This paper explores the most significant security vulnerability that information technology (IT) professionals face in the future. It provides definitions, dissimilarities between vulnerabilities, risks, threats, and risk along with real-world examples of each. This conclusion is the result of several research reports from various sources, to include IT professionals such as the Apple Developers who propose that there are several variations of vulnerabilities which exist, Microsoft, and The Certified

Vulnerabilities are always developing as attackers keep discovering the new purposes of flaws to obtain entrance into IT environments. Understanding the weakness/vulnerabilities in the framework of the enterprise is significant step towards decreasing the influence of the vulnerability on the network or enterprise and thus, solving it. This not only takes care of the issue but rather make the association aware about the reasons that can bring about the vulnerabilities and hence lessen aware about

Vulnerability is defined as the capability of or susceptibility to being wounded or hurt, as by a weapon; open to assault; difficult to defend . IT managers face many aspects of vulnerability everyday and it is rapidly growing. This study is an attempt to show that most important cybersecurity vulnerability facing IT managers today is trust of the end user. Overall, an end user working within any capacity can be easily compromised through BYOD use and cause possible damage to an IT infrastructure

section{Literature Review}label{sec:lit_review} Security breaches are a well-known problem that have been solved in different ways: automatic detection tools cite{li2010comparative}, documentation of best practicescite{owasp2015} and software development process activities (such as penetration testing cite{arkin2005software}, modeling cite{mcdermott1999using, swiderski2004threat}, architectural analysis cite{halkidis2008architectural,mcdermott1999using,howard2003writing} and so on).

1. Introduction Security is a standout amongst the most difficult and complex issue in Information Technology (IT) today. Security causes millions of dollars loss to the different organizations every year. Even if 99% of all assaults result from known vulnerabilities and flawed misconfigurations, an answer is most certainly not direct. With a crowd of networks, operating system and application related vulnerabilities, security specialists are getting the opportunity to be logically aware of the need

Cyber threats to the energy infrastructure are pervasive. Reports have indicated numerous attempts to enter the nation’s information technology architectures are credible. Is has become common today that threats come from many origins. Some threats are traced from intentional or accidental incidents. Likewise, some threats toward the energy infrastructures come from a disgruntled employee or points of origin traced from foreign nations, seeking opportunities to exploit or cripple the nation’s infrastructures
