Assignment Content

  1. Your father has a private retail pharmacy in a small rural town. He accepts credit cards and holds customer information on a small database server. He wants to know if he should be concerned about PCI compliance, as well as HIPAA, and has asked you for a summary so he can decide if he wants to hire an outside consultant to help him comply with government regulations.

    Write a 3- to 4-page summary in Microsoft® Word of the important aspect of PCI and HIPAA regulations to help him make his decision. In your summary:

    • Accurately describe what PCI is and why it is important to a small business.
    • Explain why a small business needs to comply with PCI. Provide at least two reasons.
    • Outline the ramifications of noncompliance to a small business. Provide two examples.
    • Concisely describe who is covered under HIPAA.
    • List the information protected under HIPAA.
    • List the administrative requirements under HIPAA.
    • Cite all sources using APA guidelines. 

      Submit your assignment.

Safe Harbor Provisions

Write an essay of at least 500 words discussing the Safe Harbor provisions under HIPAA.  

Do not copy without providing proper attribution. This paper will be evaluated through SafeAssign. 

Write in essay format not in outline, bulleted, numbered or other list format.  

Use the five paragraph format. Each paragraph must have at least five sentences. Include 3 quotes with quotation marks and cited in-line and in a list of references. Include an interesting meaninful title.

Include at least one quote from each of 3 different articles. Use the Research Databases available from the Danforth Library, not Google.   Place the words you copied (do not alter or paraphrase the words) in quotation marks and cite in-line (as all work copied from another should be handled). The quotes should be full sentences (no more, less) and should be incorporated in your discussion (they do not replace your discussion) to illustrate or emphasize your ideas.

Cite your sources in a clickable reference list at the end. Do not copy without providing proper attribution (quotation marks and in-line citations).

C programming – Basic

Develop a C (or C++) program that reads an unsigned number in some base and outputs the

equivalent value in BCD.

Your program must require a single command line argument, the name of an input file. This

input file will consist of any number of lines, each falling into one of three varieties:

1. Comment – These lines always start with an asterisk (‘*’) and should be completely

ignored.

2. Blank line – Used to visually organize the input file and should be completely ignored.

3. Data line – These are the ones your program will process and are described below.

Data lines will all have exactly two items separated by a single space character:

1. an input base (2 through 16) and

2. an input value in that base whose decimal equivalent will never be more than 6 digits

For each Data line from the input file, you must output:

1. the line number of the input file this data line is on (starting the file with line 1… same as

a text editor would show)

2. a colon followed by a space

3. the BCD equivalent of the input value , four bits at a time with one space between each

set of bits. Remember the decimal values will not exceed 6 digits, so the BCD value will

never exceed 24 bits, not including whitespace between 4-bit sets. NEVER print any

leading bit sets that contain only zeros…

a. eg, instead of 0000 0101 0000 1000, you would print 0101 0000 1000

b. only exception is if the value itself is zero, as in the example below

Example input file Expected output to console

* a first example

2 011000

8 70

7 0

11 3A

* This is long

10 123456

5: 0000

6: 0100 0011

9: 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110

10-1 Discussion: Going Forward

 

The networking and telecommunication industry comprises devices, systems, and technologies that make communication over a distance possible. The initial years of traditional wired telephones are now a distant reality with today’s industry being defined by cutting-edge optical fibers, satellite communications, wireless communications, and the internet.

To complete your initial post, select one of the following topics related to future trends within the telecommunication and networking industry:

  • Wireless/mobile devices
  • Protocols
  • Security
  • Media
  • E-commerce

Research one topic and analyze the current trends of it. Based on your research, make a prediction for how that topic will impact the networking and telecommunications industry.
