Scenario:

You have recently been hired as a Chief Information Governance Officer (CIGO) at a large company (You may choose your industry). This is a newly created position and department within the organization that was founded on the need to coordinate all areas of the business and to provide governance of the information. You will need to hire for all positions within your new department.

The company has been in business for more than 50 years and in this time has collected vast amounts of data. Much of this data has been stored in hard copy format in filing cabinets at an offsite location but in recent times, collected business data is in electronic format stored in file shares. Customer data is being stored in a relational database, but the lack of administration has caused data integrity issues such as duplication. There are currently no policies in place to address the handling of data, business or customer. The company also desires to leverage the marketing power of social media, but has no knowledge of the types of policies or legal issues they would need to consider. You will also need to propose relevant metrics that should be collected to ensure that the information governance program is effective.

The CEO and Board of Directors have tasked you to develop a proposal (paper) that will give them the knowledge needed to make informed decisions on an enterprise-wide Information Governance program, addressing (at a minimum) all of these issues, for the company. 

Requirements:

The paper should include at a minimum of the following sections:

a. Title page

b. Executive Summary (Abstract)

c. Body

i. Introduction (including industry discussion – 1-2 pages)

ii. Annotated Bibliography (2-3 pages)

iii. Literature review (2-3 pages)

iv. Program and technology recommendations, including:

1. Metrics

2. Data that matters to the executives in that industry, the roles for those executives, and some methods for getting this data into their hands.

3. Regulatory, security, and privacy compliance expectations for your company

4. Email and social media strategy

d. Conclusion

e. References

2. You must include at least two figures or tables. These must be of your own creation. Do not copy from other sources.

vii) Cyber Security and Medical Technology

 In this week’s reading, the concept of 3-F Method is introduced.  Discuss the purpose of this concept and how it is calculated.  Also perform your own research/analysis using these factors and provide your assessment on whether the United States need to introduce top talents in the field of big data and cloud computing by using bibliometrics. 

I have a timed packet tracer assignment that I would like to complete after 10pm this evening.  I will not know the details until I open the assignment and then clock starts.  My guess is that it will be building a small network with 7 or less devices and will involve some subnetting and will require to ping a device.  I will need somebody that can be on the phone with me for 40 minutes to help me.  I can copy and email the assignment once it is opened.  

You are requested to discuss a project proposal in the domain of Networking. You will start by defining the aim of the project clearly, propose a time plan for one semester duration, and develop the arguments behind the aim.

Support your discussion with at least two scholarly references.

You are required to reply to at least two peer discussion question post answers to this weekly discussion question and/or your instructor’s response to your posting. These post replies need to be substantial and constructive in nature. They should add to the content of the post and evaluate/analyze that post answer. Normal course dialogue doesn’t fulfill these two peer replies but is expected throughout the course. Answering all course questions is also required.

Internet of Things

In 300 words

Do you feel the benefits of cloud computing are worth the threats and vulnerabilities? Have we arrived at a point where we can trust external agencies to secure our most precious data? Please explain your answer.

Include references, no copy-paste strictly.

1. Discuss the importance of mutual exclusion and synchronization in the case of process cooperation. What problems could arise if the system lacks these two features?  How could semaphores help? 

2.Compare threads and processes and discuss their similarities and differences.  

Use the template for the assignment. I will send more files and example code from class that will make the assignment easier. The assignment uses python 3 and jupyter notebooks as the IDE. There are a bunch of class notes and code examples

Bid Response Proposal

The objective is to present a Bid Response Proposal that provides a security solution for any business process of your choice. The financial business has 60 employees and is struggling with security issues both internal and external. Employees use laptops and have remote access to the office systems.

3) No policies (AUP)

4) No virus protection and experiencing viruses daily

5) No intrusion detection and experiencing intrusions daily 

6) Passwords compromised

8) Sensitive information is being copied from systems

9) If a disaster should happen to the building there are no plans to recover

Minimum topics to be included in your Bid Response Proposal are the following:

1. Deliver      a Bid Response Proposal to provide a business security solution to      prevent malicious or unauthorized use of digital assets
2. Create      and implement effective policies to mitigate risks
