Hi there,

I want you please to answer this assignment.
the subject in )Information Systems Security)
The assignment has 2 questions , and I would like you to answer both of them.
this is the assignment:

Question 1:
What is a policy? How is it different from a law?

Question 2:
If an organization has three information assets to evaluate for risk management, as shown in the accompanying data, which vulnerability should be evaluated for additional controls first? Which one should be evaluated last?
Data for Exercise 1:
Switch L47 connects a network to the Internet. It has two vulnerabilities: it is susceptible to hardware failure at a likelihood of 0.2, and it is subject to an SNMP buffer overflow attack at a likelihood of 0.1. This switch has an impact rating of 90 and has no current controls in place. You are 75 percent certain of the assumptions and data.
Server WebSrv6 hosts a company Web site and performs e-commerce transactions. It has a Web server version that can be attacked by sending it invalid Unicode values. The likelihood of that attack is estimated at 0.1. The server has been assigned an impact value of 100, and a control has been implanted that reduces the impact of the vulnerability by 75 percent. You are 80 percent certain of the assumptions and data.
Operators use an MGMT45 control console to monitor operations in the server room. It has no passwords and is susceptible to unlogged misuse by the operators. Estimates show the likelihood of misuse is 0.1. There are no controls in place on this asset; it has an impact rating of 5. You are 90 percent certain of the assumptions and data.

Please follow the instructions.
Thanks

Choose a country other than your own. Identify and describe some of the major elements that were reported in this week’s web Hofstede reading. How do you think such elements would compare within your own country? Provide specific examples of how leadership practices in your country differ from that of your chosen country.

Optional Resources
• Course Text: Frankfort-Nachmias, C., & Nachmias, D. (2008) Research methods in the social sciences (7th ed.). New York: Worth.
Chapter 6, “Research Designs: Cross-Sectional and Quasi-Experimental Designs”

Course Text: Campbell, D. T., & Stanley, J. C. (1963). Experimental and quasi-experimental designs for research. Boston: Houghton Mifflin.

This textbook describes a variety of research designs, including pre-experimental designs, true experimental designs, quasi-experimental designs, and correlational and ex post facto designs. Although reading the entire textbook in one week may seem daunting, this book is a reprint of one chapter of a larger text and is quite manageable. You will use this information from this text for the Discussion and Applicatio

Paper Details:
Due date 12/4/15

Writing an Introduction for the Final Project
In this Application, you will complete the first step of your quantitative research proposal, which is your Final Project for this course. You will begin your research proposal by writing a thorough introduction.
To prepare for this Application:
• Review the Campbell and Stanley text, Experimental and Quasi-Experimental Designs for Research.
• Review the Final Project Description handout provided in this week’s Learning Resources.
• Consider the focus of the quantitative research you would like to propose for this course, your personal interests, and the designs presented in Campbell and Stanley.
The assignment:
• Craft 3-paragraph introduction for your final project that includes the following components:
• The background of the problem
• A brief problem statement
• The purpose of the study
Note: Other elements listed in the handout, such as the Literature Review, Operational Definitions, and Assumptions, will be developed in later Applications and as such are not required elements in this Application.

Re-word title to be best matching the level of a phd proposal:
Examine the partnerships and projects Education above all and Protect Education in Insecurity and Conflict organisations are involved in and research the importance of education to sustain peace in post war conflicts by continuing education during conflict and building education strategies which prevent conflict and develop long term peace at a grassroots level.
There needs to be research into what organisations this ngo works with, projects they have been involved in, and importantly, theory on the importance of education in conflict zones and post conflict, how it helps in areas: psychologically, socially, development and sustainable peace.
Attached it also some documents which needs to be cited and/or included. Also there is information on the website: http://educationandconflict.org/
As a subsidiary of Education above all and the Qatar Foundation.

Research methods.
Please offer a range of research methods that are related to and needed for such a proposal.
I have access to the organisation to conduct interviews, surveys and also work with the partners of the ngo at all levels to get data due to working for the Qatar Government.
Field work with organisations on the ground and case studies of previous work of other charities: this needs to be looked into, mainly United Nations and work related to the Qatar Foundation and its subsidiary charities.

The proposal should follow the below structure in order:

Introduction
This section is a broad setting of the scene for your research and can therefore be relatively short:

What, in general, is the research about?
Why, in general terms, is it academically important or interesting?
What are the broad research questions your research is setting out to answer?
Literature review
This should be a substantial part of the proposal as it locates your proposed research in its theoretical and empirical context:

What other research has been conducted which has directly or indirectly attempted to address your research questions?
What is the theoretical basis of this research? How sound is this theoretical basis?
How has theory developed in this field? Where is it heading?
What methods have been used? What are the limitations of these methods?
What are the unanswered questions in the field? How can your work make a contribution to the field? What is original about what you want to do?
Clear statement of research questions
What are the questions you wish to address?
Why are they important and interesting?
How do they relate to the published literature discussed above?
Are your questions answerable?
Methods
What, in broad terms, are the data collection methods which are likely to be used?
What types of data should be collected?
How will this be done?
What are the problems of collecting these types of data?
How will access be gained to participants and organizations?
What kind of design will be use?
How many studies will be conducted, and why?
In what ways do the methods and design answer your research questions?
Analysis
What, in general terms, will be done with the data you collect?
What kinds of analytical techniques is it likely you will use?
What are their limitations?
How will these analyses address and answer the research questions?
Timetable
While it is difficult to specify with certainty the course of the research it is helpful to indicate how you see your work developing and the timescales involved.
(it will be a part time phd so therefore spaced over 4-5 years)
