Assignment
Based on the topic you decided on, the organization needs to have a better understanding of how (your topic) currently affects the company. You decide to create a survey and send to all of the Business Unit Managers.
• Create an original 10 question survey asking questions about (your topic) in MS Word or as a PDF.
• The survey should be based on a 5-point Likert scale and be in a survey format
• The results of the survey questions should provide you with insight on the current
security posture of the organization by department and their level of understanding of
this threat.
• Be creative with the 10 questions and make sure each question is related to your topic
• The relevance of these question will help identify the current security posture of the
organization.
• Check the Internet if needed on how to design a Likert Scale survey.
• All surveys should be completed independently by each student. Duplicate surveys
(exact questions or extremely similar questions) submitted by multiple students will
receive a grade of zero.
• No APA or references are needed for this assignment.
 
Submission:
You do not need to email this survey or send it out to anyone. Just submit it through Blackboard. This is a hypothetical scenario only, but should be completed as if you were sending this to the real Business Managers in your organization.
