Business Report Proposal
I. Introduction:
Statement of Problem.
In 2003, the company experienced a major increase of problems with the
Local Area Network (LAN). The LAN downtime has double from previous
years. There’s also an increase of maintenance problem with computers
systems this includes hardware and software. Some user’s have acquired the
authority to load there own software on their system, this has attributed to
some user’s purchasing or borrowing software from unimproved sources and
loading them on to their systems. If these actions continue it may cause
irreversible damage to our information system. This is causing this unit
thousandth of dollars per month.
Objective.
This proposal examines the computer and LAN problems from the
viewpoint of new and old employees, the tier one and tier two information
system managers. It then offers a plan to make the system more secure
against hackers. In addition, it recommends ways to improve the computer
and system maintenance making it a more secure environment for the
entire company.
Sources.
The data is compiled from a company wide-interview questionnaire,
interviews with employees; email inquiries to companies similar to 1st
Battalion Engineers, the internet, and over six years of observations of
military information system networks.
Details of the Problem.
This subsection examines the severity and causes of security and maintenance
problems on the LAN.
Severity.
Since 2001, the company has experienced a continuous increase of
computer system problems. Personnel are allowed too many privileges with
their assigned computers and the local area network, and the use of
unapproved software, which only compounds this problem. We experienced
four major system problems in the past year that led to the entire LAN being
in-operable. Many users lack the know-how to operate their system. Upon in-
processing employees are presented with numerous passwords that they
tend to write down on paper and attached to their desk or computer this
represents a major security flaw to any company that processes classified
information.
Causes.
The following were specific concerns noted by the Information System
Manager, technicians, and the employer (in descending order of importance):
1. New employees loading unauthorized software on the company systems.
2. P...

The book Fifth Business by Robertson Davies is written from the point of view of the narrator; a man named Dunstable Ramsay. From the readers’ perspective, we see him to be the main character, but as the novel progresses, he and those he encounters start to see him as fifth business. The novel shows and follows Dunstan Ramsay in his pursuit for self-knowledge, and ultimately fulfilling his role as ‘Fifth Business’ in the eyes of a number of people. It is evident that throughout the novel, he reminds himself and the reader that in fact his life and the lives of those who are close to him do not necessarily revolve around him however he still plays a large part in influencing their respective lives. The novel constantly shows instances where guilt and competition play roles in shaping character’s decisions.
Numerous studies have suggested that there is a strong positive correlation between additional years of schooling undertaken and average wage returns (see Card 1999, 2001, Kane et al 1999, Kirby and Riley 2008, Silles 2007 and Park 1996). However, more recent UK research has focused upon returns related to the type of qualifications attained (Croucher et al, 2006). It has been found that most typically there are higher wage returns to academic qualifications than that of vocational qualifications whereas low level vocational qualifications bring little return - (see Dearden et al, 2002 and Sianesi, 2003). Suggesting then that low level vocational qualifications are in fact not worth pursuing and instead it is more beneficial to pursue an academic qualification.

Meanwhile, these massive files quickly began monopolizing the services of the central location network switch. Since the network was physically redundant throughout, the network components tried to calculate new paths along which the data could flow; but eventually became confused. Therefore, the redundant components intended to operate in tandem became primary and began to duplicate each other’s functions, resulting in an endless loop until the network was totally disabled. On the afternoon of November 13, 2002, every software application that required network communication abruptly stopped
