Research question one. This question explored factors that contribute to reducing the unauthorized disclosure of NPI/PII in the public school system, as perceived by personnel who have access to the information. Arachchilage and Love (2014) stated a need for information security training to improve users’ knowledge. Twelve participants (Pamela, Laura, Susan, Angela, Anna, Erin, William, Sarah, Carol, Scott, Shawn, and Kelly) expressed the perception that formally acquainting staff with security protocols through formal training and through making information about those protocols easily accessible did or could reduce unauthorized disclosures. Beaudin (2017) stated that educating users serves as a defensive measure against security threats and according to Young (2010), exposing users who are exposed to organizational information security policies exhibit behaviors that assists in the protection of information in the organization. Bolek, Látečková, Romanová, and Korček (2016) stated that employee lack of knowledge contributes to inadequate protection of sensitive information and can lead to disclosures. …show more content…
Study results support the research by Kennedy (2016) on the effectiveness of training programs designed to educate employees assist in the prevention of security breaches. All participants underlined that the sustainment or implementation of a training program could lead to the reduction of unauthorized disclosure of information. Findings that supported taking security seriously and effective training were similar to Bulgurcu et al. (2010), Chen et al. (2015), Eminağaoğlu et al. (2009), and Meso et al. (2013). Eight participants (Laura, Susan, Angela, Erin, William, Carol, Scott, and Shawn) expressed employee training could reduce the unauthorized disclosure of
When it comes to personal information in America, the genie is out of the bottle. As such, information security will continue to be a pressing concern especially to most of our top three-letter-agencies such as the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), NSA (National Security Agency), DOD (Department of Defense), and HS (Homeland Security) as most of them are staffed with employees with top secret security clearances (also known as TS).When someone is given this clearance, not only are they slated to uphold an allegiance to core values but they are also entrusted with our nations’ sensitive secrets and are held to the highest standards. Many of these professionals are honest and loyal to their country, but all humans are susceptible to preservation, desires, and needs that the famous psychologist Maslow showed in his famous hierarchy of needs pyramid. As such, without undue temptation and trickery most handle their jobs well and uphold their commitments to quietly (sometimes loudly) dedicate their lives to patriotism.
This is simply not the case. Students who have not had the benefit of previous instruction often feel a debilitating inability to contribute (Martin, VanDycke, Greene, Gardner, Christensen, Woods, & Lovett, 2006). Without specific IEP instruction, students have no idea how to participate in IEP meetings, nor do they fully understand the purpose of their IEPs (Martin, Van Dycke, Christensen, Greene, Gardner, Woods, and Lovett, 2006). Lack of instruction, however should not be the hindrance that prevent students from participating and leading the IEP process. Students with disabilities must be taught how to direct their IEPs.
Software application development at my company was initiated first out of security concerns. There were increasing numbers of security breaches reported in hospitals, banks, Yahoo, and other places that paused potential hazards (Snyder, 2014). We are in the financial Industry with huge volumes of sensitive data. Our Information Technology department expressed concerns that our SQL server was an easy target to those that may want to hack the system. Existing security measures and periodic training were very strict but they were not enough to protect customers from hackers.
Disproportionality, in special education, is the overrepresentation or under-representation of a particular population or demographic group relative to their presence in the overall student population (Ralabate, & Klotz, 2007). There are many factors thought to contribute to disproportionality: cultural differences, lack of appropriate assessment strategies, socioeconomic status, race, and gender (Kanaitsa, 2010).
Employee training can reduce or eliminate unsafe behaviors by teaching the employees how to perform their job safely. The training needs to be specific on what the employee is expected to do (Bernardin & Russell, 2013). For instance; if an employee was lifting heavy boxes all day, they need to be taught to bend at the knees and always use both hands to prevent back injuries.
Elizabeth is a first-grader who has an intellectual disability called mental retardation; Elizabeth’s school has in place an IEP that includes her going to the special education room; where she receives highly structured reading instruction from Ms. Hackman, her special education teacher. In order to meet her least restrictive environment, Elizabeth is placed in a first grade class that is an inclusive classroom, which means that she has access to the general education curriculum as evidenced by her spending the majority of the school day in Ms. Clark’s general education classroom. She is provided assistance in her development in her speech because she is unable to talk in complete sentences; so she does receive related services including a
Imagine you are young teenage girl in the high school setting. You look the same as everyone else. Nothing on the outside appears to be abnormal. You want to be included and do everything else the other students are doing. However, you have this learning disability no one knows about except for you, your parents, the exceptional educator, and now your general education teachers. It’s not easy being different wanting to do everything the other students are doing. Well, this is why mainstreaming and inclusion are important for these students. They want to be successful like everyone else. They want to fit in. They want to go to the general education classes with everyone else. Leading up to this is why Individual Education Plans are important for these students to have a chance at normality.
In this case, a large health services organization (HSO) in Florida, that has a world-renowned AIDS treatment center had information breach of 4,000 HIV+ patient records, and the list was sent to newspapers, magazines, and the internet. Consequently, this issue was featured in every media vehicle in the world and as CEO, you are requested by the board of trustees to come up a better management information system (MIS) to resolve all information security issues or you will face termination. After hiring an undercover computer security consultant to help determine where the security leak came from, she quickly identifies numerous breaches in computer security and provides a report with the issues identified. The report furnished by the consultant revealed that facility had major problems with the MIS and the staff. In order to determine how to address the issues, the CEO must first answer the following questions: what law is being violated by the employees, why was this law enacted, what are the penalties for such violations, what are the penalties for sharing celebrity information, and should he be updating his resume and looking for another job (Buchbinder, 378).

For my visitation I went to the public high school in my hometown. Due to time constraints I was not able to visit the school on a weekday when classes were in session. I did however get to witness another part of the special education/inclusion program called the Rooster Buddies. I did, however, get some information on the special education program from an administrator via phone and fax.
Identification of a child with a learning disability can be a challenging issue, especially for parents who invest heavily on a child to ensure that he/she becomes a better person in life. The story of Ryan is one such narrative that took all involved parties some time before arriving at the conclusion that Ryan was a special child.
