Designing Security Policy for a Named Company of Your Choice

IT-373—Network Security
Final Exam Project
Designing Security Policy for a Named Company of Your Choice

Definition of a Policy
By definition, security policy refers to clear, comprehensive, and well-defined plans, rules, and also practices that regulate access to an organization’s system and the information included in it. Good policy protects not only information and systems, but also individual employees and the organization as a whole.
A policy generally has these characteristics:
Communicates a consensus of judgment
Defines appropriate behavior for users
Identifies what tools and procedures
Provides directives for Human Resources action in response to inappropriate behavior
May be helpful if it is necessary to prosecute violators

Purpose. The purpose of this project is to ensure that appropriate measures are put in place to protect “Your Company’s” information and the Information Technology Services (ITS) systems, and equipment of the infrastructure.

Requirements:

a.    Students are required to select a company of their choice. It could be an existing company or your own creation. This is an individual project; not a group project!
For the company/organization you selected or made up, create a comprehensive Security Policy you deem appropriate to address all aspects of their infrastructure.  Please bear in mind that the purpose of this document is to ensure that appropriate measures are put in place to protect corporate information and the Information Technology Services (ITS) systems, services, and also equipment of “Your Company” and associated infrastructure.  This means that the policy aspects you select should address all the functional areas of the organization.

Firstly, conduct a brief research of the company you intend to use for this project to learn more about their security functional areas. This will help you to determine the policy aspects you should use. Policy Templates designed for this purpose are available for use by the public from the SANS website at no cost (pages 4 – 5). Secondly, a minimum of TWELVE aspects must be from all the FOUR major functional security areas (General Security, Network Security, Server Security, Application Security). Many of the Aspects listed in each main Security Functional area also have sub-categories, so you may have to dig further down to download those specific policy documents.  Don’t use any policy that is not applicable to “Your Company”.  For example, there is no need to use the Lab Security Policy if your company doesn’t have a lab.

Situational, Path-Goal, Transformational, and Adaptive Leadership Approaches

One of the more widely recognized approaches to leadership, the situational approach focuses on leadership in different situations, or the leadership style must be altered or adapted to the requirements of different workers and situations for the leaders to be effective. The path-goal approach focuses on enhancing worker performance and satisfaction by leaders choosing behaviors and providing information and rewards to increase worker motivation. One of the current and more popular leadership approaches, the transformational approach focuses on transforming workers and entire organizations through confident, charismatic, and visionary leadership by addressing worker motives, needs, and emotions while strengthening trust and confidence.

The adaptive approach focuses on leaders who prepare, support, motivate, and mobilize workers to effectively adapt to challenges and also changing circumstances. These leadership approaches are concerned with how the leader reacts to the workers.

What are psychological tests?

Psychological tests (also known as mental measurements, psychological instruments, psychometric tests, inventories, rating scales) are standardized measures of a particular psychological variable such as personality, intelligence, or emotional functioning. They often consist of a series of questions that subjects rank as true or false, or according to a Likert-type scale (agree, somewhat agree…), however tests can use written, visual or verbal methods.

Many tests are commercially publish ed. One well-known commercial test is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Commercial or published tests may need to be purchase from the publisher, and publishers may require proof that users have the professional credentials to administer the test.

In addition to commercial tests, there are countless unpublished tests that researchers design for particular studies in psychology, education, business and other fields.

Describing your personal philosophy of human learning

This final paper is a 7-9-page paper describing your personal philosophy of human learning.  The goal for this paper is to develop and communicate your own personal view of learning.

Describing your personal philosophy of human learning

In any career, it is important to have a personal philosophy that can help you to focus your work, understand why you do what you do, and communicate more effectively with others.  This final paper is a 7-9-page paper describing your personal philosophy of human learning.  The goal for this paper is to develop and communicate your own personal view of learning. Ideally, you would be able to use this as a guide for your future career and developing strategies to better facilitate human learning (in the many forms that takes).  You may utilize any theory/concept that we covered in class (and additional topics with approval) to support this philosophy.

It is more critical for you to convey how you relate a theory, idea, or topic to your vision/philosophy of learning than in demonstrating how much you know (though that will likely show up if done sufficiently).  In essence, tell me about what you care about, how you believe people learn, and how this will guide your future career goals.

Formatting: Your paper should include a title page and reference page.  The paper should also be in accordance with APA formatting.  Please utilize at least 7 references to support your philosophy.

Grading: See the rubric for more detail, but your grade will be primarily based on the integration of course material into your philosophy.  You will also be graded on writing clarity, style, and level of adherence to APA formatting.
