A window blind company owner never knew how exactly how much material he needed for any single project. He would estimate the amount and put that figure into Excel. When he estimated too much, it cost him money for materials he didn’t use. When he estimated too little, it delayed the project’s completion because he had to get more material from his supplier. Plus, he used Excel as if it was just a paper chart.

Solution: Worksheet Creation

· Use Excel to create a worksheet for each order as part of a workbook for orders to his suppliers. 

· After all the individual orders are entered in the workbook as worksheets, the new Excel workbook calculates how much material was needed for was needed for the entire group of orders. 

· The worksheet should demonstrate savings for the company in time and money because the owner could order the right amount of material from his suppliers and allocate it correctly to the customers’ jobs.

Give an example of a case where you would assign higher cost to False Negative (FN) then False Positive (FP)

(it has to be an example other than the ones I mention in the presentation or video)

 As you meeting with a client, What are the top 3 points/topics that qualify as an assessor to perform a professional information security assessment? explain with examples  

 Threat Modeling

A new medium-sized health care facility just opened and you are hired as the CIO. The CEO is somewhat technical and has tasked you with creating a threat model. The CEO needs to decide from 3 selected models but needs your recommendation. Review this week’s readings, conduct your own research, then choose a model to recommend with proper justifications. Items to include (at a minimum) are:

• User authentication and credentials with third-party applications
• 3 common security risks with ratings: low, medium or high
• Justification of your threat model (why it was chosen over the other two: compare and contrast)

You will research several threat models as it applies to the health care industry, summarize three models and choose one as a recommendation to the CEO in a summary with a model using UML Diagrams (” Do not copy and paste images from the Internet, I need 100% original work, no plagiarism is encouraged or tolerated” ). In your research paper, be sure to discuss the security risks and assign a label of low, medium or high risks and the CEO will make the determination to accept the risks or mitigate them.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately 2 to 3 pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)
• Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. 
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.
