Word Limit: 1500 words.

Write a thoroughly researched and organised report on the following aspects.

As a future CIO of an organisation, you are asked to comment on the data storage issues of a multi national company (MNC). The organisation has a strong presence of a mobile workforce in three continents, with each continent employing about 100 employees that collect data on a daily basis for analytics.

The data includes financial details, stock details, manufacturing details, sales details and a number of indicators used by stock markets to determine stock values. Due to many operational issues, the MNC is seriously considering data storage issues, and commissioned you to write a thoroughly researched report on this topic.

Your report should focus on the following aspects.

1. The processes and procedural considerations the organisation would/will need to understand in data storage aspects on the cloud?

2. The various resources required to manage such data storage for an initial period of three years, with a complete resource and cost table for the process of implementation of such a cloud based storage system (this should be your PERT/GANTT chart, with justifications as to your cost elements and costs considered).

2. What are the potential security risks in implementation of such a system?

For the purpose of this assignment, you will make necessary assumptions, validate the same, and then provide a well-researched and informed report to the CEO.
