Agency-wide security awareness Program Proposal
Introduction
For the organization to comply with the current PCT DSS requirement version 12,6, a security awareness program must be in place. The CISCO of the organization has an immediate requirement of creating an agency-wide security awareness program. As a means of implementing security awareness program the organization has conducted a security gap analysis which is one of the component of security awareness program which showed the 10 security findings. As one of the means of conducting the program, I will submit awareness program proposal.
Objective
This SOW (Statement of Work) is being done on behalf of the senior information officer. He has requested for the creation of an agency-wide security awareness program by handing over the security gap analysis which was done prior to this process. Hence the major aim of this document is to set a security awareness program which shows ten major key security findings. The document will also include a risk assessment of the current security awareness practices, processes and practices.

ISE 510 Final Project Scenario Background Limetree Inc. is a research and development firm that engages in multiple research projects with the federal government and private corporations in the areas of healthcare, biotechnology, and other cutting-edge industries. It has been experiencing major growth in recent years, but there is also a concern that information security lapses are becoming rampant as the company grows. Limetree Inc. is working to establish a strong reputation in the industry, and it views a robust information security program as part of the means to achieving its goal. The company looks to monitor and remain compliant to any regulation impacting its operations.
Limetree Inc. recently experienced a security breach; it believes confidential company data has been stolen, including personal health information (PHI) used in a research study. Limetree Inc. believes the breach may have occurred because of some security vulnerabilities within its system and processes.
Limetree Inc.’s virtual environment is presented in the Agent Surefire: InfoSec educational video game. The rest of the environment is presented via an interview with the security manager, Jack Sterling.
Highlight of Interview with Jack Sterling
Interview with Jack Sterling revealed the following about Limetree Inc.’s system and processes:
Hardware/Software:
Desktop Apps: Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, MS Office, Adobe Flash, Adobe Acrobat
Applications/Databases:
Browser – Browser in use is Internet Explorer and browser security setting was set to low. Browsers allow remote installation of applets, and there is no standard browser for the environment.
Virus Software – MacAfee is deployed locally on each user's machine and users are mandated to update their virus policy every month.
SQL Database – Ordinary users can escalate privilege via SQL Agent. Disk space for SQL database log is small and is overwritten with new information when it is full. Limetree Inc. is not using any encryption for sensitive data at rest within the SQL server environment.
Network:
The network comprises the following: three web/applications servers, three email servers, five file and printer servers, two proxy servers, seven remotely manageable Cisco switches, 250 desktops, three firewall devices, one gateway (router) device to the internet, and three wireless access points.

Introduction
Writing as Anonymous (2003), the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of a major United States (US) corporation told a chilling tale of email based extortion attempts against employees who had received extortion threats via email sent to their corporate email addresses. The corporation, its managers, and the individual employees who were targeted faced a number of issues and dilemmas as they responded to security incident caused by the extortion attempts. In the following analysis, one issue–the enforcement of acceptable use policies–is discussed and critiqued.Analysis
The Attack
Drive by download attacks occur when a legitimate Web server has been infected with malware or malicious scripts which deliver malware, pornography, or other objectionable material along with the Web page content that the visitor was expecting to see (Microsoft, 2014; Niki, 2009). These types of attacks are difficult to detect and often result in the infection of large numbers of visitors before the infection is detected and removed from the Web site.
In this attack, computers used by the affected employees (victims) were compromised by a drive by download attack (Microsoft, 2014) which resulted in the download of pornographic materials while they were browsing websites which, in turn, had been compromised (Anonymous, 2003). The attackers also obtained each visitor’s email address from the Web browser. Extortion emails were sent to victims demanding credit card payment of hush fees. The extortionists told the victims exactly where the contraband files were located on the computer hard drive and assured the victims that it was impossible to remove those files.
Why the Problem Went Unreported
Anonymous (2003) discovered that he was dealing with “paranoid users who don't trust security people” (p. 1). There are many possible reasons why employees turn into paranoid users who are unwilling to self-report for security incidents, even those which are accidental. Two such reasons are enforcement of zero tolerance for violations and perceptions of unfairness or a lack of justice.
Zero tolerance. The previous CISO implemented a zero tolerance policy with respect to acceptable use policy (AUP) violations (Anonymous, 2003). Under this zero-tolerance policy, a number of employees were terminated (fired), without due process or hearings to establish guilt or innocence. When employees began receiving extortion emails and threats, they believed that their jobs could be placed at risk, regardless of their innocence or guilt with respect to downloading of pornography to company computers, if they reported the presence of pornographic files (pushed to the computer by the extortionists).
Perceptions of fairness and justice. When employees feel that IT policy enforcement is unfair, the situation is usually accompanied.

Cybersecurity
The topic we want to focus on and bring to the business’s attention today is cybersecurity. For those who are unfamiliar, Cybersecurity refers to a set of techniques used to protect the integrity of networks, programs, and data from attack and unauthorized access.
Cybercrime Portfolio
Cyber attacks
Security vulnerabilities
Disclosure of personal data
Network outages and data loss
Disruption of online services
All threaten long-term customer loyalty, security, firm revenue, and firm reliability
Activities that cybersecurity tries to prevent include but are not limited to cyber attacks, etc etc. which all threaten customer relations, security of our firm, our revenue, as well as firm reliability.
Increasing Prevalence
The reason why cybersecurity has come on our radar now is because of the steady increases of attacks in the last few years. The two biggest reasons for this are the boom of the internet of things as well as the underground market. When we implement software in all areas of our life, there will be more opportunities for cybercriminals to target.
Cybercrime Costs

Introduction
Writing as Anonymous (2003), the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of a major United States (US) corporation told a chilling tale of email based extortion attempts against employees who had received extortion threats via email sent to their corporate email addresses. The corporation, its managers, and the individual employees who were targeted faced a number of issues and dilemmas as they responded to security incident caused by the extortion attempts. In the following analysis, one issue–the enforcement of acceptable use policies–is discussed and critiqued.Analysis
The Attack
Drive by download attacks occur when a legitimate Web server has been infected with malware or malicious scripts which deliver malware, pornography, or other objectionable material along with the Web page content that the visitor was expecting to see (Microsoft, 2014; Niki, 2009). These types of attacks are difficult to detect and often result in the infection of large numbers of visitors before the infection is detected and removed from the Web site.
In this attack, computers used by the affected employees (victims) were compromised by a drive by download attack (Microsoft, 2014) which resulted in the download of pornographic materials while they were browsing websites which, in turn, had been compromised (Anonymous, 2003). The attackers also obtained each visitor’s email address from the Web browser. Extortion emails were sent to victims demanding credit card payment of hush fees. The extortionists told the victims exactly where the contraband files were located on the computer hard drive and assured the victims that it was impossible to remove those files.
Why the Problem Went Unreported
Anonymous (2003) discovered that he was dealing with “paranoid users who don't trust security people” (p. 1). There are many possible reasons why employees turn into paranoid users who are unwilling to self-report for security incidents, even those which are accidental. Two such reasons are enforcement of zero tolerance for violations and perceptions of unfairness or a lack of justice.
Zero tolerance. The previous CISO implemented a zero tolerance policy with respect to acceptable use policy (AUP) violations (Anonymous, 2003). Under this zero-tolerance policy, a number of employees were terminated (fired), without due process or hearings to establish guilt or innocence. When employees began receiving extortion emails and threats, they believed that their jobs could be placed at risk, regardless of their innocence or guilt with respect to downloading of pornography to company computers, if they reported the presence of pornographic files (pushed to the computer by the extortionists).
Perceptions of fairness and justice. When employees feel that IT policy enforcement is unfair, the situation is usually accompanied.

Cybersecurity
The topic we want to focus on and bring to the business’s attention today is cybersecurity. For those who are unfamiliar, Cybersecurity refers to a set of techniques used to protect the integrity of networks, programs, and data from attack and unauthorized access.
Cybercrime Portfolio
Cyber attacks
Security vulnerabilities
Disclosure of personal data
Network outages and data loss
Disruption of online services
All threaten long-term customer loyalty, security, firm revenue, and firm reliability
Activities that cybersecurity tries to prevent include but are not limited to cyber attacks, etc etc. which all threaten customer relations, security of our firm, our revenue, as well as firm reliability.
Increasing Prevalence
The reason why cybersecurity has come on our radar now is because of the steady increases of attacks in the last few years. The two biggest reasons for this are the boom of the internet of things as well as the underground market. When we implement software in all areas of our life, there will be more opportunities for cybercriminals to target.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
