1) Assume that you are the project manager for an upcoming new information systems project designed to replace your organization’s old inventory management system. The server and database will also be upgraded. Name one risk of project derailment or failure that you might anticipate? How might you mitigate this risk? Answer should be at least 100 words

2) Respond in 50 or more words to this post:

As the book states when it comes to the responsibilities of the project manager, they are responsible for “planning the work, assessing the risk, estimating resources required to accomplish the work, organizing the work, acquiring human and material resources, assigning task, directing activities, controlling project execution, reporting progress, and analyzing the results.”(Laudon & Laudon, 2012/2014/2016, p.546)  Assigning the risk of implementing a new information system is something that would take time and most likely would find many risks involved in the process before and after. One risk that stands out from personal experience is that of loss of information during the transfer. I worked for a company that switched systems but was not able to access all of their necessary information needed to conduct business afterwards. In this case the information was not compatible with the new system. To prevent this from happening or from losing important information, I would start by backing up the current system so the information would not be lost. Secondly I would either personally or assign someone the task of making sure all of the information was compatible and if not would convert it into a compatible form to make the transfer.

PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING IN AT LEAST 2 – 3 PARAGRAPHS.

The higher the risk of an attacker entering an organization and compromising information, the more constraints the enterprise should place on their users.

– Suppose that your place of employment uses three (3) separate login methods to access different resources on the network. Assess how a Single Sign On (SSO) within an Active Directory Domain would be the best solution to this issue. Explain how Kerberos fits into the design and the mechanism used to provide security. Would there be any downsides to these methods? Justify your answer.

– Discuss the concept of least privilege and how you would determine the rights of users.
