Democratic National Convention Information Assurance Research Paper

  You have been brought in as the Chief Information Assurance Officer (CIAO) for DNC. Yoo need to create a set of IA policies and procedures to reduce the risk of internal proprietary information being compromised. Your initial deliverable will be a report about what happened, some of the apparent consequences of the breach, and policies and procedures to be put in place to reduce the likelihood of future breaches. 1. Assume that this report will be submitted to your boss. Your continued employment depends on the objectivity, and thoroughness of your investigation. 2. With those self preservation ideas in mind; There should be: (a) A background section outlining the types of company intellectual properties, and strategic alliances. (b) A summary of what happened. (c) What were the consequences of what happened. (d) How will you ensure that it won’t happen again. 3. This report does not deal with the ethical, moral, or legal issues of the breach and public disclosure. The report is for DNC internal use only, and deals strictly with IA issues. The content of internal and external data and communication, and how such things were used, is not part of the report. Because this a current topic, and not all data will be available at the time of the report, you may use a certain amount of creative license when writing the report.
