Case study: The foundation is inconsequential

Case study: The foundation is inconsequential

The syndicate started experiencing growth at all business units. It culminated in an increase in profit margin. As a market leader, the company started investing cripplingly in other ventures therefore widening its portfolio. Such is a story of a certain thrilling Ghanaian own business. Management thought it wise to employ more labour to beef up the shortfall of their employees. Kofi Antobam was lucky to be employed after several years in search of a white colour job. The opportunity had finally come. As part of his job description, he was expected to canvas for customers and possibly deploy all marketing strategies at his disposal to retain the hard-won customers. Coming from a very strong ethical background, and an orphan as well, he gave out all his best to secure the job for good. Growing up as a Christian, with a strong religious background he tried to respectfully lure customers to patronize the company through all ethical means. Antobam was voted for as the senior staff worker for three consecutive years in a row. The reason being that he was the only customer service person who has been meeting its target. Other workers kept wandering and wanted to know from him the strategies to attain that height. The cold breeze started to blow against the company’s fortunes and the business started growing from bad to worse. Crunch meeting was held and the final decision from management was that some of the workers should be laid off and other departments should be closed down. Customer service was first to be hit. Over 35 customer service personnel were affected and Kofi Antobam has not left out very sad news but a blessing in disguise. Toughness mentality is the only ingredient needed to start this kind of business that Antobam had in excess. He pulled resources together to start his micro finance scheme. He already had a pool of customers and they were ready to transact business with him. He started with no funds but a year later he was having a profit of 5000 Ghana Cedis and plough back into the business and started issuing out loans and that was his breakthrough from grass to grace.

Your answer should be based on the case study.

Question 1

In your opinion do you think Antobam is an entrepreneur or not. Justify your submission with an underlined concept.      (100 words) 15 marks.

Question 2

What could be the possible options available to Antobam if he decides to own a business?

Should a workplace be allowed to subject an employee to disciplinary action

/in /by

Should a workplace be allowed to subject an employee to disciplinary action (including discharge) if the employee does not return to work because that employee believes they may incur a higher risk of severe illness due to exposure to Covid-19 infection? If so, should this apply to all employees who have that belief or should there be some underlying conditions (including age) for exempting only employees who meet certain criteria that would subject them to a higher risk of illness from Covid-19 exposure? Discuss all viable options and sides.
(Remember this is a law course so you must bring the law (especially the current law) into your paper (this may involve statutes, administrative rules, court cases, etc.) You should bring in original legal sources if applicable. This is a law class, so I do not just want your opinion. As this is a developing problem, you should also bring in any current or pending laws (states or federal, etc.) and possible challenges to these laws into your paper.

A small private healthcare organization has contracted you to investigate the requirements of encryption in their information systems and to develop a robust policy for its use. Write a formal report outlining your findings and presenting your recommendations.

Some topics you could address:

1. The range of documents and messages to be encrypted, e.g. Electronic Health Records (HER), Electronic Patient Records (EPR) and their security requirements.

2. The different objectives of the deployed cryptosystems, i.e. Confidentiality, Authentication and Non-repudiation.

3. The specific cryptographic algorithms and architectures available, along with their relative advantages and drawbacks. Which will be best suited for which purposes?

4. How will the cryptographic protection of static documents (e.g. those stored on a server) differ from that of documents in transit (e.g. transferred within and between sites)?

5. Will there be issues of compatibility between the organization’s cryptographic policy, and that of the NHS?

6. How will your solution scale with the possible future development of the organization?

7. How will cryptographic keys (and certificates) be created and managed?

8. How will the different levels of authorization within the organization be managed?

9. How will the effectiveness of your solution be monitored and assessed?

These are only suggestions: your report will likely not cover all of themand you may discover others of equal importance which you might want to address. (Please contact the assessor if you have any concerns.) You may draw upon the material taught in class and/or your own independent research, but make sure you cite all your information sources. Feel free to make any assumptions you feel are necessary, but state and justify these.
