Assignment
Security Assignmentfor an enterprise must be incorporated into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) in order to be a secure, integrated process. Testing of selected security controls ensures that applications meet business requirements, function as planned, and protect associated data securely from attack. A security assessment of the targeted environment identifies vulnerabilities that may cause a security breach and specifies the security controls that mitigate the vulnerabilities. Refer to NIST SP 800-53 rev 4 for identification of the eighteen candidate security control families and associated security controls.
Choose five distinct security control families as specified in SP 800-53 rev 4, click on the chosen familites, and create a spreadsheet that identifies the following criteria for each family:
• Control ID
• Control Name
• Vulnerability
Provide a short paragraph for each family describing the testing procedure that will mitigate the vulnerability.
Example:
Family - Identification and Authentication
Control ID - IA-2
Control Name - Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users)
Vulnerability - Illegal user access.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
