Explain Windows 10 deployment methods. Which method or methods you think will be appropriate for the upgrade?

project will be to design a training presentation to?the client’s IT staff.

The presentation must meet the following requirements:

11 to 15 slides of easy-to-understand content (text and visuals). Remember, your audience is the IT team within an accounting firm.
voice annotation for every slide (excluding the reference slide)
at least two references
The presentation can incorporate screenshots from Project 2 along with additional screenshots as needed. Content should include work that needs to go into making the upgrade successful, how to improve security using two or three of the Windows 10 built-in features, and how-to backup and restore Windows 10 data using some of the tools available in Windows 10.

The presentation should address your recommendations for the following items:

Version Summary
Recommended version of Windows 10 (e.g., Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, Pro Workstation) and specific reasons for your choice (e.g., security features, technical and business requirements).
Installation Methods
Explain Windows 10 deployment methods. Which method or methods you think will be appropriate for the upgrade? Consider the hardware specifications outlined in the project scenario.
Security Features
Windows Security, BitLocker, Defender, Local Security Policy
Backup and Recovery Overview
Discuss the importance of backing up and recovery of Windows 10. This can include explaining what types of files and data that can backed up and restored. This should address:
the problems encountered when Tetra Shillings Accounting fell victim to a ransomware attack that resulted in the loss of critical data.
the concerns that Tetra Shillings Accounting has concerning recovering data that is lost due to deletion, corruption, or media failure.
the ability to restore system files and settings without affecting the user’s personal files and data.
the concerns that the client has about recovering systems that are negatively impacted by an operating system update.
Backup and Recovery Tools
You will need to explain how to use Windows 10 backup and recovery tools to meet these objectives. Provide a brief overview of each tool and how it can be used to address the company’s concerns. Use screenshots to demo how to configure backups that address the firm’s need to recover from a ransomware attack and restore the system to a state before a Windows update, driver, or application was installed.
Backup to Recover from Ransomware Attack
Describe how to back up and restore individual files using the utilities available in Windows 10. This should provide the client the ability to restore files lost due to ransomware attacks or other potential risks.
Backup and Recover a Restore Point
Research how to protect backup data that is stored on the network. Based on your research, you need to present a strategy to protect backup data that is compromised during a ransomware attack. This will most likely require a strategy to store, copy, or move backups to an offsite location. In this slide, you will need to explain the risks of only having only having a single copy of a backup stored on the network. Think about if the client suffers another ransomware attack and the corrupted data cannot be restored because the backups were also compromised during the attack.
How Will My Work Be Evaluated?

As you progress in your information technology and cybersecurity career, you may find yourself making presentations to customers, client audiences, and management. In this assignment you are being called upon to present a high-level technical presentation to your client’s IT Team.

But the challenge you face is in expressing a technical solution without getting bogged down in too much detail. You simply want to introduce or refresh the audience on the key points of Windows 10 benefits, including security and backup methods.

Find a way to relay your solution (and challenges) in language that your audience will find easily relatable.

Communicating in this manner will not always be easy. You may struggle to find the right analogy or metaphor. But if you can master the skill of summarizing your results and recommendations in an effective presentation, you will demonstrate how you use your technical knowledge to convey your ideas to others in a professional setting. You will also earn the respect and trust of your peers, your supervisor, and upper management as an effective communicator. You will be viewed as an employee ready for advancement.

How can current research in cognitive neuroscience be applied to understanding different problems in psychology, including the mind-brain problem and questions concerning brain development and change?

In Module One, you were introduced to the mind-brain problem, where psychologists consider how the brain and the non-physical mind may impact or control behavior. Another important concept in psychology is understanding how the brain develops and changes, and what aids in these changes. Because the field of cognitive neuroscience examines the brain through imaging methods, it is an area of psychology that is poised to answer some of these questions. After completing this week’s readings, answer the following questions: How can current research in cognitive neuroscience be applied to understanding different problems in psychology, including the mind-brain problem and questions concerning brain development and change? How do you think modern imaging methods have helped us understand the brain and solve problems in psychology? Be sure to support your answers with information from the readings.

What are the major revenue sources and major expenditures?

Instructions

Students are to utilize the same local or state government from Short Paper #1 to analyze that government’s revenues and expenditures.

Students should prepare a 5-page policy memo addressed to the head of that government (i.e., mayor, commission chair, or governor) that describes the following about the local or state:

Types of Funds
Overview of General Fund Budget Over 3 Years (Actual, Budget, Proposed)
Response to the following questions:
What are the major revenue sources and major expenditures?
Is the budget balanced? Why or Why not?
Fully explain if and how the expenditures align with the fiscal goals and objectives?

See this visual example of a business memo. When you are discussing the above areas, you must provide context for each category to ensure understanding about the issue (using historical information, data, current status, options for moving forward and explaining the challenges and opportunities/benefits for each option). Just because you are writing the memo to the executive, does not mean the executive is fully aware of all the details as you are. So … fully explain.

When you choose your level of government, you can go to that government’s website and seek information regarding the structure, budget, goals, strategic plan, and other information that will benefit this assignment. For example, if a student chooses Lee County, GA. You can go to Lee County’s government website and see some of this information. The information may not be on one or two webpages, so you should be diligent and seek this information out.

Ensure to use in-text citations and have a reference page.
