...“IPad’s” Security Breach BUS 508: Contemporary Business August 16, 2011 Strayer University Dr. Robert L. Kight Assignment 4: iPad’s Security Breach This document will attempt to discuss hacking into a Web site. Is it ever justifiable? The document will create a corporate ethics statement for a computer security firm that would allow or even encourage activities like hacking. The document will discuss whether it is important for organizations like Gawker Media to be socially responsible. It will determine factors CEOs should consider when responding to a security breach. Finally, it will create an email script to be sent to AT&T customers informing them of the security breach and a plan to resolve the issue and state the rationale. Apply your theory to a real-world case in which someone hacked into a system, including the name of the company and details. As I attempt to discuss this assignment, I could not avoid thinking about the age-old opinion that Apple products were unique, and that they were protected against criminal encroachments. As such, Apple became one of the hottest technological innovations in the industry. Today, like most other such technology, Apple is becoming increasingly vulnerable to intrusion. It is becoming a medium for posing threats to an entire corporate network as well as devices for official and unofficial use. My answer to this question is twofold. In other words qualification of any kind for such conduct must be based...

...iPad’s Security Breach Samantha Phillips Dr. Prakash G. Menon BUS 508: The Business Enterprise May 29, 2011 Justifying Hacking into a Web site In 2010, McDonald’s said that customer information was exposed after a security breach involving an email marketing managing firm. McDonald’s released a statement explaining that information was obtained by an “unauthorized third party”, but added that financial information and social security numbers were not part of the data accidentally exposed. (Security Magazine, 2010) A security breach exposed iPad owners including dozens of CEOs, military officials, and top politicians. They, and every other buyer of the cellular-enabled tablet, were vulnerable to spam marketing and malicious hacking. The breach, which came just weeks after an Apple employee lost an iPhone prototype in a bar, exposed the most exclusive email list on the planet, a collection of early-adopter iPad 3G subscribers that includes thousands of A-listers in finance, politics and media, from New York Times Co. CEO Janet Robinson to Diane Sawyer of ABC News to Mayor Michael Bloomberg. It even appears that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's information was compromised. In fact, it is believed 114,000 user accounts were compromised, although it's possible that confidential information about every iPad 3G owner in the U.S. has been exposed. (Tate, 2010) Earlier this year, the names and e-mails of customers of Citigroup Inc. and other large U.S. companies...

...FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING BIOGRAPHIES OF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND ALBERT EINSTEIN, THIS IS THE EXCLUSIVE BIOGRAPHY OF STEVE JOBS. Based on more than forty interviews with Jobs conducted over two years—as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues—Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing. At a time when America is seeking ways to sustain its innovative edge, Jobs stands as the ultimate icon of inventiveness and applied imagination. He knew that the best way to create value in the twenty-first century was to connect creativity with technology. He built a company where leaps of the imagination were combined with remarkable feats of engineering. Although Jobs cooperated with this book, he asked for no control over what was written nor even the right to read it before it was published. He put nothing offlimits. He encouraged the people he knew to speak honestly. And Jobs speaks candidly, sometimes brutally so, about the people he worked with and competed against. His friends, foes, and colleagues provide an unvarnished view of the passions, perfectionism, obsessions, artistry, devilry, and compulsion for control that shaped his approach to business and...

...Executive Summary Industry and macro-environmental analyses of the international restaurant industry provides an overview of the industry and reveals the conditions that impact competitiveness and profitability of the industry’s players. The industry is split in two sectors: full-service restaurants (FSR) and limited-service restaurants (LSR). FSRs typically have a wait-staff; LSRs do not have wait-staff. The top five countries, in terms of total number of foodservice outlets, are: China, India, Brazil, Japan, and the US. The industry is of low concentration. Combined, the top industry players make up less than 3% of total global industry revenues. In terms of size, 2013 global sales were $2.6T, up 4.9%. The 2013 global labor force was 62.4M employees, up 2.4%. In accordance with Porter’s Five Forces framework, the forces that shape competition in the restaurant industry have a moderate to high impact on competitiveness. There is a moderate threat of new entrants and a high threat of substitutes. Buyers have a high degree of bargaining power and suppliers have a moderate degree of bargaining power. The restaurant industry is highly competitive and experiences intense rivalry. In terms of macro-environmental factors, emerging markets around the world over are having an impact on how restaurants execute strategy both domestically and abroad. The growth of the middle class in emerging markets, such as China and India, presents a new demographic and an opportunity...
