You are working for a national clothing chain. Several of the buyers have been having a lot of problems obtaining well-designed reports from your organization’s sales and marketing departments on their activities by state over the past year. They want to be able to create reports as needed and access them anytime, anywhere. The buyers need this knowledge to help them plan future purchases and think that a knowledge management system would help improve the retrieval of information from the company’s data warehouse. You have been asked to research KM software packages and to report back to your colleagues. View a list of the top 10 KM software packages at the Capterra website (List of the top 10 KM software packagesLinks to an external site.). Choose at least three KM software tools from the list and go to their websites and take the demo. Write a report describing and comparing the KM tools that you demoed. Discuss the pros and cons of each of them and identify your favorite. Explain your choice.
Your paper should be in APA format and 3-4 pages, not counting the title page and reference pages. Make sure you have in-text citations and a reference page. 

The next part of your training manual will focus on network scanning and assessment. The goal of running a vulnerability scanner or conducting an external vulnerability assessment is to identify devices on your network that are open to known vulnerabilities without compromising your systems. Continue the development of your training manual with an overview of the assigned topic and a summary of functions and capabilities. Demonstrate your implementation with corresponding screenshots from your labs (when applicable).
Prompt
Now it is time to create your training manual section on network scanning and assessment. This process may involve automated and manual techniques with varying degrees using a risk-based approach. Continue using the Training Manual Template document to develop the section on network scanning and assessment.
For each section of the training manual, develop guidelines for employees to select and employ specific software, tools, and methods to address the elements of the section topic. Your guidelines serve as recommendations of specific tools and criteria for determining when to use these tools.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Illustrate the processes of detecting rogue devices, detecting malicious connections, and viewing network topologies to identify network weakness.
Explain how to interpret the output of network scans to identify weaknesses.
What to Submit
Fill in Section Five of the Training Manual Template document. This section contains two main parts with additional subtopics related to detecting intrusions. This section should address best practices and tools and methodologies for scanning your network and assessing its security. For this assignment, you must follow these formatting guidelines: 12-point Times New Roman font and APA references and citations.

 Personal factors, such as anger, revenge, and lack of rewards and recognition, may increase the risk of someone stealing from or spying against employees. Organizations should apply adequate security screening to select new employees, as well as providing a reward and recognition system to motivate employees and increase morale.
Review the recent insider theft cases PDF. Analyze your findings about one identified thief. How can you learn from your chosen thief to acknowledge and recognize the motives and behavioral indicators that someone might be spying against the company you work for?

Increasingly, network scanning is becoming a cyclic process, primarily due to a finite amount of time to perform a network security assessment exercise. Until you test your systems from every possible angle, you simply cannot say with reasonable certainty just where things stand with security. The end goal of a successful network scan is locating rogue devices and malicious connections on the network to determine if they present a threat. For your main post, identify one of the items listed below and provide a high-level overview of the scanning process you would apply in completing a network scan for this situation. Be sure you address the scanning process, describe what you are looking for, and conclude with a summary of actions that need to be considered if a rogue device or malicious connection is detected.
User device tracking on a local area network
Unsecured/open WI-FI
Open port detection
Bluetooth devices
Mobile/wireless devices

 
Overview
In order to successfully manage risk, one must understand risk itself and the assets at risk. The way one goes about managing risk will depend on what needs to be protected, and from what to protect it.
Instructions
Write a 3-4 page paper in which you:
Discuss at least three rationales for performing an information systems security risk assessment.
Explain the differences in quantitative, qualitative, and hybrid information systems risk assessment and illustrate the conditions under which each type is most applicable.
Describe the type of information that is collected to perform an effective information systems security risk assessment. Include at least three different types. Fully describe each and justify why you made your selections.
Describe at least five common tasks that should be performed in an information systems security risk assessment.
Use at least two quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources. The Strayer University Library is a good source for resources.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all supports. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:
Evaluate risk analysis methodologies to determine the optimal methodology based on needs, advantages, and disadvantages.
