Discussion: In this day and age of technology, it is inevitable that people have multiple digital assets at their disposal. Digital assets refers to any digital content an organization (or person) owns or has acquired the right to use including text, graphics, audio, video and animations (Johnson & Easttom, 2021, p. 39).
In the case of Liberty University the digital assets that they posses is:
1) Introduction to Security Management Policy video. A video of which they made and own and which adds value to this course and as a result the University.
2) Security policies and implementation issues book. The textbook that is used for this course to help the students understand the foundation of Information security and that Liberty has gained the right to use.
These assets are important because they aid in the teaching and understanding of Information Security. Better student satisfaction with study materials yields better student results and as a result showcases the efficiency of Liberty University and their commitment to supplying the best educational experience possible. The Bible has a lot to say about stealing and thieves.
Proverbs 6:30-31 says: "Men do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house," this shows us that even in this fallen world the act of stealing, no matter the reason; valid or not, is a very serious crime and as a result will yield serious consequences when discovered. These laws and consequences we have mirror the ultimate law of God and the consequences He bestows on those who disobey them, "nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God," (1 Cor 6:10, NIV).
