The Risk Management Operations

This case study, written in 2009 is not the only case where a major data breach has occurred within organizations. In the late 2011 Sony’s PlayStation Network (PSN) was breached impacting up to 77 million user’s accounts including data on names, address and possibly credit card details. In late 2013 Target had a cyber-attack that compromised a large quantity of its data and had 110 million accounts compromised. Finally in September 2014 Apple had their iCloud server breached by hacking that compromised all the users of the online server. These occurrences still have some unanswered questions and several experts have yet to decipher the actual reason as to why the security breach occurred.

The data breaches at Target, Home Depot are reminders to CIOs of how deadly social engineering can be. CIO’s and CSO’s realize the dangers of security problems on a massive scale. These are some deliberate security breaches that happen when an employee shares a password or loses a mobile device. An employee might access a website at work that loads malware onto his PC, which then spreads throughout the corporate network. In other cases, security breaches occur when a disgruntled employee leaves the company and takes with him valuable intellectual property that belongs to the company.

Information technology can be very costly, and it is imperative for organizations not to overspend when it comes to their IT budget. However, it is vital for organizations to understand the risks associated with information technology. As we saw in the TJX case, TJX’s senior management did not update their systems and had very little IT knowledge. This led to multiple risks involving several security breaches which could have been contained by improving their information systems more efficiently. It is not just developing and implementing information technology; it is also understanding risks and formulating solutions to issues associated with IT. In Adventures of an IT Leader, Barton faced many challenges when it came to the budget of IVK. He assumed full responsibility for all the risks associated with the technology used and the IT budget. When the power shut off at IVK, Barton was faced with many challenges including possible customer records compromised, IVK’s systems infected, and deciphering solutions to secure the system. Barton suggested that IVK shut down operations to build a new and secure system to ensure IVK’s systems could identify where the infection originated and repairing the system for future

1. What are three ways that research can be conducted for risk-related issues? For each way, briefly describe how it may be done.

Scenario: You are leading during the second day of the Self Reliant Camp in the Coffin Bay National Park. While exploring in the Pt. Whidbey Wilderness Area during lunchtime, one of the group was bitten by a snake just above the right ankle. They are complaining of pain and nausea, there are two puncture marks on the right foot.

Risk management is an important aspect to firefighting to ensure those risking their lives to save others are not placed in unnecessary danger. Firefighters place trust in their officers to ensure the best plan of action is being taken. Risk management decisions made by officers can have positive influence on an outcome, when those decisions are formulated through experience and complete understanding of the situation. Firefighters take on dangerous careers and deserve the utmost certainty from their officers.

The analysis of 2,260 breaches and more than 100,000 incidents at 67 organizations in 82 countries shows that organizations are still failing to address basic issues and well-known attack methods. The (DBIR, 2016) shows, for example, that nearly two-thirds of confirmed data breaches involved using weak, default or stolen passwords. Also shows that most attacks exploit known vulnerabilities that organizations have never patched, despite patches being available for months – or even years – with the top 10 known vulnerabilities accounting for 85% of successful exploit “Organizations should be investing in training to help employees know what they should and shouldn’t be doing, and

While all of these technologies have enabled exciting changes and opportunities for businesses, they have also created a unique set of challenges for business managers. Chief among all concerns about technology is the issue of information security. It seems to be almost a weekly occurrence to see a news article about yet another breach of security and loss of sensitive data. Many people will remember high profile data breaches from companies such as T.J Maxx, Boston Market, Sports Authority, and OfficeMax. In the case of T.J. Maxx, a data breach resulted in the loss of more than 45 million credit and debit card numbers. In many of these incidents, the root cause is a lack of adequate security practices within the company. The same technologies that enable managers can also be used against them. Because of this, businesses must take appropriate steps to ensure their data remains secure and their communications remain

One well accepted description of risk management is the following: risk management is a systematic approach to setting the best course of action under uncertainty by identifying, assessing, understanding, acting on and communicating risk issues. In order to apply risk management effectively, it is vital that a risk management culture be developed. The risk management culture supports the overall vision, mission and objectives of an organization. Limits and boundaries are established and communicated concerning what are acceptable risk practices and outcomes. Since risk management is directed at uncertainty related to future events and outcomes, it is

When organizations experience the computer-related disruption in the form of cyber-attacks and data breaches, it causes distrust among shareholders, stakeholders, employees, and consumers. This paper will provide a discussion of some the major effects and damage that organizations will face when financial sabotage has taken place. Also included are some of the known reasons why organizations experience these issues along with some preventative measures that may assist with marginalizing this type of subversion in the future.

Level 1: Ad Hoc is basic level, which the organizations do not realize the requirement of risk management, and has no systematic solution to deal with the risk. At this level, the project always deal the risk after it happened, which lead to weak situation in conducting the project.
