The predecessor activity is the CNM Cyber for Action.
CNM Cabin Essentials
- Main wikipage: CNM Cabin Essentials
- CNM Cabin. The user management system of CNM Cyber that is delivered to its end-users as a service.
- User management system. Any system for the administration of system-user roles and user data, as well as tracking and reporting user datas to the authorized administrators and the end-user whose actions have produced that data.
- User dashboard. The feature that provides the end-user with a user interface (UI) that displays user data and those features that are available to the end-user of a particular system or system of systems.
- User account. In systems engineering, a system document that authorizes a particular end-user to access and use this system. From the user perspective, a user account is the means by which this user can access the system.
- Username (login name, account name, handle, or, rarely, ID). The humanly-readable name of user account that the end-user utilizes to access that account. A username is an essential part of user data.
- Password (passcode). Any string of characters that is used to confirm user's identity. The NIST Digital Identity Guidelines defines a password as "the secret is memorized by a party called the claimant while the party verifying the identity of the claimant is called the verifier. When the claimant successfully demonstrates knowledge of the password to the verifier through an established authentication protocol, the verifier is able to infer the claimant's identity.
- System-user role. The set of capacities often called permissions that a system grants to any user who belongs to a particular role.
- NetAnyone. The system-user role for an end-user of the World Wide Web whom CNM Cyber hasn't identified yet.
- CertStudent. The system-user role that CNM Cyber grants upon completion of the CNM Cyber Welcome Course Preview.
- CertUser. The system-user role that CNM Cyber grants to any graduate from the CNM Cyber Orientation.
- CertFellow. The system-user role that CNM Cyber grants to any graduate from CNM Cyber Placement.
- Authentication. The process of verifying one's identity. That process is commonly paired with identification, which is the process of indicating one's identity. For instance, the process of issuing one's passport is an act of identification, while the process of verification of one's passport at a checkpoint is an act of authentication is the process of verifying that identity. When a system user provides the system with his or her username, the system requests its database whether that user is identified in this system and, if so, with what password, and authenticate that user based on whether the password matches the one in the database.
- Single sign-on (SSO). The mode of authentication that allows a user to log in with a single username and password to any of several related, yet independent, software systems, and go through any of those systems without additional logging in.
- User data. Any data that the end-user of a particular system creates or owns.
- User alias. An assumed or additional name that is assigned by the system or user, for instance, to use when the username is inappropriate to use. A user alias that the user assigns to him- or herself for convenience of other users is often called a screen name.
- Identity and access management (IAM). Practice and a set of concepts based on that practice of granting each user of some system a right system-user role.
- Federated role. The system-user role that is assigned to a user in several related, yet independent, software systems by default. A particular system may or may not override the federated role within that system and re-assign its local system-user role to that particular user. That re-assignment can happen only within one system and cannot affect any other system unless the federal role has been changed.
CNM Lab Essentials
- Main wikipage: CNM Lab Essentials
- CNM Lab. The combination of project management, version control, and file-sharing systems of CNM Cyber that is delivered to its end-users as a service.
- Source code. According to the Linux Information Project, "the version of software as it is originally written (i.e., typed into a computer) by a human in plain text (i.e., human readable alphanumeric characters)." This code commonly include comments and is specially designed to facilitate the work of computer programmers, who specify the actions to be performed by a computer to indicate their intentions.
- Web document. A document that defines another document to target software applications. Web documents are widely used in the Internet. For instance, web browsers use web documents to display webpages to their end-users. Search engine robots use web documents to collect data about those webpages. Those contemporary email clients that are mobile apps use web documents to display emails without web browsers. To those end-user applications that are used to view documents of various formats, web documents may represent documents in the PDF format, graphic elements of image files, etc.
- DevOps. An engineering practice and a set of concepts based on that practice that aim at unifying new product development (the Dev part) and operations (the Ops part). The primary feature of DevOps is to strongly advocate automation and monitoring at all steps of the project such as integration, testing, releasing to deployment, and infrastructure management. DevOps aims at shorter development cycles, increased deployment frequency, more dependable releases, in close alignment with business objectives. Functions of DevOps office staffers can be compared with those of project management office (PMO) in a traditional project management framework.
- Project management system. Any system for project management. Usually, the System is built using project management software, which tends to be a combination of end-user applications specifically designed to aid with planning and controlling project costs and schedules.
- Version control system. The system that is set for version control. The system controls versions or revisions of documents, source codes, files, groups of files, collections of data, and/or other resources.
- File-sharing system. Any software system that enables its users to upload, store, and download files on the Internet.
- Software application. Any digital construct that is installed, instantiated and executed on a computing device, specifically for the purpose of assisting in the capture, creation, manipulation, tracking, management, and reporting of specified data.
- Software repository. A storage location from which software packages may be retrieved and installed on a computer.
- Cyber-security. The practice and a set of concepts based on that practice that are designed to protect computers, data, and networks from potential attacks or unauthorized access.
- Encryption. A method of encoding data so that it is unreadable to parties without a method of decryption.
- SSL certificate. The system document that (a) is issued by a certificate authority (CA), (b) is based on the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, and (c) installed on a web server to allow for a secure connection between this web server and any web browser. Contemporary SSL certificates also support the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol.
