Step 1: Explore the Basics of Authentication
In order to build a presentation with the most current information available, you will gather information by reaching out to a group of your peers working in various industries. In the next three steps, you will prepare background information for this discussion. You’ll need to have a basic understanding of authentication. Define authentication and identify the core principles and key tenets of authentication as listed below. (Review Computer Networks, Network Devices & Cables and Network Protocols if you do not already have a working understanding of these topics.)
Step 2: Explore the Basics of Authorization
Another topic you’ll need to be prepared to discuss is authorization. Define authorization and differentiate it from authentication (how are they similar, how are they different?). You will use the notes compiled in this step in your upcoming peer discussion. Complete each of the items listed below.
Step 3: Explore the Basics of Access Control
One last topic to prepare for the upcoming discussion is access control: Define access control, then differentiate between access control, authentication, and authorization. You will use the notes compiled in this step in your upcoming peer discussion. You should describe the different access control models and how they are used, including, but not limited to, the list below. (Review Systems Software, Application Software, Software Interaction and Programming if you do not already have a working understanding of these topics.)
Step 4: Social Psychology Report
In Step 3, you explored the basics of access control and common models of implementing it. Your next task in preparing for your discussion with your peers is to consider the impact that human factors, such as ethics, legal issues, and psychology have on cybersecurity. To synthesize your research on these factors, you will write a report on the psychological aspects of cybersecurity. This report will be used to formulate your recommendations in Step 10 and be included as an appendix to your final presentation in Step 12.
In your report, do the following:
Step 5: Privacy Awareness Report
Following your report on the impact of social psychology on cybersecurity, you will compose a report on privacy (Privacy – definition) awareness and the implications on cybersecurity policy to further prepare for the discussion with your peers. This report will be used to formulate your recommendations in Step 10 and be included as an appendix to your final presentation in Step 12.
In your report, complete the following:
Step 6: Anonymity Report
To go along with your reports on the impact of social psychology on cybersecurity in Step 4 and the impact of privacy awareness on cybersecurity policy in Step 5, you will now report on the implication anonymity (Anonymity – definition) has on cybersecurity by giving a brief one-paragraph summary on the following items. Each summary should include a definition, and explanation of how the term relates to your organization, and an explanation of how you will integrate it into your policy recommendations. This report will be used to formulate your recommendations in Step 10 and be included as an appendix to your final presentation in Step 12. (Review Introduction to the Internet, The World Wide Web, A Closer Look at the Web, Web Markup Language and Web and Internet Services if you do not already have a working understanding of these topics.)
In Step 6, you explored and reported on the human aspects of cybersecurity. Chief Information Security Officers frequently make security decisions in high-pressure environments and deal with diverse individuals who may violate certain standards of behavior and ethics
Now that you have explored authentication, authorization, and access control in Steps 1, 2, and 3 and completed the simtray training in Step 7, you will direct your attention to the specific issues of your assigned organization. Identify particular issues that your organization has had, currently has, or could potentially have in terms of authentication, authorization, and access control. Next, assess the potential effectiveness of the access control models from Step 3 for your organization and scenario. Document your assessment, as you will refer to this information throughout this project.
Step 9: Research Industry Best Practices
In Steps 1, 2, and 3, you gathered information regarding authentication, authorization, and access control and had an opportunity to apply these concepts through training in Step 7. In Step 8, you thought about how to apply this knowledge to your own organization. In Steps 4, 5, and 6 you wrote reports on how psychology, anonymity, and privacy awareness impact cybersecurity. You are finally ready to meet with your peers in the industry to get a sense of current practices.
Your peer discussion can take various shapes. Research online articles and/or interview colleagues, friends, and acquaintances in different fields to gather the most current information of what various industries are doing to face their cybersecurity needs. The information and ideas that you obtain here will help you to formulate a recommendation and develop a job aid for the human resources (HR) managers that John requested. You will need to at least cover the items in the list below.
Use the information gathered here to assist in formulating your recommendations in Step 10.
Step 10: Formulate Recommendations
From the information that you have gathered throughout this project, formulate a recommendation for authentication, authorization, and access control. If you determine that your organization needs no changes in these areas, explain your position and what your leadership (and you, as CISO) will continue to monitor to ensure that your security standards are commensurate with expectations. Make sure that you consider the needs of restricting data from department to department as appropriate, protecting the organization’s HR data from outside and inside threats in general and allowing for employees to access the data they need while offsite. Also consider the human aspects of cybersecurity from Steps 4, 5, 6, and 7. Include a recommendation for an ongoing risk management strategy. You will include your recommendations in your Implementation Guidance Presentation in Step 12.
Your recommendation must meet the following criteria:
Step 11: Develop a Job Aid
Now that you have formulated your recommendation for authentication, authorization, and access control in Step 10, you are ready to begin developing a job aid that the HR managers can take to their departments after the presentation. This job aid will empower the HR managers to educate their staff on the topics of authentication, authorization, and access control in a simple and effective way to improve the security of their systems. The job aid will be distributed after the presentation.
Develop a short (two-to-three page) job aid which explains the differences between authentication, authorization, and access control using common-sense examples to help the reader understand the differences and the importance of each in protecting the organization’s information. The job aid should address all of the items listed below.
Step 12: Implementation Guidance Presentation
In response to the request from the CTO and VP of HR, you will develop a presentation for HR management which discusses how to limit access to specific types of data and protect vulnerable data from outside threats. You will explain the lineage of data, data ownership, and data-access related authentication, authorization, and access control. You will also take this opportunity to educate on the basic principles of data/network access control and to advocate for stronger access controls. You will develop an 18-20 slide presentation that clearly explains the principles of authentication, authorization, and access control, examines various models, and recommends a strategy for your organization. You will use the information that you have gathered in Steps 1 through 9. Make sure to include the following:
