This discussion focuses on mapping cloud security controls to existing frameworks or regulations.

You will need to create 1 new thread AND post AT LEAST 2 comments on other students’ threads. Here’s how to get started:

Download the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Cloud Controls Matrix spreadsheet. (A quick Internet search should give you the address of the most current version for download.) Under the “Scope Applicability” heading, select a category that is applicable to the organization for which you work. For example, if your organization handle personal medical data and uses the COBIT framework, you could choose either COBIT or HIPAA/HITECH. Once you select a category, choose  row from “Control Domain” (that no other student has already selected!) Then, create a new thread in this week’s discussion with the title from column B (i.e. CCM V3.0 Control ID.) Discuss three (3) ways in which the control domain maps to your chosen scope, and specifically what your organization does to implement the stated control. State the type of your industry.

Note: Do not disclose the actual name of your organization, only the type of industry  e.g. Finance, Government e.tc

OUTLINE YOUR DISCUSSION CLEARLY WITH HEADINGS FROM THE QUESTION.

If you don’t know which scope applies to your organization, just use the University of the Cumberlands (UC) as your organization. As a university, we are under the domain of FERPA, So, is you choose UC, you would need to choose a Control Domain and explain how it maps to FERPA, and how UC implements the controls.

So, here’s an example. Let’s suppose I work for a large on-line retailer. We handle payment cards and are therefore under PCI DSS requirements. I’ll select BCR-03 control ID (Business Continuity Planning.) So I would create a new thread in this week’s discussion with the title “BCR-03.” Then I’d explain what BCR-03 is, what it maps to in PCI DSS (4.1, 4.1.1, 9.1, 9.2), and then I’d explain what my organization does to comply with this control requirement.

Once you create your new thread, you need to find AT LEAST 2 other threads from other students and comment on their threads. Make sure your comments are more than “I agree”, or “Good post.” Provide SUBSTANTIVE comments

Imagine that you work for a consulting firm that offers information technology and database services. Part of its core services is to optimize and offer streamline solutions for efficiency. In this scenario, your firm has been awarded a contract to implement a new personnel system for a government agency. This government agency has requested an optimized data repository for its system which will enable the management staff to perform essential human resources (HR) duties along with the capability to produce ad hoc reporting features for various departments. They look forward to holding data that will allow them to perform HR core functions such as hiring, promotions, policy enforcement, benefits management, and training.

Using this scenario, write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:

1. Determine the steps in the development of an effective Entity Relationship Model (ERM) Diagram and determine the possible iterative steps / factors that one must consider in this process with consideration of the HR core functions and responsibilities of the client.
2. Analyze the risks that can occur if any of the developmental or iterative steps of creating an ERM Diagram are not performed.
3. Select and rank at least five (5) entities that would be required for the development of the data repositories.
4. Specify the components that would be required to hold time-variant data for policy enforcement and training management.
5. Diagram a possible 1:M solution that will hold salary history data, job history, and training history for each employee through the use of graphical tools. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
6. Plan each step of the normalization process to ensure the 3NF level of normalization using the selected five (5) entities of the personnel database solution. Document each step of the process and justify your assumptions in the process.
7. Diagram at least five (5) possible entities that will be required to sustain a personnel solution. The diagram should include the following:
   1. Dependency diagrams
   2. Multivalued dependencies

Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.

 

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Recognize the historical development of database management systems and logical data models.
• Explain the fundamentals of how data is physically stored and accessed.
• Compose conceptual data modeling techniques that capture information requirements.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in the strategic implications and management of database systems.
• Write clearly and concisely about topics related to the strategic planning for database systems using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.
