Must pay close attention to detail, and write proper English.

You will develop a paper that accomplishes two objectives:

1. It will identify the three top trends in the cyber security industry and your rationale for your choices based on the resources you found;
2. It will discuss an issue within one of the trends that you deem important, based on the current state of the industry, and will be supported by your analysis of facts and a well-reasoned conclusion of what it means to the industry.

Your paper will be 7 pages, 14 verifiable references, in addition a cover page and References page(s), double-spaced, and set up in APA standards.

Your headings will follow this general pattern:

• Paper Title (First level position, not bold)
• Findings (First level heading, centered, bold)

Top Trends of the Cyber Security Industry (Second level heading, bold, flush left)

An important emerging issue in a trend (and what it means in context to the industry) (Second level heading, bold, flush left)

• Conclusions (First level heading, centered, bold)
• References (New page, first level position, not bold)

STEP 1: IDENTIFY 3 TRENDS OF THE CYBER SECURITY PROFESSION

must watch video for project details: 1minute 53second clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wUzZatg7UQ

In this project, you will search for information that will enable you to identify three top trends in the "Cyber Security Profession". Over the course of the project, you will exercise information literacy skills as you locate and evaluate information, and develop well-reasoned conclusions. Reviewing the many sources available to you, you will choose those that are relevant, timely, and helpful to your quest to understand the issues of your industry. Once you have identified the top trends, you will choose one that is particularly interesting to you or one that you think is the most problematic, and research more deeply to produce an analytical research paper for your team. Your project is intended to prepare a search committee on the issue so that they are well-prepared to interview candidates. You need to produce a well-reasoned, well-supported analysis.

STEP 2: CHOOSE ONE OF THE 3 ISSUES TO FURTHER RESEARCH

In the last step, you used research to identify three top trends in your industry. That was the first part of the project. Now it is time to focus on an issue within one of those trends that you think is noteworthy in your field. This project requires that you review the trends and develop a plan to research the issue further, and synthesize the information you find into a coherent, well-supported analysis. But first, you have to develop a focused research question or statement of the problem. Consider this step similar to the starting point for solving any problem with the scientific method. You first have to identify the problem. Then, when you have researched a bit more, you will form a reasonable assumption (a hypothesis) of what you think might be a potential resolution/answer. You will look for more information that reflects different sides or viewpoints of the issue, and use analytical thinking to arrive at a well-reasoned conclusion. This conclusion may or may not bear out your original first estimate; however, your quest is to arrive at an answer that is well-supported and based on facts. Remember, your objective is to consider the impact of this issue on your industry, so this may be the first step toward a practical solution for your organization. Your research should reveal if the question has already been answered, or if there is enough information on the topic. And finally these questions must be answered: How to prepare for the change; Mitigation strategies; Tools; Policy; Techniques; and Compliance needs.

Your work will be evaluated using the competencies listed below.

1.1: Organize document or presentation clearly in a manner that promotes understanding and meets the requirements of the assignment.

1.2: Develop coherent paragraphs or points so that each is internally unified and so that each functions as part of the whole document or presentation.

1.3: Provide sufficient, correctly cited support that substantiates the writer’s ideas.

1.4: Tailor communications to the audience.

1.5: Use sentence structure appropriate to the task, message and audience.

1.6 Follow conventions of Standard Written English.

2.1: Identify and clearly explain the issue, question, or problem under critical consideration.

2.2: Locate and access sufficient information to investigate the issue or problem.

2.3: Evaluate the information in a logical and organized manner to determine its value and relevance to the problem.

2.4: Consider and analyze information in context to the issue or problem.

2.5 Develop well-reasoned ideas, conclusions or decisions, checking them against relevant criteria and benchmarks
