Project 2

Project description
Policy Issue & Plan of Action
The Managers Deskbook contains issue specific policies and implementation procedures which are required to mitigate risks to the company and to otherwise ensure good governance of the companys operations. The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and key CISO staff members held a kick-off meeting last week to identify issue specific policies which should be added to the companys policy system in the IT Governance category. The policies will be disseminated throughout the company by incorporating them into the Managers Deskbook. The required issue specific policies are:
1.Data Breach Response Policy
2.Preventing / Controlling Shadow IT Policy
3.Management and Use of Corporate Social Media Accounts Policy
4.Corporate Domain Name Management Policy
5.Website Governance Policy
For the purposes of this assignment, you will create a policy recommendations briefing package (containing an Executive Summary and draft policies) and submit that to your instructor for grading.
Note: In a real world environment, the policy recommendations briefing package would be submitted to the IT Governance board for discussion and vetting. After revisions and voting, a package containing the accepted policies would be sent to all department heads and executives for comment and additional vetting. These comments would be combined and integrated into the policies and sent out for review again. It usually takes several rounds of review and comments before the policies can be sent to the Chief of Staffs office for forwarding to the Corporate Governance Board. During the review & comments period, the policies will also be subjected to a thorough legal review by the companys attorneys. Upon final approval by the Corporate Governance Board, the policies will be adopted and placed into the Managers Deskbook. This entire process can take 9 to 12 months, if not longer.
Your Task Assignment
As a staff member supporting the CISO, you have been asked to research and then draft an issue specific policy for each of the identified issues. These policies are to be written for MANAGERS and must identify the issue, explain what actions must be taken to address the issue (the companys policy), state the required actions to implement the policy, and name the responsible / coordinating parties (by level, e.g. department heads, or by title on the organization chart). After completing your research and reviewing sample policies from other organizations, you will then prepare an approval draft for each issue specific policy.
The purpose of each issue specific policy is to address a specific IT governance issue that requires cooperation and collaboration between multiple departments within an organization.
Each issue specific policy should be no more than two typed pages in length (single space paragraphs with a blank line between).
You will need to be concise in your writing and only include the most important elements for each policy.
You may refer to an associated procedure if necessary, e.g. a Procedure for Requesting Issuance of a Third Level Domain Name (under the companys Second Level Domain name) or a Procedure for Requesting Authorization to Establish a Social Media Account.
Your approval drafts will be combined with a one page Executive Summary (explaining why these issue specific policies are being brought before the IT Governance Board).

Psychology Essay Questions

1. Choose one person from the following list whom you feel played an important role in the history of psychology: Freud, Pavlov, Skinner, Maslow, or Piaget. Describe what that person did, the approximate time that this person lived, what makes their contribution important, and criticisms of their work or theoretical position (10 points).2. David\’s history teacher asked him why so many German people complied with Hitler\’s orders to systematically slaughter millions of innocent Jews. David suggested that the atrocities were committed because the Germans had become unusually cruel, sadistic people with abnormal and twisted personalities. But this is wrong.  Your task in this question is to use your knowledge of \”the fundamental attribution error\” and especially of Milgram\’s research on obedience to highlight the weaknesses of David\’s explanation and to offer a more likely explanation for the slaughter of millions of Jews during World War II.  This question is to evaluate your understanding of the fundamental attribution error and Milgrim\’s research on obedience.  (10 points).3. Choose a behavior that you would like to modify or change using the principles of operant conditioning. Be sure to use and explain the following terms: operant conditioning, positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, punishment, schedules of reinforcement, shaping and extinction.  (10 points).4. Imagine that you were involved in a legal case in which an eyewitness claimed that he has seen a person commit a crime. Based on your knowledge about memory and cognition (see textbook to bolster your knowledge for this question; attend to research by Loftus especially), discuss some of the problems of eye-witness accounts.  (10 points).
