Cyber Security Question

Prompt

Apply your experience using threat models to describe a particular attack, and your understanding of cryptography to write a Cyber Defense and Emerging Trends paper. Be sure to integrate feedback from the Final Project Milestone into your submission.

You must address the critical elements listed below. The codes shown in brackets indicate the competency to which each critical element is aligned.

I. Personnel or Human Factor Trend

Select a personnel or human factor trend and discuss the following critical elements:

A. Describe how the trend or strategy provides protection to an organization. [CYB-250-01]

B. Defend the trend as a credible solution based on your analysis of the threat model for the scenario. [CYB-250-01]

C. Describe the security risks and rewards associated with the trend. [CYB-250-02]

D. Analyze how an emerging personnel or human factor trend is affecting the cybersecurity landscape. In your response,

detail the impact this trend has on existing security strategies, technologies, or policies. [CYB-250-02]
