Introduction
Cyber-attacks is one of the serious concern in
the businesses and it has to reduced for the well
and effective productivity. A cyber-attack can be
able to disabled the computers, steal the data,
or use a breached computer as a launch point
for other attacks.

Research “aim”
To functionally examine the impact of cyber-attack on
productivity of an organisation. A study on Microsoft company.
Research “objective”
• To develop basic understanding the cyber-attack.
• To explore the impact of cyber-attack on productivity of
Microsoft.
• To identify the effective ways that would be useful in
resolving the issue of cyber-attack on Microsoft.

The issue
Cyber-attack is seems out to be the major issue in recent
years. It is because it reflected out as a threat of cyber
bullying and struck out of all the sensitive information of
the company. In relation with the Microsoft company, has
been recently facing the major threats including cloud
vulnerability, smart contract hacking, social engineering
attacks, deep fake and many others.

Literature review
• An author of England Mirshsa H., suggested that
cyber issues have been majorly affected the systems
of information and there are different types of
malicious attacks.
• The productivity of the Microsoft company have
been badly impacted because Microsoft is one of
the computer platform and millions of users have
their person as well as reflective data, in a lot of
ways.
• The resolving of the Cyber-attacks issues that can
simply arises are protecting the files and the devices
and Practicing the smart cyber security

Research methodology
• The research methodology is one of the efficient and significant part of the
research project because it can functionally refers to the process of gathering and
analysing the data figures so that there must be an effective essential process
regarding the field of study.
• Research philosophies: It refers to the processes which have been significantly
used by the researcher in analysing, collecting and usage of several information
about the studies topic.
• Research approach: It is one of the process of researchers for various researches
and the main purpose of the research approach is to have an effective and
collective information. The research approaches are of two types including
deductive and inductive.

• Methodological research choice: the research choices in terms of
methodology are quantitative and qualitative research choices.
• Research strategies: It refers to the proper and the most effective,
significant procedure which suggest that there is a need to have
information and data collection on the basis of several research
strategies.
• Time horizon: It refers to one of the important factor which can simply
happened on the basis of type of research within a given period of time
It refers to a section of approaches in which there are some effective
cross sectional and the longitudinal approach

Conclusion
The above discussion is based on research proposal on cyber-attacks which
impact towards the organisation. The discussion includes aims and objectives
of Cyber-attacks. A literature review based on the cyber-security. A research
methodology is also presented above. There is a need to have quantitative sets
of data to be use so that there must be a significant and reliable source and it
must be primary source of data from all the employees who are working in
Microsoft so that a proper structure and effective way to tackle and resolve
the issue of Cyber-attacks.

Threat of New Entry. The position of the organisation can be
affected on the basis of people’s ability to enter into the market. It
can be easily done. It is very easy to get a foothold in the industry or
in the market. The cost and the way sector has been regulated are all
included in the treat of the new entry. In a market, if any
organisation can entering and make a complete effectiveness then
the rivals have been quickly enter into the market and weaker the
position. If you have strong and durable barriers to entry, then you
can preserve a favourable position and take fair advantage of it.
