Computer Security Objectives

This is a report on an authorized penetration test against the site located at http://192.168.0.1/isihack/shop.aspx. The testing occurred at my testing facility in Grand Ledge, MI. The testing occurred between the dates of 2/16/2016 and 2/20/2016 after written authorization was received from Jerry Emerick. The scope of the test was discussed on 2/15/2016 with Jerry Emerick. The following areas were the focus of the assessment:

2.1Common Control IdentificationDescribe common security controls in place in the organization. Are the controls included in the security plan?

Mortgage Connect is committed to protecting both its proprietary and customer data. To do this, MC has established a formal information security program to ensure appropriate controls are in place to safeguard sensitive data from unauthorized access or disclosure. The MC security program is comprised of both technical and procedural controls. MC has employed advanced next generation firewalls with Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) at the network perimeter configured in pairs for high availability. Public facing systems are segmented within a DMZ, isolated from internal systems by a pair of next generation firewalls protecting the intranet. All servers reside within either MC’s primary or secondary data center. Data centers are enterprise class

To address vulnerability plugin 106800 / KB4074594 Cumulative Update, the Web Developer obtained and installed this on servers: ReportsPW1, GTN-WDS-APP-P01, EGTN-DMZSQL-01, EGTN-WDS-WEB1.

Setting up a new computer can be a very intimidating task. There are several steps to ensure that your computer has the necessary setup for the best protection. Some of which include, the operating system settings that are built-into the computer, properly setup of firewall, security settings on the web browser configured correctly, and strong anti-virus software installed to protect the computer. After the computer is setup with a reasonable standard of security, a strong policy for passwords should be implemented to ensure account security along with ensuring the sites you utilize are in fact secure and who they say they are.

Refer to the handout Testing and Monitoring Security Controls. It contains information on security events or breaches and baseline anomalies.

The framework of security policy is defined to construct a structure by the help of which policy gaps can be identified in an easy manner. A system specific policy would assist to ensure that all employees and management comply with the policies. This is also used to maintain the confidentiality for user authentication would assist in the confidentiality aspect of security, maintain integrity (There are several limiting rules or constraints which are distinct in the relational data model and whose work is to maintain the data’s accuracy and maintain its integrity.), availability and authenticity of the system. Access controls are a collection of mechanisms that work together to create security architecture to protect the assets of an information system. One of the goals of access control is personal accountability, which is the mechanism that proves someone performed a computer activity at a specific point in time. So, the framework acts as the guideline

This Enterprise Security Plan (ESP) for Riordan Manufacturing employees the levels of security required to protect the network and resources utilized to communicate. It is intended purpose is to formulate a means to counterattack against security risk from potential threat. The ESP servers as a way to identify risks and to ensure a contingency plan is in place to protect the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of the Riordan organization's information technology (IT) system. The ESP benefits all employees however it is most beneficial to information resource managers, computer security officials, and administrators as it is a good tool to use for establishing

Other security elements are in reference to data recovery, database administration, handling a breach in security and administrative security policies such as access procedure, employee transfer and excessive user access. As I assume the role of the chief security officer, database designer, database administrator, and chief applications designer this project is very important to the armed services and the Virgin Islands National Guard as we strive to provide global security.

Maintain strict proper ID access control policies, standards, and guidelines. Implementation of second-level identification authorization testing procedures for sensitive applications, data and systems

-evaluate the impact of such a breach on the security of confidential information and on the infrastructure of the website.

Faults are a precise interaction of hardware and software that can be fixed given enough time.

Other areas that must be given serious consideration and one that has already been stated as a concern for the company is environmental “hacktivists” who are upset about DBR’s involvement in offshore oil drilling. These individuals or groups will utilize many types of attacks to achieve their goal. The utilization of malware (viruses, spyware, Trojans and worms), Denial of Services (DoS, DDoS) attacks are common items used by these groups. Another area that must be considered by any company, but especially a company that is growing is the unauthorized use of assets, resources, or information. By

As global security continues to grow exponentially in response to threats of cyber terrorism, the field of computer security continues to proliferate into many adjacent socioeconomic and technologically-based areas of society. Gartner Group, a leading market research in the enterprise IT industry, has stated that the worldwide market for security software will reach $21B in 2011, rising to $15.8B in 2015 (Karjalainen, Siponen, 2011). This rapid growth of computer security is also driving the development of entirely new patents in the areas of cryptography, enterprise security management strategies, and extensive support for more advanced programming features for securing enterprise networks (Albrechtsen, 2007). The pace of development in this market is accelerating as the sophistication and variety of threats continues to also exponentially escalate (Liang, Xue, 2010).
