White papers present a single idea with policy recommendations. For example, a white paper on privacy and the Internet of Things might present a set of recommendations for advancing privacy in the design of apps, but WOULD NOT simply review the research. White papers present a POV (Point of View) on a topic, along with relevant research. They are useable documents with purpose, not simple research pieces.
White papers should be 5-7 pages, 1.5 spaced, in Arial format with 1” margins all around. All citations should be presented in APA style.  Endnotes will not count toward page length.
The white paper project will be worth 100 points in total.
My White Paper topic is based on “How much of our data is really private? I feel as though the average social media user is very unaware of how much of their data is really private?”

Technology delivers improved opportunities for success to an organization, by facilitating innovation and value creation. These same elements create increased exposure for cybersecurity risks while also providing an opportunity for defense.
You will present to senior management of an organization that comprises of more than 1,000 employees and $100 million of turnover, detail the issues and opportunities.
In your paper, carefully organize and then deliver details of the important elements and the implied influences that relate to technology and cybersecurity. In each area, identify losses that might be incurred and key opportunities to improve the probability of success when working with people involved in creating and using technology systems.
References: Support your paper with at least 8 scholarly sources published within the last five years.
Length: 10-12 pages, APA format. Include at least 2 tables, images, or Word Art elements that you have created.
