PART 1
Select a current research problem related to the topic you chose in week 1 (Network and Computer Security in Organizations). When working with scholarly sources, you will often find research ideas in sections labeled “future work.”
Write a problem statement paper, in which you address the items below.
What is the problem that should be addressed with additional research (i.e. what is going wrong?)? Support the existence of the problem with at least three recent references.
What is the impact of the problem? That is, how are the victims (field of study, researchers, practitioners, industry, civilians, etc.) negatively affected by the problem, when is the problem evident, and where does the issue exist or become obvious? Provide an example of the problem in action or as experienced by those affected by it. Support the impact of the problem with at least three recent references.
Why does the problem exist? Discuss the conceptual basis, the nature of the problem, and outline of the problem as defined by the literature. Support underlying cause of the problem with at least three recent peer-reviewed references.
Length: 2 – 3 pages (not including title and references pages)
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
PART 2
The Program Director of a Cybersecurity program at Cross Road University believes that all first year students of the program should have extensive knowledge in asset assessment and management because a Cyber Security professional needs to know the assets in their organization before they can develop the appropriate mitigation strategies. The Program Director requested that you develop a presentation addressing the major components of asset assessment and management. Your presentation should include the following:
Introduction – Asset assessment and Risk management (1 slide)
The reasons for assets assessment in risk management (2 slides)
Outline the components of an assets management policy (3 slides)
Outline the steps needed in implementing an asset management program (2 slides)
Different software that is used in assets management (1 slide)
Institutional challenges of assets management (4 slides)
Strategic Challenges
Institutional Challenges
Measurement Challenges
Integration Challenges
Analytic Challenges
Steps to resolve institutional changes in asset management (2 slides)
Summary and Conclusion (1 slide)
Question and Answer slide (1 slide)
Thank you slide (1 slide)
Listed below are some tips for your slide presentation.
Begin your presentation with a title slide that includes your name. (Do not include the NCU coversheet for your PowerPoint presentation.)
Use plenty of white space on the slides.
Provide a few appropriate graphics to break up the text.
Use six bullets per slide or less.
Use Times New Roman, 28 or 32-point font.
Use the speaker’s notes area to include the information you want to share with your audience. The speaker’s notes must be coordinated with the information on the slides. Be sure to provide citations for your sources. Speaker’s Notes Length: 100-150 words for each slide
Be creative. You can add audio to the presentation if you choose to do so; however, it is not required.
Include references on your final slide(s).
Length: 18-20 slides, not including the title slide and the references slide.
Your presentation should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect professional business writing and current APA standards.
