Assignment

Your company is debating transferring all of their information to a Cloud storage provider. The CFO feels this move is a big cash savings plan, one that could save the company a lot of money. The CIO feels the risk is too high and wants you to develop an Awareness presentation and Information Guide handout to outline the Pros and Cons of this storage plan. You will present this presentation at an executive session next week.

Note: The cloud storage for this assignment is not Dropbox, iCloud, etc. Rather, the assignment is about cloud service providers that provide IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS services.

The objectives of this assignment are to:

Describe how to determine the risk associated with the selected cloud service provider

Describe operational security pros and cons of using cloud storage

Describe how security management tasks for the customer and the cloud service provider differ depending on whether IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS is selected.

Create a 4- to 6-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation. Include the following:

Content for each of the objectives

Detailed slide notes including analysis of each concept or term listed in each slide. Each slide must include detailed slide notes supported by one or more supporting references. The references must be cited in the slide notes.

References used to support your presentation, including a minimum of two outside academic references in addition to course textbooks and videos. Your references must be shown in a references slide at the end of your presentation.

Neither the title slide nor the references slide are included in the required slide count.
