Assignment: Challenges and Security Issues

Length: 5-6 pages

Assignment Description

Complete the following for this assignment:

• Compare and contrast the management information systems (MIS) in place in 2 distinctly different organizations.
• Compare each organization's use of information systems to help manage internal operations and to make decisions.
• Assess how these two organizations use information technology for competitive advantage.
• Appraise the individual and organizational consequences of the use of information technology, and recognize potential security breaches and computer crimes.

Present your findings in a Word document of 5-6 body pages formatted in APA style.

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:

• Title page: Remember the running head. The title should be in all capitals.

• Abstract: A summary of your paper, not an introduction. Begin writing in third-person voice.

• Body: The body of your paper begins on the page following the title page and abstract page and must be double-spaced (be careful not to triple- or quadruple-space between paragraphs). The type face should be 12-pt. Times Roman or 12-pt. Courier in regular black type. Do not use color, bold type, or italics except as required for APA-level headings and references. The deliverable length of the body of your paper for this assignment is 2-3 pages. In-body academic citations to support your decisions and analysis are required. A variety of academic sources is encouraged.

• Reference page: References that align with your in-body academic sources are listed on the final page of your paper. The references must be in APA format using appropriate spacing, hang indention, italics, and upper- and lowercase usage as appropriate for the type of resource used. Remember, the Reference Page is not a bibliography but a further listing of the abbreviated in-body citations used in the paper. Every referenced item must have a corresponding in-body citation.
