Create a report detailing user access policies based on research.Explain the details of user policy creation in organizations.ScenarioYou work for a large, private health care organization that has server, mainframe, and RSA user access. Your organization requires identification of the types of user access policies provided to its employees.Sean, your manager, just came into your office at 6:00 p.m. on Friday and asks you to write a report detailing these user access policies. He needs you to research a generic template and use that as a starting point from which to move forward. He wants you to complete this task over the weekend as he has just been given a boatload of tasks in the management meeting which ended a few minutes ago. He is counting on you to take some of the load off his shoulders. The report is due to senior management next week.Assignment RequirementsLook for existing policy templates and examples from organizations of similar type. Write a report detailing these user access policies based on your research, and place them into a table with an introduction explaining the following: who, what, when, why. Be sure to add a conclusion with a rationale for your selection. Reference your research so Sean may add or refine this report before submission to senior management.Required ResourcesNoneSubmission RequirementsFormat: Microsoft WordFont: Arial, 12-Point, Double-SpaceCitation Style: Your school’s preferred style guideLength: 3–4 pages

Module 1 Discussion QuestionSearch “scholar.google.com” for a company, school, or person that has been the target of a network or system intrusionwithin the past 5 years?What information was targeted? Was the attack successful? If so, what changeswere made to ensure that this vulnerability was controlled? If not, what mechanisms were in place to protect against the intrusion?You must write about a real-life network/system attack that you found through your internet research. Failure to discuss a targeted attack and cite/reference the news source will result in a 0 for this entire discussion.I am adding my classmate’s response for the above question. You will have to write response for each post in 150 words. No references needed.Discussion 1:Technological growth and the internet age has brought with it increased cases of cybercrimes where cybercriminals target personal information of governments, private firms, and even individual consumers. The value of data and its sensitivity to persons who own it have made cybercrimes and system intrusions very costly for the victims.In 2017, Equifax broke the news of the system intrusion it had suffered as a company and the resultant exposure of data for approximately 143 million citizens of the United States. The other citizens who had been affected were UK citizens and Canadians, whose specific numbers were not revealed. The breach was noted to have affected online web application only with core consumer database untouched. The information targeted the names, dates of birth, residential addresses, social security numbers, and driver’s license numbers of the consumers.The company responded to the breach by setting up a website from which customers would be able to tell if they were affected and the potential impact that it may have if their data was accessed (Nurse, 2017). Other measures included the company asking customers to register with their TrustedID premiere, which is a service used in credit monitoring from which they had to agree to a compulsory arbitration clause that would not apply to claims that may have originated from the security breach.In the wake of the attack, and in a bid to forestall such attacks in the future, Equifax employed a new chief information security officer and rolled out comprehensive efforts to change their approach to data security. Equifax also invested more than $200 million on infrastructures that would help in securing user data, and the chief information security officer since reiterated that the company had allocated him enough resources to ensure they build hack-proof security systems. The company in the process prioritized fundamentals, and essential projects first given the need for an overhaul of most systems like vulnerability management and patching processes.Discussion 2:A network intrusion system from being hijacked and used, the computer equipment must have the ability to be disconnected from the network. The type of computer equipment used is very important. The most common computers used in intrusion systems are laptops which run Windows operating system. In this case, the network intrusion system would monitor the laptops which are connected to the network but it would not be able to determine any identity of the computers that are being used in the network. When a computer is not present in the network and a computer is not in the network, the intrusion system does not interfere with the operation of the network. (Alhadad, R. 2019).A network intrusion system to be successful, there must be an entry in the intrusion database called network intrusion. This entry has to contain detailed information like IP address, MAC address, hostname, ports that are used, and all the traffic traffic that is flowing through that entry. This is an attack scenario when the attack has a purpose, and has an objective, and has a target. In an attack situation, this is a threat scenario. In an intrusion scenario the attack is carried out by a hacker using malware, or a Trojan, on a computer. The computer has become compromised. Once the computer has become compromised, the hacker enters the network and creates the network intrusion rules on the compromised computer. The computer can now be used as a target for an attack. DANE This is an intrusion system that intercepts the data traffic on the network. It looks the computers, then sends the information in the email. This is the system that can be used for monitoring the computers that are being monitored. If the intrusion system detects any login attempts from unauthorized computers, it is supposed to shut down the unauthorized users. This way, the intruder will not be able to break into your network and compromise your personal data. Network intrusion systems are very useful in preventing and containing network intrusions. These intrusion systems are installed on computers that are connected to the local network and to the internet via a firewall or router. (Poornachandran, P. 2018).

Assignment Content There is no such thing as a bug-free IT project. Because bugs are a fact of IT project life, IT project managers must articulate a process for identifying, tracking, and handling the bugs that will inevitably occur. In addition, because technical and business requirements change frequently, IT project managers must also plan to log and track requests for new features and functionality.Readthe following linked documents: “Visual Studio – Manage Bugs”: This article describes the process of tracking bugs in Visual Studio, a popular .NET development suite created by Microsoft®. “What Is a Bug and Issue Tracking Tool?”: This article describes the process of tracking bugs in Jira, a popular bug tracking and project management tool created by Atlassian. Createa 3-page Microsoft®Word document of a bug tracking process for the project you created in the individual assignments in Weeks 2 and 3 *(Attached). Be sure to differentiate between bugs and feature requests. For this assignment, you will only be tracking bugs.Your tracking process must include: Description of software you propose using for bug tracking (in-house developed or third-party) Description of issues that will be considered bugs (vs. feature requests) Description of who will use the system to track bugs Description of who will monitor the system, follow up with the requestor as necessary, and implement the bug fixes Description of bug-related information (such as a unique tracking number, description, assignee, etc.) necessary to identify, fix, and log bugs Submityour completed document.

Mobile devices (smartphones) are the number one Internet-connected device. Mobile devices are also a threat to organizations’ networks as these devices have storage mediums, Near Field Communication (NFC), and other technological advances that make them undeniable dangerous as an access point for malicious individuals. We carry them nearly everywhere we go. Android is an open-source that allows customization to the operating system and is considered static. While iOS is not open source and controlled by Apple, however, users can jailbreak them which lowers the security and expose the device to vulnerabilities.What process do you propose to mitigate the threats towards mobile devices?
