Case Study and Questions
Gloria is a recent college graduate and a single mom to 16-year-old Gary. Gloria and Gary used to be close. But recently, Gloria has noticed that Gary is only focused on what his friends think about him. Gary recently snuck out of his bedroom window and went to a party when he was supposed to be studying for a big exam. Gloria caught him coming home and smelled alcohol on his breath and marijuana on his clothes. Gloria is shocked and appalled by her son’s recent behavior and grounded him for two weeks.
Gloria comes to you because she needs some advice on how to handle her son’s poor choices. Using what you have learned about the adolescent brain and social development in Chapter 3 of the webtext, answer the questions below to help Gloria understand why her son is making such poor choices, and pose some recommendations to help her solve her problem:
1. What are three physical changes that happen to teen brains that make it difficult for someone like Gary to weigh risk and reward? Write a paragraph to list the changes and describe how they affect decision making.
2. In addition to their brains changing, teens change socially. What do teens wrestle with as they develop socially? Why may Gary value his peers more than his mom? Write a paragraph that describes teens’ social development and how this may influence Gary’s decision to sneak out and go to the party.
3. What are two specific strategies or pieces of advice that you would recommend that Gloria can offer to help her son to make better decisions? Write a paragraph that offers advice that would help Gloria with her son’s development as he improves his decision-making skills.
4. Place yourself in Gloria’s shoes. How do you think Gloria is feeling? How can understanding her feelings help you offer constructive advice? Write a paragraph where you describe how you think Gloria is feeling and explain why understanding her feelings allows you to offer more constructive advice.

Hello all,
I feel week four Company’s Infrastructure and Information System’s needs. This particular topic Impacted me during the course of this week. Prior to this chapter I had no idea how important the technology and information infrastructure. In regard to having your own business played a factor into how things are being conducted and managed. Within this section we covered the use of telecommunications, networking and wireless technologies, functional information systems. 
Week four definitely allowed me to align my company with the needs and demands of running a successful organization. information infrastructure is the backbone of using technology and heavily relying on those system to maintain the overall integrity. Of all the data beginning stored and utilizes to a successful and safe business environment. The information system combined with the infrastructure is the bases for my networking systems, telecommunication, software, databases, and the necessary hardware. With all of these avenues of communication paired together will help in making this a global enterprise. Just by simply using an APP, website, our phone.
The information system is highly important because it maintains employees, customers, and the employer information. With that said we must ensure that our plan for this system must be clear, concise, and direct. On another note, information systems security and control. Help me understand what the importance is of controlling access to the data basis. The company in itself will provide data to the employer, costumer, employees, to include everyone who is monitoring the networking systems.  This is why Information security is a great quality and control measure to have in place and implanted. Information security control is a system that protects our company from unwanted cyber-attacks, various, and any other data breeches to the infrastructure.

Hello Class, the topic I would like to discuss is “Networking and Security.”  This is the selected topic because this was my job for 14 years.  Previously I taught security in a schoolhouse for the army.  Most underestimates how important security is to any network, but it is just as important as the network itself.  I have learned throughout the years that the network’s access, availability, and integrity are equally important to the personnel you are providing this service for.  This is ever so important when it comes to security and privacy in our everyday life.  As individuals, want our private lives to stay private but we do not take the measures to keep them private.  By knowing the basic functions of security or securing our digital lives we can eliminate insider threats (the user).  Insider threats are the largest vulnerability on any network and can do the irreparable damage (Dawson & Thomson, 2018).  As a society, we use the internet mostly every day and have some type of connection with it daily.  This can range from our phone to wearable watch or an actual connected network with an ISP.  Simple connected networks are one’s providers and users never pay close attention to but also need to be secured as well.  
Networking and security can help build solutions to IT businesses by eliminating risk and breaches.  Risk and breaches can cost any business a tremendous amount of money in legality fees and even lawsuits.  If you have a business similar to a hospital, privacy and security is pushed to the for front.  No one wants their personal health information leaked to the public.  Any spillage will go against the HIPPA laws and create distrust with patient confidentiality.  Your business (the hospital) will not make any money, for this is the purpose of business.  Within the networking and security realm it is imperative for training and education on what to do in order to maintain security for an IT business solution.  Security starts with the user (Borky & Bradley, 2018).
