Write a code as stated on a document

According to the authors, privacy and security go hand in hand; and hence, privacy cannot be protected without implementing proper security controls and technologies. Today, organizations must make not only reasonable efforts to offer protection of privacy of data, but also must go much further as privacy breaches are damaging to its customers, reputation, and potentially could put the company out of business.  As we continue learning from our various professional areas of practice, its no doubt that breaches have become an increasing concern to many businesses and their future operations.

Week 3: Discussion

The United States vs. Carey, 1998

Prologue 

Carey had been under investigation for possible sale and possession of cocaine and his residence as the center of operation. Six (6) months after the last purchase, the law enforcement officers obtained a warrant to arrest him. During the arrest, officers observed in plain view, a device for smoking marijuana in his residence and labeled the unit as marijuana in defendant’s apartment.

Plan of Action

Alerted by these items discovered in Mr. Carey’s apartment, the law enforcement officers asked Mr. Carey to consent to a search of his apartment. In clean and clear language, the law enforcement officers informed him of the intention to obtain a search warrant to search his apartment if Mr. Carey refused permission. After considerable discussion with the officers, Mr. Carey verbally consented to the search and later signed a formal written consent at the Officer’s station.

The search warrant was all-inclusive; thereby, authorized officers to search the filesystems on the computers for names, telephone numbers, ledger receipts, addresses, and vital documentary evidence about the sale and distribution of controlled substances.

Discoveries

1:1. Armed with the consent, the officers returned to Mr. Carey’s apartment the same night and discovered quantities of cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogenic mushrooms; took two computers believed to demonstrate evidence of drug dealing.

1:2. During the examination of Mr. Carey’s computer, investigators found files with sexually suggestive titles and the label “.jpg” that contained child pornography. 

1:3. In the process, investigators temporarily abandoned the search for evidence about the sale and distribution of controlled substances and focused on child pornography files, and Mr. Carey was charged with one count of child pornography.

 Court Proceeding

• In the appeal, Mr. Carey challenged child pornography count as inadmissible and unacceptable because the computer was taken as the result of a general, warrantless search out of his apartment
• Law enforcement officers contention was the warrant authorized them to search any filesystem on the computer that might contain data and information germane to drug crimes, cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogenic mushrooms, and asserted that child pornography came into plain view during the search. 
• The court concluded that the investigators exceeded the scope of the warrant and reversed Mr. Carey’s conviction.
• The Law enforcement officers adopted “Plain view doctrine” that must have not been extended to embrace wide-ranging search warranties from one item to another until something incriminating emerges.

Precautious

1. Digital forensic investigators must be extremely cautious and avoid breaching the fundamental principle of digital forensic investigation.
2. Digital forensic investigators inadvertently abandoned the search warrant and overstepped the authorized limit of the search warrant.  
3. Investigators engrossed in child pornography files. Notably, Mr. Carey was charged with one count of child pornography.
4. Tactlessly, Digital forensic investigators failed to obtain a new search warrant before conducting extra search on Mr. Carey’s child pornography operation.

Answer All Questions: (1:1 – 1:3)

Question 1:1. Provide a comprehensive plan of action on Mr. Carey’s count germane to drug crimes, cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogenic mushrooms.

Question 1:2. Provide a comprehensive narrative and concluding evidence on Mr. Carey’s use of the computer to compiled names, telephone numbers, ledger receipts, addresses, and vital documentary evidence on the sale and distribution of controlled substances.

Question 1:3. Describe the immediate danger of Mr. Carey’s modus operandi germane to drug crimes, cocaine, marijuana, hallucinogenic mushrooms, and child pornography in a developing rural community?

 Select what you consider to be a functional food from your own pantry, fridge, or freezer, or the kitchen of a friend. To which major food group does it belong? Describe its history and distinctive health benefits, citing at least two sources. 

Before you begin: review the information provided in this resource: https://www.pic.gov/sites/default/files/RACI%20Chart%20Overview%20v2.pdf

It takes a team of individuals throughout an organization who work together to safeguard the integrity and confidentiality of data resources. But, how does an organization know that it has enough people in the right roles performing the right tasks to ensure that digital assets will be protected from loss or harm?

The RACI matrix is a tool that can be used to outline the various roles and responsibilities required to provide this protection. For this discussion, you will prepare a RACI matrix that outlines roles of key players in the organization who have data protection responsibilities (i.e. asset security and data protection). Your matrix should specifically address executives (C-level), managers, supervisors, employees. The tasks that you should address are: generating information, using information, classifying information, and managing / using / implementing data loss prevention technologies.

After you have completed your chart, write a brief discussion of responsibilities for each role listed in the rows of your chart. Each role should be addressed in a separate paragraph.

Combine your matrix and your narrative descriptions into a briefing paper for a working group that has been charged with reviewing and improving the company’s data classification business processes. Post your paper in the body of your reply to this topic.

Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting. Use a consistent and professional style for your citations and reference list entries. (Hanging indent is NOT required.)
