review the RFP’s description of the client’s current IT security policy framework. Then, review the RFP’s technical description of what changes are requested.
IS4799: Unit 3 Assignment 1: RFP Technical Requirements and
Differences from Existing Controls
© ITT Educational Services Page 1
Learning Objectives and Outcomes
You will learn how to identify the differences between the description of the Request for Proposal (RFP)
of the client’s current information technology (IT) security policy framework and the environment that will
be the result of the work requested in the RFP. After identifying differences, you will learn how to create a
report that documents any gaps.
Assignment Requirements
In this assignment, you need to review the RFP’s description of the client’s current IT security policy
framework. Then, review the RFP’s technical description of what changes are requested. Compare these
two descriptions and prepare a list of differences where existing controls do not provide the desired level
of protection. Each difference is a gap in the client’s current IT security policy framework.
You will be graded on your ability to analyze the client’s current IT security policy framework as described
in the RFP and identify any gaps that exist between the existing framework and the desired final
framework. You should be able to correlate the gaps with work that must be accomplished to satisfy the
RFP. At a high level, the gap analysis provides a list of specific objectives that a firm’s proposal will
address to satisfy the RFP.

After reading Genesis 1:1-31, reflect on each of these key aspects of God’s creative process. Then, analyze how each of these four elements function within God’s creation of the world.
In our textbook, Echoes of Eden (2013), Jerram Barrs explores a key idea from another scholar, Daniel Loizeaux: the consideration of creativity under four categories:
1. Perfection
2. Diversity
3. Profusion
4. Inventiveness
After reading Genesis 1:1-31, reflect on each of these key aspects of God’s creative process. Then, analyze how each of these four elements function within God’s creation of the world. Present a minimum of one specific example from the passage to support your analysis of each element.
Page length requirement: 2-3 pages.

Based on recent case law, do you think that Todd’s arguments possess any merit? Please be sure to specifically discuss recent case law and how it affects Todd’s case.
Todd Patterson, a 33-year-old husband and father, is a proud gun owner who has multiple handguns, shotguns, and two automatic weapons. In this case an automatic weapon is defined as a firearm that continuously fires so long as the user presses the trigger and there is ammunition in the gun.
Todd has no criminal record. When he was 17 years old, after losing both his parents in a plane crash, he had a mental breakdown resulting in a six-month institutionalization. Todd lives in the fictitious state of Varneyland where he works as a social studies teacher and soccer coach at a local high school.
On a sunny morning in a neighboring state, a man with a history of mental illness enters an elementary school and kills 3 teachers and 10 students with an automatic assault rifle. In response to this shooting, many states across the country, including Varneyland, pass legislation requiring the registration of all automatic weapons. As part of the registration process, those seeking to register their automatic weapons are required to submit to a mental health background check.
In filling out the application to register his automatic weapon, Todd reveals his prior institutionalization, but also states that he has not had any mental health issues since he was a teenager. When the state of Varneyland conducts Todd’s mental health background check, it uncovers that Todd had a diagnosis of major depression with suicidal tendencies. Todd’s mental health records also reveal a history of self-harm.
Based on the review of Todd’s mental health records, Varneyland denies Todd’s application to register his automatic weapons and sends Todd a letter demanding that he forfeit his automatic weapons or risk criminal and civil penalties. Because Todd refuses to hand over his automatic weapons, the state police arrest him and charge him with possession of an unregistered automatic weapon (a felony crime under Varneyland law).
At his criminal trial, Todd argues that the registration requirements and his subsequent arrest are violations of his Second Amendment rights.
Based on recent case law, do you think that Todd’s arguments possess any merit? Please be sure to specifically discuss recent case law and how it affects Todd’s case.
Please note that the recent 2nd Amendment case law is described in the Week 4 Content section of the classroom.
Please note that your answers have nothing to do with your personal feelings, thoughts or experiences with these issues. Your answers are to be based purely on the law, specifically precedent set by case law
Written assignment on automation (2500 to 3500 words), What is your personal philosophy about firms using automation without regard to its impact on society?
a) What is your personal philosophy about firms using automation without regard to its impact on society?
b) What type of a political and economic system do you think might be best suited for a society where automation can provide the bulk of people’s needs? What about Bill Gates’ suggestion on taxing robot output? Keep in mind that robots do not consume (assuming they are not sentient in the way humans are) and that demand for products comes from people with the ability to pay.
c) As automation reduces the importance of labor cost as a basis for competitive advantage (and perhaps eliminates it), how do you think the global competitiveness landscape for manufacturing will change?
d) Finally, how may cultural (e.g. Hofstede’s dimensions) and ethical factors (e.g. Utilitarian) moderate the rate of adoption of these types of technologies in different countries. Data at moralmachine.mit.edu may be helpful.
Create Department. Collect all information about a department. Make sure the department ID does not already exist in the array containing Department objects. If it does not, then insert the Department object into the array. When the array is full, display the error message to the user “The array is full, you can not add any more departments”
Write a program to allow the user to:
1. Create two classes. Employee and Departments.
The Department class will have: DepartmentID, Departmentname, DepartmentHeadName.
The Employee class will have employeeID, emploeename, employeesalary, employeeage, employeeDepartmentID.
Both of the above classes should have appropriate constructors, accessor methods.
2. Create two arrays . One for Employee with the size 7 and another one for Department with the size 3.
Your program should display a menu for the user to do the following:
1. Create Department. Collect all information about a department. Make sure the department ID does not already exist in the array containing Department objects. If it does not, then insert the Department object into the array. When the array is full, display the error message to the user “The array is full, you can not add any more departments”
2. Create Employee. Collect all information about an Employee. Make sure the Employee ID does not already exist in the array containing Employee objects. If it does not, then insert the Employee object into the array. Also make sure that the DepartmentID that the employee belongs also exists.
When the array is full, display the error message to the user “The array is full, you can not add any more Employees”
3. Write the data to the file. When the user selects this option, dump the information in each array into a separate file. Do not write to the file until the arrays are full.
4. Retrieve data from file. When user selects this option, open each file, load the data from the file into the appropriate array.
5. Display Report: When user selects this option, go through arrays and display the total salary paid for each department.
6. Put the above options in loop until the user want to exit the program.
Experimental Hypoxia
Healthcare&Medicine
Please read both PPT and manual carefully. Most of the answers can be found in the PPT Slides and Experiment Manual. Mice survival time can be found at the end PPT Slides. However, if you can’t find the information, you may search on the internet. No word limit but you can write around 100 words for each question. Answers must have medical/scientific evidence to support your argument. References no needed.
Questions
1. BLANK – THERE IS NO QUESTION 1
2. In each hypoxia model, what is the difference in the color of mouse’s tail, ears, lip, mucosa, and blood? Why Medically?
3. In the hypotonic hypoxia experiment, is there any difference in the survival time of the two mice and the content of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the respective hypoxic bottles? Why Medically? (Hint: Soda Lime – Absorb Carbon Dioxide. Glass Beads – Mice will exhale carbon dioxide – Prevents Carbon Dioxide Poisoning)
4. In the sodium nitrite poisoning hypoxia experiment, is there any difference in survival time between the two mice? Why Medically? (Hint: Methylene Blue – Ferrous Ion to Ferric Ion. Saline – mixture of sodium chloride and water)
5. What might be the difference in the response of neonatal and adult mice to a decrease in PaO2 in inhaled air? Why Medically? (Hint: Anesthetics – Metabolic activity much lower. Normal Adult – inhale more oxygen. Why baby mouse is more tolerance to hypoxia?)
6. What is the difference in the hypoxia tolerance of mice at different temperature (low temperature, high temperature)? Why Medically? (Hint: Cold/Low Temp. Survive much longer).
7. What is the difference between hypoxia tolerance in awake and anesthetized mice? Why Medically?
Create a PowerPoint presentation (minimum of 10 slides) on how to overcome communication barriers—verbal and nonverbal (identify and explain with supported data and illustrations).
Instructions
Self-esteem in the work environment is crucial to the overall success of everyday business operations and functions for the employee and employer; therefore, it is important to identify healthy self-esteem development and how to overcome communication barriers. Create a PowerPoint presentation (minimum of 10 slides) on how to overcome communication barriers—verbal and nonverbal (identify and explain with supported data and illustrations). You must use at least two sources with one being the textbook. Be sure to cite any sources used in a reference slide with proper APA formatting. The cover and reference slides do not count toward the total slide requirement. Also, use the speaker notes function to explain the content in detail for each of the slides. Note: Keep in mind the 6×6 PowerPoint rule: slides should only include six to seven lines of content with no more than six to seven words per line. Also, illustrations should relate to the content being discussed—be creative.
