Write a 2½- to 3 ½-page security vulnerability report in Microsoft Word based on the organization CAPITAL ONE. An internal review of your organization was previously conducted and found the following vulnerabilities:
- A formal Password Policy has not been developed that meets your organization’s regulatory requirements.
-The organization only uses single factor authentication using weak passwords.
- Vulnerability Severity: High
- Impact: Threats could easily guess weak passwords allowing unauthorized access.
- Software configuration management does not exist on your organization’s production servers.
- There are different configurations on each server and no operating system patching schedule.
- Vulnerability Severity: Moderate
- Impact: With ad hoc configuration management, the organization could inadvertently or unintentionally make changes to the servers that could cause a self-imposed denial of service.
- An Incident Response Plan has not been developed.
- There is not a formal process for responding to a security incident.
- Vulnerability Severity: High
- Impact: In the event of a security incident, an ad hoc process could allow the security incident to get worse and spread throughout the network; the actual attack may not be recognized or handled in a timely manner giving the attacker more time to expand the attack.
- Consider people, processes, and technology that can be exploited by the source of a threat.
- Include recommended countermeasures to mitigate the impacts and risks of the vulnerabilities.
Format your citations according to APA guidelines.
