The purpose of this assignment is to get some experience using HTML web editors. There are many commercial and free options to choose from. If you have access to programs such as Adobe Dreamweaver or Microsoft Expression Web feel free to utilize them. There are several free open source web editors such as Kompozer, Amaya, and Bluefish.

Here is a page link from Wikipedia showing a comparison of Web HTML Editors. This might be a good place to start when making your choice of software. Copy the URL below to your browser.

Assignment

Your assignment is to download (if necesary) and experiment with two different Web HTML Editors. Search YouTube for any available tutorials on how to use the software. For each editor, create a page with a table, image, lists, and cascading style sheet. Include the name of the editor in the comments in the HTML file. Feel free to also include any other features you find interesting. Create a short write up containing information about your reaction to using each program. Did you like it? What features did you like? What features did you not like or felt could have been better? If you prefer, you can include this information inside the pages (display it when the file is opened with a browser) that you create using the programs. Do this process for two different HTML Web Editor programs. Do not submit the exact same code for each editor. The HTML file for each editor must be different. Submit the pages you created along with the write ups (If separate documents) to the correct submission box.

Assignment: Risk Management in a Business Model

Learning Objectives and Outcomes

• Create a report documenting various aspects of how risk management impacts the business model.

Scenario

You work for a large, private health care organization that has server, mainframe, and RSA user access. For the third week in a row, Sean comes into your office at 5:00 p.m. on Friday and needs you to write a report describing some of the risks associated with not having all the security items in place. He needs you to research a generic risk management policy template and use that as a starting point to move forward. He also asked you to search for risk outcome examples from organizations similar to theirs.

The task is due over the weekend.

You realize that your organization does not have much in the way of an information security strategy, and is missing many of what you think are critical components. Your organization is compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and follows other external compliance requirements. 

Assignment Requirements

Research templates, and look for risk outcome examples from organizations of a similar type as your organization. Write a report identifying the risks associated with the current position your organization is in, and how your organization can mitigate risk by using information security systems policies. Include an introduction explaining the following: Who? What? When? Why? Be sure to add a conclusion with a rationale detailing how risks can be mitigated. Reference your research so that Sean may add or refine this report before submission to senior management.
