Term Paper: Contingency Planning in Action Create a hypothetical organization with details including geographic location(s), number of employees in each location, primary business functions, operational and technology details, potential threats to the business and its technology, and anything else that you believe is relevant to the business. Assume this organization is lacking in its contingency planning efforts and requires assistance in ensuring these efforts are appropriately addressed to increase its overall security and preparedness posture. Write a ten to fifteen (10-15) page paper in which you: Provide an overview of the organization and indicate why contingency planning efforts are needed and how these efforts could benefit the business. Develop a full contingency plan for the organization. Include all subordinate functions / sub plans, including BIA, IRP, DRP, and BCP efforts. Determine the policies and procedures that would be needed for all contingency planning efforts. Detail the role of the policy / procedure, and explain how each would help achieve the goals of these efforts.  Detail the processes to utilize in order to fully implement the contingency plan and its components, and explain the efforts to consider in maintaining the plans. Create a hypothetical incident scenario where the contingency planning efforts would need to be utilized and detail: (a) How the plan is sufficiently equipped to handle the incident. (b) a timeline for the incident response and recovery efforts. Identify any ethical concerns that are specific to this organization and its incident response personnel (especially the CP Team Leader), and explain how to plan for these concerns.  Use at least five (5) quality resources in this assignment.

1. Make a list of four recent disruptive innovations.  Identify firms that successfully adapted and some that didn’t.  For those firms that failed to make the transition, why do you think they failed?  List two disruptive innovations you can envision for the future and how do you think the firms will adapt to your predictions?  What could possibly make them fail?  (Two pages or less should be sufficient). 2. Investigate the revenues and net income of major software players: Microsoft, Google, Oracle, Red Hat, and Salesforce.com. Which firms have higher revenues? Net income? Which have better profit margins? What do the trends in OSS, SaaS, and cloud computing suggest for these and similar firms? Hint:  You might want to organize your data in a table so it’s easier to compare the companies’ revenue and net income figures. You should be able to complete this assignment in a single page.

After reviewing the “Displaying Quantitative Information” slides, flip through the GSU Steering Committee’s Master Plan update presentation from 1.22.19 at the following link http://georgiasouthern.sasaki.com/data/20190121_Steering%20Committee%20Presentation.pdf *Open in a new browser & if the link doesn’t work, Google “Georgia Southern steering committee master plan”.   You should find a document by Sasaki (the consultant).   Submit responses to the following questions in a Word document through this Dropbox assignment: 1.  Explain why it is important to be able to display data visually. 2.  Is time-series analysis used anywhere in the GSU Master Plan link?  If so, give an example (title and slide #). 3.  Do you think the GSU Master Plan information is focused more on data variation or design variation?  Why?   4.  What is something that surprised you in the data from the GSU Master Plan?

Contingency Plan DLIS needs to prepare for the prevailing computer incidents of today and tomorrow. A computer incident response team (CIRT) plan can help prepare an organization for many computer security incidents that might occur. For this assignment, you will discuss a CIRT plan, which is often used as a contingency plan, for DLIS. A system administrator noticed yesterday that several of the file servers at HQ were responding very slowly. The DLIS headquarters (HQ) handles all incidents, so the plan will have its roots at HQ. Read a recent article, like the latest IBM Threat Intelligence Index, to gather information on current threats and remember to leverage the BCP and DRP you generated for the organization last week. Write a 5–6 page paper in which you: Describe purpose and primary elements of a CIRT plan. Discuss the relationship between a CIRT plan and risk management. Discuss the five Ws (who, what, where, when, and why) found in a CIRT plan in regard to the incident given in the above scenario. Explain how DLIS can leverage their BCP and DRP to develop and support its CIRT plan. Explain how you think threats will evolve to impact DLIS in the future and how the CIRT plan should be updated to combat them. Discuss at least five best practices to follow when creating a CIRT plan. Use at least two quality resources in this assignment.  The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is: Develop a contingency plan for sample organization to include: business continuity, disaster recovery, and incident response.
