Discussion

This week's Discussion has only one question and is worth 9 points.

Points will be earned by posts that push the conversation further by add or extend an idea, branch off in a related and novel direction, or challenge the original post's point and explain why.

Clarification posts/posts that ask questions are fine, but to get full points you’ll need to contribute at least three other contributions that push the conversation further with your insights.

I recommend you check in on the discussions 4-5 times per week, so you can participate in the conversation as it develops. The rule about three posts on three separate days is in support of that goal and remains in place.

Question 1: What is value at risk?
Consider the organization you work for or any organization you are familiar with answer the question that is raised in the McKinsey article: “Do we have a clear understanding of our portfolio of network-enabled assets and their respective value at risk? Do we have sufficiently robust best practices and expertise in-house to adequately protect them?”

If you cannot answer this for another organization, try to answer the questions for Dominican. At a minimum, list some network enabled assets at Domincan that you think would be at risk. Start with the ones that you think have the most value at risk.
