Once the conversation is flowing, participate substantively with your peers to teach from one another.Classmate #1:In today’s society where almost everyone is online socializing, Facebook has implemented security concerns for the upcoming election in 2020. In 2016, four networks had been closed and terminated from using the social media site. The reason was because it had been determined that these four networks were tied to Russia and had a negative impact on the 2016 presidential election. So for precautionary measures, Facebook has released some new security features just in time for the upcoming election to make sure that the citizens of the United States made the genuine decision on electing the next president instead of any foreign entities playing apart in making that decision. One feature in particular is that a grey screen will appear in front of fact checked photos and videos which will display a message of whether the information being presented is fact checked and deemed as false information which is a great rollout plan because some users do not fact check their information that they view. Social media users can then make their own decision about who they want to vote for in the election based off of that information that they received that they did not fact check. This feature alone can help minimize election interfering from other countries that sways voters to vote for the other candidate instead of the one they was going to vote for. In conclusion, I am glad that the security concerns form the 2016 election made Facebook roll out some sort of plan that can detect and thwarts these types of interferences.

OECD has created a set of recommendations on the protection of children online. This recommendation highlights risks across three categories “Internet technology risks, (i.e. when the Internet is the medium through which the child is exposed to content or where an interaction takes place) consumer-related risks to children online, (i.e. the child is targeted as a consumer online), and information privacy and security risks (i.e. risks every Internet user faces but for which children form a particularly vulnerable user group. ” (The Protection of Children Online). And while the actual threats the children face are disturbingly far too numerous to highlight here, the document provides a detailed overview including reputable statistics or each threat.Not only does the article highlight many potential threats to our children online it also shows existing policies that are in place to protect our children. One thing that was highlighted was that because this threat is so relatively new that “[i]t is not at present possible to compare the effectiveness of high-level policies owing to a lack of comparable evidence to make a case for best practices.” (The Protection of Children Online). This document recommends was that at the international level governing institutions take a multidimensional approach to drafting policy. There needs to be coherence, consistency, and coordination across institutional and managerial systems in order to protect our children online. What is the OECD? (n.d.).

In fact, so receptive that they both said they see a lot of leadership potential in you."We are both sorry about the whole ordeal. We will both work together to control our emotions and not let it take over us again," says Sam."Yes I agree. I will approve the project budget, but to ensure everyone is on the same page and that project risks are managed properly, we need to see a simple project communication plan and a risk register. We need to understand your approach better going forward," says Gloria.Jim turns to you, handing you a template for both the risk register and the communications plan. "You have done such an excellent job throughout this entire project. Would you be willing to complete these plans?" "Of course." you say. "Because of this incident and the leadership that you have displayed over the past few months, we would like you to take over Jim's position as the new project manager," says Sam to you.AssignmentBack at your desk, you start filling out the risk register template.
