Businesses involved in mergers and acquisitions must exercise due di.docxdewhirstichabod
Businesses involved in mergers and acquisitions must exercise due diligence in ensuring that the technology environment of the future organization is robust and adequately protects their information assets and intellectual property.. Such an effort requires time and open sharing to understand the physical locations, computing environment, and any gaps to address. Lack of information sharing can lead to a problematic systems integration and hamper the building of a cohesive enterprise security posture for the merged organization.
Often the urgency of companies undergoing a merger and acquisition (M&A) impedes comprehensive due diligence, especially in cybersecurity. This creates greater challenges for the cybersecurity engineering architect, who typically leads the cybersecurity assessment effort and creates the roadmap for the new enterprise security solution for the future organization. However, the business interest and urgency in completing the merger can also represent an opportunity for CISOs to leverage additional resources and executive attention on strategic security matters.
In this project, you will create a report on system security issues during an M&A. The details of your report, which will also include an executive briefing and summary, can be found in the final step of the project.
There are nine steps to the project. The project as a whole should take two weeks to complete. Begin with the workplace scenario and then continue to Step 1.

Cybersecurity for a Successful Acquisition, Slides to Support Executive Briefing
Step 1: Conduct a Policy Gap Analysis
As you begin Step 1 of your system security report on cybersecurity for mergers and acquisitions, keep in mind that the networks of companies going through an M&A can be subject to cyberattack. As you work through this step and the others, keep these questions in mind:
Are companies going through an M&A prone to more attacks or more focused attacks?
If so, what is the appropriate course of action?
Should the M&A activities be kept confidential?
Now, look at the existing security policies in regard to the acquisition of the media streaming company. You have to explain to the executives that before any systems are integrated, their security policies will need to be reviewed.
Conduct a policy gap analysis to ensure the target company's security policies follow relevant industry standards as well as local, state, and national laws and regulations. In other words, you need to make sure the new company will not inherit any statutory or regulatory noncompliance from either of the two original companies. This step would also identify what, if any, laws and regulations the target company is subject to. If those are different from the laws and regulations the acquiring company is subject to, then this document should answer the following questions:
How would you identify the differences?
How would you learn about the relevant laws and regulations?
How would .
You need to analyze the features of three videoconferencing systems walthamcoretta
You need to analyze the features of three videoconferencing systems and provide an overview of each system. After you complete the overview of the systems, you'll recommend a system which best meets the business functionality and security requirements. You will also prepare a set of high level executive briefing slides to give the CEO and CIO an overview of your study. Your study and recommendation will be critical to the company's success.
Cybersecurity professionals are frequently required to assess the security, risk applications, and systems for business communications before they can be added to an organization's network. CISOs need to assess risks posed to the organization and develop new security measures or adjust current measures to address these risks appropriately. These evaluations involve comparing competing applications or systems against the organization's baseline to determine the best balance between business needs and the security and risk appetite of the organization.
Videoconferencing and collaboration systems vary in cost, configuration, functionality, use, and collaboration capability. These systems are trusted to facilitate sensitive and proprietary discussions through their use of encrypted communication channels. Yet these systems have vulnerabilities and are prone to threats and attacks ranging from phishing, credential compromise, and even malware insertion. Therefore, analysis of possible threats, attacks, and vulnerabilities inherent in these systems is critical in developing defense and protection strategies for voice and video data at all endpoints and during transit.
In this project, you will create a proposal for a secure videoconferencing system, which will include an executive summary, briefing/slide presentation, and lab report. The details can be found in the final step of the project.
There are six steps to the project, and the project as a whole should take about two weeks to complete. Begin with the workplace scenario and then continue to Step 1.

Step 1: Develop Functional Requirements for Videoconferencing
The first step in your proposal for a secure videoconferencing system is to develop a set of functional requirements for videoconferencing that you believe the media company will need based on its geographic dispersion and business needs.
In developing those requirements, research three videoconferencing solutions such as Skype, GotoMeeting, Polycom, and Cisco Webex and explain their capabilities, advantages, and disadvantages. Identify costs as well as implementation and support requirements.
The functional requirements and the three possible solutions will be a section of your Proposal for Secure Videoconferencing. In the next step, you will review the challenges of implementing those solutions.

Managing risks related to vendors presents its own challenges particularly if they are high technology companies such as Cloud Service Providers (CSP).
This document summarizes a research paper on designing a secure cloud-assisted mobile health monitoring system. The system aims to address privacy and security issues while lowering healthcare costs. It incorporates techniques like multi-dimensional range queries, outsourcing decryption to the cloud, and proxy re-encryption to shift computational tasks to the cloud without compromising privacy. The system architecture allows a mobile health service provider to store encrypted data and programs in the cloud and deliver them securely. It enables clients to query the cloud for monitoring programs using privacy-preserving tokens. The cloud assists with computationally intensive tasks without learning private query inputs or outputs, to protect all parties' privacy and data.
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a secure cloud-based mobile health monitoring system called CAM. The system aims to protect patient privacy and the intellectual property of healthcare service providers. It incorporates techniques like anonymous identity-based encryption and outsourced decryption to encrypt health data and shift decryption tasks to the cloud. The system also randomizes diagnostic programs and decision thresholds stored in the cloud to protect provider content. The goal is to allow resource-constrained providers to participate in mobile healthcare via cloud support while preserving security and privacy.

New Security Requirements for the CSP program
1 Introduction
Cybersecurity is the central challenge of our digital age. Microsoft is committed to providing a
trusted set of cloud services and platforms. We invest heavily in our technology, people, and
processes to help ensure that customers’ as well as partners’ data is private and protected from
unauthorized access, both internally and externally.
1.1 Why is Microsoft implementing these new requirements?
Microsoft is committed to providing a trusted set of cloud services and platforms. We have
noticed an increasing number of security breaches and fraud incidents in the industry. As our
Cloud Solution Provider program ecosystem grows, we are extending our security best practices
to our partner ecosystem, and introducing new mandatory security requirements that help
protect our partners in the CSP program ecosystem as well as customers from unexpected
security risks and financial damages caused by unauthorized access.
The new mandatory security requirements include:
1. Enabling a new secure application model to integrate with Partner Center APIs.
Effective date starts December 11, 2018.
2. Adopting and enabling Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to access Partner Center
API and Partner Center Dashboard. Enforcement date begins February 4, 2019.
Enabling a new security model will allow partners transacting in the CSP program to activate a
more secure access to Partner Center APIs with enhanced identity protection features. This
secure application model helps partners to further secure credentials and reduce the potential
financial and branding damages caused by unauthorized access. These requirements empowers
all parties, including partners in the CSP program as well as control panel vendors (CPV), to
protect their infrastructure as well as customer data from unauthorized access and unintended
security risks such as identify theft or other fraud incidents.
1.2 Our company already applied industry best practices to keep our
system secure. Why should I implement these requirements?
CSP partners must meet these requirements before the effective dates. Microsoft is committed
to providing a trusted set of cloud services and platforms. As our Cloud Solution Provider (CSP)
program grows, we are extending our security best practices and features available on Microsoft
Partner Center to our partner ecosystem.

1.3 What will happen if I do not take any actions?
Failure in implementing these changes may impact partner’s ability to transact through the
Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program via Partner Center API and Partner Center Dashboard.
1.4 How do I join the Partner Center security guidance Yammer?
A Partner Center security guidance Yammer group is available for discussion on the technical
requirements of these new security requirements. To join, users must follow the steps below:
1. Join the open network.
2. Join either the CSP Yammer Partner Community (for direct bill partners) or the CSP
Indirect Partner Group (for indirect partners).
3. Request to join the Partner Center security guidance Yammer group.
2 Secure Application Model FAQs
2.1 What is the new secure application model?
Microsoft is introducing a secure, scalable framework for authenticating Cloud Solution Provider
(CSP) partners and control panel vendors (CPV) through the Microsoft Azure multi-factor
authentication (MFA) architecture. CSP partners and CPVs can rely on the new secure application
model to elevate security for Partner Center API integration.
Further detail is available within the secure application model guide.
2.2 What actions do I need to take to implement a secure applications
model?
Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partners and control panel vendors (CPV) need to apply the new
secure application model before effective date December 11, 2018. The following actions are
required:
Partner scenarios Actions required
Partners using Partner Center
APIs directly
(Indirect providers or direct
bill partners)

A Control Panel vendor is an independent software vendor that develops apps for use by CSP
Partners to integrate with Partner Center APIs. A Control Panel vendor is not a CSP Partner with
direct access to Partner Center dashboard or APIs. A detailed description is available within the
Partner Center: secure application model guide.
2.5 How do I know if my control panel vendor (CPV) is working on
implementing the solution or not?
For partners using a control panel vendor (CPV) solution to transact in the Cloud Solution
Provider (CSP) program, it is your responsibility to consult with your CPV to meet this
requirement.

3 Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) FAQs
3.1 What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security mechanism in which individuals are
authenticated through more than one required security and validation procedure. It works by
requiring two or more of the following authentication methods:
• Something you know (typically a password)
• Something you have (a trusted device that is not easily duplicated, like a phone)
• Something you are (biometrics)
3.2 What actions do I need to take to implement a multi-factor
authentication (MFA) solution?
Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partners and control panel vendors (CPV) need to adopt a Multi-
Factor Authentication (MFA) solution before effective date February 4, 2019. The MFA solution
must be compatible with Azure Active Directory (AAD). The following actions are required:
Partner scenarios Actions required
Partners using Partner Center
APIs or Dashboard
(Indirect providers, direct bill
partners or resellers)
• Implement a MFA solution to access Partner Center
APIs or Dashboard
Control panel vendors (CPV)
integrating with Partner
Center APIs
• Implement a MFA solution to access Partner Center
APIs or Sandbox Dashboard
Partners using control panel
vendor solutions
• Implement a MFA solution to access Partner Center
APIs or Dashboard
3.3 When do I need to implement a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
solution?
Partners must complete this action by the effective date, February 4, 2019.

3.4 I use multiple tenants to transact, do I need to implement a Multi-
Factor Authentication (MFA) solution on them all?
Yes. A Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solution must be implemented on all active Cloud
Solution Provider (CSP) tenants a partner uses.
3.5 If my company transacts through the CSP program in multiple
countries, how will implementing a Multi-Factor Authentication
(MFA) solution work?
A Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solution must be implemented on all active Cloud Solution
Provider (CSP) tenants a partner uses.

Yes. Direct Bill Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partners need to implement a Multi-Factor
Authentication (MFA) solution before the effective date, February 4, 2019.
3.7 I am an Indirect Reseller and only transact though a distributor. Do I
still have to do this?
For Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partners transacting through a distributor, the distributor is
responsible for implementing a Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solution. All partners who
access Partner Center Dashboard themselves must implement a MFA solution.
3.8 Should I use or purchase Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD)
premium?
Microsoft allows you to choose among the various Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solutions
available on the market to best fit your business needs. Partners can choose any MFA solutions
that are compatible with Azure Active Directory (AAD). Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD)
premium is one of several options available which provide advanced Multi-Factor Authentication
(MFA) capabilities.
3.9 Which vendors provide Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solutions
compatible with Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD).
