In this day and age, data breaches have increased in quantity and intensity. Therefore, it is essential that the cybersecurity professional assess situations which could threaten the security of an organization’s intellectual property.
Research a data breach, ransomware, or data exfiltration attack that has occurred within the last six months that successfully compromised an organization. Write a 500-750-word summary that addresses the following:
Describe in detail how the attacker made the breach, was able to get in and out of the system, and the threat vector.
Examine and explain the effects of the attack on the various stakeholders. Include non-technical elements of the entire organization (e.g., public relations, marketing, and/or sales).
Describe ethical practices related to data and system security supported by a Christian worldview perspective. Include the ethical practices the organization could have implemented, both prior to and after the attack.
Support your summary with a minimum of three resources.
