Scenario
Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect, reporting to the Chief Enterprise Architect, at a technology company.
The company uses the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework for its Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice. The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is the sponsor of the activity. The EA practice uses an iterative approach for its architecture development. This has enabled the decision-makers to gain valuable insights into the different aspects of the business.
The nature of the business is such that the data and the information stored on the company systems is the company's major asset and is highly confidential. The company employees travel a lot for work and need to communicate over public infrastructure. They use message encryption, secure internet connections using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and other standard security measures. The company has provided computer security awareness training for all its staff. However, despite good education and system security, there is still a need to rely on third-party suppliers for infrastructure and software.
The Chief Security Officer (CSO) has noted an increase in ransomware (malicious software used in ransom demands) attacks on companies with a similar profile. The CSO recognizes that no matter how much is spent on education and support, the company could be a victim of a significant attack that could completely lock them out of their important data.
A risk assessment has been completed, and the company has looked for cyber insurance that covers ransomware. The price for this insurance is very high. The CTO recently saw a survey that said 1 out of 4 businesses that paid ransoms could not get their data back, and almost thesame number were able to recover the data without paying. The CTO has decided not to get cyber insurance to cover ransom payment.
You have been asked to describe the steps you would take to strengthen the current architecture to improve data protection.

You are employed as an Enterprise Architect at a technology company, reporting directly
to the Chief Enterprise Architect. The company supplies personnel and delivers cloud-
based solutions to numerous government agencies.
The nature of the business is such that the data and the information stored on the
company systems is the company's major asset and is highly confidential. The company
employees work remotely and need constant access to the company systems, which is
done by the public infrastructure. They use message encryption, secure internet
connections using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and other standard security
measures. The company provides computer security awareness training for all its staff.
The Chief Security Officer (CSO) has noted an increase in distributed denial of service
(DDoS) attacks on companies with a similar profile. The CSO understands that even
with thorough preparation, a major attack could stop employees from being able to do
their jobs. This could lead to a large financial loss, damage to the company's reputation
with customers, and employees being unable to work.
A risk assessment has been completed and the company has looked for cyber insurance
that covers such attacks. The price for this insurance is very high. The CTO has decided
not to get cyber insurance to cover such attacks.
The company follows the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework for its
Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice. The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is the sponsor
of the activity. The practice uses an iterative approach for its architecture development.

You are employed as an Enterprise Architect within a clinical research and health
technologies company. The company is dedicated to transforming healthcare with
new ideas and advancements. The company has multiple divisions that cover different
aspects of the business.
The company's Enterprise Architecture (EA) department has mature, well-developed
architecture governance and development processes following the TOGAF standard.
In addition to the EA program, the company has a number of management
frameworks in use. The Architecture Board includes representatives from each
division of the company. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is the sponsor of the
Enterprise Architecture program. The CIO has actively encouraged architecting with
agility within the EA department as the preferred approach for projects.
Many of the company's rivals have begun using Artificial Intelligence (Al) in their
operations, and the indications are that this will be transformative for healthcare
delivery. This is something the EA department has been interested in for a while, and
they had recently submitted an architecture Change Request which was approved. As
a result, the CIO has approved a Request for Architecture Work to investigate the
implementation of Al in the company.
Areas for evaluation include:
How can staff use Al daily in their current roles?
How can Al enhance access to care for patients, and how to make that experience
seamless?
How can Al offer new workplace platforms and tools to increase efficiency?
Some of the top managers are worried about a change in the way of working, and if it
will achieve the goals. Many are not confident that the company's risk management
processes are adequate for a company-wide integration of generative Al. There are
also questions from staff about whether enough specific guidelines and polices have
been put in place for responsible use of Al.

Scenario
You are working as an Enterprise Architect within an Enterprise Architecture (EA) team at a large government agency. The agency has multiple divisions.
The agency has a well-established EA practice and follows the TOGAF standard as its method for architecture development. Along with the EA program, the agency also uses various management frameworks, including business planning, project/portfolio management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the Chief Information Officer (CIO), who has actively promoted architecting with agility within the EA department as her preferred approach for projects.
The government has mandated that the agency prepare themselves for an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-first world, which they have called their ''AI-first'' plan. As a result, the agency is looking to determine the impact and role that AI will play moving forward. The CIO has approved a Request for Architecture Work to look at how AI can be used for services across the agency. She has noted that digital platforms will be a priority for investment in order to scale the AI applications planned. Using AI to automate tasks and make things run smoother is seen as a big advantage. Process automation and improved efficiency from manual, repetitive activities have been identified as the key benefits of applying generative AI to their agency's business. This will include back-office automation, for example, for help center agents who receive hundreds of email inquiries. This should also improve services for citizens by making them more efficient and personalized, tailored to each individual's needs.
Many of the agency leaders are worried about relying too much on AI. Some leaders think their employees will need to learn new skills. Some employees are worried they might lose their jobs to AI. Other leaders worry about security and cyber resilience in the digital platforms needed for AI to be successful.
The leader of the Enterprise Architecture team has asked for your suggestions on how to address the concerns, and how to manage the risks of a new architecture for the AI-first project.
