Security Controls for Attack Vectors

Security Controls for Attack Vectors

Understanding which threat agents and vectors are targeting a particular healthcare organization (e.g., hospital, health insurance provider, biomedical device supplier, etc.) can be difficult, as the threat agents (i.e., hackers) are continually changing their attack vectors.

Research common attack vectors that can be perpetrated against a typical hospital.

Using the Wk 2 Template, which identifies three common attack vectors, complete the 1-page table with the recommended security controls from NIST SP 800-53a that would potentially mitigate the risk resulting from those attacks.
