Question: An introduction section which provides a brief introduction to the company and the information / information technology risks that it faces (you may reuse some of your narrative from Project #1 and/or Project #2). Your introduction should include a brief overview of the company's business operations. Follow this with a description of the purpose and contents of this Risk Mitigation Strategy deliverable.
A separate analysis section in which you present your Risk Profile. Start with a summary of your Risk Profile. You may reuse your introductory paragraph from Project #2 (revise if necessary) where you explained your risk profile (what information is contained in the table and what sources were used to obtain this information). Include a description of the process and documents used to construct the Risk Profile. Explain the benefits of using a risk profile to help manage risk. The citations and named documents in this paragraph will serve as citations and attributions for the contents of Table #1 (bring Table #1 Risk Profile forward from Project #2 and update if needed). Place Table #1 at the end of this section.
A separate analysis section (Security Controls Profile) in which you present your Security Controls Profile. Provide an introductory paragraph that explains the security controls profile, e.g., what information is contained in the table and what sources were used to obtain this information. Describe the process and documents used to construct the Security Controls Profile.
A separate section (Risk Mitigation Strategy) in which you present a high-level strategy for implementing the risk mitigations (security controls) presented earlier in this deliverable. This section should include a summary of the business problem (reduce risks related to information and IT systems and infrastructures), the general types of risks to be mitigated (focus on the CIA triad and summarize the risks you previously identified), the benefits of implementing security controls listed in your Security Controls Profile, and the policy, processes, and technical solutions being recommended for implementation (aligned to your Security Controls Profile).
A separate Recommendations and Conclusions section which provides a summary of the information contained in this deliverable and presents your concluding statements regarding the business need and business benefits which support implementing your Risk Mitigation Strategy and the allocation of resources by the company.
Additional Information
Your 8 to 10 page deliverable should be professional in appearance with consistent use of fonts, font sizes, colors, margins, etc. You should use headings and sub-headings to organize your paper. Use headings which correspond to the content rows in the rubric - this will make it easier for your instructor to find required content elements and will help you ensure that you have covered all required sections and content in your paper.
The stated page length is a recommendation based upon the content requirements of the assignment. All pages submitted will be graded but, for the highest grades, your work must be clear, concise, and accurate. Exceeding the recommended length will not necessarily result in a higher grade. Shorter submissions may not fully meet the content requirements resulting in a lower grade.
