Week 7: Network Design, Management, and
Security – Discussion

The Wild, Wild
Web (graded)

Although we have discussed how the
Internet has been an invaluable tool for organizations and people across the
world, it has also had adverse impacts on these same groups. From identity
theft to denial-of-service attacks, networking technology is being harnessed
to harm people and organizations. Do some research and report a recent
information security incident. How could this incident have been avoided?
What management challenges did this incident present? Discuss which
technology from Chapter 11 of your textbook could have helped to prevent or
minimize the impact of this incident. .0001pt;”>Week 7: Network Design, Management, and

Justification (graded)

Cost-benefit analysis for our network
decisions is a critical skill and ability in IS management. What could we do
to impress the CFO with our submission? Let’s look at what they believe is
important in an article from the source, CFO Magazine’s site. Our ability
to sell technology recommendations to management often requires providing
cost analysis and perhaps even hard dollar benefits. How the CFO in your
organization thinks should be a good indicator of what will fly in terms of
getting support from the finance department. The CFO Magazine website
almost always has some information or articles related to technology or
networking.

Go to the CFO Magazine’s website found in the Webliography under CFO.

How could the articles or recommendations at the CFO site help your efforts?
Are these subjects where we should be looking to for future investments? How
likely is your organization to be looking at these?
