Project
Organizations must implement countermeasures to protect information and data that are vulnerable to cyber attacks. As new security threats are introduced, these countermeasures must be evaluated and improved. In this project, you will investigate common types of cyberattacks and possible solutions, evaluate the costs of implementing identified countermeasures, and communicate the recommended solution to a nontechnical audience. Upon completion, you will present to management the most likely attack vectors against your organization and suggest solutions ranked by cost and effectiveness. You will also suggest how the mix of identified state and non-state actors should affect policy maker decisions and policy development for critical infrastructure protection. This is the final of four sequential projects. There are 15 steps in this project. Begin by reviewing the project scenario, then proceed to Step 1.
When you submit your project, your work will be evaluated using the competencies listed below. You can use the list below to self-check your work before submission.
1. Examine architectural methodologies used in the design and development of information systems.
2. Create an information security program and strategy, and maintain alignment of the two.
3. Evaluate international cybersecurity policy.
4. Evaluate enterprise cybersecurity policy.
5. Evaluate specific cybersecurity threats and the combination of technologies and policies that can counter them.
