POSTINCIDENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY REPORT
Unit 10
Jordan Rosenow
ITT Technical Institute
Introduction
The purpose of this meeting is to inform you of a security breach that occurred in our company, and to inform you of what has been affected, how we found out, and what measures have been used to correct and prevent this from happening again. The following is a bulleted list of relevant information related to the security breach.
• IDS system noticed an attack from an outside entity.
• IDS sent a notification to all members of the IT department.
• Segregation of affected system as soon as possible and investigation begins to establish the amount of damage.
• Virus and malware scans used to gain information and clean affected system
• Reimage

The following will be a few practices and procedures that need to be adhered to as well as specific needs to address the bullets above.
The single most important thing we can do to reduce our attack surface is called User awareness and training. Most cyber-attacks come from the area of Social engineering. Social engineering is a combination of anything we do socially that may be used to gain information or exploit a situation based solely on an individual’s actions. These include gathering information from Facebook about someone and where they work for extortion or information gathering. Another would be simply leaving a rather expensive thumb drive on the ground in hopes someone will pick it up bring it into their office and plug it in releasing an automated attack or installing a backdoor for the attacker. With proper user awareness and training most cyber-attacks could be thwarted before they even have a chance to be used.
The bulleted list can be corrected mostly by updating antivirus and anti-malware software definitions and scanning regularly. Monitoring of logs and then hardening the network to anything we have
Again I would not use any equipment I have not been fully trained on. I would ensure I am wearing correct clothing and footwear when moving and positioning an individual, to avoid risk of being harmed, for example I would not wear open shoes or sandals while using a hoist. I would need to check my surroundings (enough room, loose rugs, furniture in the way) and the equipment being used (enough charge, no loose wires, and sling clean and intact). Infection control also plays a part in this too, correct PPE (personal protective equipment) should be worn and hands washed. NEVER rush when moving and/or positioning an individual.
Evaluate the skills and techniques required to successfully perform in two different land-based outdoor and adventurous activities
Safeguarding is a term which is broader than ‘child protection’ and relates to the action the commission takes to promote the welfare of children and protect them from harm. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.
Executive - Mainly used by the President, this power enforces the law. This power also grants the ability to veto the proposal for a law, appoint federal posts, negotiate foreign treaties, appoint federal judges, and grant pardons for a crime.

Customized function and feature application software package would possibly at risk of malware and bug.
Effective cyber security reduces the risk of a cyber attack and protects entities, organisations and individuals from the
Write a policy for each of the above, and write a procedure to explain how each of the policies will be implemented. Four policies are four procedures are required
All kidding aside, the threats are very real and the need is pressing in ways that I believe the average person doesn’t understand. Cybersecurity will continue to be one of the most critical issues the U.S. faces today in both the civilian and government/military sectors. Regardless of best intentions of those involved, a primarily legislative or regulatory solution will not have the end result desired. The issue is that legislation will fail to improve security and may actually lower it by providing a false sense of security and a possible level of complacency that will not allow for vital levels of security to be developed.
IT Security breach notification is to provide general guidance to Princeton University’s staff and supervisions who manage IT resources enable quick and efficient
The last requirement that I should mention to you is human resources controls; this principle will include: Bond employees who handle cash, rotate employees and require employees to take vacation and conduct backgrounds check.
Normally computer security depends on protecting the system from an attack but people do not pay attention to how to handle an attack once it happens. If one were to pay attention to the news you would notice that cyber
According to Norton, a well-known security software company, always ensure that your computer software is up to date and apply patches to the software when it becomes available to lessen a hacker attack on your system. Having up firewalls will discourage the hacker and motivate them to find a less vulnerable victim. Also change your password every 90 days, at least, into words or phrases that are not in the dictionary.
Make sure antivirus software is up to date and you have secure software and hardware firewalls.
Also each day more and more virus is passed over the internet, most though emails. So how are we to prevent this? Well
