Mission Statement : An Intrusion Detection System

* Set up training program for all employees on network security policies and any new changes to network security.

Physical security can be very complex, as the evolution of technology changes on a daily basis. The dual role concept is a dilemma that poses a constant struggle within the agency. The ability to maintain consistency with technological advancements utilizing physical security practices of the past is a significant challenge that FPS faces. Another area of concern is the complexity of security and the deficiency of training. Advancements in technology necessitate training advancements. From the initial understanding of basic alarm theory covering the simplistic concept and design of an intrusion detection system (IDS), to a system that is virtually state of the art in capability and technical

Textbooks can be wrong. Is it possible that watching the History Channel could be more informative than the average High School History class? Alia Wong points out in her article History Class and the Fictions about Race in America the topics of underqualified teachers, inaccurate textbooks and the inefficacy of history being taught at all grade levels. I, myself, can attest to this statement having been taught history by a teacher who taught from an extremely outdated textbook. I taught myself by quietly reading in every class. The way we teach history to our children is lacking a few fundamental truths that are essential to American history and how we teach it that underplays

There is a mess of servers, switches, switches, and inward equipment firewalls. Each of the association's areas is working with diverse data advances and foundation IT frameworks, provisions, and databases. Different levels of IT security and access administration have been actualized and inserted inside their individual areas. The data engineering framework is maturing and numerous areas are running on antiquated fittings and programming. Additionally, the framework is woefully out-of-dated regarding fixes and overhauls which significantly expand the danger to the arrange as far as classifiedness, trustworthiness, and accessibility.

The unified training for all levels of law enforcement ensures a common focus and standard are obtained, and that the necessary information is being transmitted to those who need it. As technology continues to advance, the threat of cyber attacks continue to rise as well. The stability of a nation's physical and electronic infrastructure is vital to the success of a nation. The efforts of both of these sections of the Department of Homeland Security are essential to the overall mission of keeping the nation

As such, our company’s people resources pose the greatest risk for security breach. Our way to help mitigate risk in this area is to keep communication lines open in this area and to continually mandate security knowledge training, with mandatory updates on a regular basis. When the employees are informed of company policy when facing a security matter, they are better equipped to act in the best or right way. In this way knowledge is power – or at least empowerment to act in the best interest of the company’s information security.

To understand the role(s) of a Security Manager, a person must know what security is and what it means to an organization. According to Ortmeier, “security may be defined as a public or private service-related activity that provides personnel, equipment, and creates policies and procedures designed to prevent or reduce losses. These losses, caused by criminal action as well as by noncriminal events resulting from human error, emergencies, man-made and natural disasters, and business intelligence collection by competitors”. (2009).

With another breach hitting the news (Anthem), I often wonder when companies will learn a lesson, a right lesson even. What I found fascinating about the recent Anthem breach, was that it was an employee of Anthem that discovered that something was wrong. Not a firewall, not an intrusion prevention system, not an intrusion detection system, not a web application firewall, or any other of the dozens of technologies I could mention. According to news reports [1], a database administrator noticed queries made with his/her account, that they never made. The employee reported it, and the trickle effect occurred spurring the notification of Anthem being breached. Kudos to the alert employee, and shame on the technology that failed Anthem. That in itself - “shame on the technology” - was not a fair statement but was somewhat meant to get your attention. Did it work?

Based on the previous design and development of the security awareness program for Advanced Topologies Inc, ATI it is needful to include in a matrix the security topics with the associated awareness materials by target audience in describing how when and with what frequency it will be delivered. The following matrix displays the above details.

The Main Purpose of Security Management and Security Measures must be Commensurate with the Threat

This assignment will introduce about a real life organization’s security, policy and practices. This assignment is implemented for a telecommunication organization in Malaysia which is MAXIS. Besides, there is a research about their ISMS plan and beneath will have further explanation about ISMS. There will be 10 steps to implement a certified ISMS system.

However, this does not detract that the industry does require security manager's or someone to lead. The MAIN purpose of security management is a means to implement some order and control, regulation and discipline within a company

In an e-commerce world, organizations are susceptible to hackers and intruders. Thus creating the information technology protection systems which is used to reduce the possibility of intrusions from occurring. Intrusions occur by uninvited outsiders (sometimes intruders can be internal users like employees) who try to access an organization’s information system using the internet with the intent to gain competitive advantage of some sort. Organizations depend on security technology to avoid loss from security breach, as well as to improve their efficiency and effectiveness. However, firewalls are also vulnerable to errors, and implementing a security technology comes with challenges and critical decisions that can possibly cause a financial burden on the organization if done without seriousness and commitment. “Information security is about managing risk, and managing risk is about discovering and measuring threats to information assets; and taking actions to respond to those threats” (Al-Awadi, & Renaud, 2007, p.3). This paper will discuss a few aspects that are involved with firewalls and intrusion detection systems.

The connection between our company’s network security and end users is clear with data that has been reported. We should not only provide antivirus software, but create an education program emphasizing prevention, detection and adopting a “security” way of life. Everyone, at all levels, is responsible for our security.

In this chapter it elaborates the previous used protocol, algorithm, technique and result, and additionally we have compared the present system with planned system variations to grasp the work in short.
