· How will having an organizational pandemic plan, a COVID 19 workforce staffing plan, a new tactical plan with policies to manage new cybersecurity risks as a result of telework influence the culture or impact an organization?

Research

Remember, cybersecurity technology generally has a very short lifespan. Therefore, research material should reflect such life. This means the majority of the reference list on the paper should be no more than five years old. That is, technical academic references older than five years (with the exceptions of theoretical underpinnings sources) should be used sparingly.

Case-1 Paper

Prepare

The writing style is almost like a reference for every sentence to every other sentence. If you state a term, idea, or concept that is not your own, you need to provide a reference. Each paragraph should focus one idea and should do so in a way that it connects back to helping readers understand either the topic of your study, the complexity of your problem, or the main research question in your study.

These are references that need to be embedded in your paragraphs. If you talk about an idea, concept, or model or term, you need to provide a reference at the end of that sentence. You mention a static or state something as a fact; you need a reference at the end of that sentence. Your thoughts about the topic might be true, but if you cannot find a reference that supports it and allows you to write in a way that does not read like it is your own bias and opinion, then you need to remove the sentence.

You cannot list terms and concepts unless you connect them to your problem statement, purpose statement, and research questions.
