Using the same company/organization that was selected for Project Sections 1-3 and the Final Project, write 2-3 pages on the following in APA format:
Describe and discuss the information systems’ RISKS indicators, as they relate to (a) the Four Domain Architectures, and (b) the organization’s environment. Think: What external factors are beyond the organization’s control that could possibly put the organization at risk? What are the organization’s competitors doing better than your selected organization?
Describe and discuss the planned design features that relate to the Agility, Scalability, Extensibility and Protection of the system. Think: What design features can be incorporated to help the organization mitigate/reduce risk?
