ITS 460 Milestone – Propose a Security Program for an Organization | My Homework Helper

Preparation: Choose a real or hypothetical organization, corporation (profit or non-profit), or institution that uses IT in its product, services, activities, and/or operations. If you work in an organization or field that could benefit from an information security program, you might wish to apply the project to it.
Assignment: Prepare a well-written security program proposal for your organization that utilizes the concepts learned in the course as a basis for your analysis and proposed solution.
Make sure that your proposal includes these basic elements of a good security policy:
An introduction that describes your organization, its mission, products/services, technical resources, and technical strategy.
An assessment of the impact on organizational culture from implementing information security.
An assessment of likely challenges in implementing and sustaining the proposed information security program.
Your recommendation for a security program should:Propose a set of information security positions and titles and define the roles information security personnel will have in the new organization.
Include an organizational chart that reflects the proposed security personnel.
Describe security education and training—who is trained on what subjects and how often.
Consider security awareness—how to incorporate information security awareness throughout the organization.
Summarize your security program recommendations.

Important: You must justify every element of your proposal in ethical and legal terms. In other words, you need to state why each policy/code element (including technical elements) is good for business and why it is good/sound ethical policy (how it is good for the organization and why it is good for customers, users, or employees, or the public). You should also identify any ethical/legal tensions, conflicts, and/or contradictions and justify any trade-offs being made in the recommendation.
Your paper should be 8-10-pages in length and conform to APA guidelines in the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). Discuss and cite at least three credible or scholarly sources other than the course textbooks (which can be cited as well) to support your analysis and policy choices. The CSU Global Library is a good place to find these references.
Scenario Selection – Information Security Program
Submit a brief description of the real or hypothetical organization, corporation (profit or non-profit), or institution that uses IT in its product, activities, or operations that will serve as the scenario for your Portfolio Project. If you work or have worked for an organization could benefit from an information security program, consider using it as the scenario for your project. Your description should be at least a paragraph and no more than a page in length. You will receive valuable instructor feedback on your description that should be processed when you complete the Portfolio assignment.
