This paper is on the topic on civil disobedience. Specifically, on individuals who have risen up against the government - willing to take the consequences because it is a noble cause they're standing up for.
Please follow this outline:
1) Introduction: What is civil disobedience? Elaborate on this.
2) Individual Examples: Please talk about (a) dissidents from around the world, (b) Rosa Parks, and (c) Vietnam war resisters. These should be examples of people who have stood against injustice, immorality, etc., etc.
3) Closing.
Again, the goal of this paper is to talk about the subject of civil disobedience, and the philosophical questions it poses. Then, the goal is to talk about specific people who have risen up against something, or some government. These people are fully aware that by standing up, they will be punished. But they are willing to take that punishment because they know that what they are doing is right morally -- although it may not be legal.

Critical Analysis Paper

this case study is for a course that is an introduction to the design and facilitation of collaborative methods for
conflict resolution. We will begin by setting out the nature and functions of regulating behavior through a systems perspective. Specifically that the individual and group behaviors are be regulated through
combinations of laws, norms, education, architectures, and incentives.


the case that is analyzed is the new "Premarital Sex = Marriage", Indian High Court Rules

This is the link :
http://news.naij.com/37726.html



this is the format of the case study :

Analyze what is happening in a current news story through the
lens of the five constraints presented in the Lessig reading which i will provide (law, incentives, education,
norms, and architecture).

Do the following:
1- describe the situation: what is the problem, who is
involved, and what approach are they taking to address the problem?

For instance, to combat crime, the local police force is now using a technical
approach of GPS systems to track suspected criminals' cars.

2-describe what values or issues are in conflict in the situation.
For instance, reducing crime vs. unreasonable or warrentless car searches based on
monitoring driving behavior.

3- propose an alternative approach for addressing the same issue using a different constraint or a different combination of the four constraints.

For instance, providing a free license plate renewal for all cars that volunteer to have
a GPS installed.

4- analyze the differences in the values or issues that are in conflict in the original idea and those in conflict in your proposed idea.

I provided a token car/GPS example above to guide you as to what my expectations are for what
type of comments to make. Your analysis should be much more significant,
should reference the book, and should demonstrate a creative approach to the
problem


***** you will need to reference the course
readings. This will true all course long. Great ideas and writing are a good start,
but you also need to demonstrate how your thoughts interact with the course
content (even if it is to disagree).

Below is my paper that I sumbitted for my Stategic Plan Part I of the plan: Order # A2055793


Conceptualizing a business
Mission statement
The companys mission is to develop a comprehensive portfolio in the timely delivery of products and services in the VoIP world and data wiring in partnership with customers and other industry leaders in order to provide high quality services of installation and repair of phone systems, automated attendants and voice mail systems, voice, data and fiber optical cable installation and networking service assistance to ensure customer satisfaction to help in the continued growth and prosperity of the company and its employees.
Vision
The vision is to become the preferred company in the provision of VoIP and data wiring
Values or guiding principles
Progressing, Skillful, Open, Knowledgeable, Empowering, Networking, Yielding Results, Accountable
How the vision, mission and values guide the organizations strategic direction
The company mission is important because it provides a lighthouse to the company and it reflects on the company culture so that the company can be able to look back and get back on track should it lose direction. When a company has a mission statement, it can refer to it regularly and it helps in ensuring the company is always meeting its set goals and objectives. The mission statement also helps in the formation of goals and objectives both in the long and short run. Companies which have mission statements have been found to perform up to their own set goals and objectives as compared to those which do not have a written mission statement.
From this mission statement, we can see that it embodies the values of the company which are customer service, quality, and partnership. It also has all the services and products that will be rendered by the company and thus the organization will be able to have a basis for evaluation both internally and externally.
According to Peter Senge (1990), the vision of an organization is a force in peoples hearts, a force of impressive power. Senge continued to expound that this force is as a result of the gap that exists between the vision of the organization and the organizations current situation and this is what provokes the creative tension between the people in the organization and is what drives them to the achievement of the goals and objectives of the organization.
By analyzing Senges thoughts on the organizations vision, it can be found that the vision is a strong and steady identity of the company or organization and although it is something that can never be 100% achieved, it provokes the positive progress in the organization. It strives to drive innovation and improvement in the organization in order to move towards the desired future. As per Collins and Porras (2002), the organizations vision encompasses both the core ideology and the future of the organization that is envisioned. The core ideology is the values and purpose of the organization and the envisioned future is the long term goals and descriptions of the organizations future.
The vision of the organization provides two key advantages. The first is that it provides a way which is effective for the organization to frame their action plan. The second advantage is that it promotes integration of the various functions of the organization.
The company values as envisioned by Collins and Porras (2002) is part of the core ideology of an organization. The core values of the organization are somewhat like the character or personality of the organization. They are the aspects of the organization which the company holds despite any changes in the market conditions or demands. Collins and Porras (2002) state that the values of an organization should stand to the question on whether the organization would still be willing to hold on to these values if they were a disadvantage to the organization itself.
Various researches that have been conducted have exemplarily shown that the companies which have succeeded are the ones which are guided by the company values. The core values of an organization reflect the functional ideologies in the company and they should not be alterable in any situation. Whether it is an economic downturn or increased competition (Huizing, Koster, & Bouman, 1997).
Collins and Porras (2002) state that the values are not just important. They are inherent to the overall company success. They are at the core of the company or organization and they help to guide the organization through their business activities. Since the values are meant to withstand changes in the business industry and market, they give a long term direction to the organization that does not change. In this sense, the values bring stability to the organization. They also guide the behavior of employees since they need to act in the correct way to uphold the company values. Lastly, the values provide a standard approach to the organizations activities. This is especially crucial for a multi-national organization or one which has several branches since the values will be similar for all the different stores or branches.
Evaluation of how the organization addresses customer needs and critique of how the company achieves competitive advantage
The company having evaluated the needs of the customers and market in general in terms of VoIP services and data wiring has come up with these innovative products to help it meet the customer needs. First is through the company being knowledgeable in the market which it is entering. This is achieved through the company and its employees being skilled and innovative in the provision, maintenance and installation of VoIP equipment and the various services embodied in the needs that are identified.
Secondly is through the company positioning itself as the premier provider of VoIP and data services. This is achieved through low pricing of the services. This is achieved through having low costs of production and other costs incurred by the organization or company. This will also help the organization to achieve competitive advantage.
The company aims to achieve competitive advantage through various ways. One is by having low costs thus enabling the company to provide their services and products at a low cost to the customer. The second way of achieving competitive advantage is the differentiation of the companys products and services.

OSI Inc. Global IT Mission Statement

The Global Information Technology Organization is to create a world class IT support system for OSI Systems and all its entities. IT will map technology with the human-user element creating solutions that the organizations will incorporate in their operations to achieve higher productivity- cost, efficiency-cost, and become more competitive in their business. IT will go beyond the traditional supporting role and address each department within each division and apply technology to enable their respective areas to achieve their predetermined goals that are aligned with the companys long and short term objectives. Meeting goals, achieving success, and evaluating services will be the cornerstone of the global IT organization.

OSI is composed of 3 divisions and corporate headquarters: Rapiscan Systems, OSI Optoelectronics and SpaceLabs Healthcare.

OSI Corporate is composed of:

Finance
Human Resources
Information Technology
Internal Audit
Law Department
Travel

Background: OSI Systems, Inc is a worldwide company based in California that develops and markets security and inspection systems such as airport security X-ray machines and metal detectors, medical monitoring anesthesia systems, and optoelectronic devices. OSI Inc. had sales of $595 million with net income of over $25 million. As of June 2010, the company employs approximately 2,460 personnel globally and includes subsidiary companies Spacelabs Healthcare, Rapiscan Systems and OSI Optoelectronics. OSI Systems, through its subsidiaries, have offices and plants in Malaysia, England, Australia, Africa, and the United States and Canada making it a truly global manufacturer. All subsidiaries and offices are connected globally to OSI through OSIs world-wide intranet system. Third party vendors are connected to the companys extranet.
With this backdrop in place it is easy to picture the potential scale of possible security problems and vulnerabilities facing the company. In this light, a throughout information security examination and evaluation of OSIs information security posture and practices will be conducted. This examination will be composed of the following information security components:
1. Corporate and IT Organizational structure including rules and resources with respect to information security
2. Stakeholders (users, managers, and designers) interacting with information security.
3. Security technology (technical platform)
4. Tasks associated with information security (goals and deliverables)
5. Information Security risks

Each main corporate office and facility plant has as its information technology security framework a combination of dual firewalls with appropriate DMZ zones within the firewall routers for outside user access along with numerous intrusion detection and protection hardware and software. OSI uses dual T1 lines for interconnection among its corporate entities. OSI also utilizes advanced virus protection and encryption technologies to ensure secure and safe operation and transfer of its data and applications. OSI also has several global and IT secure policies in place to ensure its security posture for both technology used and their internal personnel.
Interview questions with John Loo, senior director of Global IT services are below. A Contingency Plan (CP) is composed of the following:

1. Do you have a full Contingency plan (CP) in effect composed of BIA (Business Impact Analysis) ??" included in this are an Incident Response (IR), Disaster Recovery (DR) Plan and a Business Continuity (BP) plan? Do you have a Security Incident Response Team (SIRT) as well. His response was that he did not have a not have such a large encompassing plan due to the relative smallness of the company as compared to a General Electric or IBM. In fact many contend that this type of security philosophy is penny wise and foolish (Whitman & Mattord, 2010. 171). He said he had just a Disaster recovery plan which did not include an SIRT team. He said that he does not have a list of personnel that he calls from but basis his team on the immediate threat at hand. In the event of a vulnerability attack on the network, Mr. Loo would base the severity of the attack and that he himself would determine if it was just an incident or a major disaster. From there he would then determine the extra personnel that would be needed to take care of the threat. Again, no security team list is in place.
2. Do you classify, profile and describe any of the potential threats, vulnerabilities, and attacks, such denial-of-service, zombie attacks, etc., with a before, during, and after response description so that if any of these threats appear, you would have an adequate response against them? Again his response was that he did not put together such a listing profile because of the enormity and sheer number of different threats and vulnerabilities and the small size of his company. Mr. Loo also indicated that his primary fear or concern for security was simply having someone walk into an OSI facility, plant or office and plug their laptop into the network and be able to hack or password into the network and interrupt or steal company data.
3. If you Mr. Loo get sick, injured or die, who will follow into your place during an emergency? His answer was that he has back-up managerial personnel from Global IT and Telecom management to fill ??" in, in case he is absent.
4. Do you do practice or test any vulnerability attack scenarios, such as a simple desk check, structured walk-through, simulation, or full-interruption scenario, so that you know what to expect and do in a real-life situation? Mr. Loo indicated that he does not do any testing at all. It is all in his head.
5. Concerning a natural disaster within the business continuity and strategy plan, do you have a disaster recovery in place in case of a man-made or natural disaster that would destroy the corporate data center and its data? Mr. Loo indicated that he does have a back-up - a warm back-up site facility in Issaquah Washington. It is not a hot site where the company can immediately turn things on and start operating. Although all of the applications are loaded in the servers, the back-up data tapes and disks are stored in Burbank, CA and that they would have to be carried and sent over to Issaquah and then loaded into the databases and tested before operation can begin. That would take anywhere from 10 hours to 2 days for completion. If the situation was not totally disabling, he would just send the disks and tapes to the Torrance California facility and restore the servers from there. That would take less than a day.
6. Are all of the third party vendors that do business with the company on-board with back-up computing resources and services if needed? Mr. Loo indicated that he has agreements with all the vendors during an emergency or disaster but that he does not contact them frequently if at all and that he assumes that the facilities are on board with any disaster that may happen. This non-action can be very dangerous.
7. Concrning crisis management and the press, how would you handle it? He said that he will be the main point of contact for the CEO and for newspaper and TV announcements to let the public know the situation of the disaster.
8. Since OSI has a risk assessment department, are they involved at all in the assessment of a disaster to the company? He said they were not involved in this area and that all planning and assessment was done in IT.
9. What is the relationship between the organizational structure of the IT department and its relationship with the CEO, as stipulated in the organizational hierarchy chart? Mr. Loo indicated that although there is no Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) between him and the CIO, the CIO is firmly committed to obtaining the resources and expenses for fully implementing proper security within the company. Unfortunately, the CIO himself does not directly report to the CEO but to the non-technical CFO Mr. Edick and that sometimes it is very difficult to obtain additional money and resources to fully implement all of Global ITs plans for security since the company has never had an IT or security real emergency before. Although it is quite common and natural for many companies, both small and large to place their security department or group within the IT organizational structure, this is not the best place for it. Given the seriousness for destructiveness due to loss data and networks, many organizations place their security group either within Legal or Insurance and Risk Management departments. Since OSI is small it is just within the IT department. Another factor is that the CIO and CEO are brothers and that can provide for a conflict of interest. This is why the CIO does not report directly to the CEO. This conflict imperils information security. Most experts agree that the CIO or CISO should report directly to the COO or President of the company. In case they do not. See diagram.
10. What are the duties and responsibilities of the individual stakeholders (users, managers, designers, and vendors) interacting with information security and that of Critical Electronic Data? See the Critical Electronic Data Policy attachment.
11. What is OSIs Global IT Security policy? See attachment file.
12. Do you provide for advanced IT and security training for your IT employees? Yes, we have extensive online and conventional training courses for our employees, including information security.
13. Stakeholders (users, managers, and designers) interacting with information security. Mr Loo indicated that Business unit managers are responsible for enforcing IT security policy and that individual users are also responible foull following IT policy concerninguser accounts and proper use of the computer.

As defined by the U.S. General Accounting Office, a stakeholder is "an individual or group with an interest in the success of an organization in delivering intended results and maintaining the viability of the organization's products and services. Stakeholders influence programs, products, and services." (Allen, 2005) Information security planning should include the views of stakeholders, especially when you are planning for information security projects. The stakeholders buy-in is key to the success of information security in an organization. With the company's success in mind, decisions are less likely to be made based on personal beliefs when stakeholders views are considered.

Regardless of the size of the organization, it is important that security functions are perform somewhere in the organization. In chapter 13 of his Book called Information Security Roles & Responsibilities Made Easy, Charles Cresson Wood describes 12 options for placing security (listed below). But the ideal structure is to have information security independently reporting directly to the CEO. While due to budget constraints, many smaller organizations are forced to have security report to sub-organization like information technology or administrative service. In large organizations, information security is more independent and can be their own department. Note, that many laws and regulation require that security be well defined (see Table 1).

Step 6: Developing a Plan for Evaluating Outcomes- Develop outcome measures based on objectives, Specify research design to be used, Identify potential confounding factors, Identify users and uses of evaluation results, reassess the entire program/policy plan.

Step 7: Initiating the program or policy design:
Planning for failure: avoid exaggerated claims. Planning for success: ongoing reassessment learning and revision are crucial. Learning and adapting: successful interventions must adapt to change.

Task 2: The Business of Ethics Checklist

Structure: Memo (Section A) & Report (section B) or Report only?use your discretion.

Introduction:
In light of recent corporate scandals, the question has been raised whether an effective, enforced ethics program could have impacted the outcome of such massive instances of unethical corporate behavior. Because of the increased scrutiny of the actions of corporations and those who act on behalf of organizations, there has been additional attention placed on the ethical actions within organizations. Many organizations have responded to this increased scrutiny by establishing formal ethics programs to foster ethical decision making for business directors, officers, and employees. Effective ethics programs provide the opportunity for management to establish a culture that establishes ethical behavior, both inside and outside of the organization, as the business strives to eliminate unethical conduct.
Scenario:
Two weeks after you are hired as the elementary division manager by a toy company, you receive a memo from the manager of the quality assurance department. During routine testing, the quality assurance department identified a problem with one of the toys included in the elementary toy collection. The primary market for the elementary toy collection is elementary schools. A metal whistle that is included in the toy collection did not pass testing due to small traces of lead. The amount of lead included in the whistles was slightly above the U.S. legally acceptable limits for children ages 7 and younger. A large shipment of the elementary toy collection is scheduled to be shipped to schools in South America at the end of the week, just in time for the beginning of the school year. The approximate cost to reproduce the product and repackage the toy collections is $100,000.

Case Study Assessment

Task Description:
Length: 2500 words
This piece of assessment takes the form of a case study. Students will be provided with a choice of a scenario, based on one of the topic areas covered during the unit, and must prepare a written report addressing the issues raised by the scenario.


? You work as a probation and parole officer in Australia. You are asked to compile a report that explores key issues and recommend best practice for dealing with mentally ill offenders, so that your service can provide appropriate programs and support to reduce recidivism.




TASK DETAILS:
Although each topic is different, your report should be structured around the following content:

1. A concise summary of the current position and an overview of the problem

In this introductory section, you must provide a brief summary of the current position, explain how the problem arises in context, and set out the scope of your analysis. This section should contain a strong statement of your argument (supported by relevant sources). It should also provide a brief overview of any relevant law and/or departmental policy or procedure that is relevant to the topic chosen. I recommend you allocate approx. 800 words to this section.
10%

2. Critical analysis of the problem
This forms the body of your report. In this section, you need to analyse the issues to identify how/where areas of weakness or injustice arise. You will need to conduct independent research and use appropriate sources to support your analysis. Don?t just describe the issues ? analyse the strengths or weaknesses in the system that contribute to or overcome the problem. This item requires considerable thought and attention, and I would expect it to be longer and more detailed than the other sections ? allocate approx. 1200 words to this section.
15%

3. Recommendations for reform.
You should provide at least two recommendations for reform. Your recommendations should be based on your research (i.e. based on the literature available), and should be well-grounded and achievable. I recommend you allocate approx. 500 words to this section
