Below are 5 interesting TED or TED-type talks that relate to security.
Your assignment is to pick one of the videos below and write a response to it. It doesn’t have to be long but should be about 3 – 5 paragraphs. It can be for, against or just a general, thoughtful response to the topic\video. You do not need to spend a lot of time explaining what the video is about – since I have seen them – but I do want you to spend the majority of the assignment explaining your perspective and thoughts about it.
Since IT security personnel need to not only know what actions we need to implement, we need to understand why we need to take them as well as any related background topics.
I have to mention: do not cut and paste information from other sources – I want your view and in your words. But, I also want you to support your views with at least two in-text citations. This means you will also need an APA style reference list. A cover page is not required for this assignment.
