You can add, subtract, rewrite, use one or more slides, etc. as long as you make the same points more effectively. Please keep your solutions in PowerPoint format for easier sharing. Remember to put your name in the Notes section of your slide(s). Be creative and have fun!

3. Issue #1: Too Much Text Information Security is something that affects us all. Whether you work in the mail room or the executive suite, the simple truth is that we all face risks to our company’s security every day, in everything we do. Whether you’re in a meeting, talking on the phone, or writing an email, you need to be sure you’re not sharing confidential information with someone who may not be authorized to receive it.

4. Issue #2: Too Many Elements Here are ways you can protect our company’s information:  Proofread emails carefully  Never discuss confidential information in hallways  Don’t discuss confidential information outside work TIP: Close your office door before starting a call! TIP: Don’t let strangers hear you discuss confidential data in the cafeteria! TIP: Don’t let strangers see what you’re reading on the train or bus!

5. Issue #3: Color Overload Color grabs the viewer’s attention: – It livens things up visually – It tells them where to look – It tells them how to feel All black and white makes a different statement: – It says “formal” – It can all look like legalese – Nothing jumps out

6. Issue #4: Too Many Fonts There are many examples of security breach: –An email accidentally sent to the wrong person –A phone call where you accidentally share a trade secret to someone who hasn’t signed our NDA –A casual chat about a confidential matter on the street or train with others able to overhear what you’re saying And of course there are many other examples. You can’t be too careful!

7. Issue #5: Poor Image Choice Also remember that at all times, you represent our company to the rest of the world. Your conduct, your attire, your word choice—they should all be discreet, professional, and reflect well on our company.

8. Issue #6: Word Choice It is imperative that all associates adhere to the new, more stringent guidelines immediately to prevent the incursion of additional regulatory repercussions. Assimilation of this edict from O.U.D. and I.S.F is essential at every echelon of our entire organization.
