MANUAL OVERVIEW<\/h2>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

You are the training manager at CyberLeet Technologies, a midsized firm that provides cybersecurity services to other businesses. CyberLeet\u2019s core customer base is sole proprietorships and other mom-and-pop shops that are too small to have their own IT departments and budgets. Generally speaking, your clients have a reasonably high risk tolerance, and put a premium on the functionality of their IT systems over stringent security measures. However, you also have clients that must protect highly sensitive information in order to continue operating successfully. For example, CyberLeet supports a few small public-accounting firms that need to maintain important tax-related information, as well as several day-care businesses that must keep children\u2019s health records private while allowing necessary access for certain caregivers. In the past year, CyberLeet has experienced rapid growth, which means you can no longer personally provide one-on-one training to every new information security analyst as they are hired. Therefore, you have decided to create a training manual that will explain to the current and future cohorts of new hires the essential principles and practices that they must understand in order to be successful in their role as information security analysts at CyberLeet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Manual Layout<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

There are four sections in the manual, which cover all the components of a new employee training manual. As the training manager, you must complete each section using information you learned in this course. Refer to the background information on CyberLeet and apply the appropriate information that best matches based on the size of the company, the value of cybersecurity, and its core tenets. Apply best practices of cybersecurity principles for addressing the common threat scenarios of a sole proprietary business. The main sections of the manual you are responsible for completing are the following:<\/p>\n

          2. Time period between resets and ability to reuse a prior password\u00a0<\/li>\n
          3. Differentiated policies for different types of users (e.g., administrator vs. regular user)\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
          4. What principles should the information security analyst apply in order to develop appropriate\u00a0acceptable use policies\u00a0for the client? Make sure you address confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, as well as each of the following questions:\u00a0\n
              \n
            1. What should users generally be allowed to do with their computing and network resources? When and why would each example be allowable?\u00a0<\/li>\n
            2. What should users generally be prohibited from doing with their computing and network resources? When and why would each example require prohibition?\u00a0<\/li>\n
            3. When and why should users be aware of acceptable use policies and how can organizations keep track of these policies?\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n

                2. What types of physical access (with or without ID) to company areas is acceptable? Why?\u00a0<\/li>\n

                5. IV.\u00a0Threat Mitigation Scenarios:\u00a0For each of the hypothetical scenarios listed below, illustrate for the new hires the strengths and weaknesses of the different approaches. This will help new hires gain a more practical understanding of how to deal with these types of issues that they are likely to face in their day-to-day job.\u00a0<\/li>\n
                6. Theft:\u00a0In the last month, two break-ins have occurred at a client\u2019s office, which resulted in the theft of employee laptops during both incidents. The first incident occurred in the evening when the thieves broke through a ground-floor window. The second incident occurred during the day when the thieves walked right into the business area and removed two laptops. What physical and technical controls would be helpful to address the issue and prevent this type of vulnerability in the future? Compare and contrast the different methods that could be used to mitigate the given threat.\u00a0<\/li>\n
                7. Malware:\u00a0Recently, one of your client\u2019s staff has been inundated with phishing emails that are targeted at individuals and related to current business opportunities for the company. These messages are linked to malware and sent by known threat actors. What physical and technical controls would be helpful to address the issue and prevent this type of vulnerability in the future? Compare and contrast the different methods that could be used to mitigate the given threat.\u00a0<\/li>\n
                8. Your choice:\u00a0Create your own illustrative scenario of a common threat that an information security analyst may face. Explain what physical and technical controls would be helpful to address your chosen issue and prevent that type of vulnerability in the future, and compare and contrast the different methods that could be used to mitigate the given threat.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
