Research Essay
Learning Outcomes Covered in this Assignment
LO1 Research emerging trends and published literature on the scope and limitations of cyber-security countermeasures at user-level
LO2 Critically contrast sources and published opinions in cyber-security
LO3 Argue and defend proposed solutions demonstrating an understanding of the underlying software limitations and how they impact on users
What you have to do
Solid, thorough, well researched and well-argued proposal on direct and indirect cyber security threats (for an employee in financial institution around Europe or south east Asia with family working a lot from home) and what should be the physical and software countermeasures. Emphasis should be given on cutting-edge technology solutions but the focus here is the role of, and impact on, the individual user.
Comments
All sections must be supported by research. Research is VERY important to your coursework: do not argue from opinion, argue from facts.
Here's how research will be assessed for coursework :
• No research sources, plagiarised text, ideas or images, single source or multiple sources from same origin: do not even think about this, it will cause the coursework to fail.
• There are a few different sources from different places, referenced and discussed critically: this is barely ok
• There are quite a few good sources from many different places, referenced and discussed critically: ok, this is getting better than ok.
• There are quite a few good sources from many different places, covering emerging trends, critically contrasted and argued for/against when used to propose and support proposed solutions: we're talking higher marks.
