This is a research project and should focus on a topic (perhaps a new technology) that is of interest to you and/or your organization.

The point of this project is for your group to research the topic/area and take that conceptual research you have performed and extrapolate it into a tangible scheme of how that tech/topic/area might be used in the business environment - in particular organizations your team is personally involved .  As with our common theme throughout the class - security - your work should include the potential security issues with the topic and as managers on the implementation team what recommendations you would make to mitigate those risks.

Some things to think about while you are working on the project:

- Can the organization implement a generic version of the tech or will it require changing processes that exist currently?

- What are the costs and benefits of the topic/tech and how those will be measured (use model from your finance class)?

- How will this be implemented in the organization and what steps should be taken to insure a smooth implementation?

- Is this topics/tech readily available in the marketplace or will there be development required?

- Are there security issues associated with this topic/tech? Perhaps it solves current security problems?
