Although there are many different reasons what a person may decide to commit a computer intrusion, the basic methods and processes used are fairly common.  Discuss the common intrusion processes. 

Part 1: Security Threats

• Provide an example of at least one security threat.  This can be an  actual threat to an organization.  It can be an example of a “what-if”  scenario.  Discuss at least one way that this threat could have been  minimized or prevented. 

Phishing is one example of a security threat to pretty much anyone.  Phishing is where a message, usually an email or text, is sent to you  and it may look like a legitimate company/bank reaching out to you.  These messages usually include a link, and these links can have malware  embedded in them. They may also be asking for personal information.   (Borges, 2021)

To minimize/prevent this threat include changing passwords regularly,  not clicking on suspicious links, and installing firewalls. (Simister,  2021)

Part 2: Mobile devices

• Compare desktops to laptops, tablets, and smartphones using best  practices related to security. Discuss the best practices that you use  or plan to implement on your mobile device(s).

Desktops tend to be more secure compared to mobile devices (tablets,  smartphones, laptops, etc.) because of their stationary position making  them easier to guard, and also because they tend to be on one source of  the internet (rather it be Wi-Fi or cable). (Editor, 2019)

The practices I use to protect the security of my mobile devices is  to keep software updated, I keep fingerprint/code locks on my phone, and  try to avoid any unsecured networks.

This week, we looked at the components of a literature review funnel.  

For this assignment you will develop a literature review funnel for your research topic.  

See included example. 

Resources: 

The following websites provide some guidance on compliance and governance planning:

• IT Governance

Example plans:

• Governance Framework
• University-Wide IT Governance Framework

Remember, these are examples. You are not producing a lengthy plan. Use these resources as guidance in developing your project plan. 

Instructions. 

1. You will complete this paper in the form of a compliance and governance plan for an organization. You may use your own organization (although you must change the name for confidentiality purposes) or use a fictitious company. You may use the internet to look for examples of privacy policies and compliance and governance plans; however, the plan you develop must be in your own words. The plan must cover the issues and concerns that need to be addressed by the plan, including the following:
   1. Privacy issues of customers
   2. Protection of intellectual property your organization possesses (assume the company has some copyrighted or patented material [e.g., software] or some product)
   3. Cyberlaws that will apply to your organization
2. The paper should be outlined as follows:
   1. Executive summary/introduction: Include the issues and concerns to be addressed by the plan. Provide four to five paragraphs introducing the plan, including the rationales for developing a compliance plan and the goals of doing so.
   2. Sections: Include sections that address each of the concerns noted above. See the bulleted points on topics the plan should cover. Provide a paragraph at the beginning of each section. Include any additional sections you believe necessary to develop a comprehensive plan.
   3. Conclusion: Provide a four- or five-paragraph conclusion to the plan. A bulleted list of recommendations would help to summarize the plan. Include suggestions for implementing the plan.
3. The paper should be about 15  pages in length (double-spaced), and transitions between sections should be addressed.
4. Any graphics or tables do not count toward the page count.

write 3 pages on Cloud based data warehousing.

This assignment allows students to look at a problem from a managerial perspective, and see how a technical solution supports the business needs of the organization.

You are the IT manager at XYZ Company, and you notice that the business is lacking efficiency. Reports are being completed manually, information is not well transferred throughout the departments, the business is having trouble keeping up with its order volume, and customer satisfaction is faltering as a result.

Outline how your solution would address the common issues of identity management associated with ERP implementation, specifically single authentication, automatic trust, and managing full access rights. Then, using Figure 8.4 from the textbook, construct a formal business case for an ERP system. Analyze the effectiveness and efficiency gained with departmental cooperation. Then, present an effective case to efficiently input, transfer, communicate, and display company data.

This assignment requires the use of at least two additional scholarly research sources published within the last 5 years. Include at least one in-text citation from each cited source.

APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

You are required to submit this assignment to LopesWrite. Refer to the LopesWrite Technical Support articles for assistance.

Building a Business 

CaseIn order to meet demand, the IT organization is often charged with providing solutions. Business managers often turn to IT for good solutions, but IT projects end up competing with those of other managers in tight economic times when there clearly aren’t enough budget resources to cover them all. After all, there is often no shortage of other business investments such as new production machinery for higher product quality and lower costs or funding for product research and development on product innovations. Thus, managers need to show that the solution they want would be not only a good IT investment but also a good business investment. To gain support and a “goahead” decision, every manager must often create a business case. Similar to a legal case, a business case is a structured document that lays out all the relevant information needed to make a go/nogo decision. The business case for an IT project is also a way to establish priorities for investing in different projects, an opportunity to identify how IT and the business can deliver new benets, gain commitment from business managers, and create a basis for monitoring the investment.6 The components of a business case vary from corporation to corporation, depending on the priorities and decision-making environment. However, there are several primary elements of any business case (see Figure8.4). Critical to the business case is the identification of both costs and benets, both in financial and non-financial terms. In building, it is particularly important for the business case to describe the benets to be gained with the acceptance of the project the case is selling. Ward, Daniel, and Peppard7suggested a framework for identifying and describing both financial and non-financial benets (Figure8.5). The first step in this framework is to identify each benefit as innovation (allowing the organization to do new things), improvement (allowing the organization to do……

You have been hired as the new Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for PostCyberSolutions (PCS) LLC to overhaul the cyber security program. In addition to local PCS information systems, the CISO is responsible for ensuring the various program managers maintain security compliance for customer systems under PCS security cognizance. PCS holds several government contracts in various regulatory environments making CISO a challenging position.

One of your first actions to improve the security program is to create a working group between the Information Technology, Engineering, and Security departments to foster better communication, address information system security challenges, and to work off action items. During this week’s working group meeting, an informative debate breaks out regarding the three core principles of information security and which one is most important: confidentiality, integrity, or availability. The working group debate stemmed from discussions regarding security protections for PCS’s new contract to overhaul the early warning missile detection system for the Ministry of Defense in Istanbogus.

Rank each of the three security principles in the order of importance for this system. Explain your rationale for each ranking to include any factors, criteria, and assumptions you made in selecting the order of precedence. Include at least one research reference and associated in-text citation using APA standards. In your replies to your peers discuss their ranking/rationale.

 You will review both quantitative and qualitative research. The topic is up to you as long as you choose a peer-reviewed, academic research piece. I suggest choosing a topic that is at least in the same family as your expected dissertation topic so that you can start viewing what is out there. There are no hard word counts or page requirements as long as you cover the basic guidelines. You must submit original work, however, and a paper that returns as a large percentage of copy/paste to other sources will not be accepted. (Safe Assign will be used to track/monitor your submission for plagiarism. Submissions with a Safe Assign match of more than 25% will not be accepted.)Please use APA formatting and include the following information:

• Introduction/Background: Provide context for the research article. What led the author(s) to write the piece? What key concepts were explored? Were there weaknesses in prior research that led the author to the current hypothesis or research question?
• Methodology: Describe how the data was gathered and analyzed. What research questions or hypotheses were the researcher trying to explore? What statistical analysis was used?
• Study Findings and Results: What were the major findings from the study? Were there any limitations?
• Conclusions: Evaluate the article in terms of significance, research methods, readability and the implications of the results. Does the piece lead into further study? Are there different methods you would have chosen based on what you read? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the article in terms of statistical analysis and application? (This is where a large part of the rubric is covered.)

  For this task you will create a number of classes that provide information about the personnel in an organisation. You will write a Manager class and a Worker class, each of which will subclass a Person class. A Person will have a name, just a String, and an identity number, which is an integer. As no-one is just a person, the constructor of the Person class will only be used by constructors of derived classes. The name will be provided when an instance of a derived class is created. The identity should be automatically generated during construction and must be unique. No person, either manager or worker, can have the same identity number as another person. You should also ensure that the identity numbers of managers and workers cover separate ranges of integers (e.g. 1 – 99 for managers and 100 – 999 for workers), so that an identity number can be used, in the human organisation but not in your program, to discern whether a person is a manager or a worker.

There is a relationship between managers and workers that needs to be incorporated in the

corresponding classes. Each manager is the leader of a team of workers. In particular, a manager leads

exactly one team and a worker belongs to exactly one team. The system must allow for workers to be

moved from one team to another, managers to be moved from leadership of one team to leadership of

another, as well as for the appointment and retirement of personnel. For the current assignment task a

simplifying assumption will be that we do not need a class to represent a team’s work area. Instead the

manager-worker relationships will be incorporated by each Manager object maintaining a list of

Worker references, representing the team, and each Worker object maintaining a Manager reference,

representing the team leader.

The following state and functionality should be provided for these classes:

• The Person class will maintain name and      identity fields, as described above, and the derived

Manager and Worker classes will add the fields necessary to implement their

interrelationships.

• Appropriate constructors will allow the name      and identity fields of Manager and Worker

objects to be initialised properly. Note that, although the identity field will be inherited,

its initialisation depends on the particular derived class. Full initialisation of the fields

implementing manager-worker interrelationships would not be done at this stage, but they

must be in an appropriate state for testing.

• Getters for fields will be provided in      appropriate classes.
• Appropriate toString methods will be      provided as required to simplify the display of object

state. Where an object’s state contains a reference to a person, include that person’s identity

number in the string.

• For setting up, changing, or nullifying the      field values implementing manager-worker

interrelationships you need to make changes in the state of both a Manager object and a

Worker object. There are different ways to do this. For example, for moving a worker

between teams, one way is to provide the Worker class with a movetoTeamOf instance

method that accepts a Manager reference. The code of this method could first make some

checks (e.g. are either of the current and new Manager references null or are they the same?)

before removing the current worker from the team of the current manager, changing the

worker’s manager and then moving the worker to the new manager’s team. Note that this

would access instance methods of Manager for removing a worker from a team and for

adding a worker to a team. A similar approach applies for setting up a new worker and for

removing a worker from the system; the changes must be done so as to ensure the

information system remains in a stable state, which cannot be left as a responsibility of client

code.

• Changing team managers is another operation on      manager-worker interrelationships that

needs to be done, and with care. It might be implemented via a switchTeams instance method

of the Manager class that accepts the reference of another manager, but you need to make

sure that this switches all the Manager references held by the respective teams. You also

need to implement functionality for removing a manager from the system, which will only

occur if a newly created manager is available as a replacement, and adding an additional

manager, whose team could then be populated by client code applying some combination of

creating new workers and moving workers using functionality described above.

Write a TestPersonnel class to test the functionality of the classes you have developed. It will be done

without user interaction and will provide the following sequence of actions, using good design techniques such as in the appropriate use of methods:

• Create a single list for the people in the      organisation, which is a list containing Person

references for managers and workers.

• Provide code to create some managers (3 will      do) and some workers (12 will do) and add

them to the list. Assign the workers in turn to the different managers.

• Display the state of all the people in the      organisation.
• Add 3 new workers to the organisation,      assigning them in turn to the different managers.
• Display the state of all the people in the      organisation.
• Remove from the organisation the first 2      workers in the list of people.
• Display the state of all the people in the      organisation.
• Add a new manager to the organisation,      reassigning the first worker in the list of people to

this new manager.

• Display the state of all the people in the      organisation.
