Explain your recommendation about whether to keep the current system or revert back to the older system. Describe at least one ethical and/or legal issue that the clinic must consider as a result of your recommendation.

Cybersecurity Consultation

For this interactive assignment you will take on the role of a newly appointed data security consultant for a mental health clinic. The clinic has adopted a new system that allows clinicians to take and store notes from individual counseling sessions in their clients’ files in a far more effective and efficient manner. This new system has lessened operational costs for the clinic allowing them to lower client costs per session, as well as allowing for more integrative care within the clinic. This system has shown improved benefits in the standard of care for all patients. In a recent news report, however, this same system was cited as having been recently breached by hackers looking for personal data. This system has been adopted for use in thousands of clinics across the country and this is the first report of a security breach. The clinic now faces the dilemma of whether to continue using the current, beneficial system, or revert to the older system that had time-tested security benefits.

In your role as a consultant, you have been tasked by the clinic’s board of directors to make a recommendation about whether to keep the current system, or to switch back to the old system. Evaluate the ethical and legal issues related to the clinic’s dilemma and create a presentation for the board.

For your initial post, you will create a three-five minute screencast video of a PowerPoint presentation for the clinic’s board addressing the security issues related to the system and providing them with your recommendation. For the screencast video portion, you may use any screencasting platform you wish. (Quick-start guides for Screencast-O-Matic (Links to an external site.) and Jing (Links to an external site.) are provided for your convenience.)

Your PowerPoint presentation must include the following elements.

Explain your recommendation about whether to keep the current system or revert back to the older system.
Describe at least one ethical and/or legal issue that the clinic must consider as a result of your recommendation.
Describe at least one additional technique that the clinic can utilize to further protect itself against cyber crime.
Explain the basic legal rights of the clinic if it is affected by cyber crime in the future.

Question 1 65 marks in total

Word limit 1200 words
You are a paralegal and your supervisor, Hilary Helmore has asked you to prepare a note for a meeting with a client called Kamran Gul and Associates Ltd (“KG Ltd”), a technology business, which is trying to recover a debt from a business debtor, Adnan Khan. Ms Helmore has not yet met the client, but their managing Director, Kamran Gul, has arranged to come to your firm’s offices shortly for advice on the claim. Ms Helmore is unable to meet Mr Gul and has asked you to attend the meeting and advise Mr Gul.

The background to the client’s claim is as follows. KG Ltd has designed and sells a software package (known as KG Debt Management 2021) which enables businesses to process debts more efficiently. KG Ltd delivered the software licence for KG Debt Management 2021 to Mr Khan on 1st February 2021. Prior to this, a quote for £16,000 dated 13th January 2021 was accepted by Mr Khan for purchase and installation of KG Debt Management 2021. There was no contract other than the quote dated 13th January, a copy of which was countersigned by Mr Khan. In December 2020, Mr Khan had attended KG Ltd’s offices and had seen the KG Debt Management 2021 system in operation at KG Ltd’s offices. Mr Khan paid £2,000 on 28th January 2021, as obliged to do under the quote which stipulated this was due before installation of the software. The quote stated that the balance was due within 14 days of installation of the software. Mr Gul has attempted to speak personally to Mr Khan about the debt, but none of his calls has been returned. The software was installed by a technician, Paul Smith (trading as Saffron Walden Office Supplies Ltd), who has a separate contract with KG Ltd to install KG Debt Management 2021. Mr Gul has received complaints from other customers that Paul Smith has performed poorly on occasions and Mr Gul is considering employing a specialist technician to allow KG Ltd in future to install the KG Debt Management 2021 software itself rather than relying on Saffron Walden Office Supplies Ltd.

Mr Gul wants to recover the debt as soon as possible. In preparation for your meeting with Mr Gul, Ms Helmore has asked you to draft a note (of not more than 1,200 words) dealing with the following issues:

 

1 What steps would KG Ltd need to take prior to issuing proceedings? 10 marks

2 What is meant by “disclosure” and what documents would KG Ltd disclose in this action? 10 marks

3 Draft a Particulars of Claim in this action (up to but excluding the statement of truth). 35 marks

4 Supposing KG Ltd were to succeed in their claim what options are available to the client for enforcement of the award. 10 marks
