...Security Considerations for Pro Trans Brian Smith CMGT/400 July 27, 2015 Professor Iwona Rusin Security Considerations for Pro Trans To identify any of the vulnerabilities that may be associated with Pro Trans, I would first conduct a detailed risk analysis report that would include data related to variable aspects of the business. First, all of the possible risks will need to be evaluated. How those risks are being controlled will need to be assessed. It will be important to identify any assets that belong to the company that can be tampered with or stolen. The past and possible threats will also need to be documented. Simulated attacks can provide information on the possible impact they would have on the company. This data includes SLE or Single Loss Expectancy rating and an Annualized Loss Expectancy rating with monetary values for both. How much control the company has over specific and general attacks is important also. This data will reveal how safe the system truly is. Conducting interviews with each department staff leader will also be a key step in assessing risk. This would give a general idea of how day-to-day operations are run, how many employees have access to the system, and how many remote locations they have. Since the servers used for data storage are connected to the same network as the servers used for software and Internet programs, there is a serious risk when using web components. For example, all of the employees in the accounting department...

The CID investigates allegations within the United States Army. The command does not charge individuals with crimes. Official findings of each investigation are given to the appropriate command and/or legal authority for disposition and adjudication. Exclusive jurisdiction belongs to the CID in the investigation of all felony level crimes except for national security crimes such as treason or espionage. The United States Army Conterintelligence agency has jurisprudence over the investigation of national security crimes. There are six CID commands, 3rd MP Group, 6th MP Group, 202nd MP Group, 701st MP Group, US Army Criminal Investigation, Laboratory and US Army Crime Records Center. The organization has fewer than 3,000 soldiers and civilians worldwide, of which approximately 900 are special agents.

...and also consistently stimulate the economy. Without these regulations the competition levels between companies would be so stiff that it could possibly entice the market to gradually move away from the capitalistic market that we enjoy today. Although Thomas W. Dunfee states, "Since the goal of the public corporation is to maximize shareholder wealth, management should take any action necessary to achieve this goal so long as no law is violated", is very true for many corporations this line of thinking does not apply to the United States Military. The Armed Forces have long been regarded by some as the largest organization in the United States. The goal of this organization is not profit or personal gain, rather to insure national security and undisputable freedom. Being of a nation founded on principles that promote both infinite dignity and self-worth, military personnel must always stand ready to carry out these principles. Major corporations expect the maximizing of profit and the U.S Military is no different in that aspect. However the profit being sought as far as the military is concerned is long lasting freedom. Freedom not only for the present citizens but also for the future generations to come is the ultimate goal. Two long asked questions are, what are ethics and how do they play a role as it pertains to decision making within an organization? Are...
