Discussions and Portfolio Project: ITS-833: Information Governance

Discussion1: Information Governance for E-Mail

Word count: 300

We learned that e-mail is a major area of focus for information governance (IG) efforts, and has become the most common business software application and the backbone of business communications today.  In addition, the authors provided details to support their position by providing 2013 survey results from 2,400 corporate e-mail users from a global perspective.  The results indicated that two-thirds of the respondents stated that e-mail was their favorite form of business communication which surpassed not only social media but also telephone and in-person contact. 

With this detail in mind, briefly state why the e-Mail has become a critical component for IG implementation? Support with references.

Remember to cite your sources and critically respond to two other learners.* Share an applicable personal experience
* Provide an outside source that applies to the topic, along with additional information about the topic or the source (please cite properly in APA)
*  At least one scholarly source should be used in the discussion. Be sure to use information from your readings. Use proper citations and references in your post.

Project:


1.
Portfolio Project: Milestone 1: Introduction – COMPLETED: https://www.homeworkmarket.com/questions/discussion-and-portfolio-project-its-833-information-governance

2. Portfolio Project: Milestone 2: Annotated Bibliography & Literature Review

Word count: 4 pages (Annotated Bibliography- 2 pages, Literature Review- 2 pages)

This is the second milestone of the portfolio project.

For milestone 2, you will develop an annotated bibliography and write the literature review for the final project. The entire milestone should be a minimum of 4 pages (excluding title and reference page) with 10 peer-reviewed scholarly articles.   

You must include at least one figure or table. These must be of your own creation. Do not copy from other sources.

Expectations are that it will be a scholarly work, using largely peer-reviewed resources, formatted to APA 7 style. Grammar, spelling, and punctuation are significantly weighted.  

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 customers. 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.

Project Description:

As a student at the university, you have an entrepreneurial spirit and have dreamed of starting your own business. You have noticed that the coin laundry in your dorm is always full and crowded. You saw an opportunity to start a business that picks up laundry at the dorms, launders the clothes, folds the clothes, and returns the laundry in a single day. The first step to starting this business is to create a proposal for the university to approve the service to have some operations within the dorms. You started by conducting a survey of your fellow students. The next step is to process the survey results and create a proposal for the university.

  Check the spelling to correct all spelling errors. LaundryU is the name of the business and is spelled correctly.

 

Styles help you format even if   you are not very good with design.
 

  Set the style for the first three lines in the document to Heading 1.
  On the sixth line down change the salutation of Dear Director, to a style of Heading 2. Change the line that   reads We did a survey of 100 students   in the dorm and found: style to be Heading 2.

 

A name should look like a   signature.
 

  On the next to last line, change the font of Matthew Thomas to Lucida Handwriting.

 

Open the downloaded LaundryUSurvey.xlsx file. On the Q1   worksheet, in cell E2, enter a function that calculates how many students   answered yes to the survey using the data in cell B2:B101.

  Display LaundryUSurvey.xlsx. On the   Q2 worksheet using the data in cells B2:B40, calculate the following:
  In cell F2 calculate the average price students were willing to pay.

Create a Java application that allows

  

Netbeans Program Only): Create a Java application that allows the user to repeatedly enter a number to find out if it is a perfect number. A perfect number is ***** that is equal to the sum of all of its positive divisors, excluding itself.
For example, 6 is a perfect number because 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.
28 is a perfect number because 14 + 7 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 28.
The program should: 1) prompt the user for a positive number. 2) print out if the number is ***** perfect number or not. 3) then ask if the user would like to enter another number or quit. ///Submit your .java file here when you have completed the assignment. Late assignments will not be accepted without an approved excuse.
*Hint: your program will contain a do-while loop for input while the user says yes, a for loop to loop through the divisors to determine if a number is ***** and a user validation while loop to make sure input is a positive number.
