You are part of a team selected by the Chief Information Officer (CIO) to perform a security audit for one of the companies explored in this course:

• Devil’s Canyon      (Wks 4–5)

Create a 10- to 12-slide presentation (not including the title and reference slides) that shows the results of your security audit based on the following audit process:

• Potential Risk      to be Reviewed: Describe the risk. (10pts)
  • Example:       Viruses and malware can negatively impact the confidentiality, integrity,       and availability of organizational data.
• Regulation and      Compliance Issues: Analyze how regulations and compliance issues could      impact the organization. (10pts)
  • Provide a       detailed analysis of regulations and compliance issues, beyond the simple       explanation in score point two.
• Regulation and      Compliance Resources and Tools: Analyze what resources and/or tools are      available to address regulations and compliance issues. (10pts) 
• Describe the      control objective and the specific controls you will evaluate to determine      potential risk is mitigated. Please note that typically, there will be more      than one control that should be reviewed for a potential risk. (10pts)
  • Example:       Determine whether anti-virus software is in use.
  • Example:       Determine whether virus signatures are periodically updated.
  • Example:       Determine whether periodic virus scans are performed.
• Provide a      detailed analysis of the resources and/or tools available, beyond the      simple explanation in score point two. (10pts)
• IT Security –      Processes and Methods: Differentiate between the various processes      and methods involved in management of IT security resources.
  • Review the       various options available to address those processes and methods       previously explained, and which ones might be feasible. (10pts)
• IT Security –      Measures: Analyze the various security measures that could be taken within      the organization. (15pts)
  • Demonstrate a       detailed understanding of what the alternatives are to approach security,       how much security is needed, different methods to employ, etc.
  • Describe the       criteria/measures that you will use to evaluate the adequacy of each       area/review step that you review (i.e., what criteria will you use to       perform your evaluation/how will you determine that the risk has been       mitigated to an acceptable level).
  • Example: 100%       of servers and PCs have virus software installed.
  • Example: 100%       of the virus software installed is set to automatically update, including       virus signatures.
  • Example: 100%       of the virus software installed is set to automatically perform a scan at       least weekly.

Include a 1/2- to 1-page executive summary to support your presentation. Include appropriate references. (10pts)

Note: The title page and reference page do not count toward the assignment – power point and summary – length requirements.

  Use the Internet, regional or state newspapers, or professional journals to search for requests for proposals.

a. Copy the RFPs and bring them to class for discussion.

b. From a careful reading of one RFP, identify the problem or need.

c. Identify the audience the proposal writer needs to address.

d. Brainstorm a list of ideas to include in the proposal’s introduction.

Search the Internet and locate an article that relates to the topic of HACKING and summarize the reading in your own words. Your summary should be 2-3 paragraphs in length and uploaded as a TEXT DOCUMENT. Click the link above to submit your work. There is an EXAMPLE attached to show you the format requirements.

What is most important is that you use YOUR OWN WORDS to summarize the news article. It is essential that you do not copy text directly from the Internet. Plagiarism is unacceptable. You can easily avoid this by rephrasing the contents and summarizing it using your own words.A reference citation is also required for this assignment. You may just include a link to your article.

  Chapter 3: Requirements and analysis. This should state, in a more detailed way, the  objectives of the project by requirement and the analysis should break the problem down into  manageable steps. There may be more than one suitable approach; the analysis may cover more  of the area than is finally implemented. Suitable diagram-techniques (e.g. UML, other drawings)  should be used where appropriate. If a method is applied selectively, explain which parts were  used and why. Experimental projects should pay careful attention to control conditions, samples  selected, etc. to ensure a valid result. Testing and evaluation should be given due consideration.  It is important that you state how you will evaluate your work. For a design project it is  appropriate to consider testing at the same time as specification.
