Two-factor authentication

Capstone Project Summary This project will be to develop an overall written as well as a lab tested environment concept plan for a live implementation for a government contract. There is a need to lessen the number of running hardware services, implement high level security access for both physical access as well as any needed remote connections, to lessen the overall possible attack surfaces for the environment from potential attackers, make this a unilateral implementation anywhere, as well…

Newsletter Legal Issues: Data Protection Act 1998 This law is designed so that your personal information is protected. It protects your data in which is stored on the pc and hard copies. This act gives the people the right to know what information about them is being stored. It protects information such as your name, address, employment history, credit records etc. this law was designed to ensure people know about how data based upon people can be used. This act must make sure that personal…

Building Security is the responsibility of all personnel. Key Custodian will issues each staff a member key that is unique to their specific work area, ensuring that staff is able to secure their classrooms, office, storage and other pertinent work space used by the individual at the end of the duty day. The school is not responsible for loss of personal items. The maximum liability paid by the US Government to an individual for personal property stolen from the work area is $50. It is not only…

controlled and changed in accordance with the Password Policy. Authorized Networked Devices Policy: The security features necessary to minimize risks to communication equipment must be configured in the equipment before it is placed into service. There are two possible roles for the staff that manages the communication equipment: monitoring and administrator. The monitoring role has…

Western Governors University A. Security Faults Describe three of the security faults in this scenario that caused a security breach. 1. Some accounts existed before the electronic health record(EHR) was deployed. Important steps were missed during the import of old accounts. I suggest using a clean base line for the brand new EHR system. Users should not be able to have administrator rights without a manager innerving. The security risk that is being violated is called least privilege. This…

Attackers exploiting default configurations to gain access to the network and to information stored on devices in the network are major threat to home gateway devices. In order to mitigate this threat there are many common default configurations a user should change. When setting up a home network, a user should make sure to change the default passwords. They should set up a strong account password and wifi password using best practices.The user should use a strong security protocol such as…

Workstation Security Policy A workstation policy provides standards for access to information inside the facility in a controlled manner, respecting guidelines set by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA). The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines to properly ensure workstation security within healthcare companies. Workstation security policy ensures the security of information on the workstation and information accessed by the workstation. Additionally, this…

repository or central database and trusted third party Central authority(CA) are used to revoke, issue and store the keys. There is always a risk that these centralized infrastructure can be violated. Hence, Blochcain can be use to to reduce the risks of storing PKI on centralized infrastructure. Here the Data(Keys) will be distributed across the blochchain network[3] In the 2nd section we will go through the introduction of blockchain, In the 3rd Section, we will see how blockchain protects…

The following is a list and brief detailing of the organizations current risks. These threats are generalized there is a specific list of threats to the embassy listed later. Risks and Challenges Acts of Nature Include Lightening storms, hail storms, tornado’s earthquakes floods or any other natural disaster you could think of that could possibly disrupt daily operations and make data unavailable for any reasons. Dependency Failures Include systems or personal that become inoperable that are…

TEST AND SECURITY EVALUATION PLATFORM Background Work: The need for safe and secure identity authentication is increasing day by day as the number of identity theft occurrences is growing. The strongest security is implemented within the hardware itself. There are two key concepts in designing for testability: Controllability and Observability. Controllability refers to the ability to apply test patterns to the inputs of a sub circuit via the primary inputs of the circuit. Observability refers…
