Instructions

Using the organization that you selected for Week 7, the resources for Week 8, and extended exploration for this assignment, construct an integrated strategic cybersecurity approach that you can present to the board of your selected organization.

Pay particular attention to including current needs plus an emphasis on a strategy that could optimize outcomes for the next five years. Consider changes in the use of information, products, processes, people, external parties, changes in information assets, threats, and vulnerabilities. Also, consider changes in the nature of the organization. Your objective is not to describe in detail all of these changes, but to incorporate the results of these changes within your strategic cybersecurity approach. The focus is on the integrated nature of these diverse influences. You would provide the detail of your approach, supported by citations, and brief details regarding the changes and current needs. Emphasize the integrated strategy rather than the granular detail of technology and related items. Your use of critical thinking and synthesis would be important elements in your success.

Provide a PowerPoint presentation for the board of your selected organization. Design your content to be highly organized and appropriate for delivery to a board meeting. Prepare for a verbal presentation in front of the board. Be sure to design your slides to be appropriate for your target audience in terms of content and avoid having too much content on the slides. Include pertinent images and tables that you have created.

References: Your presentation requires support at least 12 scholarly sources published within the last five years from the NCU Library. You may add additional quality sources from the NCU Library or the Internet.

Length: Provide a title slide, objectives slide, 20 to 24 slides of content, a conclusion slide, and slides for your references. Either (a) narrate your presentation by recording your voice using PowerPoint or another accessible format and add brief bullets plus citations to the speaker notes portion of your content slides or (b) if you do not submit a recording, provide no less than 200 words of quality content and citations to each content slide.

Your assignment should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University's Academic Integrity Policy.
