Your boss wants you to draft a two- to three-page vulnerability process and assessment memorandum addressing the main points of a VM process for Mercury USA. You will cover the main elements of a vulnerability management process, tailored to Mercury USA’s business in the transportation sector, evaluate the OpenVAS scanning tool, and provide recommendations for mitigating the vulnerabilities found within the OpenVAS report.

The third-party pen tester used the free tool Open Vulnerability Assessment Scanner (OpenVAS) to scan Mercury USA’s network. Review the report from the OpenVAS Scan.

As you review the scan, consider some important points from Remediation:

• Priority
• Difficulty of implementation
• Communication/change control
• Inhibitors to remediation
  • MOUs
  • SLAs
  • Business process interruption
  • Degrading functionality

A three-tier web application architecture has been generically defined as the presentation, business logic, and data storage tiers. However, Amazon Web Services defines the three-tier web application architecture as the web, application, and storage/database tiers.

Write a paper comparing the generic three-tier web application architecture to that applied by Amazon Web Services.

Apply APA Edition 6 formatting.

Use at least three properly documented references (do NOT use wikis).

Correctly cite your references using APA Edition 6 formatting.Your paper should be at least 500 words in length using good grammar.

DEFINITION: a brief definition of the key term followed by the APA reference for the term; this does not count in the word requirement.

SUMMARY: Summarize the article in your own words- this should be in the 150-200 word range. Be sure to note the article’s author, note their credentials and why we should put any weight behind his/her opinions, research or findings regarding the key term.

ANALYSIS: Using 300-350 words, write a brief analysis, in your own words of how the article relates to the selected chapter Key Term. An analysis is not rehashing what was already stated in the article, but the opportunity for you to add value by sharing your experiences, thoughts and opinions. This is the most important part of the assignment.
