Executive Program Practical Connection Assignment

At UC, it is a priority that students are provided with strong educational programs and courses that allow them to be servant-leaders in their disciplines and communities, linking research with practice and knowledge with ethical decision-making. This assignment is a written assignment where students will demonstrate how this course research has connected and put into practice within their own career.

Assignment:
Provide a reflection of at least 500 words (or 2 pages double spaced) of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. 

 Requirements:

1. Provide a 500 word (or 2 pages double spaced) minimum reflection.

2. Use proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited. Question to ponder… should references be used in a personal reflection paper?

3. Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course. 

4. Demonstrate a connection to your current work environment. If you are not employed, demonstrate a connection to your desired work environment. 

5. You should NOT provide an overview of the assignments assigned in the course. The assignment is to reflect how the knowledge and skills obtained through meeting course objectives were applied or could be applied in the workplace.  

6. Personal Connection paper should have a maximum of 20% similarity score. 

Please refer to the following APA format file and follow everything mentioned. Especially Table of contents, Conclusion.

As the head of information systems for a college you are tasked with developing a new student 
registration system. The college would like a new client-server system to replace its much older system 
developed around mainframe technology. The new system will allow students to register for courses 
and view report cards from personal computers attached to the campus LAN. Professors will be able to 
access the system to sign up to teach courses as well as record grades.
Due to a decrease in federal funding, the college cannot afford to replace the entire system at once. The 
college will keep the existing course catalog database where all course information is maintained. This 
database is an Ingres relational database running on a DEC VAX. Fortunately the college has invested in 
an open SQL interface that allows access to this database from college’s Unix servers. The legacy system 
performance is rather poor, so the new system must ensure that access to the data on the legacy system 
occurs in a timely manner. The new system will access course information from the legacy database but 
will not update it. The registrar’s office will continue to maintain course information through another 
system.
At the beginning of each semester, students may request a course catalogue containing a list of course 
offerings for the semester. Information about each course, such as professor, department, and 
prerequisites, will be included to help students make informed decisions.
The new system will allow students to select four course offerings for the coming semester. In addition, 
each student will indicate two alternative choices in case the student cannot be assigned to a primary 
selection. Course offerings will have a maximum of ten students and a minimum of three students. A 
course offering with fewer than three students will be canceled. For each semester, there is a period of 
time that students can change their schedule. Students must be able to access the system during this 
time to add or drop courses. Once the registration process is completed for a student, the registration 
system sends information to the billing system so the student can be billed for the semester. If a course 
fills up during the actual registration process, the student must be notified of the change before 
submitting the schedule for processing.
At the end of the semester, the student will be able to access the system to view an electronic report 
card. Since student grades are sensitive information, the system must employ extra security measures to 
prevent unauthorized access.
Professors must be able to access the on-line system to indicate which courses they will be teaching. 
They will also need to see which students signed up for their course offerings. In addition, the professors 
will be able to record the grades for the students in each class.
Give below are the UML Use Case Diagram and Use Case Specifications (Descriptions). Your task is to 
draw the Sequence and Class Diagram(s).

 If an attacker can retrieve the API and libraries, then use these to write an agent, and then get the attacker’s agent installed, how should Digital Diskus protect itself from such an attack? Should the business analytics system provide a method of authentication of valid agents in order to protect against a malicious one? Is the agent a worthy attack surface?
