Selling Security to the Organization
Please type a three- to five-page (800 to 1,200 words) paper. Using APA style, assess the importance of developing a comprehensive security policy within the organization. What you need to convey to your CEO is that network attacks are continuing to make the news and organizations have reacted by increasingly spending more of their overall IT budget on security. Business executives are starting to have questions about what they’re receiving for their increased IT security spending.

How are you getting along with your supervisor?” How do you respond to these questions?

/in /by

As you enter the elevator at your workplace, you discover that you–and you alone–are there with the President of the company. Although you have met only twice before, she remembers your name. As you are on your way up 40 floors (and the elevator will not stop before then because she used her special key), she asks: “How are things going in your unit?” Later she asks, “How are you getting along with your supervisor?” How do you respond to these questions? Support your answer.

We are supposed to analyze a product, we chose to do an Apple Maps (with the missing features Google Maps incorporates ie. multistop route, bike routes, terrain). There is trouble with writing up the technical feasibility analysis (supposed to be 500 +/- words), if you could please help with this. I’ve included group notes on our ideas. Below is the criteria that much be written on (roughly 150 words each): 
Technical feasibility (Can we build it?) 
Familiarity with functional area
Familiarity with technology
Project size
Compatibility
Group notes:
Apple maps
Premise: integrate various user-friendly and preferred functionalities from similar services to develop a more cohesive and popular product, without ‘crowding’ the user-interface.
Why we chose: underrated, product has great reach (pre-installed on apple products within certain software versions), has pre-existing ability to support added functionalities (i.e. solid platform and existing data)
Ideas for functional requirements: make the app more intelligible, a ‘one-stop-shop’ style app. I.e. could plan an entire day’s activities in one place (transport updates, sight-seeing activities, real-time business promotions displayed)
Multi-stops
Real-time traffic data
Bike/hiking routes
Separate tabs for different functionalities (to avoid interface clutter)
Inbuilt business promotions (i.e. route to a location displays coffee/food deals along the way)
Nightlife feature (live feed from bars/clubs displaying drink deals, DJ/bands performing, how many people are there; especially topical given new lock out laws)
Live feed of pop-up events, ‘what’s on’
Non-functional requirements
Accurate data/route options
Real-time geo-tracking (high speed)
Mobile and desktop optimisation
Low technicality (app is used by a variety of age groups)
Multi-lingual, locations’ names aren’t translated
it looks like it cut out the beginning of my message: We are supposed to analyze a product, we chose to do an Apple Maps (with the missing features Google Maps incorporates ie. multistop route, bike routes, terrain).

Assignment 2: Challenges in the Global Business Environment
According to the textbook, ongoing challenges in the global business environment are mostly attributed to unethical business practices, failure to embrace technology advancements, and stiff competition among businesses. Imagine that you have been appointed as Apple’s Chief Compliance Officer and must prepare a video presentation for Apple’s suppliers regarding Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver via a web meeting. To prepare for your presentation, review Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct, located at https://www.apple.com/supplier-responsibility/. Next, use a tablet, smartphone, laptop, desktop, or traditional video recorder to record a maximum of a five to seven (5-7) minute dynamic video on Apple’s Code of Conduct. Alternatively, you may submit a four to six (4-6) page paper instead of the video submission.
In addition to the recorded video, you must also create a presentation using PowerPoint (or other equivalent software) summarizing the important changes and explanations regarding the code of conduct that you communicated in your video presentation to email to the suppliers after the meeting for future reference.
You must submit both parts of the assignment to receive full credit.
Note: If you are using a tablet or smartphone you will need to email the video file to yourself, then save it to a computer in order to upload to Blackboard. You may want to upload your video to a file sharing service, such as Dropbox, if your email will not let you send a large video file. Dropbox is accessible from all smartphones and tablets from the Dropbox app.
Once you are ready to upload your video to Blackboard, view the Kaltura video tutorial found in your online course shell (Week 9).
Please use the following naming convention in the popup window for your video once it is finished uploading:
