Implement a security framework to identify and close gaps between an organization’s current cybersecurity status and its target (future) cybersecurity status. Make sure to align with an appropriate regulation (PCI DSS).

Develop a report that addresses the following:

Organizational Objectives and Priorities

Current Framework Compliance Status: Describe the current cybersecurity environment, such as processes, information, and systems directly involved in the delivery of services.

Describe the current risk management practices, threat environment, legal and regulatory requirements, business/mission objectives, and organizational constraints using the framework identified. Include a diagram related to the common workflow of information and decisions at the major levels within the organization.

Future Cybersecurity Policy Implementations: Describe the critical cybersecurity needs that should be in place to ensure compliance with the appropriate regulation (PCI DSS) and then prioritize organizational efforts, business needs, and outcomes.

Operational Compliance and Risk Assessment

Cybersecurity Risk Assessment: Describe the likelihood of risks occurring and the resulting impact. Identify threats to, and vulnerabilities of, those systems and assets. Express risks both internally and externally. Determine the acceptable level of risk (risk tolerance). Describe the response to the risk. Describe how identified risks are managed and resolved. Include an Organizational Risk Assessment Chart.

Privacy Risk Management: Describe how the business is integrating privacy laws and regulations, prioritizing, and measuring progress.

Compliance Gaps: Describe the type of audits that should be performed in order to keep a consistent measure of risk. Determine what type of gap analysis should be performed in order to properly identify the security elements and variables within the environment that pose the most risk. Formulate a cybersecurity governance strategy that establishes mitigation plans to achieve security objectives.

Web Portal Diagram: Create a web portal data flow diagram of the hypothetical organization’s operational environment using Visio or similar diagramming software. Within the web portal data flow diagram, students will show how the web portal is compliant.

The web portal data flow diagram must:

a) Display the organization’s technical requirements (related and unrelated applications, services, and links);
b) display the compliance of associated servers, routers, access-control components, data storage, internal and external data communication, data backup, e-mail servers, and so forth
c) identify related systems and assets, regulatory requirements, and overall risk approach
d) demonstrate each IT task to the next as aligned to regulations/compliance (e.g., start with the user logging in, and then go through each step and how it is validated.

RUBRIC

Excellent Quality

95-100%

Introduction

45-41 points

The context and relevance of the issue, as well as a clear description of the study aim, are presented. The history of searches is discussed.

Literature Support

91-84 points

The context and relevance of the issue, as well as a clear description of the study aim, are presented. The history of searches is discussed.

Methodology

58-53 points

With titles for each slide as well as bulleted sections to group relevant information as required, the content is well-organized. Excellent use of typeface, color, images, effects, and so on to improve readability and presenting content. The minimum length criterion of 10 slides/pages is reached.

Average Score

50-85%

40-38 points

More depth/information is required for the context and importance, otherwise the study detail will be unclear. There is no search history information supplied.

83-76 points

There is a review of important theoretical literature, however there is limited integration of research into problem-related ideas. The review is just partly focused and arranged. There is research that both supports and opposes. A summary of the material given is provided. The conclusion may or may not include a biblical integration.

52-49 points

The content is somewhat ordered, but there is no discernible organization. The use of typeface, color, graphics, effects, and so on may sometimes distract from the presenting substance. It is possible that the length criteria will not be reached.

Poor Quality

0-45%

37-1 points

The context and/or importance are lacking. There is no search history information supplied.

75-1 points

There has been an examination of relevant theoretical literature, but still no research concerning problem-related concepts has been synthesized. The review is just somewhat focused and organized. The provided overview of content does not include any supporting or opposing research. The conclusion has no scriptural references.

48-1 points

There is no logical or apparent organizational structure. There is no discernible logical sequence. The use of typeface, color, graphics, effects, and so on often detracts from the presenting substance. It is possible that the length criteria will not be reached.
