After reading Chapters 4 and 5 -answer the following prompts and create a new thread with your content.

Chapter 5 presents a methodology known as association analysis, which is useful for discovering interesting relationships hidden in large data sets. The uncovered relationships can be represented in the form of sets of items present in many transactions, which are known as frequent itemsets.

1. Please describe the methodology known as association analysis and discuss how association analysis is different from predictive analytics.
2. Research and provide an example of an organization that has been successful with the use of the data mining.  For example, A Police Department will primarily use predictive analytics to evaluate potential repeat offenders to fight crime.

“Product Evaluation and Participants Consent”  Please respond to the following:

• Product evaluation is an important step to ensure that a product will meet the quality, features, and overall design that is acceptable to the consumer. Imagine that you are an evaluator for a new product. Describe common challenges that you will find in a controlled and in a natural environment setting among users. Suggest actions that you can take in order to address or prevent these challenges.
• An Institutional Review Board (IRB) is concerned with how human participants in an evaluation are treated and how the collected data is analyzed and stored. Not every country has IRBs. Provide your opinion on how studies conducted in countries with no IRBs should be perceived. Suggest whether or not data collected during those studies would be reliable. Justify your response.

Division chiefs, program managers, and other senior staff members working in CISO organizations frequently find themselves needing to stay current on technologies while, at the same time, leading and managing segments of the IT security program and assigned staff. Attending conferences is one way that these senior level personnel can learn about new technologies, tactics, techniques, and practices which can be adopted by an enterprise. Over the course of two or three days, a busy manager or executive can attend a large number of briefings while also developing business relationships by networking with others in the field.

Find an IT Security or Cybersecurity conference that will be offered in the next six months and research the types of presentations and workshops which will be offered. Research the costs associated with attendance (conference fees, meals, lodging, travel). The conference venue must be within the continental United States. The conference itself should be one that you are interested in and would attend if the funding were made available.

Write up a travel request which includes a summary of the conference, a justification which explains the benefits of attendance (many conferences will provide a template), and an estimate for the costs that includes the following categories: conference or workshop fees, meals, lodging, travel. Format your travel request as a 1 – 1/2 page business memorandum (no more than 7 paragraphs) addressed to the Padgett-Beale CISO.

Your travel request should include links (URLs) for the conference and venue (including the hotel where you would stay). If meals are included in the conference fee then you should state that and not include those meals in your estimate. Use this GSA website to obtain estimates for meals that are not included in the conference fees: https://www.gsa.gov/travel/plan-book/per-diem-rates
