Table 2 identifies the controls applicable to Sentara IT System. The security controls are illustrated using various colour codes and identified by the following convention:
Dark Blue = Company-wide security controls
Light Diagonally Down shaded = These controls are not required for testing at a moderate baseline
Light Yellow = System-specific controls

If the user can access the file server using an IP address but not a name, then the most likely reason for failure to connect is a name resolution problem. Name resolution can fail for NetBIOS or DNS host names. If the client operating system is NetBIOS dependent, the VPN clients should be assigned a WINS server address by the VPN server. If the client operating system uses DNS preferentially, VPN clients should be assigned an internal DNS server that can resolve internal network host names.
According to Whitman and Mattord (2010), The ISO 27000 series is one of the most widely referenced security models. Referencing ISO/IEC 27002 (17799:2005), the major process steps include: risk assessment and treatment, security policy, organization of information security, asset management, human resources security, physical and environmental security, communications and operations management, access control, information systems acquisition, development, and maintenance, information security incident management, business continuity management, and compliance
in the form of rules. These are a first line of defense to inform users
The analysis of the problem should take a day. At the analysis stage we determine the solution. The solution has been identified as the installation of the access control system. At this stage the system parts are identified; they include input, output, communication devices, power supplies, detection devices, intelligent panels, card readers, lock hardware, the actions and the response of the system in case of violation of the input requirements or failure of the system.
There are three primary goals for an information security metrics program: compliance with legal requirements; reduce risk by adding new or improving existing capabilities; improve efficiency or reduce cost. In order to achieve any of these goals it is extremely important to gather the appropriate data and formulate useful metrics. The need for useful security metrics cannot be overstated, but there can be confusion about what a metric is, and difficulty determining what a useful metric is. As a business USAA has a duty to protect and improve shareholder investments, and of course must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. There are a variety of laws and regulations that dictate security requirements for financial institutions.
Security requirements also apply to all VA or contractor-operated services and information resources located and operated at contract facilities, at other government agencies that support VA mission
Faults are a precise interaction of hardware and software that can be fixed given enough time.
Security Officers must obtain a consensus for which mitigating controls are key, which can be a trying negotiation between the CISO, Chief Technology Officer, Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), Infrastructure Engineering, Audit and Assurance teams, and the Investment and Audit committees. How do you harness your entire organization to focus on a common agreed-upon list of key security controls?
The ISO/IEC 27000-series consist of information security standards published jointly by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electro technical Commission (IEC). In accordance with ISO/IEC 2700, we begin to define the guidelines to support the interpretation and implementation of information
Customer Needs- Security systems are required by people to0 keep their homes safe, it gives them a sense of safety for their personal belongings, when they are away from their home.
As the use of computers, databases, and technology in general, security has grown to be a powerful tool that has to be used. The threat of outside sources intruding and exploiting crucial information is a threat that is present on a daily basis. As a part of creating and implementing a security policy, a user must consider access control. Access Control is a security tool that is used to control who can use or gain access to the protected technology. Access control security includes two levels; logical and physical. Though database intrusions can happen at any moment, access control provides another security barrier that is needed.
In December of 2015, Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik killed 14 people at a holiday party in San Bernardino, California. Authorities believe the two attackers were influenced by violent jihadist ideology. Both Farook and Malik were killed later that day in a gunfight with the authorities. Upon searching their house, law enforcement confiscated Farook’s corporate owned iPhone (Brown, 2016, p. 8). However, when the FBI tried to unlock this iPhone, they discovered that the security system in place on it would erase everything on the phone if more than ten unsuccessful attempts to open it occur. As a result, the Department of Justice asked Apple to help them gain access to the phone’s data (Sydell & Wertheimer, 2016).
A threat agent is the facilitator of an attack however; a threat is a constant danger to an asset.
