Objectives Search for and read about a few recent occurrences of security breaches. Background / Scenario Security breaches occur when individuals or applications are trying to gain unauthorized access to data, applications, services, or devices. During these breaches, the attackers, whether they are insiders or not, attempt to obtain information that they could use for financial gains or other advantages. In this lab, you will explore a few security breaches to determine what was taken, what exploits were used, and what you can do to protect yourself. Required Resources • PC or mobile device with Internet access Security Breach Research a. Use the two provided links to security breaches from different sectors to fill out the table below. b. Search for a few additional interesting breaches and record the findings in the table below. How many victims? What exploits were used? Incident Affected Roforence

- A policy conundrum Your organization has the following statements regarding phishing/social engineering in the employee manual: All employees are required to complete annual security awareness training as provided by the Information Security team. Employees must successfully complete the training and achieve an established minimum score on any quizzes associated with the training. The organization will conduct routine evaluations of the effectiveness security awareness training through simulated phishing tests. Employees that incorrectly identify simulated phishing emails must complete additional security awareness training and their manager will be notified.

Compare and contrast information security threats and attacks. Give examples to support your point.
A security policy is a document that provides employees with clear instructions about acceptable use of company confidential information, explains how the company secures data resources and what it expects of the people who work with this information. Most importantly, the policy is designed with enough flexibility to be amended when necessary. You are working in organization X, and you are supposed to develop an issue-specific security policy, you can pick one issue from Table.1 [1] (In the photos) Your Task is: To develop the different sections of your policy and adequate procedure(s), you can refer to SANS Policy Templates [2].

Case study 1 Chapter 7 - Investigating Theft Act Assuming you are an agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, do the following: 1. Plan and coordinate an investigation in a manner that would not arouse suspicion from Cummings and Baptiste. 2. Create a vulnerability chart to coordinate the various elements of the possible fraud. 3. Assuming your investigation used surveillance and/ or covert investigation techniques, what types of surveillance and/or covert operations would you use? How would technology play a role in this part of the investigation? 4. Finally, how would analysis of physical evidence help in this investigation? What types of physical evidence would be especially helpful?

Having policies in place can mitigate the risk of physical security breachesC-suites and SBOs (Small Business Owners) indicated external threats from vendors or contractors(25% C-suites; 18% SBOs) and physical loss or theft of sensitive information (22% C-suites, 19%SBOs) are the top information security threats facing their business.Yet, the number of organizations with a known and understood policy for storing and disposing ofconfidential paper documents adhered to by all employees has declined 13% for C-suites (73% in 2019to 60% in 2020) and 11% for SBOs (57% in 2019 to 46% in 2020).In addition, 49% of SBOs have no policy in place for disposing of confidential information on end-of-lifeelectronic devices.While the work-from-home trend has risen over the years, the COVID-19 pandemic abruptly launchedemployees into work-from-home status, many without supporting policies.77% of C-suites and 53% of SBOs had employees who regularly or periodically work off-site.
