Adviser Meeting and Topic Mod

Met today with the advisers and as expected they killed my ideas once more.  They were nicer about it this time though.  I taped the session this time.  Based on what I understood them say, they are focused on two areas:

• How am I going to prove my hypothesis?
• My data needs to be either original (I got it first hand) or else be academically sound, that is published or I must have access to the source

So these are the two areas I will focus on for the next 8 weeks.  Our next meeting in September 7.  I also located several places on the web for getting data.  I will be calling them on Monday to see about getting data.  Emailed Dr. Ron Ross to talk to him about the first point.  I am leaning towards modifying my topic further to make it simpler:

Current:
Mobile Device Management (MDM) Systems within an organization's Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) environment: A Systems Engineering Optimization of Technology and Policy Management

Modified to:

Mobile Device Management (MDM) Systems within an Organization's Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) environment

A Systems Engineering Optimization of Technology and Policy Management with an Acceptable Level of Risk: Case Study in the Financial Sector

It's kind of long and I like to shorten it some.  I have to work on it some more.  The idea here is that given a situation, in this case a Financial Company for example, how to implement MDM to allow BYOD to be productive and mitigate the risks to a level acceptable to the organization.  The question remains: how can I prove it?  I was thinking doing risk analysis of what the organization's risk level of BYOD (a number or collection of numbers) would be before the combination of MDM and Policy Management and the risk, and what would the risk level of BYOD would be after implementation or at least the projected risk level after modeling.  It's a lot of work but perhaps I am onto something.
