Responding to Threats

/in /by

A few weeks ago, a nearby hospital, which is very similar in operations and scale to Auburn Regional, was the target of a ransomware attack. You have kept a close eye on this event. You decide to complete a review of current material available regarding ransomware attacks and especially ransomware and hospital enterprise systems.
Develop a 1- to 2-page chart. Your chart should have four rows for Authorization, Authentication, Roles, and Mitigation, as well as three columns for Small, Medium, and Large businesses. The chart should compare four attributes that are critical in enterprise systems today. Populate and extrapolate what steps can be taken to mitigate threats for small, medium, and large hospital enterprise systems.
Based on your chart, provide a final recommendation on how the hospital can respond to the threat. Summarize your chart findings, provide your recommendation, and answer the following questions in a brief, 2- to 3-page executive summary to the Auburn Regional management team:
How could changes to authorization, authentication, and roles help mitigate and deal with these systems threats?
How do you verify people and security levels?
How will your recommendations alleviate the threat?

Your first task/assignment is to select a project topic that suits your degree. Try to select a project that will represent all the skills you’ve learned in your program. You’ll want to combine everything learned in your courses to come up with a project that will demonstrate your mastery of the program. You have several options you can pursue. However, your topic should be related to the industry you are getting your degree in. There are several brainstorming techniques in the presentation and recorded session to help you chose and narrow a topic. Below are some general ideas and areas to help with your topic selection. This is, by no means, an exclusive or extensive list. There aren’t really any limits on your topic as long it is Information Technology based and has some relationship to your program and the industry.
