- What is the main goal for this project?
-
Main Project Objective:
- The main objective of this project is to develop a comprehensive cybersecurity framework that ensures Agora Tutoring meets critical data protection regulations and implements robust identity and access management practices. By the end of the project, students are expected to have designed and potentially prototyped solutions that align with industry standards and legal requirements, enhancing the security posture of the platform while fostering trust among its users.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
Specific Goals:
Regulatory Compliance Enhancement:
- Problem: Agora Tutoring needs to ensure that its operations comply with data protection regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. The platform must handle personal and sensitive information with the highest standards of privacy and security.
- Outcome: Students will create a compliance roadmap and detailed action plan that includes policy development, technological adjustments, and compliance verification mechanisms to meet specific regulatory requirements.
Identity and Access Management System Development:
- Problem: The current identity and access management (IAM) practices at Agora Tutoring may not sufficiently protect against unauthorized access or internal data breaches. There is a need to reinforce these systems to safeguard user data.
- Outcome: Students will design an IAM framework that incorporates multi-factor authentication, role-based access controls, and regular audit capabilities. The project should result in a prototype or a detailed design that can be implemented to enhance data security.

Executive Summary:
Agora Tutoring is an online marketplace akin to Kijiji, equipped with a map function similar to Uber, specializing in connecting students with local tutors for in-person educational sessions.
Company Overview:
Agora Tutoring is an online dedicated platform that connects students with local tutors for in-person educational sessions. By focusing exclusively on face-to-face interactions, Agora Tutoring aims to foster a more personalized and effective learning experience. The platform serves as a bridge between students seeking tailored educational support and independent tutors looking for meaningful teaching opportunities in their local areas.
Services:
Agora Tutoring provides a user-friendly web platform where students can search for and connect with tutors across a variety of subjects and educational levels. The service is designed to facilitate in-person tutoring engagements, enabling direct interaction and hands-on learning that virtual platforms cannot replicate.
Business Model:
Agora operates on a subscription-based model where users pay a monthly fee to access the platform and connect with tutors. Tutors, as independent contractors, set their own rates and schedules by connecting through Agora Tutoring. This model ensures a steady revenue stream for the platform while also providing tutors with a consistent flow of potential students.
Target Market:
The platform primarily targets students at all academic levels who prefer or require in-person tutoring to achieve their educational goals. This includes K-12 students, college students, and adult learners seeking professional development or personal enrichment in specific subjects. Parents looking for reliable and accessible tutors for their children are also a key demographic.
Strategic Goals:
Agora Tutoring aims to become the leading provider of in-person tutoring services within local communities. Strategic objectives include expanding its user base, increasing the number of tutors on the platform, and enhancing the overall user experience with features that make scheduling and session management more efficient for both students and tutors.
Competitive Advantage:
Agora Tutoring’s commitment to exclusively in-person tutoring sessions sets it apart in an era where virtual platforms are prevalent. This focus on local, face-to-face interactions not only improves learning outcomes but also builds a sense of community and trust among users. Additionally, the subscription model offers users unlimited access to potential tutoring, providing flexibility and value that single-session fees cannot match.
