IT Audit For Non-IT Auditors
Discusses IIA expectations for Internal Auditors regarding knowledge of key technology risks and technology audit tools.
Securing your IT infrastructure with SOC-NOC collaboration TWP
The document discusses integrating log management with IT operations to improve security and incident management. Log management provides universal collection, analysis and long-term retention of log data from all sources. Integrating this with IT operations tools allows security incidents to be detected and addressed through the IT operations workflow. This provides better visibility into the root causes of issues and their business impacts. A case study of HP-IT is presented where they integrated log management with their IT operations solution to manage security incidents and the complex IT infrastructure supporting 350,000 employees.
The Increasing Problems Of Controlling Access
This was a presentation I gave at the Information Week RMAA Seminar 2008. It was on the increasing problems of trying to control access within organisations, focusing on sensitive and classified information.
Causes And Consequences Of Data Leakage
Here are the key points from the case study:
- Pepperdine University has embraced BYOD for many years, allowing students, faculty, and guests to use personal devices on the campus network.
- The university implemented Bradford Networks' Network Sentry solution to provide secure network access for BYOD users while also detecting and responding to security threats.
- Network Sentry integrates with Sourcefire IDS to enable rapid identification and remediation of threats. When threats are detected, Network Sentry can isolate infected devices from the network.
- This approach allows the university to safely support BYOD without restricting access for the majority of devices that are not infected. The focus is on responding to threats rather than restricting devices based
Why Regular Audits are Necessary in IT Asset Management.pdf
Regular IT asset audits ensure your company has accurate records, maximizes security, and avoids costly mistakes. Know how frequent audits benefit your IT infrastructure.
Og Disparate It Mgmt Tool Impact Report
The document discusses the challenges mid-tier organizations face in achieving effective IT service management due to a lack of integrated tools. It finds that over 80% of surveyed IT professionals are not confident in their tools' ability to monitor networks and applications. Current tools focus more on individual components rather than overall services. The document argues this inhibits visibility, control, and optimization needed to improve service delivery and reduce costs. It concludes mid-tier companies require more holistic solutions to better manage infrastructure changes, ensure compliance, and monitor service levels across physical and virtual environments.
comparision between IT and Information system
Information technology (IT) focuses on selecting, integrating, and deploying computing technology, while information systems (IS) focus on applying computing technology to business processes. IT deals with the technical side, providing hardware and software, while IS deals with the business side, using information technology to capture, store, and process information for business processes and decision making. Some key advantages of IT and IS include increased productivity, efficiency, communication, and profitability, while disadvantages include costs, security issues, unemployment, and information overload.
Information security risk
The risk of cyber threat is high for organizations that manage sensitive data. Therefore, a need to have a robust security and compliance program. By doing so, protects the information system resources from a wide range of threats and brings the company into compliance with regulatory regulatory requirements.
As meeting industry standard does not guarantee protection from data breaches, the security & compliance program should start by identifying and analyzing organizational security needs rather than solely meeting compliance requirements. Following risk management approach is, therefore, a best practice instead of relying on checklists. By following this method, organizations avoid unnecessary compliance effort and cost on insignificant threats and will have sustainable security and compliance program.
Accordingly, the program should identify, analyze and prioritize risks. Consequently, selecting a comprehensive set of appropriate security controls by referencing from established frameworks such as National Institution of Standards and Technologies (NIST) risk assessment framework. NIST is a prescriptive guideline for implementing security controls. However, an organization should first develop a risk assessment methodology/framework that is tailored to its environment.
When following a risk-based approach the security and compliance program has to align with the business objectives of the organization. Risk needs to be identified and prioritized not only from an information system perspective but also from a business perspective. By doing so, the program will ensure information security risk identified, analyzed and prioritized from input across the organization. This will provide clear justification and assurance on the information security investments. It will also increase a sense of ownership for information security efforts among all stakeholder.

ISE 510 Final Project Scenario Background Limetree Inc. is a resea.docx
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.

Share point encryption
Popular collaboration platforms like SharePoint are increasingly used to store private information, raising data security concerns. While encryption at the disk or database levels provide some protection, they do not prevent access by privileged users like administrators. Transparent encryption at the application level protects against both external and insider threats by encrypting data and restricting access based on need-to-know. This provides the most comprehensive security for sensitive information stored in SharePoint.

8 BIGGEST MISTAKES IT PRACTITIONERS MAKE AND HOW TO AVOID THEM
Imagine you’re the mythological character Sisyphus, forced to roll a boulder up a hill. When it gets near the top, it always rolls back down, so you have to keep repeating the same futile exercise over and over. If you’re an IT professional in charge of a complex, hybrid environment, this scenario probably sounds familiar. Instead of helping move your organization forward, you spend most of your time constantly trying to pinpoint and fix one problem after another (eternally rolling boulders uphill).
Adding to the stress, all the pressure is on you to maintain
system availability and performance to keep business leaders and customers happy.

Avoiding Audit Fatigue: Achieving Compliance In A Multi-compliance World In Nine Steps
Gartner Security/Risk Management Conference
July 2010
It's common for information security managers to be held responsible for failed audits where they had little control or influence in the rest of the organization. This presentation provides nine steps that information security managers can use to break the compliance blame cycle and build an information security program that more effectively mitigates security risk. By successfully executing these steps, the information security manager will no longer continually react to and
manage the audit preparation crisis du jour. Instead, the information security manager will institute and rely upon regular, defined activities to complete the heavy lifting of preparing for a successful audit long before the audit occurs.
This session also describes how IT security managers can achieve alignment among all stakeholders so that information security and compliance activities become integrated into daily business operations.
Completing the nine steps in this presentation requires business stakeholders, IT management, and information security management to all mutually support the same goal. This session describes how to gain this alignment and defines the various compliance roles so that information

Operating System Security
Operating system security can be defined as the various sets of protection mechanisms or techniques employed by system administrators to prevent information theft and unauthorized resource access. All systems and especially in distributed systems require some measure of security that only allows authorized data manipulation and availability to employees of a company. Jinx will also need to secure its system to prevent both external and internal threats.
Services that are mostly focus on in system security include;
· Authentication: This is the validation of system servers or the identity of users or information/data senders within an organization.
· Availability: Authorized users of a system should be able to access information freely in addition to withholding it from unauthorized access. This also includes shared resources in the system.
· Authorization: This can also be referred to as Access Control. Organizations can limit the number of people access the network resources by simply verifying users when logging into the system. Using passwords and usernames is one way of controlling unauthorized access to computers and the system. However, authentication does not always guarantee a user full access to network resources or da ...

ISE 510 Final Project Scenario Background Limetree Inc. is a resea.docx
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.

audit_it_250759.pdf
The document provides an overview of IT audit concepts including:
- Why IT systems need to be audited due to risks of errors, inaccuracies, and deficiencies affecting financial reporting
- The types of IT controls including general controls over the IT infrastructure and environment, and application controls specific to automated applications
- Examples of minimum areas to assess for IT general controls including entity-level controls, access security, change management, backup/recovery and third parties

Share point encryption
Popular collaboration platforms like SharePoint are increasingly used to store private information, raising data security concerns. While encryption at the disk or database levels provide some protection, they do not prevent access by privileged users like administrators. Transparent encryption at the application level protects against both external and insider threats by encrypting data and restricting access based on need-to-know. This provides the most comprehensive security for sensitive information stored in SharePoint.

8 BIGGEST MISTAKES IT PRACTITIONERS MAKE AND HOW TO AVOID THEM
Imagine you’re the mythological character Sisyphus, forced to roll a boulder up a hill. When it gets near the top, it always rolls back down, so you have to keep repeating the same futile exercise over and over. If you’re an IT professional in charge of a complex, hybrid environment, this scenario probably sounds familiar. Instead of helping move your organization forward, you spend most of your time constantly trying to pinpoint and fix one problem after another (eternally rolling boulders uphill).
Adding to the stress, all the pressure is on you to maintain
system availability and performance to keep business leaders and customers happy.

Avoiding Audit Fatigue: Achieving Compliance In A Multi-compliance World In Nine Steps
Gartner Security/Risk Management Conference
July 2010
It's common for information security managers to be held responsible for failed audits where they had little control or influence in the rest of the organization. This presentation provides nine steps that information security managers can use to break the compliance blame cycle and build an information security program that more effectively mitigates security risk. By successfully executing these steps, the information security manager will no longer continually react to and
manage the audit preparation crisis du jour. Instead, the information security manager will institute and rely upon regular, defined activities to complete the heavy lifting of preparing for a successful audit long before the audit occurs.
This session also describes how IT security managers can achieve alignment among all stakeholders so that information security and compliance activities become integrated into daily business operations.
Completing the nine steps in this presentation requires business stakeholders, IT management, and information security management to all mutually support the same goal. This session describes how to gain this alignment and defines the various compliance roles so that information
security and compliance activities become integrated into daily

Operating System Security
Operating system security can be defined as the various sets of protection mechanisms or techniques employed by system administrators to prevent information theft and unauthorized resource access. All systems and especially in distributed systems require some measure of security that only allows authorized data manipulation and availability to employees of a company. Jinx will also need to secure its system to prevent both external and internal threats.
Services that are mostly focus on in system security include;
· Authentication: This is the validation of system servers or the identity of users or information/data senders within an organization.
· Availability: Authorized users of a system should be able to access information freely in addition to withholding it from unauthorized access. This also includes shared resources in the system.
· Authorization: This can also be referred to as Access Control. Organizations can limit the number of people access the network resources by simply verifying users when logging into the system. Using passwords and usernames is one way of controlling unauthorized access to computers and the system. However, authentication does not always guarantee a user full access to network resources or da ...
