password recommendations

Learn About creating good password security.

An IT Security consultant has made three primary recommendations regarding passwords:

  1. Prohibit guessable passwords
    • such as common names, real words, numbers only
    • require special characters and a mix of caps, lower case and numbers in passwords
  2. Reauthenticate before changing passwords
    • user must enter old pw before creating new one
  3. Make authenticators unforgeable 
    • do not allow email or user ID as password

Using WORD, write a brief paper of 300 words explaining each of these security recommendations.  Do you agree or disagree with these recommendations. Would you change, add or delete any of these?  Add additional criteria as you see necessary.

Wk 5 – Apply: Corporate Ethics Portfolio

 

The corporate Board of Directors has asked you to provide a portfolio of your research into the expansion of the company into the country you presented on in Wk 4.

Include an overall corporate code of ethics based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS, and ISC(2). Include the following in your portfolio:

  • Based on the ethical challenges identified in Week 4, choose and depict 2 risks to the corporation related to each challenge in a 1-page table using either Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or Excel.
  • A 1- to 2-page corporate code of ethics using Microsoft Word based on your review of professional associations, such as IEEE, ACM, SANS, ISACA, ASIS, and ISC(2), and the ethical challenges identified
  • A 1- to 2-page concise synopsis of classical ethical theories
  • A 1- to 2-page process to logically evaluate ethical dilemmas as they arise with the expansion of the company into the country you have chosen. Ensure that the process reflects the code of ethics you provide; for example, your process could start with identifying which part of the code applies to a particular new dilemma and move through assessing the various choices you could make along with any resulting consequences. The end goal is to help your corporation manage complex ethical questions with a variety of stakeholders.
