Determine what the risk to an organisation is
Computer Network Security
Security professionals need to ensure that they keep up to date with the latest
threats and security issues. This allows them to update their risk profiles, such
as identifying if their systems are vulnerable. In order to determine what the risk
to an organisation is, you need to know what the problems could be.
In this assignment, your task is to identify a recently announced security
vulnerability and write a profile of the threat. The profile should contain the
name of the threat, the systems it attacks, how it performs its attack and the
mitigation strategies. The risk to an organisation using vulnerable systems should
also be determined.
