Term Paper
Assignment: Do some research and write a paper examples of poor IT-related business continuity practices... where hardware failures or natural disasters have created significant disruptions in a business (profit loss, customer dissatisfaction, etc). You should include at least 4 examples in your paper, and devote a significant portion of your paper on discovering common themes that could have mitigated the problem (no backup, no battery power, etc). Once again, this is not a "survey paper", and I don't want you to copy from an article that already has determined the "common disaster themes"... instead, I want you to use articles to do research on your own to find those common themes. The requirements are:
At least 8 pages
At least 1 figure and 1 table
At least 6 references, with no more than 3 being Internet references
Purpose: To demonstrate your understanding the importance of business continuity
Expectations: A single Microsoft Word document in APA format.
Instructions: Submit your file using the naming convention in the syllabus, for example: "CISK450 TermPaper Doe.John.docx"
