Ipremier Case Summary

The CEO and the board are responsible for “good business judgment” in guarding against the threat. So Paul’s first mistake was to dismiss the original e-mail message. All IT threats should be taken seriously, and he would have let Jacob Dale know about no IT system is “bulletproof.” Sunnylake should have had a workable, fully tested backup system to ensure uninterrupted patient service and protect everyone affected. Doctors and nurses are trained to diagnose, problem solve, and dynamically treat their patients. IT systems facilitate, but are not substitutes for, patient treatment. The fact that the hospital did not have up-to-date security software installed, or a reliable security outsourcer and an emergency plan in place, is inexcusable.

However, some people trying to fix the attack did an adequate job considering the problems the company had. Joanne and Leon Ledbetter did everything in their power to restore the website and protect the customer data, which even included running red lights. Leon was so new that he didn’t know exactly what to do. Training for an emergency would have proven useful. The CIO, Bob Turley, knew of the emergency protocol and out of date manuals, but never did anything to alleviate these problems. This put the company in a significant disadvantage, and created a bigger problem than what was necessary. Faced with this problem, Turley was able to facilitate direction for the company as best as he could, which ended with the security breach stopping.

The applicability and validity of electronic signatures governed by UECA in Canadian case law will be demonstrated through Girouard v. Druet. In this case, Ms. Druet had offered her condominium for sale on Kijiji. She had named a price and conditions for Mr. Girouard in an email, and he countered with a lower price. Ms. Druet accepted the counteroffer, but later sent an email saying that she had decided not to sell at the agreed to price. Mr. Girouard asserted that she could not back out for they had a binding contract. One of the issues that the Court considered was whether the alleged agreement was invalid as failing to comply with the Statue of Frauds, which provides that no contract for the sale of land is enforceable unless the agreement

Personally I don’t believe that Chief Pirsig, should have even been given the working role of Chief. Being the Chief of police takes a lot of work and you must be able to make quick decisions when needed. Because the chief did not feel comfortable making unanticipated decisions in unsettled circumstance, I don’t think he should be the Chief of the police department. He clearly had so much anxiety about making a decision he was physically ill and had to take days off from work.

The city had learned from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and had done contingency planning in the event of another similar terrorist attack. It established a state of the art Emergency Operations Center. It was evident that training was provided to all departments and officials as to what the priority would be in the case of a disaster, which is public safety. The first thing that was done was to seal off the area to allow first responders to respond quickly and evacuate the public from the area. Even in the absence of communication with the Emergency Operations Center, department heads and key ranking personnel knew exactly what the priority was and acted accordingly. The city’s preparedness left little room for doubt as to who was in charge, with that being said, state and federal agencies were mainly in the role of supporting the city in the efforts of evacuating, rescue and recovery. The leadership provided by the mayor calmed the already shocked public and reassured them of their safety. “The three steps of crisis management are prevention, preparation and containment” (Starling, 2008, p.222). The city itself could not have done much about preventing the situation, but the city’s preparation was evident by their public administrator’s and employee’s quick decisive response. The containment was also accomplished by the city action of closing off the area and

11:00am- IRTC spoke with assigned CPS, Chantel Palmer, who indicated that the current case was called in because of the incident that was already reported during the prior investigation. CPS voiced that the subject child was expected to receive a STD test as a precautionary measure. CPS stated that there is no new information that was reported that was not already previously investigated. IRTC informed CPS to alert IRTC if the subject child test positive for an STD.

Kluger goes on to explain throughout the story that the most important thing to remember during a crisis is to stay organized and act calmly. Referring to everyday occurrences of evacuations that take place all over the world, depending on what type of situation the person or people is/are placed in, the differences of how they handle the situation may vary. Such as fire drills practiced

According to new iBurst CEO, Duncan Simpson-Craib, iBurst has secured funding to be rolling out an LTE Advanced (LTE-A) network and is finalizing contract negotiations with a retailer for the project. In November Multisource had completed their acquisition of WBS, which is the parent company of iBurst as well as Broadlink.

Alternative type of attack is called a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. DDoS attacks are launched form numerous linked devices that are spread across the Internet. They are commonly harder to deflect, because of their sheer volume of devices involved. Unlike DoS attacks, DDoS assaults be apt to target the system infrastructure in an effort to drench it with huge volumes of traffic.

iPremier’s procedures were absolutely deficient. They had an outdated emergency manual that employees couldn’t find, and almost couldn’t access the data center. Additional measures they could have implemented long before the attack include revising the emergency procedure and making sure all employees know how to follow it.

Distributed denial of service is hard to block. Due to much traffic, system could not tolerate the unacceptable requests from different machines. A single user is attacked from the number of attackers. The millions of requests force the computer to shut down. The main purpose of denial of service is to disturb business of specific organization. The normal work is effected such as make server unavailable to its regular users. A single blockage of an IP address could not stop the attack.
