The assignments that have been designed for the semester have involved building skill and confidence in obtaining software tools and gaining some proficiency in employing them to achieve specific, demonstrable security goals. The course project for INF306 does not involve a practical implementation, but rather, is more policy oriented. It will consist of a research paper on a specific IT security related law. Your specific topic will be selected from one of the 40 (or so) entries in Table 6.1 (page 91 in the current edition Kindle version) from the textbook (you may choose one not listed, but only with explicit prior permission of the instructor). This must be submitted to Blackboard for grading by 11:59 PM on the due date (check course calendar).
The body of the paper must reflect an understanding of the material presented in this course as well as an understanding of the law being researched. The paper must include a history of the law which provides a rationale as to why it was adopted. There must be discussion of the CIA or Parkerian Hexad models elements and types of risk management strategies that the law addresses and the controls it advises or provides. As appropriate, you will also address the organizational, personnel, and technical IT related impacts of both the underlying problem(s) and the law as solution. You may discuss cases involving the law and/or similar international laws.
The paper:
Your paper must consist of the following:
At least five (5) pages of written content: title pages, table of contents, diagrams, and reference pages do not count for content.
.pdf document
Formatted using US letter sized pages (811)
Double spaced
12pt Times New Roman font
One inch margins
Your paper must include a complete list of APA formatted bibliographic references and include in-text citations as appropriate. You will provide at least six intellectually rigorous referenced sources in addition to the law you will be researching. The references page does not count toward your page count.
Please use the following scenario, and attachments provided to complete order.
Scenario
You used to be a team leader at a video game company. That company had created dozens of games over the last number of years. But suddenly they had a huge success, creating a game that was downloaded, for free, by millions of people it was an instant sensation. People were clamoring to buy commercial products (toys, plushies, calendars, and others) based on the characters in the game, but the company had no plan for such an event, and as such lost millions of dollars in potential commercial sales.
Now, youve been hired on at a different video game development company. Based on these facts, craft a story to convince your new employer that your company must invest in a new type of team in order to make the most of any sudden success.
Facts:
1. You previously worked at Acme Smart Phone Games (ASPG). They created Wittle Pig, a tremendously successful video game. You were part of that team. The popularity of the game soared, and people were asking to buy commercial products based on the characters. No one at the company had any idea how to get products developed and available for customers. By the time they got some products out for sale, the popularity of the game had faded, and they didnt sell very much.
2. Your new employer has a team of 50 app developers, and a small marketing department that is located in a different building. Their job is mostly to get the finished games available on Android and IOS, and buy advertisements to solicit downloads.
3. Your company has not yet sold any commercial products for any games, though they have some nice company T-shirts with your own fun cartoon character logo.
Now, think about how you could use these facts to inform, educate and inspire your leadership. How can you convince them to restructure your current team in a way that anticipates success and prepares to commercialize your first, and subsequent, successful gaming apps?

This case is taken from Hill, Just Business, pp. 116-118.
Sovanny, a college student majoring in biology, works part time as a waitress for the Eager Eagle Restaurant. One evening an eight-month pregnant customer orders a double whisky before her meal. The following conversation occurs:
Sovanny: Oh, I don’t think you want to do that. I just studied the serious harm that alcohol can cause to babies. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is a serious problem.
Customer: Hey, this is my baby, not yours. Besides, you job is to serve me. Now get me my drink.
Sovanny: Just a minute, please.
Sovanny finds her manager, Bob, and expresses her concerns. After Bob discussion the matter directly with the customer, he orders Sovanny to deliver the drink. She refuses and is fired.
Has Sovanny acted correctly? What, if anything, would you have done differently?

Respond to two colleague’s post by suggesting two alternative methods for measuring their phenomenon. Explain why your suggestions have value. Please use the resources to support your answer
Colleague 1
Identify the phenomenon you would measure and explain how you conceptualize this phenomenon.
The impact of older adults receiving intervention for their suffering from the ills of ageism.
I conceptualized this phenomenon by choosing the variables I would measure.
1.The two variables are, (the impact of receiving intervention or not receiving intervention) & 2. Their (suffering or not suffering from the ills of ageism).
The older adults who receive social work intervention for ageism, will be more productive in society then those older adults who dont receive intervention.
Provide at least 3 questions you would use to measure this phenomenon and explain how these questions operationalize the phenomenon.
What interventions are utilized by social workers to prevent the impact of societal ageism for this fast-growing population of older adults?
What changes will occur in society when large numbers of older adults receive the intervention needed for empowerment to combat the barriers of ageism?
How can the social worker motivate 200 older adults, to participate and complete questionnaires pertaining to their demographic location, mental health condition, economic status, and physical health condition for study on ageism?
Define reliability in 2-3 sentences and give one example of how you would establish reliability for the questions you created.
Its important that while the researcher is doing a study, the test or tool being used formulates similar results, consistently, during diverse situations, because if the results are not consistent under various conditions it will be of just about no use (Yegidis, Weinbach & Myers, 2019, p. 236).
When I conduct my research with structure and accuracy, I will utilize pretest or questionnaires more than once to show reliability (Yegidis, Weinbach & Myers, 2019, p. 231).
Define validity in 2-3 sentences and give one example of how you would establish validity for the questions you created.
The validity is about accuracy of a research or test, I have to make sure my instruments which are pre-test and post-test for the independent variable creates the same results for what it claims to measure for validity, no matter the amount of trials (Yegidis, Weinbach & Myers, 2019, p. 237).
I will be able to show validity for my research by creating a culturally sensitive questionnaire geared for the older adult population, about ageism and the barriers it causes.
Create a measurement plan to assess the phenomenon.
Describe the methodology you would use to collect data using your measurement tool (your method for acquiring this research data).
Explain the advantages and disadvantages of your choices.
To create my measurement plan I have to choose a sample from a quantitative research participant, I will present data as pre-test, post- test and a questionnaire for extra data, because this is research for older adults, I want it to be structured with accurate measurements. The advantage is that I will help this population regain empowerment to be productive in society and curb ageism, the disadvantage is that some older adults are not always available or consistent for the best results because of adversities and barriers.

COLLAPSE
Working in the field Ive encountered various emotions from my clients due to their mental and physical diagnoses, but we work hard to encourage them to not let their diagnoses define who they are. The phenomenon I would measure would be anger because its often their first reaction and is often projected towards their parents and/or staff members. To conceptualize anger, I would breakdown the dynamics of what triggers this emotion, understand why its often displayed, and why do they often project anger towards parents and staff. Before engaging with the client its best to allow them time and space to calm down and get a clear understanding as to what happened. The three questions I would utilize are the following:
What caused you to become angry and why?
Why do you instantly project your anger towards those who are only trying to help?
What can you do to prevent this problem rather than choosing to act out in anger?
I feel that the questions asked can help gain clarity on what causes the person to react the way that they do and potentially help to develop positive ways for them to express themselves and get the help that they may need. Often times anger is triggered from another emotion that a person is unable to control or understand. Reliability refers to how consistently a method measures something (Middleton, 2019). If the same result can be consistently achieved by using the same methods under the same circumstances, the measurement is considered reliable (Middleton, 2019). Ill check the reliability by using the test-retest method to check the consistency patterns with each question asked. The validity of a measurement can be estimated based on three main types of evidence (Middleton, 2019). Each type can be evaluated through expert judgement or statistical methods (Middleton, 2019). Utilizing a standardized questionnaire can establish validity to gain a perspective of the common triggers of anger amongst clients. By using standardized consistent questionnaires, I can understand what causes certain reactions and why. Im able to gain understanding of the specific group of individuals to help develop coping mechanisms. The advantage of the questionnaire would be that we would have a direct cause and effect of the clients actions to trigger points and ways to prevent it. Disadvantages would be if the client is unable to explain why they become angry or chooses to answer incorrectly.
