Study Notes
Cyber Security Plan
- When creating a cyber security plan, a company should first evaluate its current security measures
- Top management support is critical to cyber security success throughout the planning, implementation, and execution stages.
- Top management should demonstrate their support by ensuring adequate budgeting and following security procedures themselves.
- Policies are statements outlining actions to be taken in specific situations.
User Acceptance and Security Policies
- Policies should be user-friendly to prevent users from bypassing them, which can be a significant security risk.
- Standards are mandatory security rules, while guidelines are discretionary but should be carefully considered by decision-makers.
Authentication
- Authentication verifies a user's identity when accessing resources.
- Authentication factors include: Something you have, Something you know, Something you are.
Security Passwords
- Short and simple passwords are easily guessed by hackers.
- Biometric technology, such as fingerprint scanners, enhances customer trust by combating fraud.
- Biometric technology can experience "false acceptance" where a person is incorrectly matched to a template.
- Attackers can deliberately try to deceive biometric systems.
- Fingerprint recognition is not easily deceived; it is used frequently, and scanners have become more affordable.
