


Ronald Reagan "My fellow Americans, I have recently been told that I am one of the millions of Americans who will be afflicted with Alzheimer's disease."

When President Ronald announced that a decade ago, it shook us. Sure, everyone dies; and not all of us leave behind the legacy of winning the Cold War. But a disease that slowly robs you of your mental faculties is a nasty way to go.

Alzheimer's was the eight-leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2001 An estimated 5 million Americans and between 13 to 16 million people worldwide already suffer from the disease, and as populations age it's predicted that by 2020 more than 61 million people worldwide will be afflicted with this painful and deadly disease. Today in America there are more than 8 million people and growing who suffer from dementia/Alzheimer's. The Mary Joseph Foundation is working hard with several research organizations to see if we can find a CURE...In the mean time we will continue to take care of individuals who have dementia/Alzheimer's.
