Project 2: Cloud Risk and Compliance Issues Analysis
Start Here

Print Project

As an IT analyst for BallotOnline, a company providing voting solutions to a global client base, you are working to convince the organization to move the current infrastructure to the cloud.

Your supervisor and the director of IT, Sophia, has asked you to summarize for the company executives the potential risks and compliance issues that BallotOnline will have to contend with in the transition to the cloud.

The final report will be seven to 10 pages that convey your understanding and management of risks associated with cloud computing, as well as ensuring compliance with legal requirements involved in moving BallotOnline systems to the cloud.

This project will take about one weeks. Check the Project 2 FAQ thread in the discussion area for any last-minute update or clarifications about the project.

Follow these steps to access the discussion:

• Click My Tools in the top navigation bar.
• Click Discussions.
• Select the relevant discussion.

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.
• 2.1: Identify and clearly explain the issue, question, or problem under critical consideration.
• 7.1: Examine legal and regulatory requirements.
• 7.2: Examine industry best-practices and standards.
• 8.1: Assess liability issues associated with cloud adoption.
• 8.2: Assess network security and privacy risks associated with cloud infrastructure.
• 8.3: Assess management and operational risks associated with cloud.

• Discussion: post a summary of your research and recommendations to your colleagues covering the following:

  • What types of risks apply to your organization, and by extension this project?
  • Does your company have an obligation to protect personal information of customers or their customers?
  • What are the risks associated with a contracted cloud provider suffering a security breach, which exposes customers' personal information?
  • What mitigation measures could you take to protect your organization from potential liability?
  • Are there any other potential liability issues that apply to your organization?

  Your goal should be to convey this critical information to your colleagues in a concise, yet thorough manner. You and your colleagues should then engage in dialogue to provide each other with feedback. This feedback may be used to improve your summary before adapting it for your final report in the last step of Project 2.
