Cybersecurity part 2 | Information Systems homework help
[ad_1]
Write an analysis of the identified systems, networks, and data by addressing the following points in 400–500 words, with respect to Sony organization.
● What types of critical systems, networks, and data would you expect constitute Sony’s information infrastructure? Provide a brief description of these types of assets, and where relevant, the roles that these assets play in the organization. Consider conducting further research online, beyond the scope of the provided case study, to aid your answer.
● Which of these critical assets do you think are the most essential to the organization’s ability to accomplish its mission? Explain why.
● Do you think that the 2014 attack against Sony primarily targeted systems, networks, data, or a combination of all three?
Please note that your answers to the Sony case study will be assessed according to the sound reasoning you have provided for your interpretation of the organization’s critical assets. In this regard, less emphasis should be placed on the accuracy of Sony’s business details, but rather on your justification of what assets you believe are essential to the organization, and their associated vulnerabilities.
