Select a System/Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) model and methodology then apply this model and methodology to an Information Technology (IT) project. You can choose a project you have worked on while working or a project that you worked on in. Be sure to define the SDLC model and methodology and identify which SDLC step is associated with each project component.

Exercise: Risks managed with Industrial Control systems
1. Identify a major manufacturing or infrastructure operation within 10 miles of where you live. This could be a power generation of any type, wastewater treatment or water supplier, major chemical manufacturer, refinery, etc.
What is the address of the plant site?
Who owns and operates the plant site?
2. Describe why what this plant does is important (critical) to people living nearby.
3. To score 40 points for this activity, be prepared to report the following information:
The potential impact of an "incident" (loss of operation, chemical release, fire/explosion - you choose) at the site on these populations:
