Task Overview Submissions Evaluation Report
COMPETENCIES
981.4.1 : Capstone
The learner integrates and synthesizes competencies from across the degree program, thereby
demonstrating the ability to participate in and contribute value to the chosen professional field.
INTRODUCTION
In this task, you will design the capstone project approved by your instructor. You will write a report about
the security problem you identified in Task 1 and compile the information for your solution to that security
problem into a report.
Your work for this task will not be evaluated until the appropriate forms from Task 1 have been submitted and
evaluated.
REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and
no more than a 10% match to anyone individual source can be directly quoted or closelyparaphrased from
sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided when you submit your task can be
used as o guide.
You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that
will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric
aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.
Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc., unless
specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are uploadedandsubmitted
as attachments (e.g., .docx,.pd(.ppt).
