Risk Index Worksheet For Comparing And Prioritizing Risks

May 6, 2020 Leave a comment Information Systems

 

We have almost completed the process of developing our HVA. Once an Emergency Manager had completed the HVA and it has been approved by the community partners and organizations you would publish it for those involved in Emergency Management. To get there you need to ensure that you have a priority assigned to each of the hazards. You need this to also assist you in your mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery activities. For this assignment, I want you to complete the Risk Index Worksheet for Comparing and Prioritizing Risks for each type of hazard; natural, technological, and manmade.

Instructions

  1. Download the EDMG101 HVA Risk Index.xlsx.  This contains a cover sheet and 3 blank tabs to fill–Natural, Technological, and Human.
  2. Fill out your name and date on the cover tab.
  3. Copy the hazards you identified in all 3 tabs from the HVA Vulnerability workbook.  Use the drop-down values in each of the column categories.  Type in any special characteristics & planning conditions.  Determine and set the risk priority.
  4. Add your first initial and last name to the filename. ie: AJones HVA Risk Index.xlsx
  5. Submit here in the classroom.

You have been asked to speak at a local high school about the opportunities and what students could expect if they decide to pursue a degree in information technology(IT). During the question-and-answer portion of your presentation, you are asked about why Windows XP, Server 2003, and Server 2008 are still so prevalent in most organizations, and what prevents these same organizations from upgrading to the newer operating system. How will you respond to these questions?

This week, we will again watch a video, “Good Night and Good Luck,” about one of journalism’s biggest heroes, Edward R. Murrow. He takes on Senator Joseph McCarthy and his destructive hunt for Communists in the U.S. in this film. Murrow sets the agenda of news people in America (and hence, Americans) in his fight against McCarthy. McCarthy’s Blacklist of Hollywood people and people on Broadway and in literature (after all, how best to spread propaganda if not through movies, plays and books?) was very destructive. In this film, think of these questions as you watch and then as you respond to this dialog: what tipped Murrow over the edge and made his TV show a single-issue show? What finally occurs that destroys McCarthy? News people are supposed to be impartial and tell both sides of a story – does Murrow violate this principle? Is he overly fixated on McCarthy’s lies and lose his objectivity?

Roger Ebert said this “is a movie about a group of professional newsmen who with surgical precision remove a cancer from the body politic.”
