Analysis Memorandum
Introduction
This is an analysis memorandum proposing the use of Microsoft Access databases within our Security Division’s infrastructure. Many security managers are relying heavily on the use of Microsoft Excel spreadsheets in order to keep track of their personnel, security violations, inspection programs and training. While spreadsheets are effective means for complex calculations they are also limited in that they basically fall short in showing the relational qualities of security data in relationship to particular fields and queries. Not only do they fall short in relational quality, but they are also very difficult query in order for the user to locate particular records without having to go through entire spreadsheet.
Since the success of our jobs and National Security rely heavily on the maintenance and tracking of personnel security clearance information, information security information and industrial security information, what better way of achieve our goals then to develop a relational database which can track and monitor the progress of these three area disciplines. Microsoft Access is a relational database allowing for the quick analysis and retrieval of vital security information. Capron (2000) defines a relational database as, “A relational database organizes data in a table format consisting of related rows and columns” (p.404). Since all of the computers used in our security division are personal computers, it only seems logical to implement a relational database in order to manage our critical and sensitive security data. Nickerson (2001) supports the need for a relational database to effectively manage data on a personal computer by stating, “Almost all common personal computer database programs use the relational approach” (p.80). There are many benefits in using Microsoft Access. We will discuss some of them in this analysis.
User Friendly
Microsoft Access is a user friendly application software database. According to Microsoft ® Corporation (2004), “Access version 2002 extends this versatility by giving developers and more experienced users new functionality, enabling them to access and analyze their important data as well as build powerful new database solutions. At the same time, Access now makes it easy for beginning users to discover and use more of the existing application” (no pg). This means Microsoft Access application software has something to offer for everybody, from the experienced programmer to the first-time database user. With the programs numerous tutorials, along with the Help Menu, wizards and Office Assistant, one can quickly and easily find solutions to most any database need, problem or concern.
Both passages concern the same topic, the Okefenokee Swamp. Yet, through the use of various techniques, the depictions of the swamp are entirely different. While Passage 1 relies on simplicity and admiration to publicize the swamp, Passage 2 uses explicitness and disgust to emphasize the discomfort the swamp brings to visitors.
The Midwest: land of TV news anchors, housewives, and dreary, never-ending fields. In her memoir “The Horizontal World”, Debra Marquart uses interesting rhetorical techniques to detail this vast, distinctly uninteresting plain. By using unusual figurative language, outside examples to solidify her points, and a geometric extended metaphor, she paints a picture of perhaps the most boring place on Earth.
“I Stand Here Ironing” by Tillie Olsen, is a story about a mother's struggle to balance the demands of raising children and having to work to make ends meet during the Great Depression. The story’s primary focus is on the relationship between the narrator, a mother, and her first child, Emily. Throughout the story, the narrator reflects on the decisions and mistakes she made while raising Emily. The narrator was detached from Emily almost completely during her younger years, but she desires an emotional connection to her, like she has with her other children. She also wants Emily to have a better life than she had.
To Kill a Mockingbird, the novel by Harper Lee embodies a work of Southern literature, set in the 1930s in a small town in Alabama. The book’s genre exemplifies a coming-of-age historical fiction story. The narrator, a young girl named Scout Finch, describes the lessons she and her brother Jem learn when their father, a lawyer named Atticus, defends an African American man who stands accused of raping a white woman. The novel’s premise revolves around the efforts of a father raising his children and guiding them in their moral development. Along the way, the book deals with the themes of courage, prejudice and maturity. These three concepts are defined differently by Atticus than by most of the other people in the town where he lives. According to Atticus, courage means doing what remains as right and resisting what remains as wrong, even if other people oppose you. In contrast to the prejudice of the townspeople, Atticus believes it important to treat everyone equally. Maturity, in Atticus’ view, refers to having a sense of conscience and seeking to protect those who remain innocent. As these definitions show, Atticus Finch displays a strong sense of ethics. His goal as a parent remains to pass his values on to his children. This paper will argue that Scout and Jem learn the true meanings of courage, prejudice and maturity through the influence of their father and the example he sets for them.
Edward Joseph Snowden is a former CIA technician, Booz Allen Hamilton's former employee, and a former NSA defense contractor. Edward Snowden had leaked a secret of NSA through an interview with Glenn Greenwald from The Guardian which startled the world. In his disclosure, Snowden revealed about NSA that they are mining data works all along and secretly monitoring U.S. citizens' personal information by accessing through different servers.
The symbolism and imagery used in the short stories paints a vivid picture into the author’s train of thought. Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Shirley Jackson were not normal writers. The stories are a form of gothic writing. This paper will be analyzing the point of view, symbolism, and setting in the stories The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and The Lottery by Shirley Jackson.
Have you ever wonder what the twisted mind that could make something like death seem fun, well Tim Burton does exactly that in Edward Scissorhand and Charlie and the chocolate factory. Tim Burton loves setting a dark, gloomy mood he also tends to use a lot reality vs. fantasy in Edward Scissorhands and in Charlie and the chocolate factory. The element Tim Burton uses in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Edward Scissorhands uses makes a very dark and eerie mood. Burton uses low key lighting and close-ups in Edward Scissorhands and in Charlie and chocolate factory to achieve a dark, gloomy, and eerie mood to show the emotion, thoughts, and feelings building up in the characters and to give you a suspense and suspension like mood in the scene.
The standard for outrageous conduct according to Section 46 comment d in the Restatement is “one in which the recitation of facts to an average member of the community would arouse his resentment against the actor, and lead him to exclaim, ‘Outrageous’”. Comments e and f in Section 46 further elaborate on conditions considered for outrageous conduct:
It is critically important that ABC Healthcare have a policy to secure data files and prevent exposure to malware, and data theft in order to comply with industry audit requirements. To meet HIPAA, SOX and PCI DSS regulatory compliance standards, log data needs to be collected, stored, analyzed and monitored. The Sarbanes-Oxley act compliance requires ABC Healthcare to establish and maintain an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting and an assessment of how data is logged and audited. HIPAA’s focuses on the protection of data privacy and security rules. Furthermore, the standard requires that ABC Healthcare have a secured IT infrastructure and strategies to protect against emergence situations such as threats or
...in order to properly secure the restricted data contained within the system. The software development team carefully explains the danger of compromised data both in the form of a technologically proficient employee along with the potentially greater and more damaging theft of data perpetrated by online hackers. Financial loss due to inadequate data storage and security is also explained to the client. The goal of this explanation is the realization that an increased preliminary investment may ultimately be significantly less expensive than a breach of an insecure system. In the event the client is unable or unwilling to modify the structure of the system, the recommended course of action is for the software development team to decline implementation of the system with consideration to the consequent damage to the repute of the software development organization.
According to Former Secretary of State Dean Acheson, a memorandum is meant to protect the writer instead of being issued to inform the reader. I believe that the quote by Former Secretary of State Dean Acheson is not accurate. This statement creates ambiguity because the primary purpose why the writer issues a memorandum is to inform the reader. If the purpose is just to protect the writer and not to inform the reader, just for the sake of issuance, then such memo is of no use. However, this paper seeks to discuss the relevance of both—a memorandum is intended to inform the reader and it is also used to protect the writer.
This paper will also discuss the management of the software, how the software was chosen, and how multiple independent entities share information across the spectrum. Further, this paper will discuss how employees are trained on the system, what security is in place to
I am writing this letter in the hope of working for Farrar Straus & Giroux as an editorial assistant. I have been well aware of FSG’s excellence in publishing books that have shaped the landscape of American literature, in connection to marginal yet transformative memory of writers in and outside America. And I believe that my education, skills, experience and character displayed in this application would suffice to join FSG’s continuing projects of doing justice to the liveliest works emerging at the crossroad of literary legacy, conflicting cultural reflections and writerly inventions in this liberating era of literature and its spirit of reconfiguring literary canons.
Inconsistently storing organization data creates a lot of issues, a poor database design can cause security, integrity and normalization related issues. Majority of these issues are due to redundancy and weak data integrity and irregular storage, it is an ongoing challenge for every organization and it is important for organization and DBA to build logical, conceptual and efficient design for database. In today’s complex database systems Normalization, Data Integrity and security plays a key role. Normalization as design approach helps to minimize data redundancy and optimizes data structure by systematically and properly placing data in to appropriate groupings, a successful normalize designed follows “First Normalization Flow”, “Second Normalization Flow” and “Third Normalization flow”. Data integrity helps to increase accuracy and consistency of data over its entire life cycle, it also help keep track of database objects and ensure that each object is created, formatted and maintained properly. It is critical aspect of database design which involves “Database Structure Integrity” and “Semantic data Integrity”. Database Security is another high priority and critical issue for every organization, data breaches continue to dominate business and IT, building a secure system is as much important like Normalization and Data Integrity. Secure system helps to protect data from unauthorized users, data masking and data encryption are preferred technology used by DBA to protect data.
Some faculties and departments are already using Oracle applications in their day-to-day operations. As time goes by, more and more information users will be working with an application based on Oracle database technology. If you get the opportunity to be a member of an application development team, you will become familiar with the workings of Oracle and relational databases. Other users may have to learn about this popular database management system through their own experience. This article is for our readers who, as of yet, have no access to Oracle databases but have a yearning for learning what they're all about.
