Midwest Health Systems

Case Analysis Assignment

In this case, the context is Midwest Health Systems (Midwest) and the scenario is evaluating a enterpise information security architecture. Your analysis of this case will be framed around a number of questions that are presented at the end of this writeup. As laid out in our syllabus, your analysis should, at minimum, meet the “2-why” standard.

While you can find a number of strategies out there for conquering case analyses (many of them are very good), I recommend the approach of reading the case at least once without consideration of the questions. That opens the mind up to absorbing details that might otherwise erroneously get dismissed in a “know the questions, hunt for the answers” type of approach. After that, lay our your outline with each question framing a new major section. Then, re-read the case analysis and as you go through, build the outline of your answer with references to page numbers so you can quickly go back. Once the outline is built, you should have a clean connection between your point and some evidence from the case. At that point, it is a matter of polishing the communication without inadvertently changing the thesis.

The case can be found in your Harvard Coursepack, referenced in the Materials section of our syllabus. The case analysis must be submitted through Blackboard in Microsoft Word or .pdf format before 11:59pm Sunday, March 28th.

Case Analysis Questions:

1. Identify the IT general control risks evident from the case. For each risk identified, identifiy possible controls to mitigate those risks and explain why you believe the control would work.

2. Define residual risk and then identify at least three such risks from the case, mapping those examples conceptually to your definition of residual risk.

3. Do you agree with the audit team’s conclusion that the only significant areas of concern in IT general controls are access security and change management? Please explain your answer at a “2-why” minimum standard.

4. What course(s) of action do you recommend that Nelson take based on your analysis of identified risks and suggested controls?

Exp22 Excel Ch04 Cumulative – Insurance Claims 1.2

Excel Chapter 4 Cumulative – Insurance Claims 

Project Description:

You have been hired as a business analyst at SKV Insurance claims department. As part of your responsibilities, you have been asked to enhance the Excel workbook used to analyze the department’s performance. The workbook contains records of all claims resolved over the past year. You will convert the data to a table, format the table, sort and filter the table, insert calculations to evaluate key performance indicators, and then prepare the worksheet for printing.

Start Excel. Download and open   the file named EXP22_Excel_Ch04_Cumulative_Insurance.xlsx.   Grader has automatically added your last name to the beginning of the   filename.

Freeze the panes so the first   row containing column headings (Row 6) and first two columns (Columns A:B) on   the InsuranceClaims worksheet will remain static when scrolling.

Convert the data to a table,   name the table InsuranceClaims, and then apply the Light Green, Table Style Light   21.

Remove duplicate records.

Add a new column to the table   named Duration.

Create a formula using   unqualified structured references to calculate the days required to resolve   the incident (Date Resolved – Date Created) and apply General Number Format.

Add a total row to display the   Average days required to complete a claim.

Sort the table by insurance   agent in alphabetic order, add a second level to sort by description, and   then create a custom sort order as follows: Natural Disaster, Flood, Fire, Theft, Accident. Add a third level to sort by duration smallest to largest.

Filter the table to only display   closed claims as indicated in the status column.

Use Quick Analysis to apply Blue   Data Bars conditional formatting to the column that contains duration. (On a   Mac use Conditional Formatting.)

Create a conditional format that   applies Red fill and White Background 1 font color to the incidents (column   B) that required 30 or more days to resolve.

Select Landscape orientation and   set appropriate margins so that the data will print on one page. Set the   print scale to 70%.

Change page breaks so each   agent’s information prints on its own page.

Set row 6 to repeat on each page   that is printed.

Save and close EXP22_Excel_CH04_Cumulative_Insurance.xlsx.   Exit Excel.

Modify the algorithm from the previous exercise so that it makes use of a rear reference. How does this affect the time complexity of this and the other operations?

Ex 4.5

Module addNodeAtEndUsingRear(int val, node *head, node *rear)

Write a detailed paper on the history of computers and science how they are related? and how did they change the world?
