Week 12: IT Security

During this last week of Discussion Questions, I would ask that you reflect that you consider at least one of the following:

1. Which security threats did you become aware of during this capstone class?  How would you mitigate against this threat?
2. What mitigation methods did you become aware of for the first time during this capstone class? Why is that mitigation method unique, more efficient or effective, or otherwise significant?

 

For this week’s “In the News”, locate an article that discusses one of the following:

1. new security threats
2. changing security threats
3. reduced security threats?

In regards to the threats that you have identified, how does the threat change the steps that the organization would take to mitigate, or lessen, the risk from that threat?
