Friction Free Network

Individual users play an important role in any form of institution or organization but concerns are raised about the security. The network administrators clearly lay down a set of rules, regulations and protocols that an individual user has to agree accordingly upon which part of the resources and what class of service that the user can obtain.

This analysis discusses some issues and requirements to correct these issues that are outlined in the Turn Key University (TKU) data breach case study. In addition to these issues and requirements, some applicable laws will be discussed and some controls will be suggested for implementation.

The best network design to ensure the security of Corporation Techs internal access while retaining public Web site availability consists of several layers of defense in order to protect the corporation’s data and provide accessibility to employees and the public.

This paper will review the events that lead to the breach of DigiNotar and the factors that would have mitigated it, and develops a security policy document for my mid-sized organization “Cañar Networking Organization”. The paper will include measures to protect against breaches and act as a proactive defense. It defines the segments of policy that are purpose, audience, document information and scope for the success of organization. This paper also develops the policy criteria that protect the organization from

The threat is incredibly serious—and growing. Our nation’s critical infrastructure, including both private and public sector networks, are targeted by adversaries. American companies are targeted for trade secrets and other sensitive data, and universities for their cutting-edge research and development. Citizens from anywhere across the globe are targeted by fraudsters and identity thieves, and children are targeted by online predators. Just as the FBI transformed itself to better address the terrorist threat after the 9/11 attacks, this means enhancing the Cyber Division’s investigative capacity to have strong sharp focus on intrusions into government and private computer like network to.hospitals, school districts, state and local governments, law enforcement agencies like the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Central Intelligence Agency, Drug Enforcement Administration, National Security Agency, Naval Criminal investigative Service and Department Of Defense, small businesses, large businesses these are just many who have been impacted by ransomware, a threat type of malware that encrypts, or locks, valuable digital files and

Cydome provides unique solution that directed to enterprises in order to help them secure their source code and data. As part of their strategy, they publish reports and numbers that shows the growing phenomena of data loss and breach. I think that the problem that they are trying to solve is increasing worldwide and relevant today more than ever.

In 1997 the National Security Agency (NSA) tested the Pentagon’s cyber security in an exercise named “Eligible Receiver”. Within two days of the exercise, the NSA team had penetrated the classified command network and was in complete control of network. Two years later, the United States Air Force experienced a computer breach in which huge amounts of data were being exfiltrated from research files located on airbases. “Gigantic amounts of data were being shipped out from a lot of computers in the Defense Network and from many data systems in the national nuclear laboratories of the Energy Department.” (Clarke, p. 111) File case named “Moonlight Maze”, by the FBI day-lighted two important aspects of information security. Computer specialist

Miller Inc. which is in the business of providing data collection and analytics services relies majorly on network security to keep its competitive advantage. This is because the customers that rely on the company's system trust that since there are sufficient security measures that have been ensured, they can store their data securely. Each of the functional models of the system should have sufficient security measures to ensure that complete security of the whole system architecture is achieved. The three functional modules are the backend module, services or operation module and customer access module. The major relationship between infrastructure and security comes in the role they play to ensure that the end user gets the data that they need when they need it and in the best way possible. Therefore for the three modules, there is a need to balance security with the right infrastructure.

Company A agreed to cooperate with investigators not knowing that their systems had been breached. Ubizen’s investigators began to search through the company’s servers and found that the information had in fact come from their systems (Sartin, 2014). Company A was storing magnetic strip information on its servers. That type of information was not to be stored on their systems. Further investigation led to the discovery of software not stored on their system by an administrator (Sartin, 2014). This was a backdoor program called HackerDefender. This information made it seem that it was not an inside job, but rather the work of a cybercriminal hacking the network from the outside (Sartin, 2014).

With the increase in threats over the past few years it is no longer acceptable for an organization to feel data is protected

Computer viruses are minute program which is “embedded inside an application or within a data file which can copy itself into another program“(Adams et al, 2008 ) for the sole determination of meddling with normal computer operations. The consequences may range from corruption and deletion of data; propagation of virus on to network and deployment through attachments through emails in order to further creating havoc to all associated computing devices.

Advanced Research Corporation (ARC) has grown quickly in the last five years. During that time, ARC has seen a large expansion in its data and communications network. Because of its success, ARC has seen cyber-attacks on its network with attempts to steal its

There are numerous ways one can gain unauthorized access to data maintained in the cloud’s data centers. The methods vary from physical theft to trickery and electronic attack. Common methods of attack include cracking weak passwords, privilege escalation, exploiting unused database functionality, targeting known unfixed software vulnerabilities, SQL injection, and stealing unencrypted back-up tapes (Higgins, 2008).

The Network Security Products (NSP) branch understands that classified, sensitive information cannot be protected unless it has the proper safeguards and security system in place. Capitol Technology University student, Samantha Fitzpatrick, has been tasked to conduct a risk assessment of the LabNet system. This Risk Assessment Report checks the systems/users provided to eliminate and mitigate any vulnerabilities found in the risk assessment.

Almost all kind of large and small organizations might face increasing number of attacks into their network or intellectual property. This may lead to data disclosure, data destruction, and damage of organization’s reputation. There are numerous threats in the cyber space which might be capable of stealing, destroying or making use of out sensitive data for financial and non-financial gains. As the amount of computer, mobile and internet users increases, so does the number of exploiters.
