9-2-Discussion-TJX-Computer-Intrusion

Topic Statement

key on computer keyboard depicting discussion forum

There are plenty of case studies and material regarding the TJX breach that occurred in 2007. “In January 2007, TJX reported that it had suffered from a computer intrusion. The company was not sure of the identity of the perpetrators nor of how many customers were affected. A deeper analysis revealed that the intrusion had started earlier and affected more customers than previously thought. Ensuing investigations concluded that TJX was collecting unnecessary information, keeping it for too long and employing obsolete and insufficient safeguards. TJX denied any wrongdoing but implemented most of the recommended remedies to strengthen their security,” (source: CasePlace.org). (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

  • How do you think such a breach would be handled any differently now (in North America).
  • Do you think the breach would be handled any differently in other areas such as Europe, China, Australia, Brazil, etc.?

Purpose of Assignment

Electronic spreadsheets are useful tools, especially when creating a business budget. Once a spreadsheet is set up correctly in Excel®, values can be modified at any time, and the electronic spreadsheet will automatically update itself. Students will create a spreadsheet of computing equipment for a small fictional business where they are the owner. They will include the cost of all hardware and software needed for their employees, and calculate a budget for the equipment.

Assignment Steps

Resources:

  • Research hardware and software to satisfy operational requirements described above
  • Microsoft Office 365, Office 2016: Introductory: Module 1: Creating a Worksheet and a Chart
  • Microsoft Office 365, Office 2016: Introductory: Module 2: Formulas, Function, and Formatting

Scenario: Imagine you are the owner of a small fictional business where you employ five people. You need to budget for the cost of hardware and software needed to run company operations. Each employee is required to work both in the business and remotely, and needs access to company data at all times.

Choose the hardware and software that will provide your employees with the ability to stay connected to internal company data, communicate and collaborate with coworkers, and process data and information using word processing and spreadsheet software applications.

Create a business budget sheet using Microsoft® Excel®. In the budget sheet, do the following:

  • List the make and model of desired computing devices and their cost.
  • List software applications for each device and their costs.
  • Sum up the cost for both computing devices and software applications for each employee.
