1. Corporate Governance Issues: IT Risk Management

Review the Week 1 readings and the assigned Case Study for background information before responding to this discussion question.

The company’s senior managers are reviewing the company’s Annual Report which will be presented at the next quarterly shareholder’s meeting. The annual report includes the following risk statements:

1. Cyber-attacks could affect our business.

2. Disruptions in our computer systems could adversely impact our business.

3. We could be liable if third party equipment recommended and installed by us, i.e. smart home controllers, fails to provide adequate security for our residential clients.

Write a two page briefing paper (five to seven paragraphs) which can be used by a member of the corporate board to explain these risks to shareholders. Provide specific examples of the types of risk events which could occur and the potential impacts (e.g. financial, reputation, client trust, etc.)

Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting.

2.Policies to Implement Regulatory Requirement

Review the Week 2 readings and the assigned Case Study for background information before responding to this discussion question.

The company’s IT Governance Board has been tasked with developing a set of policies to address IT security requirements arising from

(a) PCI-DSS (credit card and transaction information)
(b) the HIPAA Security Rule (health related information)
(c) the “Red Flags” Rule (consumer credit information: identity theft prevention).

Choose one of the three sources of regulatory requirements listed above. Write a three paragraph briefing statement which summarizes the regulatory requirements as they apply to the company’s collection, processing, management, and storage of personal information about its clients. Your briefing statement should identify the specific types of personal information which are covered by the “rule” or “standard.”

Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting.
