Instructions
You must use the template I provided for this assignment since it will make it a lot easier for you. Failure to do so will result in a return of your paper for you to redo, a reduction in points, or both.
This second assignment also has three parts.
The first part involves picking something you found interesting from week six, exploring it beyond the readings, and expanding on it in a paper. This section of your paper needs to be at least three pages long and cannot be about something you wrote directly about in a forum.
The second part involves picking one of the critical infrastructures you learned in week four and writing about it using the six guidelines below. You cannot write about the critical infrastructure that you wrote about in the first paper or the forum.
The third part involves picking one of the critical infrastructures you learned in week five and writing about it using the six guidelines below. You cannot write about the critical infrastructure you wrote about in the forum.
It is up to you to decide what will be the most interesting for you!
You need to use the following outline for each of the two critical infrastructures:
- Provide a Hypothetical Threat (cyber, natural disaster, or physical)
- Brief background on the Critical Infrastructure as it relates to National Security

- Existing Resiliency related to the Continuity of Operations

Technical Requirements
