Once the final design is determined, the team is expected to include the following: 1. A module hierarchy: For example
Mock-up Screens The mock-up (Screen) can be detailed or general in nature and only show the positioning of objects on a screen. Your group would create a mock-up for each screen in the system or relate common screens together. For example, using the hierarchy chart above, your group could say that the employee screen and skill screen are similar and therefore the layout is as follows… The design could also reference details such as screen background colour, font size, colour, etc. 3. Reports Your group will list what reports the system will generate and then the layout of each report. The layout should indicate what is on the report and the positioning of objects on the report. 4. Documentation & User Manual High-quality documentation that answers most user questions and reduces after-sales support calls (and expense). Support documentation allows the user to use the delivered software with ease and efficiency. Ideally, it comprises: 1. Interface text: The labels on interface elements like menu items, fields, instructions, confirmations, error messages et al. 2. Application messages: Operational error messages and warnings. 3. Online documentation: Online help, tutorial and searchable help pages. 4. Print documentation: User manual and technical reference manual.

For example, you could assume that an organisation website is one of the most critical information assets of the organisation. Create a WFA template to rank the top five assets. • Task 3: identify the top five threats to the organisation information assets. Support your findings by referencing reputable sources of information. • Task 4: Discuss how the top five threats identified in Task 3 could/could not impact the asset. Rank the threats and define the risk values based on their likelihood of exposure and levels of impact (potential consequences) on the asset.
