Data Classification and Data Loss Prevention

 

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.)

The Meat Lady Dilemma

 Mrs Parker owns and operates a meat shop that processes and packages parcels of minced meat that is being sold to schools in the US. Her scales are all calibrated to perform measurement in pounds, however when the parcels are packaged, they need to be labelled in ounces. Mrs Parker has established that 1 pound is equivalent to 16 ounces. In each production cycle, 250 packs of meat are processed and the weight in pounds varies for each package. Mrs Parker is also interested in knowing the total costs, the total revenue and the total profit of each production run, given that the costs to produce and package an ounce of meat is US $0.25 and that the selling price of an ounce of meat is US $0.55. Because you are a budding Software Engineer, she has sought your assistance in creating a software solution that can be used within the business establishment. 

Required: A. Specifically identify the type of control structure which is needed to process the meat in each production run and provide a reason for your choice (4 marks) 

B. Your solution needs to represent the meat packages which are to be processed, how would you represent this appropriately in your program and what has guided your choice?  (4 marks) 

C. Construct a C# program that will solve Mrs Parker’s dilemma by making use of the choices made above. 

i. Implementation of the control structure to process the meat (2 marks) 

ii. Implementation of the meat packages to be processed (2 marks) 

iii. Calculation of costs, revenues, and profits (6 marks) 

iv. Appropriate program outputs displayed to the user

Discussion board

It has been said that the advantage that leading-edge retailers such as Target and Walmart have over their competition isn’t technology; it’s their management. 

Do you agree? Why or why not?

Include a reference to at least one online article to back up your argument. Additionally, please respond to at least one other student’s post.

the post i want to to respond to is “I think that this statement may have been very true in the past, and it may still be true for well-established companies like Walmart because they are not concerned with becoming leading-edge, as they have already been there for many years. However, I think that for many businesses, especially small and/or new businesses, technology is exceptionally important to get a leg up. For example, this summer, I worked for PayPal, and one of the internship programs I participated in was to partner with a Kiva (small) company to propose solutions to one of their business problems. Most of the Kiva companies PayPal partnered with, including the one I worked directly with, really struggled, especially now during COVID-19, with staying afloat, let alone thriving, in the shift to online shopping that is even more strong in the recent months than it was before. For companies like these, finding better ways to showcase their products, communicate with customers, and simply get their website to show up on search engine results are very important tasks to tackle in the present. Perhaps as companies grow in their success, the relative importance of management and technology may reach closer to an equal balance.
