1. Provide a high-level overview/ summary of the case study
2. Note how constructive intentionality impacts innovation implementations
3. Find another article that adds to the overall findings of the case and note how attribution-based perspective enhances successful innovation implementations.  Please be explicit and detailed in answering this question.

Be sure to use the UC Library for scholarly research. Google Scholar is also a great source for research.  Please be sure that journal articles are peer-reviewed and are published within the last five years.

The Role of Privacy in the Workplace

Things to take into consideration are outlined below:

 ·  What are the laws and regulations that impact privacy in the workplace?

 ·  Why would an employer want to monitor the activities of its employees?

 ·  What benefits / drawbacks are associated with monitoring employees?

 ·  What could an organization use to ensure that all employees are well aware of their rights and responsibilities with regard to privacy?

 ·  What type of monitoring systems are used in the workplace today?

For this assignment, submit a 5-6-page paper answering these questions as succinctly and completely as possible. 

Paper should conform to APA style. 

The page total does NOT include the title page or the reference page(s). 

Do not include an abstract of table of contents.

To enhance the security of information systems, enterprises are developing and adopting information system management systems. However, if an information management system is exploited, applications and the data they contain will be compromised. Therefore, it is important to perform a comprehensive security analysis throughout the enterprise.

In your own words explain (a) the purpose of an security analysis, and (b) using fig 2.2 (“Knowledge sets that feed a security analysis”) as a guide, in your own words briefly explain what each knowledge domain entails. Please state your answer in a 1-2 page paper in APA format.  Include citations and sources in APA style.

The chart you select to represent your data will be influenced by many factors. Kirk (2016) has put each chart into the five main families below:

• Categorical: Comparing categories and distributions of quantities values
• Hierarchical: Charting part-to-whole relationships and hierarchies
• Relational: Graphing relationships to explore correlations and connections
• Temporal: Showing trends and activities over time
• Spatial: Mapping spatial patterns through overlays and distortions

Select a chart type from the text and discuss what the chart is used for and why you selected it. (The author has included a lot of different chart types in our course book)

 I posted link to the questions and exercises in the below chapters of the book (INFORMATION SYSTEMS FOR BUSINESS AND BEYOND)

Discuss the differences as well as the advantages and disadvantages of IaaS, SaaS, and PaaS. Otherwise, you may include an implementation of each such as Salesforce or AWS with details on their services. 
You must post at least twice during the week on at least  two different days to get full credit. Your posts should add to the conversation with relevant information. Just agreeing with you classmates or similar responses will not receive any credit. 
I am not looking for long posts. Eight or so sentences for each post of  ORIGNAL writing will suffice. I do not want see paragraph after paragraph of copied material. Your post will be checked by SafAssign for similarity. 
If you use references they  MUST include in text citations where the information is used. If the information is a direct quote from a source it  MUST be in parentheses. Otherwise you are at risk of plagiarism. However, you do not have to use the APA Edition 6 format (template with fonts, heading, etc.) in the discussions.
Ignorance of APA Edition 6 citing and referencing is not acceptable in graduate level work. If you do not use it you may be accused of plagiarism. If you have not done so please familiarize yourself with it now. There are numerous sources under the “Start Here” tab.
Please DO NOT submit your posts as attachments in the discussion area. All writing need to be in the discussion area.
