In this module, we have explored the surge of e-commerce and the escalation of online contracts. How has the evolution of the internet piloted the growth of e-contracts? With the implementation of legislation, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), what is the impact and significance of digital signatures in cyberspace?

Finally, in responding to your peers’ posts, discuss the validity of e-contracts within an information technology business model. What are the boundaries of e-contracts? Offer suggestions on how your peers can protect contracts that fall outside the boundaries. 

Project 6: Global Approaches to Cybersecurity
Step 13: Compose Global Cybersecurity Environment Report

Throughout this project, you have researched and considered global cybersecurity issues, technologies, and related policies. You have evaluated various countries and international organizations. It is now time to compose your consultant’s report to GlobalOutreach documenting your findings. Refer to the instruction for the Global Cybersecurity Environment Report for additional guidelines.

Submit your completed report.

Check Your Evaluation Criteria

Before you submit your assignment, review the competencies below, which your instructor will use to evaluate your work. A good practice would be to use each competency as a self-check to confirm you have incorporated all of them. To view the complete grading rubric, click My Tools, select Assignments from the drop-down menu, and then click the project title.

• 2.1: Identify and clearly explain the issue, question, or problem under critical consideration.
• 7.2: Evaluate international cybersecurity policy.
• 8.2: Evaluate specific cybersecurity threats and the combination of technologies and policies that can address them.

Instruction for the Global Cybersecurity Environment Report

Review the work you have done throughout the project. If necessary, review the eLearning modules in steps 6 and 9 and your Simtray Report completed in Step 3 along with the feedback from your instructor.

Be sure to address the following items at some point in your report.

• Analyze critical issues in global cybersecurity management and policy.
• Analyze critical issues in global cybersecurity technology policy.
• Analyze the principles of warfare that underpin cyberwarfare theory and application.
• Assess cybersecurity policies and procedures for transnational legal compliance.
• Compare and contrast international cybersecurity standards bodies.
• Identify key initiatives in international cybersecurity policy.
• Assess the cross-cutting effects of policy, budget, and technological capabilities upon the ability to address cyberthreats at the enterprise, national, and international levels.
• Assess policy and technology trade-offs that must be considered and made when addressing cyberthreats at the enterprise, national, and international levels.
• Assess and critique cybersecurity programs.
• Assess emerging cybersecurity issues, risks, and vulnerabilities.
• Assess key cyberattack technologies.
• Assess how the theories and principles of war apply to cyberwarfare, and apply those theories to understand cyberoffense and cyberdefense challenges.

 This week we focus on the concept of false discovery in data.  After reviewing the article by Naouma (2019), answer the following questions:

1. What is a false discovery rate?
2. Can a false discovery rate be completely avoided?  Explain.
3. What was the outcome of the results of the use case?

Subject: Project Management

Academic paper: 

1. Minimum 3-4 page without title page

2. Minimum 4 references should be cited

3. APA Formatted

What do you think about the CHAOS study’s definition of a successful project? 

Do you think there are better definitions of success besides meeting scope, time, and cost goals?

 Write a Research paper on three of the following topics as it relates to or complements Systems Analysis and Design (SAD): 

> Descriptive, Predictive & Prescriptive Analytics (why SAD should consider Analytics) 

> Analytics Competencies Centers (Collaboration between Business Analysts, IT Specialists and Users) 

> Cloud Computing (PaaS, IaaS, SaaS, DaaS, AaaS) (how SAD is different for cloud solutions) 

> Hadoop and Advanced Data Management (data sources that may impact SAD) 

> Blockchains (how Blockchains impact SAD) . 

Your research paper must be at least 5 pages in length, double-spaced, 12 font, and include at least 5 references, at least 2 of which must be peer-reviewed. Your paper must be formatted using APA guidelines. Do not include a cover page. Do not include an abstract. The reference page is NOT included in the 4-page length requirement. 

The paper should include an Introduction (to include a Hypothesis based on the research), Literature Review (Evidence) and Analysis of the Literature. All references must be cited within the text. Since the paper includes multiple topics, each topic must be separated and start with a HEADING. Include a conclusion at the end of the paper to summarize the entire paper and analyze how each topic relates together as related to the use of Systems Analysis and Design.
