Abstract
The purpose of this text is to understand the business impact analysis (BIA) needed to guard against cyber-attacks and survive attacks if and when they occur. Business impact analysis, an accepted risk management term for the process of defining the proportional significance or criticality of elements, determines the prioritization, planning, preparation, and other activities of business management strategy. First, the researcher presented BIA as key planning, preparatory and related activities proposed to confirm that companies’ significant business functions will either continue to operate notwithstanding grave disasters or incidents of cyber terrorism or will be recovered to an operational state within a reasonably short period. This research showed how BIA and procedure provides a multiplicity of benefits. Conclusions were the development of a BIA structure to guide analysis, as well as strategy determination and documentation. This text offers to learners, practitioners, and academicians information for the long and short term, BIA risk, and BIP management strategies.

Educational Edifices Need a Mobile Strategy to Fully Engage in Learning Activities
$37.50
Abstract
Research in mobile learning (m-learning) about technology and software and mobile learning's application to educationally related undertakings and long-term sustainability remains unclear. This chapter untwines the tangled information surrounding m-learning strategy by examining the drivers and perceptions of form-learning in the 21st century. The data will unearth the value of employing diverse modalities of m-learning. Administrators will gain knowledge to develop and implement a mobile strategy. Faculty will enhance their familiarity on the diverse types of m-learning tools and the value of employing m-learning in the classroom. Administrators and faculty members will gather knowledge that guides efforts to diminish barriers in support of a successful m-learning implementation. In addition, administrators will garner developed knowledge to analyze, gather requirements, develop, and then implement a strategic m-learning plan for long-term sustainability. Academics and practitioners will gain insight into understanding the balance of a mobile strategy amid economic value and the required controls.

Learning Management Systems: Understand and Secure Your Educational Technology (Chapter 14, pages 253-270)
Abstract
Learning management systems (LMSs) are significant in offering highly collaborative, widely accessible, and manageable learning solutions. It is feasible that learning solutions stakeholders pursue an in-depth understanding of the LMS and the vulnerabilities surrounding technology-enabled learning and teaching. The over 300 types of active LMSs, proprietary or open-source, are not off-limits to hackers. Past research shows that hackers compromise technology systems to ascertain personally identifiable information and interfere with the integrities of post-secondary institutions. Stakeholders must understand how to safeguard the LMS. To address LMS cybercrime concerns, this text reviews vulnerability information on over 12 LMS features. After reading this text, stakeholders will gain increased insight into their works to thwart security-related LMS incidents. This text can support stakeholders' knowledge in actions to take prior to the LMS reaching unacceptable vulnerability levels. Researchers and practitioners will benefit from this text's perspective on the LMS and mitigating risk.

Understanding the Impact of Inclusion in Disability Studies Education (Chapter 8, pages 186-213).
Abstract
Educators and practitioners are faced with the transitioning and intersection of two diverse disability studies education models—the medical model and the social model—and the models' effects on career development. This chapter focuses on how individuals with disabilities were transitioned into diversity and inclusion processes and then integrated into the organization and career development structure. Once left out of the measures of performance through education, learners with disabilities, in 1997, clearly became identified in the federal and state answerability systems. This chapter advocate for the social model. Additionally, respondents show how self-identifying as a person with a disability, even anonymously, can be difficult for some people. Readers will better understand the terms diversity, disability, and inclusion through the disability studies lenses, but the question remains, Have we come a long way, or are scholars and practitioners floundering in today's society and lacking understanding about diversity through unclear comprehension regarding disability?

Understanding the Impact of Inclusion in Disability Studies Education (Chapter 8, pages 186-213).
Abstract
For the development of social entrepreneurs, it is imperative that educators embrace the concepts and process of social entrepreneurship (Dees, 1998). Exploration of these concepts in education could prove beneficial to the community (Haugh, 2005). This chapter focuses on the positives of introducing social entrepreneurship education at the primary and secondary levels of education. Specifically, its central focus deals with building children's entrepreneurial self-efficacy at a young age. Several benefits, of increasing self-efficacy at a young age, are outlined. Benefits, such as entrepreneurship training, not only training students, but it helps to prepare them for the new knowledge-based economy. Further, entrepreneurship education should help increase the success and survival rates of women and minority entrepreneurs. Essential to this process, a new curriculum needs to be devised including its means of assessment. Lastly, barriers to an entrepreneurship program are discussed; this includes financial, legal, political, and negative perceptions of entrepreneurship education.
