Should not be written in an essay format. Whole sentences and paragraphs are required where word counts are given, you can arrange your written response with headers and do not need to make formal transitions between the responses to each task.
Write thorough responses to the following questions.
Task 1: Identify two specific technologies (be specific – for example, “facial recognition” or “algorithms” are not specific technology but a particular database, a camera, a named particular algorithm, etc are) that exist within this case study. For each technology, identify two different technological affordances that exist for different people, organizations, or institutions under different conditions. These should be people, organizations, or institutions you described as stakeholders. (Bulleted list is acceptable)
stakeholders choose from following list
1. Technology Company (SoundThinking)
2. Law Enforcement Agencies (e.g., Chicago Police Department)
3. Community Members (Residents of ShotSpotter-Enabled Areas)
4. Civil Rights Organizations (e.g., ACLU, MacArthur Justice Center)
5. Media and Journalists
Task 2: Explain each affordance (make sure you use affordance verb language – what particular action does the technology request, demand, encourage, discourage, refuse, or allow?) for the type of person, organization, or institution you’ve identified and clearly articulate the conditions under which this affordance works or doesn’t work. Be as specific! (400-500 words)
Task 3: Identify parts of the system that have been black boxed and explain how this part of the system can be identified as a black box. What process is being obscured within the system? What data go into the black box and what data are returned from the black box? Which people, organizations, or institutions have access to understand this part of the system better? Which people, organizations, or institutions do not have a means to understand this part of the system better? (150words)

An IT administrator for Acme Inc., a small anvil manufacturing company, used her personal email address when creating cloud-based work accounts with CloudEmails.com for the company’s employees. However, when Acme decided to fire the administrator for unspecified issues, it discovered that she was the only one with admin access to the CloudEmails.com accounts, which included email files.
Complicating matters was the fact that Acme could not find the password on the former administrator’s computer; officials suspected that she deleted key files after she was terminated.
When the company contacted the fired administrator, she refused to provide the password credentials. CloudEmails.com, meanwhile, also refused to allow access to the files, saying that only the administrator could agree to allow access to her personal account.
What kinds of mistakes were made by the company and the administrator?

You will soon come to the end of this course, which is designed to not only prepare you to earn the CompTIA Security+ certification but also aims to equip you to mitigate risk and implement proper security safeguards to protect information and network infrastructure on the job.
One of the fastest-growing areas of the enterprise is computer network security as a result of the recent spikes in cyberattacks, which has ultimately led to the demand for skillful cybersecurity analysts. There is evidence to suggest that the global cybersecurity skills gap is no secret in the sense that several organizations today are impacted by this shortage. These are some of the reasons why taking this course and earning this certification can a gateway to enhancing your career and subsequently helping to bridge this gap.
Given this understanding and your knowledge gained in this course from week 1, participate in this discussion by responding to either one of the following questions:
How will learning from this course, and eventually earning the CompTIA security+ certification, make you more productive in the workplace? Include a summary of your potential career paths and professional interests in light of what you have learned in the course.
Meeting cybersecurity operational challenges with innovations has gained significant traction in the industry, research community, and academia due to perceived benefits. Discuss how your knowledge of state-of-the-art technologies, such as artificial intelligence or expert systems, can help you achieve your cybersecurity career expectations.

Responding to your peers, discuss the benefits and the drawbacks of implementing such a system.
PEER POST # 1
If I were a small company that has grown to need an ERP system, I would need to gather information on how the company currently functions, how the company is lacking in developing further, and what current issues are affecting our development. Once this information is gathered, recommendations can be made to enhance further the company’s growth. This would include choosing an ERP system that most benefits our needs, allows for platform scalability, allows for mobility, and lowers long-term costs (Corporation, 2023). The company should also ensure that the ERP system chosen will fit well the company structure and provide a more efficient operation process. The Enterprise Resource Planning system (ERP) I would recommend for a small company like mine to develop further is Acumatica. Acumatica is a top ERP system for small businesses. Acumatica focuses on providing a CRM to manage customer information, reporting on expense categories, accounting software, and cloud ERP (Blaney, 2024). Furthermore, Acumatica has several features to help further develop a small company into a much larger one; however, just like many other ERP systems, it can be costly to implement.
PEER POST # 2
There are many considerations when looking into new ERP systems, but the first should be budget, usability, and scalability, followed by the usual, who is the system designed for, what is the goal, and timeline. The most important step before finalizing the decision should be verifying that the new system is able to support the needs of the organization and is something that will improve the user’s ability to complete their job, if the new software or system is unable to complete the necessary tasks or has a very steep learning curve, additional actions may be needed. As stated in a U.S. Chamber of Commerce article, “An ERP system affects every part of your operations. Involving managers from accounting, human resources (HR), inventory, and sales helps leaders understand pain points and mission-critical tasks” (Elliott, 2024), they should have comprehensive knowledge of their department’s duties upon being selected to prevent delays during later implementation.
We recently moved to using Microsoft Dynamics Business Central for finance purposes, and I agree with many others, Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a very useful ERP for small businesses and can be scaled fairly easily with a managed process. The actual cost to transition was low (only higher due to outsourcing the build and automation) so many businesses could afford it. It is fairly customizable, so reducing the amount of visual noise and unneeded content can make it highly accessible to less skilled users. Lastly, it appears to be highly scalable, though in large organizations, with higher budgets, it may be better to opt to a more structured or in-house set-up. Despite being very effective, it does seem to have some connectivity issues with busier times.
