Should CyberTech remain on both the OPM breach investigation and the overseas case at the same time? Or should we drop one of the cases?

Apply Critical Thinking

Early one morning at work, CEO Alice Johnson asks if you have a moment to chat. I need your expertise and advice on a complicated situation for the company regarding an international hacking lawsuit. In her office, Alice explains that Cyber Tech is serving as the cyber forensics consultant for a law firm handling the suit from a 2015 hack of the Office of Personnel Management, OPM. The OPM hack compromised background information on millions of workers.

We need to maintain our image as an unbiased cyber security consultant. Should Cyber Tech remain on both the OPM breach investigation and the overseas case at the same time? Or should we drop one of the cases? Apply your critical thinking and analytical skills to figure out what happened what we know and don’t know, and how the company might remedy this situation.

What is one significant change related to death, dying, and bereavement that you think might happen over the next decade?

Over the past 2 months, we’ve addressed many issues and topics related to End of Life Issues and Perspectives. We have seen how many aspects of death and dying vary across time and across cultures.
Technology plays an important role in these changes. Based on this week’s Learning Resources, as well as what you have learned in the class so far, what is one significant change related to death, dying, and bereavement that you think might happen over the next decade?

The study of death and dying compels us to think about life and living. In Week 7, we saw that being proactive about death planning is as much about living on your own terms as it about putting your affairs in order.

But beyond wills and estates, our exploration of death inevitably raises questions about legacy. Once we are gone, how will we be remembered?
