As the new communications manager for International Gadgets, you have assembled a team of technical communicators with experience in communicating with various audiences in a business setting. Research & Development (R&D) has created a new product that it believes will revolutionize the industry. But the department needs the buy-in of several levels of the corporation to launch the new product. First, upper management needs to understand the product and how it will help the company expand before it will approve the funding needed to mass-produce the product. Sales and Marketing need to understand the product so it can be properly marketed. Technical Support needs to thoroughly know the product in order to support it to the customer base. And all employees need to know as much about the product as possible so that they can build excitement about the proposed launch. The head of R&D has come to you for your help in building excitement and buy-in throughout the company for the new product. Create a memo to your team that discusses the following:

• The possible channels of communication that can be used to communicate information about the product to various levels of the company, and how they could be used
• Your suggestions for which channels will be appropriate for which audiences and why
• Plans for how your team will communicate and collaborate on this project for the purpose of choosing the best channels of communications for various audiences in the company

Back up your plans with solid reasoning and research.

Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test on your network. Several vulnerabilities were identified, and the IT security management team has recommended mitigation. The manager has asked you to construct a plan of action and milestones (POA&M) given that the following vulnerabilities and mitigations were identified:

• The penetration test showed that not all systems had malware protection software in place. The mitigation was to write a malware defense process to include all employees and retest the system after the process was implemented.
• The penetration test indicated that the data server that houses employee payroll records had an admin password of “admin.” The mitigation was to perform extensive hardening of the data server.
• The penetration test also identified many laptop computers that employees brought to work and connected to the internal network,some of which were easily compromised. The mitigation was to write a bring your own device (BYOD) policy for all employees and train the employees how to use their devices at work.

need to make report for project

 write a research paper on an organization of choice (5-7 pages minimum).  The organizational analysis will utilize a minimum of five external, peer-reviewed academic sources and contain the following sections: 

.      What is the organization and how would you describe it?

·      Who are the leaders of the organization?

·      Is the organization successful?

·      How do you determine whether an organization is ethical or not?

·      Based on your assessment and research, is the organization ethical?

·      What would you change about the organization to make it better, without sacrificing ethical standards?

For the final project, you will be conducting a forensics investigation using one of the following items:

1. A smartphone
2. A network (ideally, a wireless network)

 You  may use either for your investigation. However, be aware of legal  issues surrounding your data gathering. If you are using any system you  do not personally control and have authority to investigate/discover,  please get written permission from the owner/operator of the system or  refrain from your forensics analysis of that systems and use a personal  system. For a network, you can use your own personal home network. For a  smartphone, consider using an image from the Internet or a personal  device. There could be issues related to using a live, active, personal  device (example: corruption of the device). If using a personal device,  consider using an old, outdated phone, if available.

 You  will review various forensics tools used with your selected system.  Select a tool and use that tool to gather forensics data for analysis.  You are simulating the process of gathering this data, so you do not  need to investigate a compromised device or system. The project  deliverables are as follows:

 Week  7 – Prepare an investigative report of the forensics data capture  conducted using the tool selected for this purpose. The paper should  provide the following information: 

• Executive  Summary of your investigation, including a description of the device or  systems and the tool used for the forensics analysis
• Step-by-step description you used to gather data for analysis
• Report on the information that was obtainable from the device
• Graphics evidence that you conducted the forensics data gathering and analysis

 The  paper should be in a form that would be used for reporting to a court  or a law enforcement agency. Be sure to provide graphics evidence of  your forensics investigation effort (Screenshots, reports, etc.).  References should be in APA format.

We have looked at how to create links to pages that are internal to our site as well as external links to other pages. This week, we’re going to discuss hyperlinks for our own site as well as other sites online. Consider the following questions:

• How does your file structure (where your pages are housed on the Web server) effect the code for your links?
• What is the advantage or disadvantage of having multiple folders for your site?
• Why is it important to understand the target attribute of the anchor tag?

Demonstrate it: You are developing a site for travel. From the homepage, a visitor wants to view packages for a trip to Japan. Based on the attached file structure and your knowledge of the Internet, write the code for links to the following:

• Visit Japan
• Family Friendly Tours
• Cycling Enthusiast Tours
• Culinary Based Excursions
• Weather in Japan for today
• Currency Exchange Rates

• Index.html
• about.html
• contact.html
• countries.html*

• japan.html
• family.html
• cycling.html
• culinary.html

*The countries page has a list of all the countries where the company has established tours.

Contingency Planning

Contingency planning is a risk mitigation process for developing back-up plans in anticipation of events (scenarios) that might disrupt ‘business as usual’. Business continuity planning is an expanded version of contingency planning that typically encompasses a more comprehensive and extended response plan for getting back to ‘business as usual’. In a well-formatted, highly-detailed research paper, address the need to contingency planning, ensuring to address the following items:

(1) Benefits of scenario events/planning.
(2) Questions to consider when implementing scenario planning.
(3) The common types of scenario planning.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately four to six pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)
• Follow APA 7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.
