Cybersecurity

Assessment - Mitigation Plan for Threat Report

Learning Outcome 1: Explore and articulate cyber trends, threats and staying safe in cyberspace, plus protecting personal and company data.
Learning Outcome 2: Analyse issues associated with organisational data networks and security to recommend practical solutions towards their resolution.
Learning Outcome 3: Evaluate and communicate relevant technical and ethical considerations related to the design, deployment and/or the uses of secure technologies within various organisational contexts.

Case: ANU data breach: Hackers got inside Australia`s  top university-Initial Case Scenario

Instruction: You need to align threats or vulnerabilities, as much as possible, with controls.
Perform a risk analysis and determine controls to be employed.
Combine the controls into a project of mitigation.
Assign the individuals within the organization who will assume diverse responsibilities in the implementation of cybersecurity controls.
Give advice on the need for ongoing cybersecurity, after your main mitigation steps.

To successfully complete this assessment:
You must use the risk matrix approach covered in classes (Risk = likelihood x consequence)
You should show evidence of gathering data on "likelihood" and "consequence" for each of the threat you have identified. You should briefly explain how this was done.
At least ONE (1) of the risks must be so trivial and/or expensive to control that you decide not to use it (In other words, in this case, you are accepting the risk). At least ONE (1) of the risks, but obviously not all.
Provide cost estimates for the controls including policy or training controls. You can make up these values but try to justify at least ONE (1) of the costs (if possible, use links to justify costs).
You must present a topic assigned to you in class by your learning facilitator as an in-class presentation. The duration of the presentation needs to be between 3 to 5 minutes. Please ensure that you are objective in your presentation.
