Assignment

IT security personnel need to not only know what actions we need to implement, we need to understand why we need to take them and well as the any related background topics - we also need to be aware of current events as they relate to Cybersecurity

Your assignment is to pick one of the articles and write a response to it. This is not a major writing assignment. It doesn't have to be long - a page should suffice. It should have a short summary of the article as well as what you take away from it. It should be written so that someone who has not read the article would understand what it was about and what your perspective is on the subject.

I'm sure I don't have to mention it, but I would be remiss if I didn't: As with every assignment I will give, do not cut and paste information from other sources - I always want your view and your words. If you quote the article (or any other source) - especially if it is a direct quote - ensure you cite it properly.
