Executive management is asking for a new manufacturing control and workflow automation solution. This application will facilitate management of proprietary information and closely guarded corporate trade secrets. The information security team has been a part of the department meetings and come away with the following notes:

• Human resources would like complete access to employee data stored in

the application. They would like automated data interchange with the employee management application, a cloud-based SaaS application.

• Sales is asking for easy order tracking to facilitate feedback to

customers.

• Legal is asking for adequate safeguards to protect trade secrets.

They are also concerned with data ownership questions and legal jurisdiction.

• Manufacturing is asking for ease of use. Employees working the

assembly line cannot be bothered with additional steps or overhead. System interaction needs to be quick and easy.

• Quality assurance is concerned about managing the end product and

tracking overall performance of the product being produced. They would like read-only access to the entire workflow process for monitoring and baselining. The favored solution is a user friendly software application that would be hosted onsite. It has extensive ACL functionality, but also has readily available APIs for extensibility. It supports read- only access, kiosk automation, custom fields, and data encryption. Which of the following departments' request is in contrast to the favored solution?
