 One of the most important aspect of developing good projects and programs is planning. 

Noted author Mark Twain hit it on the head when he said, “The Secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable ones then starting on the first one.”

Why is Planning Important? Give an example where you used planning and its importance.  This can be in any area of life: home building/projects, school, work, etc. Include any sources you use to answer this question. 

HW#2: Achieving Operational Excellence: Using Internet Tools to Increase Efficiency and Productivity

Software skills: Web browser software and presentation software

Business skills: Employee productivity analysis 

In this project, you’ll suggest applications of Internet technology to help employees at real-world company work more efficiently. 

Dirt Bikes’s management is concerned about how much money is being spent communicating with people inside and outside the company and on obtaining information about developments in the motorcycle industry and the global economy. You have been asked to investigate how Internet tools and technology could be used to help Dirt Bikes employees communicate and obtain information more efficiently. Dirt Bikes provides Internet access to all its employees who use desktop computers. 

How could the various Internet tools help employees at Dirt Bikes? Create a matrix showing what types of employees and business functions would benefit from using each type of tool and why.

How could Dirt Bikes benefit from intranets for its sales and marketing, human resources, and manufacturing and production departments? Select one of these departments and describe the kind of information that could be provided by an intranet for that department. How could this intranet increase efficiency and productivity for that department?

Use electronic presentation software to summarize your findings for management.

For this assignment, review the article:

Abomhara, M., & Koien, G.M. (2015). Cyber security and the internet of things: Vulnerabilities, threats, intruders, and attacks. Journal of Cyber Security, 4, 65-88. Doi: 10.13052/jcsm2245-1439.414

and evaluate it in 3 pages (800 words), using your own words, by addressing the following:

• What did the authors investigate, and in general how did they do so?
• Identify the hypothesis or question being tested
• Summarize the overall article.
• Identify the conclusions of the authors
• Indicate whether or not you think the data support their conclusions/hypothesis
• Consider alternative explanations for the results
• Provide any additional comments pertaining to other approaches to testing their hypothesis (logical follow-up studies to build on, confirm or refute the conclusions)
• The relevance or importance of the study
• The appropriateness of the experimental design

When you write your evaluation, be brief and concise, this is not meant to be an essay but an objective evaluation that one can read very easily and quickly. Also, you should include a complete reference (title, authors, journal, issue, pages) you turn in your evaluation. This is good practice for your literature review, which you’ll be completing during the dissertation process.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately three 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 clear and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

Lab Task #1

You are a detective. You have received the latest intelligence data on the target. The messages might have changed unintentionally when traveling through the network. You must implement CRC-3 to discover if the data you’ve obtained is error-free. Your polynomial is x^3 + x + 1. Each message is at most 29 bits long. Good luck!

This is what you are given:

unsigned int polynomial = 11;

unsigned int data[3] = {23, 80, 13548};

unsigned int crc[3] = {6, 4, 4};

The variable polynomial is the decimal representation of x^3 + x + 1. The array data contains information about latitude, longitude, and elevation of the target. The array crc contains the original calculated CRC-3 for the data.

Go through the data array and calculate the CRC-3 for each item in the array. Compare your calculation with the provided one in the crc array. Print [OK] or [FAILED] accordingly. If the calculations do not match, print the calculated CRC and expected CRC. Print the steps required to get to the calculated CRC.

In order to calculate the CRC-3 we are going to create a function crc3(). This function returns the check value of the CRC-3. We use printSteps to aide in our debugging. When set to true, it prints the binary steps.

The following function prototype is given:

unsigned int crc3(unsigned int binary, unsigned int polynomial, bool printSteps = false);

Example output is shown below for reference.

Latitude: 23	[FAILED]

	Calculated CRC: 3

	Expected CRC: 6

A small private healthcare organization has contracted you to investigate the requirements of encryption in their information systems and to develop a robust policy for its use. Write a formal report outlining your findings and presenting your recommendations.

Some topics you could address:

1. The range of documents and messages to be encrypted, e.g. Electronic Health Records (HER), Electronic Patient Records (EPR) and their security requirements.

2. The different objectives of the deployed cryptosystems, i.e. Confidentiality, Authentication and Non-repudiation. 

3. The specific cryptographic algorithms and architectures available, along with their relative advantages and drawbacks. Which will be best suited for which purposes?

4. How will the cryptographic protection of static documents (e.g. those stored on a server) differ from that of documents in transit (e.g. transferred within and between sites)?

5. Will there be issues of compatibility between the organization’s cryptographic policy, and that of the NHS?

6. How will your solution scale with the possible future development of the organization?

7. How will cryptographic keys (and certificates) be created and managed?

8. How will the different levels of authorization within the organization be managed?

9. How will the effectiveness of your solution be monitored and assessed?

These are only suggestions: your report will likely not cover all of themand you may discover others of equal importance which you might want to address. (Please contact the assessor if you have any concerns.) You may draw upon the material taught in class and/or your own independent research, but make sure you cite all your information sources. Feel free to make any assumptions you feel are necessary, but state and justify these.
